watchman under SmartOS

"A file watching service.
Purpose
Watchman exists to watch files and record when they actually change. It can also trigger actions (such as rebuilding assets) when matching files change."
https://github.com/facebook/watchman

You can find pkgsrc definitions, useful to build the package under SmartOS (pkgsrc on SmartOS - zone creation and basic builds) and a binary package to be installed using pkg_add

pkg_add watchman-2.9.1nb2.tgz

Install Baikal server on a SmartOS zone

Baïkal is a Lightweight CalDAV+CardDAV server. The home page is http://baikal-server.com/

Baïkal needs some PHP modules. I use Apache as web server.

pkgin in apache-2.4.6 ap24-php53-5.3.27
pkgin in php53-pdo-5.3.27
pkgin in php53-xmlrpc-5.3.27
pkgin in php53-pdo_sqlite-5.3.27 php53-pdo_mysql-5.3.27
pkgin in php53-dom-5.3.27

Now you must configure php.ini, adding the modules.


vi /opt/local/etc/php.ini

extension=xmlrpc.so
extension=pdo.so
extension=pdo_mysql.so
extension=pdo_sqlite.so
extension=mbstring.so
extension=dom.so

The rest is pretty simple, following the install guide.

SmartOS: purge pkgin

rm -rf /opt/local
rm -rf /var/db/pkgin

download old versions of SmartOS

MegaCLI on SmartOS

I'm working on a Dell R710 with PERC H700 controller.

# prtconf -v|grep -i raid
                        value='RAID controller'
                        value='MegaRAID SAS 2108 [Liberator]'

# prtconf -v|grep -i perc
                        value='PERC H700 Integrated'
...

Firts of all go to LSI website http://www.lsi.com/support/Pages/Download-Results.aspx and search by keyword "MegaCLI. Then download Latest MegaCLI (there is Solaris OS).

Unzip it and copy MegaCLI/MegaCli_Solaris/x86/MegaCli to your SmartOS global zone (under /opt/custom/bin for example).

Now edit it with vi (yes, with vi), search for mr_sas and change this word (the driver name) to dr_sas.

Without doing this the utility doesn't detect any controller.
i.e.

# ./MegaCli -adpCount                              

Controller Count: 0.

Exit Code: 0x00

Thanks to jacques, Nils and elijah on the smartos-discuss mailing list.

using send_nsca from SmartOS global zone

If you don't want to install pkgin in the global zone, but you want to use Nagios send_nsca command, this is how I did it.

Inside a zone install the nagios-nsca package.

pkgin in nagios-nsca-2.9.1nb2


From the global zone, cd to the zone zfs and copy these files in a place of your own.

cd /zones/<uuid>

cp opt/local/gcc47/x86_64-sun-solaris2.11/lib/amd64/libgcc_s.so.1 /opt/custom/nsca/

cp opt/local/gcc47/x86_64-sun-solaris2.11/lib/amd64/libgcc_s.so.1 /opt/custom/nsca/

cp opt/local/lib/libmcrypt.so.4 /opt/custom/nsca/


Create a configuration file

vi /opt/custom/nsca/send_nsca.cfg


Now set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable and run the command

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/custom/nsca; echo "host;passive_check;0;All seems to be OK" | /opt/custom/nsca/send_nsca -H nagios.ip -p 5667 -d ";" -c /opt/custom/nsca/send_nsca.cfg
