My first stab a building a ZenPack.

The purpose of this ZenPack is to provide resource usage statistics related to the various Zenoss daemons running on hubs and/or collectors.  It provides only a performance template called Zenoss-Stats-ps under /Devices/Server/Linux.

Prerequisites:

• Install attached Perl script in /usr/local/bin/
• Updated Net-SNMPd's config file (usually /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf), adding:

  • pass .1.3.6.1.3.2 /usr/bin/perl /usr/local/bin/zenoss_stats_ps.pl

• Restart/reload Net-SNMPd (usually service snmpd reload)

Notes:

• Much of the Perl code was copied from other scripts found on the 'Net.  I make no ownership/copyright claims to this!
• Tested only on Zenoss 2.4.2 (source tarball) on openSUSE linux 10.3.
• File/directory locations may need to be altered to fit your environment.
• Security implications have not been vetted.  Are there potential issues with having Net-SNMP call an external Perl script?
• You do NOT need all daemons running on the remote server for this to work.  Daemons not running will simply show up as "nan".

Developers:

How can I get the script added to the ZenPack in such a way that it auto-installs it into $ZENHOME/libexec?
