Linux RedHat, CentOS

    RHEL 8: enable the codeready-builder-for-rhel-8-*-rpms repository 
    # ARCH=$( /bin/arch )
# subscription-manager repos --enable "codeready-builder-for-rhel-8-${ARCH}-rpms"
    CentOS 8: enable the PowerTools repository

# yum install ed bc libxml2 sharutils
    Note that rrdtool-perl and epel-release (this is necessary only for PDF reporting) might not be in your RedHat base repository especially for RHEL 6.x and olders.
    Install CentOS package instead rrdtool-perl-1.4.8-9.el7.x86_64.rpm and epel-release-7-9.noarch.rpm

Linux Debian, Ubuntu

    # umask 0022

AIX

    Install RRDTool 1.4.8 with all prerequisites for AIX
    If you use yum on AIX then do not use rrdtool-1.7.0-4, it has a bug, use rrdtool-1.7.0-3 instead

Apache download

  • Linux CentOS, RedHat 
    # yum install httpd
  • Linux Debian, Ubuntu 
    # apt-get install httpd

Apache configuration

Apache start / restart

    Command depends on Apache version, one of these should work: 
    # apachectl restart
# /opt/freeware/apache/sbin/apachectl restart
# /etc/init.d/httpd restart
# service apache2 restart
    If you have firewall enabled then enable LPAR2RRD communication by: 
    # firewall-cmd --add-service=http --permanent
# firewall-cmd --add-service=https --permanent
# firewall-cmd --add-port=8162/tcp --permanent

# firewall-cmd --reload

Test web pages

    Point your web browser to http://<your lpar2rrd host>/lpar2rrd/ as soon as you configure LPAR2RRD
    Do not forget to ensure that Apache starts after the OS reboot (there must be a starting script in /etc/rc.... )

Apache configuration per platform and version

  • Linux CentOS, RedHat


    Append at the end of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf following

  • Apache 2.4+ generally


    Configure httpd.conf, it might be in different locations (depends of distribution)
    • /etc/httpd/httpd.conf
    • /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
    • /etc/opt/freeware/apache/httpd.conf (AIX)
    • /opt/freeware/etc/httpd/httpd.conf (AIX)
    • /opt/freeware/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf (AIX)
    • /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

    1. Verify alias_module and cgi_module is loaded (uncommented it, the path can be different) 
      LoadModule alias_module /opt/freeware/lib/httpd/modules/mod_alias.so
LoadModule cgi_module /opt/freeware/lib/httpd/modules/mod_cgi.so
    2. cgi_module could depend on mpm_prefork_module like here.
      Allow it as well (uncomment it) and disable mpm_worker_module, mpm_event_module 
      LoadModule mpm_prefork_module /opt/freeware/lib/httpd/modules/mod_mpm_prefork.so
# LoadModule mpm_worker_module /opt/freeware/lib/httpd/modules/mod_mpm_worker.so

<IfModule mpm_prefork_module>
     LoadModule cgi_module /opt/freeware/lib/httpd/modules/mod_cgi.so
</IfModule>
    3. Append this at the end of httpd.conf 
      AddHandler cgi-script .sh
Alias /lpar2rrd  "/home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd/www/"
<Directory "/home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd/www/">

    AllowOverride None
    SetHandler cgi-script

      Sometimes appears necessary to remove "Require all granted" lines in both directives.

  • SELinux changes


    You need to disable the SELinux service protection to be able to utilize basic web services.
    You must do it in case you get "(13)Permission denied:" in Apache error_log.
    You have 2 options:

    • Disable SELinux only for Apache 
      Step 1. Query for the Boolean value you need to change:
# getsebool -a | grep httpd_dis
  httpd_disable_trans --> off

Step 2. Disable the SELinux protection:
# setsebool -P httpd_disable_trans=1

Step 3. Verify that the Boolean has changed:
# getsebool -a | grep httpd_dis
  httpd_disable_trans --> on
    • Globally disable SELinux 
      # setenforce Permissive
# vi /etc/sysconfig/selinux
  SELINUX=disabled
Oracle DB monitoring schema
LPAR2RRD obtains data through SQL (SQL*Plus). Oracle client must be installed on LPAR2RRD server.
Monitoring implementation does not require any Oracle licensed features like Oracle Diagnostics Pack or Oracle Tuning Pack .
LPAR2RRD requires a database user with the following view only permissions to collect monitoring data:
  • create session
  • select rights on specific sys.* tables

Oracle Instant Client and SQL*Plus installation

Oracle Instant Client and SQL Plus are used for collecting information from an Oracle DB instance.
Oracle DB user is needed with sufficient privileges.
Version compatibility: OIC 19c supports Oracle DB versions 11.2.0.4 and newer.
Oracle Instant Client (OIC) can be deployed from a ZIP file or installed as an RPM package.
Installation steps are performed under root account

  • Linux: libaio prerequisite Skip this step if you are using XoruX Virtual Appliance
    # yum -y install libaio.x86_64
  • Linux CentOS8/RHEL8: libnsl.so.1 might not have been in the OS present, install it: 
    # dnf install libnsl.x86_64
  • Installation form ZIP files (Linux and AIX)
    • Download ZIP packages from Oracle Download website Linux x86-64, AIX
      OIC basic: instantclient-basic-linux.x64-19.6.0.0.0dbru.zip
      SQL*Plus: instantclient-sqlplus-linux.x64-19.6.0.0.0dbru.zip

      Create /opt/oracle directory and unzip 
      # mkdir /opt/oracle
# cd /opt/oracle
# unzip /<download_dir>/instantclient-basic-linux.x64-19.6.0.0.0dbru.zip
# unzip /<download_dir>/instantclient-sqlplus-linux.x64-19.6.0.0.0dbru.zip
      ZIP files will be unpacked into /opt/oracle/instantclient_<version>

    • ldconfig (Linux) 
      # echo "/opt/oracle/instantclient_<version>" > /etc/ld.so.conf.d/oracle-instantclient.conf

Create DB user for LPAR2RRD

Database user in each Oracle instance must be created, it will be used for LPAR2RRD access.
You can choice whatever user name (below examle show "lpar2rrd" user, then specify it in LPAR2RRD Database properties.

Connectivity check

Allow access from the LPAR2RRD host to Oracle DB host.
Make sure you are using correct port.
Default port for Oracle DB sessions is 1521.

Check connectivity:
$ perl /home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd/bin/conntest.pl 192.168.1.1 1521
  Connection to "192.168.1.1" on port "1521" is ok

Attach Oracle Databases

  • Oracle environment
    Set Oracle environment variables in etc/lpar2rrd.cfg, modify existing setup 
    # Oracle DB client setup
# Adjust ORACLE_HOME & ORACLE_BASE as necessary, "instantclient_X" is only example
# Do not use ORACLE_HOME variable as part of ORACLE_HOME, use always full path!
  ORACLE_BASE=/opt/oracle
  ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/instantclient_XY
    Note ORACLE_HOME must be directory where sqlplus binary is, like in this example when it is in /usr/lib/oracle/19.6/client64/bin/sqlplus 
    ORACLE_BASE=/usr/lib/oracle
ORACLE_HOME=/usr/lib/oracle/19.6/client64/bin
  • LPAR2RRD UI ➡ Settings icon ➡ Oracle DB --> ➡ New :
    Oracle DB configuration

    Oracle service: to list Oracle service use this cmd on the server where DB is running: lsnrctl status
    Make sure that connection test passes without errors or warnings.

  • Number of attached Oracle RAC instances is limited to 1 in the Free edition.
    However you can attach Oracle RAC nodes even as stand-alone instances if you reach the limitation, there is no limit for attaching of Oracle stand-alone DB instances.

  • Make sure cron jobs for Oracle DB are in place (upgrade script might do it for you automatically)
    Skip this step if you install the Virtual Appliance - it is already taken care of. 
    $ crontab -l | grep "load_oracledb.sh"
$
    Add following lines to crontab if necessary 
    $ crontab -e

# Oracle DB support
0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * *  /home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd/load_oracledb.sh > /home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd/load_oracledb.out 2>&1
  • Wait 30 minutes and then go to the web UI: http://<your web server>/lpar2rrd/
    Use Ctrl-F5 to refresh the web browser cache.


Skip it in case of configuring Virtual Appliance

Install LPAR2RRD server

  • Download the latest LPAR2RRD server
    Upgrade your already running LPAR2RRD instance.

  • Install it: 
    # su - lpar2rrd
$ tar xvf lpar2rrd-6.XX.tar
$ cd lpar2rrd-6.XX
$ ./install.sh
$ cd /home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd
  • Schedule to run it from lpar2rrd crontab (it might already exist there)
    $ crontab -l | grep load.sh
$
    Add if it does not exist as above 
    $ crontab -e

# LPAR2RRD UI
0 * * * * /home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd/load.sh > /home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd/load.out 2>&1
    Assure there is just one such entry in crontab.

  • You might need to add lpar2rrd user into /var/adm/cron/cron.allow if crontab command fails
    Allow it for lpar2rrd user as root user. 
    # echo "lpar2rrd" >> /var/adm/cron/cron.allow
  • Assure you have a cron jobs for Oracle DB in place (upgrade script might do it automatically) Skip it on the Virtual Appliance, it is already there. 
    $ crontab -l | grep "load_oracledb.sh"
$
    Add it if it does not exist like above
