agent-si

mackerel-agent is a piece of software which is installed on your hosts to collect metrics and events and send them to Mackerel where they can be visualized and monitored.

mackerel-agent executes the following tasks in the foreground:

  • registering your hosts with Mackerel
  • collecting specs and metrics from your hosts and posting them to Mackerel

Your hosts' information will be viewable on Mackerel.

As of now, mackerel-agent is officially supported to run on CentOS 5/6 and Debian 6/7.

SYNOPSIS

Build and Run the mackerel-agent.

make build
make run

The apikey will be required in order to run the agent.

An organization must first be created in Mackerel, then the apikey can be configured in mackerel-agent.conf.

The following commands can be used instead of make.

go get -d github.com/mackerelio/mackerel-agent
go build -o build/mackerel-agent \
  -ldflags="\
    -X github.com/mackerelio/mackerel-agent/version.GITCOMMIT `git rev-parse --short HEAD` \
    -X github.com/mackerelio/mackerel-agent/version.VERSION   `git describe --tags --abbrev=0 | sed 's/^v//' | sed 's/\+.*$$//'` " \
  github.com/mackerelio/mackerel-agent
./build/mackerel-agent -conf=mackerel-agent.conf
