Re: [Samba] samba performance metrics
I have found this, which looks like it could be interesting -> http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/install.html (search for perfmon in the page) It seems like this dir should have perf counters, but I don't see them in my running instance. Anyone know about this? On my instance it is: /var/cache/samba/perfmon/*.tbd But I don't see anything. Any idea?

[Samba] samba performance metrics
Hi, I am attempting to write a monitor to gather Samba Server performance metrics. I would like to get raw metrics directly from the server itself rather than a 3rd party tool. Could anyone point me to docs or enlighten me on how to accomplish this? I am looking to determine the availability of the server (up or down), the number of files requested, any caching information available and anything else which would be relevant to determining the overall health of the server. thanks.
