DataTAG Cluster Monitoring and info providers

 

Prerequisite:

Step-by-step instructions:

  1. replace the installed Glue-CE.schema with this extended one
  2. download and install this EDT monitoring RPM on each node of the cluster
  3. on each worker node :
    • edit /opt/edt/monitoring/etc/MSA.cfg and change the value "localhost" in the section:

    Transport
    TCP
    Server localhost

    with the hostname where the MDS GRIS is running

    • enable edt_fmon_agent with following commands

    /sbin/chkconfig --level 345 edt_fmon_agent on
    /etc/rc.d/init.d/edt_fmon_agent start

  4. on the node where the MDS GRIS is running:
    • enable edt_fmon_server with following commands

    /sbin/chkconfig --level 345 edt_fmon_server on
    /etc/rc.d/init.d/edt_fmon_server start

    • enable fmon2glue information provider

    edit the file containing the computing element information provider configuration (see note below) and add to the list of *args* of the glue-ce-all.pl info provider this option:

    -host-info-bin /opt/edt/monitoring/bin/fmon2glue

    (NOTE:

    for EDG, $EDG_LOCATION/info/mds/etc/testbed1-site-glue.ldif
    for VDT, $VDT_LOCATION/$MDS/etc/grid-info-resource-ldif.conf)

  5. restart globus-mds service

If everything is ok, with the following query you should get the list of monitored hosts:

ldapsearch -h GRIS_HOST_NAME -p 2135 -b "mds-vo-name=local,o=grid" -x "objectclass=GlueHost" GlueHostUniqueID
