this is my little mobot project.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
the concept is not to spend hundreds of hours to implement some massive
|
||
|
|
monitoring tool like nagios or something like this.
|
||
|
|
instead i want to use some simple message/notification scripts
|
||
|
|
which exactly tell me what i need to know.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
the first thing i have here is the df bot. it sends me a short jabber message
|
||
|
|
when one or more disks on the serving machine reaching a preconfigured threshold
|
||
|
|
(example: 90% disk usage).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
another tool i find really useful is the pingbot (ping.sh)
|
||
|
|
it works pretty much the same as the dfbot.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
feel free to use or improve this handy tools!

1. copy the scrip somewhere on your machine
|
||
|
|
you get the df.sh on gitorious.org
|
||
|
|
http://gitorious.org/sn/scripts/trees/master/mobots/df.sh
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. create the configfile
|
||
|
|
use the df.conf.sample to create a config and put this file anywhere on the same machine
|
||
|
|
http://gitorious.org/sn/scripts/trees/master/mobots/df.conf.sample
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. create a cronjob for it
|
||
|
|
add a line like this to your /etc/crontab
|
||
|
|
*/2 * * * * root /bin/bash --login /path/to/the/script/df.sh /path/to/configfile/df.conf >> /path/to/logfile/df.log
|
||
|
|
or (if you use the default configpath /etc/mobots)
|
||
|
|
*/5 * * * * root /bin/bash --login /path/to/script/df.sh >> /var/log/mobots/df.log
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
the logdirectory must exist
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
after this you have to restart your cron with something like
|
||
|
|
service cron restart
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
of course there are several ways to create a cronjob but this is probably the easiest way
|
||
