afsmon

Python library and utilities for monitoring AFS file-systems using OpenAFS tools.

Many of the details are inspired by https://github.com/openafs-contrib/afs-tools

Command-line

The afsmon tool provides

• show : produce tabular output of key statistics for a cell, such as threads on file-servers, partition usage, volume usage and quotas.
• statsd : report similar results to a statsd host.

Configuration is minimal, see the sample.cfg.

Library

The core of afsmon should suitable for use in other contexts.

import afsmon
fs = afsmon.FileServerStats('hostname')
fs.get_stats()

The fs object now contains a FileServerStats with all available information for the server, partitions and volumes.
