How to install this plugin ?

This plugin has been created on Debian, if you use another Linux distribution the paths below may change.

the plugin in the following directory : Download

/usr/share/munin/plugins/

After that create a symbolic link like this :

sudo ln -sv /usr/share/munin/plugins/ezpublish_* /etc/munin/plugins

Restart munin-node :

sudo /etc/init.d/munin-node restart

After a few minutes you should see a new "eZ Publish" category in your munin pages

How to configure this plugin ?

In the munin configuration file :

/etc/munin/plugin-conf.d/munin-node

Paste the following lines :

[ezpublish_*]
env.dbusername root
env.dbpassword publish
env.dbname ezpublish_4_0
env.vardir /var/www/ezpublish/var/ezwebin_site
env.ezpublishcluster disabled (you can use 'enabled' if you use ezdbfilehandler)

For example if you have the following eZ Publish configuration

[DatabaseSettings]
[...]
Server=localhost
User=root
Password=publish
Database=ezpublish40
[...]

Then the munin configuration would look like :

[ezpublish]
env.dbusername root
env.dbpassword publish
env.dbname ezpublish40

Do not forget to restart munin-node after you update the configuration :

sudo /etc/init.d/munin-node restart

Configuring ezmunin per host

There is a nice post from Scott Frazer which explains how to configure ezmunin per host :

Do not apply changes to the code I already have integrated them.
