bind9_rndc
Name
bind9_rndc - Plugin to monitor usage of bind 9 servers using rndc stats
Configuration
The following environment variables are used by this plugin
[bind9_rndc]
env.rndc /usr/sbin/rndc
env.rndc_options
env.querystats /var/run/named.stats
The user/group that runs the plugin must have read access to the stats file. To change user or group (usually Munin plugins are run as nobody) add this to the [bind9_rndc] stanza if the “bind” user runs BIND:
user bind
On the BIND side put
statistics-file "/var/run/named.stats";
in the options part of your named.conf or set the querystats variable (see below) to where your named puts the statistics file by default.
You must also make sure the rndc.key file is readable by the user that runs the plugin.
If using AppArmor, make sure the stats file is allowed (On Ubuntu: add this line to /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.named)
/var/run/named/named.stats rw
Features and Bugs
Previous versions of this plugin allowed an empty “rndc” environment setting to not do a explicit dump of stats to the stats file. This version requires running rndc itself. This makes the method of finding the correct stats in the file more reliable than before.
