munin plugins for jboss monitoring

I grabbed the tomcat plugins from Ticket #74 for munin, specifically tomcat-plugins.tar.2.gz. I then made small changes to the URL and xml lines to work with our jboss install.

-my $URL      = exists $ENV{'url'}      ? $ENV{'url'}      : "http://%s:%s\@127.0.0.1:%d/manager/status?XML=true";
+my $URL      = exists $ENV{'url'}      ? $ENV{'url'}      : "http://%s:%s\@127.0.0.1:%d/status?XML=true";
-if($xml->{'connector'}->{'http'.$PORT}->{'requestInfo'}->{'bytesSent'}) {
-    print "volume.value " . $xml->{'connector'}->{'http'.$PORT}->{'requestInfo'}->{'bytesSent'} . "\n";
+if($xml->{'connector'}->{'http-0.0.0.0-'.$PORT}->{'requestInfo'}->{'bytesSent'}) {
+    print "volume.value " . $xml->{'connector'}->{'http-0.0.0.0-'.$PORT}->{'requestInfo'}->{'bytesSent'} . "\n";

Do this for each xml entry and you’ll be all set:

$ for file in `ls` ; do ./$file ; done
accesses.value 550
free.value 201360024
used.value 317947240
max.value 1037959168
busy.value 4
idle.value 5
volume.value 4574821

  • Nice post!
    Just a note though, when modifying default ROOT.war, use the following line instead:
    my $URL = exists $ENV{‘url’} ? $ENV{‘url’} : “http://%s:%s\@127.0.0.1:%d/web-console/status?XML=true”;

  • for file in *; do ./$file; done

    No need for `ls`
    :)

    at:
    my $xml = $xs->XMLin($response->content, %options);

    any idea ?
