Monitor with Monit

Posted onAuthorPD9QLeave a comment

A few days ago I posted a message about creating a pid file for linbpq. So that it becomes possible to monitor the process with watchdog.

You can read that here.

Now I use Monit to display this graphically. Why, because it looks nice. Now you immediately have an overview of running processes and their status.

The configuration file that I use for this.

/etc/monit/monitrc

## Start Monit in the background (run as a daemon):
#
  set daemon 300            # check services at 5-minute intervals
  set logfile /var/log/monit.log
  set pidfile /var/run/monit.pid
  set idfile /var/lib/monit/id
  set statefile /var/lib/monit/state

  set httpd port 2812
        use address 192.168.1.168
        allow 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
        allow admin:pancake

  set mailserver localhost               # primary mailserver

  set eventqueue
      basedir /var/lib/monit/events # set the base directory where events will be stored
      slots 100                     # optionally limit the queue size
  set alert pd9q@packet-radio.net                      # receive all alerts

  check system $HOST
    if loadavg (1min) > 4 then alert
    if loadavg (5min) > 2 then alert
    if cpu usage > 95% for 10 cycles then alert
    if memory usage > 75% then alert
    if swap usage > 25% then alert

  check process Linbpq with pidfile /home/pd9q/linbpq/run/linbpq.pid
  if changed pid then alert
  check file bpq32.cfg with path /home/pd9q/linbpq/bpq32.cfg

  check process Direwolf with pidfile /home/pd9q/linbpq/run/direwolf.pid
  if changed pid then alert
  check file direwolf.conf with path /home/pd9q/linbpq/direwolf.conf
 check host Router with address 192.168.1.1
    if failed ping then alert

  check network Eth0 with interface eth0
    if failed link then alert
    if changed link then alert
    if saturation > 90% then alert
    if download > 10 MB/s then alert
    if total uploaded > 1 GB in last hour then alert

check host Packet-radio.net with address packet-radio.net
      if failed icmp type echo count 5 with timeout 15 seconds
         then alert
      if failed port 80 proto http then alert
      if failed port 443 type TCPSSL proto http then alert
      alert pd9q@packet-radio.net

   include /etc/monit/conf.d/*
   include /etc/monit/conf-enabled/*

 

Bpq32 Configuration Example

Posted onAuthorPD9Q1 Comment

I came across the website of R.C. Anderson WH6FQE.

https://www.wh6fqe.com

Here he has a nice configuration example of BPQ32, windows version. I asked him if he thought it was okay that I placed it on my website. This was not a problem.

Sit back and enjoy.

SCS released PMOM

Posted onAuthorPD9QLeave a comment

Not sure if people saw this but SCS has released a program to monitor Pactor 1/2/3 transmissions even with B2F/LZHUF-compressed messages for the Raspberry Pi: 

https://www.p4dragon.com/en/PMON.html

David emailed them to see if they plan on releasing X86 versions and possibly packages for other distros like Ubuntu, Fedora, etc.  We’ll see what they say but this looks pretty cool!

Reaction of scs

Thank you for your inquiry.
Currently there is no plan to release PMON for other systems than Raspberry Pi. As also stated on the PMON web site, PACTOR-4 will follow in early 2020.

Thanks to David “Dranch”
