README.md

monasca-setup

This script will detect running services and configure monasca-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.
