To enable it, use `edit-config` from the Netdata [config directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/nodes.md), which is typically at `/etc/netdata`, to edit the `python.d.conf` file. + +```bash +cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different +sudo ./edit-config python.d.conf +``` +Change the value of the `samba` setting to `yes`. Save the file and restart the Netdata Agent with `sudo systemctl restart netdata`, or the [appropriate method](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/start-stop-restart.md) for your system. + + +#### Permissions and programs + +To run the collector you need: + +- `smbstatus` program +- `sudo` program +- `smbd` must be compiled with profiling enabled +- `smbd` must be started either with the `-P 1` option or inside `smb.conf` using `smbd profiling level` + +The module uses `smbstatus`, which can only be executed by `root`.

Resetting is not optimal, but a next-best solution given the inability to execute `smbstatus` using `sudo`. + + + As the `root` user, do the following: + + ```cmd + mkdir /etc/systemd/system/netdata.service.d + echo -e '[Service]\nCapabilityBoundingSet=~' | tee /etc/systemd/system/netdata.service.d/unset-capability-bounding-set.conf + systemctl daemon-reload + systemctl restart netdata.service + ``` + + + +### Configuration + +#### File + +The configuration file name for this integration is `python.d/samba.conf`. + + +You can edit the configuration file using the `edit-config` script from the +Netdata [config directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/nodes.md#the-netdata-config-directory). + +```bash +cd /etc/netdata 2>/dev/null || cd /opt/netdata/etc/netdata +sudo ./edit-config python.d/samba.conf +``` +#### Options + +There are 2 sections: + +* Global variables +* One or more JOBS that can define multiple different instances to monitor. + +The following options can be defined globally: priority, penalty, autodetection_retry, update_every, but can also be defined per JOB to override the global values. + +Additionally, the following collapsed table contains all the options that can be configured inside a JOB definition. + +Every configuration JOB starts with a `job_name` value which will appear in the dashboard, unless a `name` parameter is specified. + + +
Config options + +| Name | Description | Default | Required | +|:----|:-----------|:-------|:--------:| +| update_every | Sets the default data collection frequency. | 5 | False | +| priority | Controls the order of charts at the netdata dashboard. | 60000 | False | +| autodetection_retry | Sets the job re-check interval in seconds. | 0 | False | +| penalty | Indicates whether to apply penalty to update_every in case of failures. | yes | False | + +
+ +#### Examples + +##### Basic + +A basic example configuration. + +
Config + +```yaml +my_job_name: + name: my_name + update_every: 1 + +``` +
+ + + +## Troubleshooting + +### Debug Mode + +To troubleshoot issues with the `samba` collector, run the `python.d.plugin` with the debug option enabled. The output +should give you clues as to why the collector isn't working. + +- Navigate to the `plugins.d` directory, usually at `/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/`. If that's not the case on + your system, open `netdata.conf` and look for the `plugins` setting under `[directories]`. + + ```bash + cd /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/ + ``` + +- Switch to the `netdata` user. + + ```bash + sudo -u netdata -s + ``` + +- Run the `python.d.plugin` to debug the collector: + + ```bash + ./python.d.plugin samba debug trace + ``` + + -- cgit v1.2.3
