mon-setup

This script will detect running services and configure mon-agent to watch them as well as starting the agent and configuring it to start up on boot.

Future Considerations

• A good system for specifying active style checks for configuration would be great. Active style checks are those which run locally but are checking a remote box.
• The ability to dynamically add detection plugins could be quite valuable. Also it could aid in the active check config.
  • With the ability to dynamically add I should also include the ability to dynamically remove.
• A config file with metadata to assist in automatic configuration could be quite valuable, for example user/pass for logging into mysql.
• The current system does not work well in the case of clusters, for example the kafka plugin will end up collecting the same data on each node of a cluster.
