Add UNIX rstatd sources

To capture resource monitoring data from UNIX rstatd, configure the data source. UNIX rstatd is bundled with most Linux distributions.

To collect resource monitoring data from UNIX rstatd, the portmapper service must be enabled on the host computer. To determine whether the portmapper service is enabled, set the following on the command line of the host computer:

rpcinfo -p localhost The portmapper service is listed in the output of the rpcinfo command. If it is not, contact the system administrator for help with installing or configuring the portmapper service.

  1. On the Resource page, select the type of data to capture. The tree view shows all available performance counters, with a default set of counters preselected. To see all available counters, clear the check box...

      Show only selected counters

    Be selective; monitoring all possible resource data requires substantial amounts of memory. Hold your mouse pointer over a counter to see details about what that counter measures.

  2. Configure connection information and time intervals on the Options page.

    1. Set the Connection information if needed. Typically, you need to change this information only if a firewall is blocking the default port.

    2. Type the Polling Interval in seconds, for collecting resource data. For example, if you accept the default of 5 seconds, counter information will be collected at 5-second intervals from the specified host during the schedule run.

    3. Type the Timeout Interval in seconds. If the resource monitoring host does not respond within this amount of time during a schedule run, an error is logged.
