Introduction

Ver. 17-11-2021

This plugin takes data from every active instance in your websphere environment.

Type: Agent plug-in

Compatibility matrix

Systems where it has been tested	CentOS 7, Fedora, AIX 7.2 , AIX 7.2
Systems where it should work	Any linux system

Prerequisites

Required :

• A websphere environment
• Have instances (application servers) running
• Have the PluginTools.pm module in a directory called PandoraFms
• Have Pandora FMS Data Server enabled
• Have the Pandora FMS Plugin Server enabled

Configuration

In the websphere environment, we must have the servers running, as this is what we are going to monitor.

Pandora_websphere.conf to send the monitoring data to your pandora machine.

wsadmin;<path wsadmin.sh>
jython;<path listservers.py>
user;wasadmin
password;wasadmin
mode;<tentacle>
tentacle_ip;<ip pandora>
tentacle_port;<tentacle port>

Example :

 

Plugin general parameters

Once the conf has been edited with the data that corresponds to our environment (your wsadmin path, pandora ip, tentacle port, etc.) we will execute the plugin in this way.

The most recommended is to put pandora_websphere.pl, pandora_websphere.conf and listservers.py in the same folder.

perl pandora_websphere.pl pandora_websphere.conf

* Remember that in the conf you must put well the path of your wsadmin, and of the jython script.

Example:

Configuration in PandoraFMS

pspz2 installation

You can install the plugin from servers > register plugin

On this page you can load the pspz2 file of the plug-in.

Manual installation

Go to servers > plugins:

Click on add plugin:

 

We put in name and the description that you prefer.

We put as command the execution with the path of the plugin:

/path pandora_websphere

Remember that the recommended path for the use of the server plugins is: /usr/share/pandora_server/util/plugin/

And in plugin parameters we will introduce the macro “_field1_”, to call its conf file.

Once this is done, click on “create”.

Agent configuration

Once this is done, the only thing left to do is to call it, so we will go to some agent's view and create an add-on module:

We will give it a name and in the section “plugin” we will put the one we have just configured.

Once this is done, click on create.

If the module is shown with 1, it means that it is running correctly.

Modules generated by the plugin

Once the plugin is executed as specified in "General plugin parameters" and editing pandora_websphere.conf as specified in "Configuration", an agent will be created for each websphere instance with the name of these and with the following modules:

Free memory

Heapsize

Id

Número de aplicaciones
