Introduction
You can use Application support to graph performance statistics of many applications.
Different applications support a variety of ways to collect data: 1) by direct connection to the application, 2) snmpd extend, or 3) the agent. The monitoring of applications could be added before or after the hosts have been added to LibreNMS.
If multiple methods of collection are listed you only need to enable one.
SNMP Extend
When using the snmp extend method, the application discovery module will pick up which applications you have set up for monitoring automatically, even if the device is already in LibreNMS. The application discovery module is enabled by default for most *nix operating systems, but in some cases you will need to manually enable the application discovery module.
Enable the application discovery module
- Edit the device for which you want to add this support
- Click on the Modules tab and enable the
applications
module. - This will be automatically saved, and you should get a green confirmation pop-up message.
After you have enabled the application module, it would be wise to then also enable which applications you want to monitor, in the rare case where LibreNMS does not automatically detect it.
Note: Only do this if an application was not auto-discovered by LibreNMS during discovery and polling.
Enable the application(s) to be discovered
- Go to the device you have just enabled the application module for.
- Click on the Applications tab and select the applications you want to monitor.
- This will also be automatically saved, and you should get a green confirmation pop-up message.
Agent
The unix-agent does not have a discovery module, only a poller module. That poller module is always disabled by default. It needs to be manually enabled if using the agent. Some applications will be automatically enabled by the unix-agent poller module. It is better to ensure that your application is enabled for monitoring. You can check by following the steps under the SNMP Extend

Apache
Either use SNMP extend or use the agent.
Note that you need to install and configure the Apache mod_status module before trying the script.
SNMP Extend
- Download the script onto the desired host (the host must be added to LibreNMS devices)
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/librenms/librenms-agent/master/snmp/apache-stats.py -O /etc/snmp/apache-stats.py
-
Make the script executable (chmod +x /etc/snmp/apache-stats.py)
-
Verify it is working by running /etc/snmp/apache-stats.py In some cases urlgrabber and pycurl needs to be installed, in Debian this can be achieved by:
apt-get install python-urlgrabber python-pycurl
Make sure to remove /tmp/apache-snmp afterwards.
- Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf) and add:
extend apache /etc/snmp/apache-stats.py
-
Restart snmpd on your host
-
Test by running
snmpwalk <various options depending on your setup> localhost NET-SNMP-EXTEND-MIB::nsExtendOutput2Table
Agent
Install the agent on this device if it isn't already and copy the apache
script to /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/
- Verify it is working by running /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/apache (If you get error like "Can't locate LWP/Simple.pm". libwww-perl needs to be installed: apt-get install libwww-perl)
- On the device page in Librenms, edit your host and check the
Apache
under the Applications tab.
Asterisk
A small shell script that reports various Asterisk call status.
SNMP Extend
-
Copy the asterisk script to
/etc/snmp/
on your asterisk server. -
Run
chmod +x /etc/snmp/asterisk
-
Configure
ASCLI
in the script. -
Verify it is working by running
/etc/snmp/asterisk
-
Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually
/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
) and add:
extend asterisk /etc/snmp/asterisk
- Restart snmpd on your host
The application should be auto-discovered as described at the top of the page. If it is not, please follow the steps set out under SNMP Extend
heading top of page.
BIND9 aka named
1: Create stats file with appropriate permissions:
~$ touch /var/run/named/stats
~$ chown bind:bind /var/run/named/stats
Change user:group
to the user and group that's running bind/named.
2: Bind/named configuration:
options {
...
statistics-file "/var/run/named/stats";
zone-statistics yes;
...
};
3: Restart your bind9/named after changing the configuration.
4: Verify that everything works by executing rndc stats && cat /var/run/named/stats
. In case you get a Permission Denied
error, make sure you changed the ownership correctly.
5: Also be aware that this file is appended to each time rndc stats
is called. Given this it is suggested you setup file rotation for it. Alternatively you can also set zero_stats to 1 in the config.
6: The script for this also requires the Perl module File::ReadBackwards
.
FreeBSD => p5-File-ReadBackwards
CentOS/RedHat => perl-File-ReadBackwards
Debian/Ubuntu => libfile-readbackwards-perl
If it is not available, it can be installed by cpan -i File::ReadBackwards
.
7: You may possibly need to configure the agent/extend script as well.
The config file's path defaults to the same path as the script, but with .config appended. So if the script is located at /etc/snmp/bind
, the config file will be /etc/snmp/bind.config
. Alternatively you can also specify a config via -c $file
.
Anything starting with a # is comment. The format for variables are $variable=$value. Empty lines are ignored. Spaces and tabs at either the start or end of a line are ignored.
Content of an example /etc/snmp/bind.config . Please edit with your own settings.
rndc = The path to rndc. Default: /usr/bin/env rndc
call_rndc = A 0/1 boolean on whether or not to call rndc stats. Suggest to set to 0 if using netdata. Default: 1
stats_file = The path to the named stats file. Default: /var/run/named/stats
agent = A 0/1 boolean for if this is being used as a LibreNMS agent or not. Default: 0
zero_stats = A 0/1 boolean for if the stats file should be zeroed first. Default: 0 (1 if guessed)
If you want to guess at the configuration, call the script with -g
and it will print out what it thinks
it should be.

Postfix
SNMP Extend
1: Copy the shell script, postfix-queues, to the desired host. wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/postfix-queues -O /etc/snmp/postfix-queues
2: Copy the Perl script, postfixdetailed, to the desired host. wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/postfixdetailed -O /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed
3: Make both scripts executable. Run chmod +x /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed /etc/snmp/postfix-queues
4: Edit your snmpd.conf file and add:
extend mailq /etc/snmp/postfix-queues
extend postfixdetailed /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed
5: Restart snmpd.
6: Install pflogsumm for your OS.
7: Make sure the cache file in /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed is some place that snmpd can write too. This file is used for tracking changes between various values between each time it is called by snmpd. Also make sure the path for pflogsumm is correct.
8: Run /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed to create the initial cache file so you don't end up with some crazy initial starting value. Please note that each time /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed is ran, the cache file is updated, so if this happens in between LibreNMS doing it then the values will be thrown off for that polling period.
The application should be auto-discovered as described at the top of the page. If it is not, please follow the steps set out under SNMP Extend
heading top of page.
NOTE: If using RHEL for your postfix server, qshape must be installed manually as it is not officially supported. CentOs 6 rpms seem to work without issues.
Postgres
SNMP Extend
1: Copy the shell script, postgres, to the desired host. wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/postgres -O /etc/snmp/postgres
2: Run chmod +x /etc/snmp/postgres
3: Edit your snmpd.conf file and add:
extend postgres /etc/snmp/postgres
4: Restart snmpd on your host
5: Install the Nagios check check_postgres.pl on your system.
6: Verify the path to check_postgres.pl in /etc/snmp/postgres is correct.
7: If you wish it to ignore the database postgres for totalling up the stats, set ignorePG to 1(the default) in /etc/snmp/postgres. If you are using netdata or the like, you may wish to set this or otherwise that total will be very skewed on systems with light or moderate usage.

-
Run
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/proxmox
-
Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually
/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
) and add:extend proxmox /usr/local/bin/proxmox
-
Note: if your snmpd doesn't run as root, you might have to invoke the script using sudo and modify the "extend" line
extend proxmox /usr/bin/sudo /usr/local/bin/proxmox
after, edit your sudo users (usually visudo
) and add at the bottom:
snmp ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/local/bin/proxmox
- Restart snmpd on your host
Raspberry PI
SNMP extend script to get your PI data into your host.
SNMP Extend
-
Download the script onto the desired host.
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/librenms/librenms-agent/master/snmp/raspberry.sh -O /etc/snmp/raspberry.sh
-
Make the script executable:
chmod +x /etc/snmp/raspberry.sh
-
Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually
/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
) and add:
extend raspberry /etc/snmp/raspberry.sh
- Edit your sudo users (usually
visudo
) and add at the bottom:
snmp ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /etc/snmp/raspberry.sh, /usr/bin/vcgencmd*
Note: If you are using Raspian, the default user is Debian-snmp
. Change snmp
above to Debian-snmp
. You can verify the user snmpd is using with ps aux | grep snmpd
- Restart snmpd on PI host
SMART
SNMP Extend
1: Copy the Perl script, smart, to the desired host. wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/smart -O /etc/snmp/smart
2: Run chmod +x /etc/snmp/smart
3: Edit your snmpd.conf file and add:
extend smart /etc/snmp/smart
4: You will also need to create the config file, which defaults to the same path as the script, but with .config appended. So if the script is located at /etc/snmp/smart, the config file will be /etc/snmp/smart.config. Alternatively you can also specific a config via -c.
Anything starting with a # is comment. The format for variables is $variable=$value. Empty lines are ignored. Spaces and tabes at either the start or end of a line are ignored. Any line with out a = or # are treated as a disk.
#This is a comment
cache=/var/cache/smart
smartctl=/usr/bin/env smartctl
useSN=1
ada0
ada1
The variables are as below.
cache = The path to the cache file to use. Default: /var/cache/smart
smartctl = The path to use for smartctl. Default: /usr/bin/env smartctl
useSN = If set to 1, it will use the disks SN for reporting instead of the device name.
1 is the default. 0 will use the device name.
If you want to guess at the configuration, call it with -g and it will print out what it thinks it should be. This will result in a usable config, but may miss some less common disk devices.
5: Restart snmpd on your host
If you have a large number of more than one or two disks on a system, you should consider adding this to cron. Also make sure the cache file is some place it can be written to.
*/3 * * * * /etc/snmp/smart -u
- If your snmp agent runs as user "snmp", edit your sudo users (usually
visudo
) and add at the bottom:
snmp ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /etc/snmp/smart, /usr/sbin/smartctl
and modify your snmpd.conf file accordingly:
extend smart /usr/bin/sudo /etc/snmp/smart
The application should be auto-discovered as described at the top of the page. If it is not, please follow the steps set out under SNMP Extend
heading top of page.
If you set useSN to 1, it is worth noting that you will loose history(not able to access it from the web interface) for that device each time you change it. You will also need to run camcontrol or the like on said server to figure out what device actually corresponds with that serial number.
Also if the system you are using uses non-static device naming based on bus information, it may be worthwhile just using the SN as the device ID is going to be irrelevant in that case.
Squid
SNMP Proxy
1: Enable SNMP for Squid like below, if you have not already, and restart it.

TinyDNS aka djbdns
Agent
Install the agent on this device if it isn't already and copy the tinydns
script to /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/
Note: We assume that you use DJB's Daemontools to start/stop tinydns.
And that your tinydns instance is located in /service/dns
, adjust this path if necessary.
- Replace your log's
run
file, typically located in/service/dns/log/run
with:
#!/bin/sh
exec setuidgid dnslog tinystats ./main/tinystats/ multilog t n3 s250000 ./main/
- Create tinystats directory and chown:
mkdir /service/dns/log/main/tinystats
chown dnslog:nofiles /service/dns/log/main/tinystats
- Restart TinyDNS and Daemontools:
/etc/init.d/svscan restart
Note: Some saysvc -t /service/dns
is enough, on my install (Gentoo) it doesn't rehook the logging and I'm forced to restart it entirely.
