Subversion Repositories camp_sysinfo_client_3

Set of scripts designed to audit a Linux or Unix server, sending the results as a YAML file for additional processing

Installation Instructions

# target directory normally either /opt/sysinfo_client (Linux) or /usr/local/opt/sysinfo_client (BSD)
svn co  http://svn.dailydata.net/svn/camp_sysinfo_client_3 /your/target/directory/camp/sysinfo_client
/your/target/directory/sysinfo_client/installer/setup

Resulting structure (default Linux install)

/opt/camp/sysinfo_client         - Primary script (sysinfo_client) and libraries
/opt/camp/sysinfo_client/modules - scripts to be run to gather data
/opt/camp/sysinfo_client/scripts - transports to send results to another machine
/etc/camp/sysinfo_client         - Configuration file(s)
/etc/camp/sysinfo_client/modules - optional location for local scripts to be run to gather data
/etc/camp/sysinfo_client/scripts - optional location for local scripts to transport results to master machine
/etc/cron.daily/sysinfo_client   - soft link to executable
/etc/server_info                 - optional file to identify location, owner, etc... (see installer/server_info.sample)

FreeBSD install moves /opt to /usr/local/opt, and /etc/ to /usr/local/etc with cron link going into /etc/periodic/daily

opnSense is basic FreeBSD except cron done via config.d by placing an action file in /usr/local/opnsense/service/conf/actions.d

Operation:

When sysinfo_client is called
   load and verify the config file, creating a structure in memory (hash)
   run every script with the executable flag set in the modules/ directory
   run every script with the executable flag set in /etc/..../modules directory
   attempt each transport defined in config, from lowest priority to highest, until one succeeds
   
Modules
   Each module file should have one parameter with the location of library.pm (directory only, do not include library.pm)
   Modules must fail gracefully, identifying if they are not applicable to an existing machine (ie if a FreeBSD machine, don't try 
      to run Linux specific commands)
   Modules return 0 or more tab delimited lines containing category, sub-category, key, value
