Telegraf for ARM systems? (e.g. Netgate SG-3100).

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.

welp, it's been... months now? any progress?

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.Steve

Any luck with it?

Also still waiting for a telegram plugin for my sg-3100. :)

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.
-
Lot of changes in 23.01 though. The fixes we needed might be there, I'm not sure what testing has been done against a FreeBSD 14 build. Let me see....

@stephenw10 so what do you see? ;-) any hope here? thanks

Go still fails to build in 32bit arm unfortunately.
-
@stephenw10 sad. I just started to like the possibilities of Grafana dashboards etc / Unfortunately 2 of my customers run an SG-3100 ... exactly these 2 would be interested in the Grafana stuff. I wonder and research if there is anything else to use. As far as I read somewhere telegraf isn't the only way to collect data. But the question is if more modern "collectors" run on that 32bit-hardware (or in 32bit FreeBSD 14 ... forgive me if I mix up things).
-
I consider using SNMP instead. Prometheus plus snmp-exporter could deliver to Grafana. There should be enough information that way also. I have an older instance of LibreNMS where I collect pfSense data via SNMP for years already. Same data into Grafana should also make the customer happy. I will check that in the next days.

learning more: I see node_exporter for armv7:
https://www.freshports.org/sysutils/node_exporter/Does anyone have experience with this? How to get it installed, would it work on the SG3100?
