Custom Extension Not Reporting...

Andrei-Dragos_M — Wed, 25 Nov 2020 09:16:00 GMT

Hi,

I am new to this custom extensions.

I am trying to build just a dummy one to see how it works.

I have the folder in the machine-agent-home/monitors and just a simple script that does a simple echo with a predefine metric. I just want to see it in the Metric Browser under Custom Metrics.

This is all that the script contains :

printf "name=Custom Metrics|Disks %s|KB written/sec,aggregator=OBSERVATION,value=%d\n" "/test" 2

So it just prints: name=Custom Metrics|Disks /test|KB written/sec,aggregator=OBSERVATION,value=2

But in the metric browser, custom metrics is not visible under my server path if I expand the tree...

I see this weird info in the log file "Forcing stop for Executable Command..."

Below is the snipped from the log file as well as what the monitors.xml file contains.

Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong ?

Thank you very much in advance !

Hello Andrei,

Please review the following documentation to create custom metrics using script.
