Agent setup
-----------
To gather data from remote systems you can use LibreNMS in combination with check_mk (included in the scripts directory).
On each of the hosts you would like to use the agent on then you need to do the following:
* Copy the `check_mk_agent` script into `/usr/bin` and make it executable.
```shell
cp scripts/check_mk_agent /usr/bin/check_mk_agent
chmod +x /usr/bin/check_mk_agent
```
* Copy the xinetd config file into place.
```shell
cp scripts/check_mk_xinetd /etc/xinetd.d/check_mk
```
* Create the relevant directories.
```shell
mkdir -p /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/plugins /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local
```
* Copy each of the scripts from `scripts/agent-local/` into `/usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local`
* And restart xinetd.
```shell
/etc/init.d/xinetd restart
```
* Login to the LibreNMS web interface and edit the device you want to monitor. Under the modules section, ensure that unix-agent is enabled.
* Then under Applications, enable the apps that you plan to monitor.
* Wait, in around 10 minutes you should start seeing data in your graphs under Apps for the device.
