Chapter 3 The Real-Time Monitoring Configuration Utility

Installing the CFG and CGI Files for Use by MRTG and RRDTool

(The exact details of working with Cron are outside the scope of this document.)

rtmcmd creates two crontab.txt sample files for Windows and for Linux/Unix setups in the destination directory. Use these files to configure Cron.

Note that for Unix/Linux systems, the periodic MRTG invocation command must be followed by an update permission command (chmod) for RRD files providing reading permissions to the web server. For the command details, see the crontab sample file created by the rtmcmd utility.

Note When using SELinux (which is a standard feature of Redhat Enterprise 4), several extra steps might be needed to ensure correct operation of the Apache server. A full discussion of this issue is beyond the scope of this document, but note the following command which would be useful in case SELinux is activated and the system log indicates that httpd encounters permission problems: chcon -R-h-t

httpd_sys_content_t <RTM directory>

Note that the polling done by MRTG creates a CPU load on both the workstation where MRTG is running, and on the SCE platform. Therefore, the following is recommend:

Polling period of once every 5 minutes

Maximum number of SCE platforms polled by a single workstation (assuming a Win2K machine, with Pentium 4, 3.2GHz CPU, and 1GB memory) is 10 SCE platforms

Files Update

The rtmcmd utility is used to create an updated set of MRTG configuration files and report CGI files when:

Adding a new SCE device to the RTM setup.

A change in the Service Configuration applied to some SCE devices should be reflected in the reports.

To update your RTM directory perform the following steps:

Step 1 Copy the newly created MRTG CFG files from the mrtg-cfg directory in the rtmcmd target directory to the mrtg-cfg directory within the RTM directory. The RTM directory is the same location as specified by the rtm_dir property in the user configuration file.

Step 2 Add a Cron task that invokes MRTG periodically (every 5 minutes) on these CFG files, by adding a task line to the crontab file. This operation is described in detail in Step 2 of the First Installation (on page 3-5) section.
