NAME

       gatherd - SBLIM metric collection daemon

SYNOPSIS

       gatherd [argument]

DESCRIPTION

       The gatherd program is a system daemon that collects performance metrics for various components via a set of metric plugins. Raw metric
       data is forwarded to a seperate repository daemon that is located either locally or remotely (see reposd(8)). The repository destination,
       location of plugin directory, and other controllable configuration options are described in the configuration file man page (see
       gatherd.conf(5)).

       The gatherd daemon can be controlled at runtime by way of the gatherctl(8) command. This provides the ability to load and unload metric
       plugins online without the need to restart gatherd.

       The primary goal of the the sblim-gather package is to implement the DMTF's Base Metric Model (DSP1053). While, gatherd, reposd(8), and
       their plugins can be used standalone, the greatest benefit comes from using their CIM provider layer in conjuction with a CIM Object
       Manager (see cimserver(1)). For more information about CIM and the Base Metric Model refer to the Distrubuted Management Task Force (DMTF)
       at http://www.dmtf.org.

OPTIONS

       argument
	   gatherd daemonizes by default. Passing any value on the command line will cause it to run in the terminal.

FILES

       /etc/gatherd.conf
	   This file contains the daemon configuration settings. See gatherd.conf(5) for more information.

NAME

       xmltest - Test script to send CIM-XML (via wbemcat) to CIMOM and compare to known results

SYNOPSIS

       xmltest [FILE]

DESCRIPTION

       xmltest	is  a script that is used to send a raw CIM-XML test file to the sfcb CIMOM (using wbemcat) and then compares the returned CIM-XML
       results against a previously determined 'OK' result file to check whether the returned results match the expected results.  If  there  does
       not  yet  exist	an 'OK' corresponding to the XML file then xmltest will save the returned results as the new OK file for later use. If the
       returned CIM-XML results don't match the existing 'OK' file a new 'result' file will be generated containing the erroneous results.

       If no FILE is specified xmltest will use all files with a .xml extension in the current directory path.

EXAMPLE

       If there is no 'OK' file to compare returned CIM-XML results against xmltest will generate one.

	      # xmltest test/getclass.Linux_OperatingSystem.xml

	      Running test test/getclass.Linux_OperatingSystem.xml ... OK
	      Saving response as test/getclass.Linux_OperatingSystem.OK

       If the returned CIM-XML results match the existing 'OK' file xmltest will signal that the test passed.

	      # xmltest test/getclass.Linux_OperatingSystem.xml

	      Running test test/getclass.Linux_OperatingSystem.xml ... Passed

       If the returned CIM-XML results don't match the existing 'OK' file xmltest will signal that the tes failed and  generate  a  'result'  file
       containing the erroneous results.

	      # xmltest test/getclass.Linux_OperatingSystem.xml

	      Running test test/getclass.Linux_OperatingSystem.xml ... FAILED
	      Check test/getclass.Linux_OperatingSystem.result for errors

PREREQUISITES

       Requires wbemcat on search path.

BUGS

       Does  not  adequately deal with additional http headers/footers caused by chunking responses, which will result in false failures when com-
       paring results to existing "x.OK" files.
