RLMlm Exporter

Prometheus exporter for RLMlm License Manager lmstat license information.

This fork is specialised for the reduced version of RLMlm License Manager bundled with installations of Klocwork. This reduced bundle contains lmstat as a independent tool, instead of the lmutil lmstat tool used by the parent of this fork.

NOTE: The RLMLM Exporter currently builds only on Linux. Windows builds are a WIP. You will need to modify the Makefile to build in Windows.

Getting

$ go get github.com/drakeg/rlmlm_exporter

Building

$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/drakeg/rlmlm_exporter
$ make

Configuration

This is an illustrative example of the configuration file in YAML format.

# RLMLM Licenses to be monitored.
---
licenses:
  - name: app1
    license_file: /usr/local/rlmlm/licenses/license.dat.app1
    features_to_exclude: feature1,feature2
    monitor_users: True
    monitor_reservations: True
  - name: app2
    license_server: 28000@host1,28000@host2,28000@host3
    features_to_include: feature5,feature30
    monitor_users: True
    monitor_reservations: True

Notes:

1. It is possible to define a license with a path in license_file, that has to be readable from the exporter instance, or with license_server in a port@host combination format.
2. You can exclude some features from exporting with features_to_exclude, or export some defined and exclude the rest with feature_to_include.

Running

$ ./rlmlm_exporter --path.lmutil="/klocwork/3rdparty/bin/lmstat" <flags>
