# analysis.cfg - configuration file for clients reporting to Xymon # # This file is used by the xymond_client module, when it builds the # cpu, disk, files, memory, msgs and procs status messages from the # information reported by clients running on the monitored systems. # # This file must be installed on the Xymon server - client installations # do not need this file. # # The file defines a series of rules: # UP : Changes the "cpu" status when the system has rebooted recently, # or when it has been running for too long. # LOAD : Changes the "cpu" status according to the system load. # CLOCK : Changes the "cpu" status if the client system clock is # not synchronized with the clock of the Xymon server. # DISK : Changes the "disk" status, depending on the amount of space # used of filesystems. # MEMPHYS: Changes the "memory" status, based on the percentage of real # memory used. # MEMACT : Changes the "memory" status, based on the percentage of "actual" # memory used. Note: Not all systems report an "actual" value. # MEMSWAP: Changes the "memory" status, based on the percentage of swap # space used. # PROC : Changes the "procs" status according to which processes were found # in the "ps" listing from the client. # LOG : Changes the "msgs" status according to entries in text-based logfiles. # Note: The "client-local.cfg" file controls which logfiles the client will report. # FILE : Changes the "files" status according to meta-data for files. # Note: The "client-local.cfg" file controls which files the client will report. # DIR : Changes the "files" status according to the size of a directory. # Note: The "client-local.cfg" file controls which directories the client will report. # PORT : Changes the "ports" status according to which tcp ports were found # in the "netstat" listing from the client. # DEFAULT: Set the default values that apply if no other rules match. # # All rules can be qualified so they apply only to certain hosts, or on certain # times of the day (see below). # # Each type of rule takes a number of parameters: # UP bootlimit toolonglimit # The cpu status goes yellow if the system has been up for less than # "bootlimit" time, or longer than "toolonglimit". The time is in # minutes, or you can add h/d/w for hours/days/weeks - eg. "2h" for # two hours, or "4w" for 4 weeks. # Defaults: bootlimit=1h, toolonglimit=-1 (infinite). # # LOAD warnlevel paniclevel # If the system load exceeds "warnlevel" or "paniclevel", the "cpu" # status will go yellow or red, respectively. These are decimal # numbers. # Defaults: warnlevel=5.0, paniclevel=10.0 # # CLOCK maximum-offset # If the system clock of the client differs from that of the Xymon # server by more than "maximum-offset" seconds, then the CPU status # column will go yellow. Note that the accuracy of this test is limited, # since it is affected by the time it takes a client status report to # go from the client to the Xymon server and be processed. You should # therefore allow for a few seconds (5-10) of slack when you define # your max. offset. # It is not wise to use this test, unless your servers are synchronized # to a common clock, e.g. through NTP. # # DISK filesystem warnlevel paniclevel # DISK filesystem IGNORE # If the utilization of "filesystem" is reported to exceed "warnlevel" # or "paniclevel", the "disk" status will go yellow or red, respectively. # "warnlevel" and "paniclevel" are either the percentage used, or the # space available as reported by the local "df" command on the host. # For the latter type of check, the "warnlevel" must be followed by the # letter "U", e.g. "1024U". # The special keyword "IGNORE" causes this filesystem to be ignored # completely, i.e. it will not appear in the "disk" status column and # it will not be tracked in a graph. This is useful for e.g. removable # devices, backup-disks and similar hardware. # "filesystem" is the mount-point where the filesystem is mounted, e.g. # "/usr" or "/home". A filesystem-name that begins with "%" is interpreted # as a Perl-compatible regular expression; e.g. "%^/oracle.*/" will match # any filesystem whose mountpoint begins with "/oracle". # Defaults: warnlevel=90%, paniclevel=95% # # MEMPHYS warnlevel paniclevel # MEMACT warnlevel paniclevel # MEMSWAP warnlevel paniclevel # If the memory utilization exceeds the "warnlevel" or "paniclevel", the # "memory" status will change to yellow or red, respectively. # Note: The words "PHYS", "ACT" and "SWAP" are also recognized. # Defaults: MEMPHYS warnlevel=100 paniclevel=101 (i.e. it will never go red) # MEMSWAP warnlevel=50 paniclevel=80 # MEMACT warnlevel=90 paniclevel=97 # # PROC processname minimumcount maximumcount color [TRACK=id] [TEXT=displaytext] # The "ps" listing sent by the client will be scanned for how many # processes containing "processname" are running, and this is then # matched against the min/max settings defined here. If the running # count is outside the thresholds, the color of the "procs" status # changes to "color". # To check for a process that must NOT be running: Set minimum and # maximum to 0. # # "processname" can be a simple string, in which case this string must # show up in the "ps" listing as a command. The scanner will find # a ps-listing of e.g. "/usr/sbin/cron" if you only specify "processname" # as "cron". # "processname" can also be a Perl-compatiable regular expression, e.g. # "%java.*inst[0123]" can be used to find entries in the ps-listing for # "java -Xmx512m inst2" and "java -Xmx256 inst3". In that case, # "processname" must begin with "%" followed by the reg.expression. # If "processname" contains whitespace (blanks or TAB), you must enclose # the full string in double quotes - including the "%" if you use regular # expression matching. E.g. # PROC "%xymond_channel --channel=data.*xymond_rrd" 1 1 yellow # or # PROC "java -DCLASSPATH=/opt/java/lib" 2 5 # # You can have multiple "PROC" entries for the same host, all of the # checks are merged into the "procs" status and the most severe # check defines the color of the status. # # The TRACK=id option causes the number of processes found to be recorded # in an RRD file, with "id" as part of the filename. This graph will then # appear on the "procs" page as well as on the "trends" page. Note that # "id" must be unique among the processes tracked for each host. # # The TEXT=displaytext option affects how the process appears on the # "procs" status page. By default, the process is listed with the # "processname" as identification, but if this is a regular expression # it may be a bit difficult to understand. You can then use e.g. # "TEXT=Apache" to make these processes appear with the name "Apache" # instead. # # Defaults: mincount=1, maxcount=-1 (unlimited), color="red". # Note: No processes are checked by default. # # Example: Check that "cron" is running: # PROC cron # Example: Check that at least 5 "httpd" processes are running, but # not more than 20: # PROC httpd 5 20 # # LOG filename match-pattern [COLOR=color] [IGNORE=ignore-pattern] [TEXT=displaytext] # In the "client-local.cfg" file, you can list any number of files # that the client will collect log data from. These are sent to the # Xymon server together with the other client data, and you can then # choose how to analyze the log data with LOG entries. # # ************ IMPORTANT *************** # To monitor a logfile, you *MUST* configure both client-local.cfg # and analysis.cfg. If you configure only the client-local.cfg # file, the client will collect the log data and you can view it in # the "client data" display, but it will not affect the color of the # "msgs" status. On the other hand, if you configure only the # analysis.cfg file, then there will be no log data to inspect, # and you will not see any updates of the "msgs" status either. # # "filename" is a filename or pattern. The set of files reported by # the client is matched against "filename", and if they match then # this LOG entry is processed against the data from a file. # # "match-pattern": The log data is matched against this pattern. If # there is a match, this log file causes a status change to "color". # # "ignore-pattern": The log data that matched "match-pattern" is also # matched against "ignore-pattern". If the data matches the "ignore-pattern", # this line of data does not affect the status color. In other words, # the "ignore-pattern" can be used to refine the strings which cause # a match. # Note: The "ignore-pattern" is optional. # # "color": The color which this match will trigger. # Note: "color" is optional, if omitted then "red" will be used. # # Example: Go yellow if the text "WARNING" shows up in any logfile. # LOG %.* WARNING COLOR=yellow # # Example: Go red if the text "I/O error" or "read error" appears. # LOG %/var/(adm|log)/messages %(I/O|read).error COLOR=red # # FILE filename [color] [things to check] [TRACK] # NB: The files you wish to monitor must be listed in a "file:..." # entry in the client-local.cfg file, in order for the client to # report any data about them. # # "filename" is a filename or pattern. The set of files reported by # the client is matched against "filename", and if they match then # this FILE entry is processed against the data from that file. # # [things to check] can be one or more of the following: # - "NOEXIST" triggers a warning if the file exists. By default, # a warning is triggered for files that have a FILE entry, but # which do not exist. # - "TYPE=type" where "type" is one of "file", "dir", "char", "block", # "fifo", or "socket". Triggers warning if the file is not of the # specified type. # - "OWNERID=owner" and "GROUPID=group" triggers a warning if the owner # or group does not match what is listed here. "owner" and "group" is # specified either with the numeric uid/gid, or the user/group name. # - "MODE=mode" triggers a warning if the file permissions are not # as listed. "mode" is written in the standard octal notation, e.g. # "644" for the rw-r--r-- permissions. # - "SIZE<max.size" and "SIZE>min.size" triggers a warning it the file # size is greater than "max.size" or less than "min.size", respectively. # You can append "K" (KB), "M" (MB), "G" (GB) or "T" (TB) to the size. # If there is no such modifier, KB is assumed. # E.g. to warn if a file grows larger than 1MB (1024 KB): "SIZE<1M". # - "SIZE=size" triggers a warning it the file size is not what is listed. # - "MTIME>min.mtime" and "MTIME<max.mtime" checks how long ago the file # was last modified (in seconds). E.g. to check if a file was updated # within the past 10 minutes (600 seconds): "MTIME<600". Or to check # that a file has NOT been updated in the past 24 hours: "MTIME>86400". # - "MTIME=timestamp" checks if a file was last modified at "timestamp". # "timestamp" is a unix epoch time (seconds since midnight Jan 1 1970 UTC). # - "CTIME>min.ctime", "CTIME<max.ctime", "CTIME=timestamp" acts as the # mtime checks, but for the ctime timestamp (when the files' directory # entry was last changed, eg. by chown, chgrp or chmod). # - "MD5=md5sum", "SHA1=sha1sum", "RMD160=rmd160sum" trigger a warning # if the file checksum using the MD5, SHA1 or RMD160 message digest # algorithms do not match the one configured here. Note: The "file" # entry in the client-local.cfg file must specify which algorithm to use. # # "TRACK" causes the size of this file to be tracked in an RRD file, and # shown on the graph on the "files" display. # # Example: Check that the /var/log/messages file is not empty and was updated # within the past 10 minutes, and go yellow if either fails: # FILE /var/log/messages SIZE>0 MTIME<600 yellow # # Example: Check the timestamp, size and SHA-1 hash of the /bin/sh program: # FILE /bin/sh MTIME=1128514608 SIZE=645140 SHA1=5bd81afecf0eb93849a2fd9df54e8bcbe3fefd72 # # DIR directory [color] [SIZE<maxsize] [SIZE>minsize] [TRACK] # NB: The directories you wish to monitor must be listed in a "dir:..." # entry in the client-local.cfg file, in order for the client to # report any data about them. # # "directory" is a filename or pattern. The set of directories reported by # the client is matched against "directory", and if they match then # this DIR entry is processed against the data for that directory. # # "SIZE<maxsize" and "SIZE>minsize" defines the size limits that the # directory must stay within. If it goes outside these limits, a warning # will trigger. Note the Xymon uses the raw number reported by the # local "du" command on the client. This is commonly KB, but it may be # disk blocks which are often 512 bytes. # # "TRACK" causes the size of this directory to be tracked in an RRD file, # and shown on the graph on the "files" display. # # PORT [LOCAL=addr] [EXLOCAL=addr] [REMOTE=addr] [EXREMOTE=addr] [STATE=state] [EXSTATE=state] [MIN=mincount] [MAX=maxcount] [COLOR=color] [TRACK=id] [TEXT=displaytext] # The "netstat" listing sent by the client will be scanned for how many # sockets match the criteria listed. # "addr" is a (partial) address specification in the format used on # the output from netstat. This is typically "10.0.0.1:80" for the IP # 10.0.0.1, port 80. Or "*:80" for any local address, port 80. # NB: The Xymon clients normally report only the numeric data for # IP-adresses and port-numbers, so you must specify the port # number (e.g. "80") instead of the service name ("www"). # "state" causes only the sockets in the specified state to be included; # it is usually LISTEN or ESTABLISHED. # The socket count is then matched against the min/max settings defined # here. If the count is outside the thresholds, the color of the "ports" # status changes to "color". # To check for a socket that must NOT exist: Set minimum and # maximum to 0. # # "addr" and "state" can be a simple strings, in which case these string must # show up in the "netstat" at the appropriate column. # "addr" and "state" can also be a Perl-compatiable regular expression, e.g. # "LOCAL=%(:80|:443)" can be used to find entries in the netstat local port for # both http (port 80) and https (port 443). In that case, portname or state must # begin with "%" followed by the reg.expression. # # The TRACK=id option causes the number of sockets found to be recorded # in an RRD file, with "id" as part of the filename. This graph will then # appear on the "ports" page as well as on the "trends" page. Note that # "id" must be unique among the ports tracked for each host. # # The TEXT=displaytext option affects how the port appears on the # "ports" status page. By default, the port is listed with the # local/remote/state rules as identification, but this may be somewhat # difficult to understand. You can then use e.g. "TEXT=Secure Shell" to make # these ports appear with the name "Secure Shell" instead. # # Defaults: state="LISTEN", mincount=1, maxcount=-1 (unlimited), color="red". # Note: No ports are checked by default. # # Example: Check that there is someone listening on the https port: # PORT "LOCAL=%([.:]443)$" state=LISTEN TEXT=https # # Example: Check that at least 5 "ssh" connections are established, but # not more than 10; warn but do not error; graph the connection count: # PORT "LOCAL=%([.:]22)$" state=ESTABLISHED min=5 max=20 color=yellow TRACK=ssh "TEXT=SSH logins" # # Example: Check that ONLY ports 22, 80 and 443 are open for incoming connections: # PORT STATE=LISTEN LOCAL=%0.0.0.0[.:].* EXLOCAL=%[.:](22|80|443)$ MAX=0 "TEXT=Bad listeners" # # # To apply rules to specific hosts, you can use the "HOST=", "EXHOST=", "PAGE=" # "EXPAGE=", "CLASS=" or "EXCLASS=" qualifiers. (These act just as in the # alerts.cfg file). # # Hostnames are either a comma-separated list of hostnames (from the hosts.cfg file), # "*" to indicate "all hosts", or a Perl-compatible regular expression. # E.g. "HOST=dns.foo.com,www.foo.com" identifies two specific hosts; # "HOST=%www.*.foo.com EXHOST=www-test.foo.com" matches all hosts with a name # beginning with "www", except the "www-test" host. # "PAGE" and "EXPAGE" match the hostnames against the page on where they are # located in the hosts.cfg file, via the hosts' page/subpage/subparent # directives. This can be convenient to pick out all hosts on a specific page. # # Rules can be dependant on time-of-day, using the standard Xymon syntax # (the hosts.cfg(5) about the NKTIME parameter). E.g. "TIME=W:0800:2200" # applied to a rule will make this rule active only on week-days between # 8AM and 10PM. # # You can also associate a GROUP id with a rule. The group-id is passed to # the alert module, which can then use it to control who gets an alert when # a failure occurs. E.g. the following associates the "httpd" process check # with the "web" group, and the "sshd" check with the "admins" group: # PROC httpd 5 GROUP=web # PROC sshd 1 GROUP=admins # In the alerts.cfg file, you could then have rules like # GROUP=web # MAIL webmaster@foo.com # GROUP=admins # MAIL root@foo.com # # Qualifiers must be placed after each rule, e.g. # LOAD 8.0 12.0 HOST=db.foo.com TIME=*:0800:1600 # # If you have multiple rules that you want to apply the same qualifiers to, # you can write the qualifiers *only* on one line, followed by the rules. E.g. # HOST=%db.*.foo.com TIME=W:0800:1600 # LOAD 8.0 12.0 # DISK /db 98 100 # PROC mysqld 1 # will apply the three rules to all of the "db" hosts on week-days between 8AM # and 4PM. This can be combined with per-rule qualifiers, in which case the # per-rule qualifier overrides the general qualifier; e.g. # HOST=%.*.foo.com # LOAD 7.0 12.0 HOST=bax.foo.com # LOAD 3.0 8.0 # will result in the load-limits being 7.0/12.0 for the "bax.foo.com" host, # and 3.0/8.0 for all other foo.com hosts. # # The special DEFAULT section can modify the built-in defaults - this must # be placed at the end of the file.
