NAME

6       pmdasamba - Samba performance metrics domain agent (PMDA)
7

DESCRIPTION

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

INSTALLATION

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