external script : zfs 🔗 link

Hi,

I've developped an interesting external script for people needing to
follow zfs files.

All the info about it are hosted on github:
https://github.com/briner/zfs-4-xymon

and you can also check the screenshots here:

Hope that it can helps.

It probably will. There is one for Big Brother that exists currently. I
didn't need to make any changes for it to work, but it does not do any
graphing. That said, the disk test does. Looking at it now, the tests
that that script does (I use it):

Output of: 'df -F zfs -h'
Output of: 'zpool list'
Output of: 'zpool iostat'
Output of: 'zpool status -x'
Output of: 'zpool status -v'
Output of: 'zpool iostat -v'

HTH.

Why reinvent the wheel?

With graphing goodness.

If there's some other features you want added, tell me.

we had the problems to identify which of the sub zfs really consumes the
space, due to the fact that the counting of size in a zfs does include
all the size of the subzfs.

We've seen on the new solaris, that zfs does include a new option:
zfs list -t filesystem -o space, which could be used in our scripts.

Can you tell me if the graphing does groups the values by 4 ?

I'd like to group the graph.

I'd like to have a page which includes snapshot.

Measuring the size can be done, even if we need to manually tally up subzfs.
However, how do we graph the size? It might not make sense. As an
example, I have a 3Tb rpool, and a 100mb rpool on the same server.
(Data and transaction logs.)
On the same graph, any detail for the 100mb rpool will be lost.

Also, xymon is limited to one graph per page, so to graph the zfs size
as you want it, I will lose the rpool size graph as I currently have
it. Which is why I think a new test script is required.

Hello Vernon,

I do know that this can be done manually, but it is true also that it
takes a lot of time and that it is quite difficult to do it manually.

Furthermore, what I'd like to see when looking at my graphics is to see
which zfs did jump is consumption lately. So in that case, we should not
use the standard output of zfs list. But treat this output to extract
what is the real consumption of the zfs itself (I mean without counting
the subzfs).

This is what has be done on my xymon-scripts.

Notice also that the zfs commands do, now, includes new usefull option
to do this:

zfs list -t filesystem -o space

mmh, that's why I use percent of use of the zfs related to the pool.

I do not really understand what is a page in your comment. But check
this screenshots from the git web portal.
