Site24x7 Agent Dockerfile

This repository is meant to build the base image for a Site24x7 Agent container. You will have to use the resulting image to configure and run the Agent.

Quick Start

Run the below command in your server to monitor the host via site24x7-agent container

docker run -d --name site24x7-agent \
  -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro \
  -v /proc/:/host/proc/:ro \
  -v /sys:/host/sys/:ro \
  -e KEY=<device_key> \
  site24x7/docker-agent:latest

Configuration

Hostname

By default the agent container will use the Name field found in the docker info command from the host as a hostname. To change this behavior you can update the hostname field in /opt/site24x7/monagent/conf/monagent.cfg. The easiest way for this is to use the HOSTNAME environment variable (see below).

docker run -d --name site24x7-agent \
  -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro \
  -v /proc/:/host/proc/:ro \
  -v /sys:/host/sys/:ro \
  -e KEY=<device_key> \
  -e HOSTNAME=<host_name> \
  site24x7/docker-agent:latest

Limitations

Only volumes that are mounted into the container can have the disk metrics being reported
