Enabling ApMon
Once a MonaLisa service has been set up, in order to be able to insert ad-hoc data, one needs to enable the "ApMon" module. This document describes the necessary steps.
Enabling the apmon module should be a short and simple change. If you have installed MonaLisa through the VDT, open the vdtFarm.conf file found here:
Now, as root, restart the MonaLisa service, and you should be ready:
$MonaLisa_HOME/Service/VDTFarm/vdtFarm.confAdd the following line to the file:
^monXDRUDP{ParamTimeout=3600,NodeTimeout=3600,ClusterTimeout=3600,ListenPort=58884,AppendIPToNodeName=true}%20
This will set your service to listen for ApMon packets at port 58884. Change this as desired. Others might want to set AppendIPToNodeName=False. I don't really care for the IP on the node names. Now, as root, restart the MonaLisa service, and you should be ready:
/etc/init.d/MLD restartIt is always a good idea to test things out. Try sending ApMon packets with the mlmetric tool.
