The summary monitoring info collector with output to ApMon / MonALISA

To get the code: svn co https://svn.gled.org/var/trunk/xrd-rep-snatcher

The code requires a relatively recent Getopt::Long (more recent than in SLC5) and Getopt::FileConfig (which is not installable via rpm). Using CPAN to get them is the best option. If you are superuser on the machine, just install them (they go into site_perl/ so they don't damage rpm installed packages), otherwise just put them in some directory and add use lib your-dir; somewhere at the top.

To run for debugging with output to stdout run: ./xrd-rep-snatcher.pl --no-daemon --apmonport=0 --logfile=-

To print out raw messages uncomment line 527: # print LOG $raw_data, "\n";

To print out messages after XML parsing uncomment line 528: # print LOG Data::Dumper::Dumper($d);

Example XRootD configuration stanza

xrd.report xrdcollector.example.org:9931,another.host.org:9931 every 60s all sync

This will send reports for both xrootd and cmsd daemons. If you only want reports from xrootd, put if exec xrootd / fi around that line.
