NAME

6       pmdasamba - Linux virtualisation performance metrics domain agent
7       (PMDA)
8

DESCRIPTION

10       pmdasamba is a Performance Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) which exports
11       metric values from Samba, a Windows SMB/CIFS server for UNIX.
12
13       In order for values to be made available by this PMDA, Samba must have
14       been built with profiling support (WITH_PROFILE in "smbd -b" output).
15       This PMDA dynamically enumerates much of its metric hierarchy, based on
16       the contents of "smbstatus --profile".
17
18       When the agent is installed (see below), the Install script will
19       attempt to enable Samba statistics gathering, using "smbcontrol
20       --profile".
21

INSTALLATION

23       If you want access to the names and values for the samba performance
24       metrics, do the following as root:
25
26               # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/samba
27               # ./Install
28
29       If you want to undo the installation, do the following as root:
30
31               # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/samba
32               # ./Remove
33
34       pmdasamba is launched by pmcd(1) and should never be executed directly.
35       The Install and Remove scripts notify pmcd(1) when the agent is
36       installed or removed.
