Creating an External Monitor in a partition

Hi Paul,

 

 

This is a bit ugly, and we've bastardized the original NTP monitor on Dev central but it seems to work thus far....

 

 

 

 

 

!/usr/bin/perl -w

 

 

use lib "/config/monitors/CPAN";

 

use strict;

 

use Net::NTP;

 

 

Add this PM to /config/monitors/CPAN/Net

 

use Net::IP;

 

 

require 5.005;

 

 

Derive and untaint programname.

 

my $programname = '/' . $0;

 

$programname =~ m/^.*\/([^\/]+)$/;

 

$programname = $1;

 

 

if ($programname eq '') {

 

die "Bad data in program name\n"

 

}

 

 

Process ID and file where it's to be stored. The format

 

is significant.

 

 

my $node = $ENV{"NODE_IP"};

 

my $port = $ENV{"NODE_PORT"};

 

 

 

 

 

my $pidfile = "/var/run/$programname.$node..$port.pid";

 

my $pid = "$$";

 

 

Maintenence. Clean up any existing EAV.

 

 

if (-f $pidfile ) {

 

open(PID, "<$pidfile");

 

my $pid = ;

 

close(PID);

 

if ( $pid ) {

 

chomp $pid; $pid =~ m/^(\d+)$/; $pid = $1;

 

if ( $pid ) {

 

kill 9, $pid;

 

}

 

}

 

unlink($pidfile);

 

}

 

 

Create a new maintenence file.

 

 

open(PID, ">$pidfile");

 

print PID $pid, "\n";

 

close(PID);

 

 

 

 

Create $ipv6 variable to change the $node IPv6 address

 

to an 'un-shortened' IPv6 address ($fullipv6)

 

 

my $ipv6 = new Net::IP ($node);

 

my $fullipv6 = $ipv6->ip();

 

 

Running "bigpipe db bigd.debug enable" can see "addr=2620:0:c10:f501:0:b:a20:97f6:123" when trying to test export (export

 

NODE_IP="2620:0:c10:f501:0:b:a20:97fa" NODE_PORT="123") - the script failed.

 

However, if used an IPv4 address it worked, tested on a virtual f5 debugging showed it

 

was using IPv4 - assumed this was because we were using partitions on production

 

boxes???

 

 

took off the first 6 IPv6 octets as when debugging found this was the same for all

 

addresses in the pool (this may be different on your box - partition name etc) - the last 2

 

octets of NODE-IP converted from hex to dec equalled our IPv4 addresses.

 

 

$fullipv6 =~ s/2620:0000:0c10:f501:0000:000b://;

 

 

removed the colon between the 2 last octets

 

 

$fullipv6 =~ s/://;

 

 

pulled apart the $fullipv6 string into 4 variables ready to convert into decimal

 

 

my ($v1, $v2, $v3, $v4) = unpack 'A2A2A2A2', $fullipv6;

 

 

convert each of the hex (IPv6 Octet) variables into decimal

 

my $ipv4v1 = hex($v1);

 

my $ipv4v2 = hex($v2);

 

my $ipv4v3 = hex($v3);

 

my $ipv4v4 = hex($v4);

 

my $dec = ".";

 

 

create the IPv4 address from the above variables with decimals

 

my $ipv4addy = ($ipv4v1 . $dec . $ipv4v2 . $dec . $ipv4v3 . $dec . $ipv4v4);

 

 

 

put in the IPv4 address in the place of the old $node variable

 

if (try_ntp_test($ipv4addy,$port)) {

 

print "OK\n";

 

}

 

 

unlink($pidfile);

 

exit(0);

 

 

 

 

substituted the $node variable with the $ipv4addy variable

 

sub try_ntp_test {

 

we just make sure we get a response

 

and that the server isn't a stratum

 

16 server (ie, it's lost it's time source).

 

 

my ($ipv4addy,$port) = @_;

 

my %response;

 

 

eval {

 

%response = get_ntp_response($ipv4addy,$port);

 

};

 

if ($@) {

 

return 0;

 

} else {

 

if ($response{'Stratum'} =~ /\d+/) {

 

changed to drop the member if their stratum was 14 or higher

 

if ($response{'Stratum'} >= 14) {

 

return 0;

 

} else {

 

and it isn't 16

 

return 1;

 

}

 

} else {

 

return 0;

 

}

 

}

 

 

}

 

 

 

 

2620:0:c10:f501:0:b:a20:97f - Looks like the 'b' matches the partition id (in this case 11)

 

 

And the first/48 bits are allocated to f5..
