ZABBIX,NAGIOS,ONEAPM Servers Installation Deployment

How to quickly implement monitoring of Linux servers?

Almost all developers who have done server monitoring know that Zabbix and Nagios are open source solutions that provide system monitoring and network monitoring capabilities, and are more experienced. Not long ago, this market ushered in a new member of the ONEAPM servers--local server monitoring field of the rising star.

OneAPM Servers is a commercial-grade solution, but like two veteran players, it's completely free. Today, we compare the installation deployment process of these 3 monitoring software for how to quickly implement Linux server monitoring:

One, Nagios monitoring Linux server

Nagios is an open-source, free network monitoring tool that effectively monitors Windows, Linux and Unix host status, network settings such as switch routers, printers, and more. Of course, if you want to install a remote Linux server, Nagios needs to install the following components:

Nagios: Main program

Nagios: Plugins

Nrpe: Monitoring the required plugins for Linux hosts

You need to establish Nagios users and groups before you install.

Installing Nagios

You need to unzip the downloaded Nagios main program and compile it on the Linux machine. After compiling, make sure that the following subdirectories are present in the/usr/local/nagios directory, and that their owner is the Nagios user and group.

bin  etc  include  libexec  share  

Configure Apache

The Yum-loaded Apache itself does not require much configuration, and the make install-webconf during Nagios's compilation is the configuration file that generates nagios.conf under/etc/httpd/conf.d/. will automatically help you configure the Nagios portion of Apache.
However, Apache's running users and groups must also be configured for Nagios.

You also need to configure the Nagios directory with user permissions to ensure that authorized users can access the Nagios page.

Installing Nrpe

After compiling the downloaded Nrpe, configure the /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg server IP to be monitored in the file, /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/commands.cfg configure the Check_nrpe command to get the data from the monitored host.

Configuring the monitored side

Install Nagios-plugin and Nrpe on the monitored Linux servers, and then /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg allow the Nagios server host to access this machine resource.

second, Zabbix monitoring Linux server

Zabbix is also an enterprise-class open source solution that provides distributed system monitoring and network monitoring capabilities based on a WEB interface. In contrast, Zabbix's installation deployment is much simpler than Nagios, which requires the deployment of the following three components:

Server: Refers to the installation of Zabbix service servers, is the most core components, mainly installed on the Linux system, the use of MySQL storage monitoring data. You can independently monitor the service status of a remote server, or you can use it with the Zabbix Agent to passively accept the data it sends.

Agent: Refers to the Zabbix agent installed on the monitored device, and the data on the monitored device is collected, collated and presented by the unified upload to the server side.

Installation Configuration MySQL

After the MySQL database is installed, the Zabbix database needs to be built:

MySQL>create database zabbix;  MySQL>use zabbix;  MySQL>source /tmp/zabbix-1.1.6/create/mysql/schema.sql  MySQL>source /tmp/zabbix-1.1.6/create/data/data.sql  MySQL>source /tmp/zabbix-1.1.6/create/data/images.sql  

Installation Configuration Zabbix

Unzip, after compiling the downloaded Zabbix package, copy the configuration file misc/conf/*.conf to the /etc/zabbix directory and copy the control file to the misc/init.d/redhat/*ctl Zabbix master directory /bin .

If the server side, need to modify /etc/zabbix in zabbix_server.conf , zabbix_trapper.conf two files, modify the path, IP, port, database and other information.

If the agent side, you need to modify the /etc/zabbix zabbix_agent.conf zabbix_agentd.conf two files, configure the server IP, port and other information.

After that, you can start zabbix_agentd_ctl zabbix_suckerd_ctl the Server by starting the agent.

Install the WEB environment

Finally, you need to configure the Web script environment on the Server side, copy the frontends/php directory's script to the Web file directory, and modify include/db.inc.php the database connection information in.

This will allow you to see the list of servers:

Third, OneAPM Servers monitoring Linux Server

Finally, we should look at this "rising Star" performance. OneAPM Servers is a leading enterprise in the field of application performance management OneAPM server monitoring products, through the observation and analysis of key system parameters, including CPU utilization, physical memory, network activity, process, disk utilization and capacity, etc., to show the current server health status.

1. Sign in to OneAPM account, click "Server Monitoring" in the menu bar, select "Add Server" in the upper right corner of the page.

2. After entering the installation page, download the OneAPM Servers installation package

3. Installing OneAPM Servers

4. Run OneAPM Servers

Wait 5 minutes for your application to send application performance data to OneAPM and start using OneAPM app performance management. It is not hard to believe that the OneAPM Servers is much simpler than Zabbix and Nagios in the installation deployment.

In addition, you can use OneAPM application Monitoring Application Insight, browser-side monitoring browser insight, mobile application monitoring and other products to achieve a one-stop-all-round solution to achieve multi-dimensional comprehensive monitoring.
