Formula to install sysstat/sar and configure it.
- This formula has been tested on Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS and CentOS 6.5.
- Supports configuration through pillar data for all
Install the formula files as required by your salt master configuration.
To use the formula in a state setup the following code block: .. code-block:: Saltstack
- include:
- sysstat
To override defaults for the formula setup and include pillar as recommended in
pillar.example file.
Include the following states in order of package, config, service. Each state is fully configurable by the pillar. There shouldnt be a need to include the rest of the states as this state sets up sysstat fully based on the pillar.
Installs package specified in pillar['sysstat:lookup:pkg'], defaults to value
specified in sysstat/defaults.yml
Sets up the config in pillar['sysstat:lookup:config:path'] with values setup under pillar['sysstat:lookup:config'].
Toggled by sysstat:service:running config, will enable service or not. Defaults
off for RedHat setup in sysstat/map.jinja and on for rest as setup in
sysstat/defaults.yml
Parts of the formula may or may not work in versions earlier than 2014.7
