      As @stephenw10 mentioned, we now have a native builder for armv7 packages and it was the first step.

      Now in order to make Telegraf available we need to have some fixes committed to FreeBSD to make golang to work as expected on arm32 jails running on aarch64 hosts and after it happens we will be able to enable Telegraf building.

      You can follow needed changes being reviewed at https://reviews.freebsd.org/D31175

          Finally had the time. Guess we wait another day.. At least the build system is "fixed?"

              Are there any other sources to get a Telegraf package running on SG-3100?
              I'd really like to use it for Grafana.

                @renegade Late reply, but if you're able to build the telegraf package yourself (see my video) you can manually add it to pfsense directly / add to /etc/rc.conf to have it start at boot.

                  Hello pfsense,

                  Many of us have been running an unsupported telegraf solution for months.
                  Will you please provide the community with an update on a supported telegraf solution for the SG-3100?

                  Thank you

                    Bump. New branch office setup so they get some hand-me-down 3100's. I'd like to deploy these 100% which means I need telegraf. I can compile it myself, but our policy is not to put OOB packages on core network devices, so... What's happening with this package for ARM?

                    As an aside, you may wonder why are we still deploying 3100's... delivery backlogs on anything with a processor in it is why! We have to use what we have on hand until everything is back to normal.

                      I believe the required technical hurdles to allow this to build have been cleared. We just need the code to become available in FreeBSD for our builders. Plus ironing out anything else that reveals.
                      This should happen relatively soon. 🤞

                          Don't know what's going on, might be related to your SG-3100 which is End-of-sale.

                          This is from a Netgate SG-2100 / Version 21.05.2-RELEASE (arm64) / CPU Type ARM Cortex-A53 r0p4

                                Sorry, there's been zero development time for anything else in the run up to 22.01/2.6. Let me see what the current situation is.

                                  I don't want to keep beating a dead horse, but any update on this? I'm shocked that this thread is almost 3 years old and still no official support from Netgate, please advise

                                    Last I saw all the components to allow the package build were in place but the build still failed with some obscure error. As I said there has been basically zero development time available to look at this sort of issue.
                                    I'll try to bump it up the queue.

                                          I guess that official support has totally given up trying.

                                          Does anyone know about some other workstream of someone else trying to have telegraf working on ARM devices?

                                            The poor SG-3100 has two strikes against it now in its old age that make package development a bit of a pain. First, it is an ARM and not Intel CPU chip. That means a special development environment is required to create and build the packages. Second, it is a 32-bit platform and almost everything these days is geared for 64-bit hardware.

                                            So, I would not get my hopes up for any new package releases for the SG-3100.
