      Telegraf just closed the PR needed to build Telegraf upstream for ARM on FreeBSD. The provided example compile, which is just my steps in their workflow, successfully built a working package. Having used it since I got asked a few days ago, zero issues.

        Just got a PR merged in to add URLs for FreeBSD armv7 links to the nightly list.

        https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/pull/9268

        Hopefully the SG-3100 can have official support soon...

              Oh look, 1.18.3 officially supports ARMv7. Wonder who did that... >_>

              This thread is becoming a meme, isn't it?

                  @somken Hi - have you managed to make any progress rattling those cages?

                    We have made some pretty significant changes to our build system over the last few months. You may have noticed we now have Suricata 5 available in 21.09 and that was not possible previously because of the Rust dependency. The restriction here is very similar so with any luck we may be able to re-enable this soon. 🤞

                        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
