Telegraf for ARM systems? (e.g. Netgate SG-3100).
-
@dennis_s What's really the blocker here? I currently have an SG-3100 with the current version of pfsense and am using telegraf from an older build. What's really blocking Netgate? Is it go or?
-
@dennis_s not being funny, this goes since April 2019. Are you really want to tell us that netgate devs can't make it work, they just don't listen or can't be bothered. 2 years ... it's not only thread where ppl are asking for it.

I find it odd because I had installed the telegraf pkg from an SG-1100 (through the Package Manager) sometime in January 2021. And since then, the pkg is no longer available (it was removed during my update to 21.02, and was unavailable after completing the update). So I had a fully-configured and functional telegraf module (reporting to InfluxDB) that got nuked in the 21.02 update process. Rather frustrating because I was using that to improve my monitoring resolution metrics for resolving some upstream WAN losses I've been having with my ISP.
EDIT: Should be noted that I forgot it was mentioned that the SG-1100 is
aarch64, so there should be a pkg available. But it seems to have gone AWOL. -
Hi friends.
Same issue with the prometheus node_exporter.
Would like to have that for the SG-3100.

Telegraf is now available again for arm64 systems, SG-1100 and SG-2100 systems.
Please test and let us know if you see any issues there.The same problems still exist for arm32(v6/7) but there is potential solution in the pipeline.

@stephenw10 Thank you; genuinely appreciate this. The package installed without issue on my SG-1100 and even remembered its old configuration from 2.4.5p1. I will update without any issues or bugs that may arise as far as I can tell.

For anyone who can use Prometheus instead of Telegraf, I recently found this blog post that might unblock you. I am not the author, and I haven't had a chance to try it out yet. I'm posting just because I've been watching this thread hopefully for a long time, and I am pretty sure this will satisfy my monitoring needs when I get to it. https://brendonmatheson.com/2021/02/07/step-by-step-guide-to-connecting-prometheus-to-pfsense-via-snmp.html

I have a copy of the "telegraf-1.9.0.txz" from "https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/issues/5282" if anyone wants / needs. I upgraded my SG-3100 via the gui and telegraf still survived after the 21.02 update. Thank Google for static linking...

Someone has to be able to do this. This /can/ work, but who's going to blink?
The code /looks/ to already be in FreeBSD. What am I missing? https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports/blob/master/net-mgmt/telegraf/Makefile
https://github.com/rickyzhang82/FreeBSDWiki/wiki / https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/how-to-cross-compile-port-in-amd64-for-armv7.71761/ , funny enough, is about the SG-3100 and how to build freebsd ports for it.
I'm going to try and get a newer version of telegraf built and report back. Hopefully I don't get paged this week.... >_>

Yes please, I would love to give it a go

I was excited to setup a TIG stack with my SG-3100 but very surprised to see that Telegraf wasn't available from the package manager. However, after learning about pfSense's uPnP performance, I wasn't very surprised to see that this has been an issue for over a year without any resolution. @stephenw10 you mentioned last March that you do not have any armv6 build hardware... do you guys still need an SG-3100?
-
OK OK OK, I'm working on the build now. Going with Science....
Edit: Dear Science the compiles take forever. An hour into building GO.... Ryzen 3900x...

Isn't the SG-3100 armv7? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARM_Cortex-A9

Looks like it. So any ideas what version of Telegraf is worth installing on the SG-3100? And looking around, there doesn't seem to be up to date documentation on how to install a package outside of what's available from the package manager... do you have a guide you'd recommend for installation?
-
If it's a compiled package you can just add it:
pkg add <path-to-package>As long as the dependencies are met.

@somken TY for that. I've just tried to download it and it appears that request is timing out.

Please @stephenw10. Please get this pushed forward. There is no real reason this can't work as it does work with an older version. I'll be figuring out the build process tonight, but the FreeBSD's ports tree already supports Telegraf on ARMv7 https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports/blob/master/net-mgmt/telegraf/Makefile#L14
Anyone want to take bets on how long it takes to compile on the SG-3100? I say 3 hours.
