NAME

       pmdads389 - 389 Directory Server PMDA

DESCRIPTION

       pmdads389  is  a  Performance  Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) which extracts live performance
       data from a running 389 Directory Server instance.

       See the Red Hat Directory Server Administration Guide for description for each metric.

INSTALLATION

       pmdads389 reads an optional configuration file

           · $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/ds389/ds389.conf

       This file can contain overridden values (Perl code) for the settings listed at  the  start
       of pmdads389.pl, namely:

           · LDAP server
           · bind DN
           · bind password
           · search scope
           · search base
           · search filter
           · query interval

       Once this is setup, you can access the names and values for the 389 DS performance metrics
       by doing the following as root:

           # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/ds389
           # ./Install

       To uninstall, do the following as root:

           # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/ds389
           # ./Remove

       pmdads389 is launched by pmcd(1) and should never be executed directly.  The  Install  and
       Remove scripts notify pmcd(1) when the agent is installed or removed.

PCP ENVIRONMENT

       Environment variables with the prefix PCP_ are used to parameterize the file and directory
       names used by PCP.  On each installation, the file /etc/pcp.conf contains the local values
       for  these  variables.   The  $PCP_CONF  variable  may  be  used to specify an alternative
       configuration file, as described in pcp.conf(5).
