# Samba monitoring with Netdata
Monitors the performance metrics of Samba file sharing.
## Requirements
- `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`
- `netdata` user needs to be able to sudo the `smbstatus` program without password
It produces the following charts:
1. **Syscall R/Ws** in kilobytes/s
- sendfile
- recvfile
2. **Smb2 R/Ws** in kilobytes/s
- readout
- writein
- readin
- writeout
3. **Smb2 Create/Close** in operations/s
- create
- close
4. **Smb2 Info** in operations/s
- getinfo
- setinfo
5. **Smb2 Find** in operations/s
- find
6. **Smb2 Notify** in operations/s
- notify
7. **Smb2 Lesser Ops** as counters
- tcon
- negprot
- tdis
- cancel
- logoff
- flush
- lock
- keepalive
- break
- sessetup
## prerequisite
This module uses `smbstatus` which can only be executed by root. It uses
`sudo` and assumes that it is configured such that the `netdata` user can
execute `smbstatus` as root without password.
Add to `sudoers`:
```
netdata ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /path/to/smbstatus
```
## Configuration
**samba** is disabled by default. Should be explicitly enabled in `python.d.conf`.
```yaml
samba: yes
```
Edit the `python.d/samba.conf` configuration file using `edit-config` from the Netdata [config
directory](/docs/configure/nodes.md), which is typically at `/etc/netdata`.
```bash
cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
sudo ./edit-config python.d/samba.conf
```
