iStat Server Plugin for unRAID 5b11+ (Installer)

Featured Replies

Hello all,

 

iStat server is software that allows you to monitor your server stats (cpu/disk/network/etc utilization) from your iOS device.  Concept and some code were ported from the original unMENU plugin.  Thanks to Joe L. and the other authors/contributors.

 

To install, just download the plg file and copy it to your flash drive into the boot/config/plugins folder. Then reboot your server or run "installplg /boot/config/plugins/istatd-0.5.8-noarch-1.1aj.plg" (once files are downloaded, subsequent installs on restart should work fine).  Select "iStat Server" on the Settings tab, in the "Network Services" section to configure...

 

Update 9/19/12:

After a motorcycle accident, I'm back with a minor update.  Thanks go to mrow for providing an updated plugin that provides a missing library introduced in the last version.  It's been available later in the thread, I just moved it to the top of the thread for easier access.  Otherwise, no other functional updates & hence no version # change.  Users should (re-)download this version.

 

Download:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2902950/unRAID/istatd/istatd-0.5.8-noarch-1.1aj.plg

 

Changelog:

1.1 - 20120919 - No version # change

                        - updated to provide missing library (thanks for the mod mrow!!!)

1.1 - 20120422 - updated to istatd 0.5.8 (thanks for the new version speeding_ant!!!)

                        - misc UI changes (simplefeatures)

                        - added zlib (v1.2.5) to package list

1.0 - 20111023 - initial release

 

Notes/Known Issues:

  • Temperature & fan speeds may or may not work for you depending on whether you have the appropriate kernel modules loaded (e.g. via modprobe)

 

Thanks for the plugin. Is there an alternative for Android phones?

Thank you for making this!  Working fine here!

Sorry, not that I know of, but that's probably b/c I don't have one.  So I'll definitely defer to those that do on this one :)...

My iphone istat displays all the normal stuff plus:

 

1. cpu and motherboard temp

2. cpu and chasis fans perfectly.....

--------------------------

 

Dont suppose you have one for Teamspeak 3?

I have it (Ts3)working on my system but have to install by hand...  a plug in would be Fantastic....

 

Thanks again!

 

Joe

When I try to run the installplg it comes back and tells me no command found or something like that.

Notes/Known Issues:

  • Temperature & fan speeds may or may not work for you depending on whether you have the appropriate kernel modules loaded (e.g. via modprobe)
  • The layout is a bit "off" when used with the speeding_ant's "Simple Features" plugin.  Everything's still functional though.  I'll work to get this looking better when used in conjunction with that plugin
  • There is a newer version of iStat Server (0.5.7), but it needs to be compiled.  If anyone wants to compile it :), I'd be more than happy to include it in the package.

What version of unRAID are you using?  Are you running v5b11 or newer?  The installplg command was introduced with that version.

 

Thanks!

plugin isn't starting for me, from the log:

 

Nov 24 09:47:26 Tower logger: installing plugin: istatd-0.5.6-noarch-1aj

Nov 24 09:47:26 Tower logger:  file /boot/packages/libxml2-2.7.6-i486-1.txz: downloading from http://slackware.cs.utah.edu/pub/slackware/slackware-13.1/slackware/l/libxml2-2.7.6-i486-1.txz ... bad download, deleting

 

can i download the file manually?

thanks!

 

You can download the file directly from:

 

http://slackware.cs.utah.edu/pub/slackware/slackware-13.1/slackware/l/libxml2-2.7.6-i486-1.txz

 

Please save the *.txz file in /boot/packages/

 

and then try the installplg command again.

 

PS.  There are 3 files that need to be downloaded.  The above libxml2 is the first of them.  The other two are:

 

http://members.chello.at/starcat/packages/istat-0.5.6.tgz

which needs to be saved as : /boot/packages/istatd-0.5.6.tgz

 

and

 

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2902950/unRAID/istatd/istatd.png

which needs to be saved as: /boot/config/plugins/istatd/istatd.png

 

Please make sure that all 3 files exist before running the installplg command.

 

Out of curiosity, is your unraid server connected to the internet?  I'm just wondering why it would fail to download the file.  Perhaps the mirror had a hiccup when you tried to get the file...

 

Anyways :), please let me know how it goes.

 

thanks!

thanks ajax, manually downloading the files has worked. not sure why it didn't work on the server, it is connected to the net - downloads via sabnzb work fine...

Can someone tell me where to find a HOWTO to install the istat-Server on unraid?

Whats up with this files?

Is there an installer or something? How is this working?

 

Thanks for your help

New version posted.  Link is in original post.

 

Special thanks goes to speeding_ant for compiling 0.5.8 of istatd for inclusion in this plugin!

 

thanks!

Nice work! Well done on a great plugin  :)

is there any info on what this plugin's specs/info are for the possibility of making a android app to read from it.

 

I got a couple of friends that are app programmers, maybe I can get them to make us one....

 

Thanks

Myk

 

installed here, but can't start

 

i have this error

Hmm...  Silverfox, what version of unraid are you using?  I was under the impression that it was already installed on newer unraids...  Either that, or another package has installed it on my machine (which is probably more likely...)

 

Can you try the following from the command line and let me know what it returns?

 

strings /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 | grep GLIBC

 

Also, do you have unmenu installed?  If so, in the package manager, can you tell me what it says under the following 2 packages (e.g. installed, downloaded, etc...):

 

  • "C" compiler & development tools (if there's a difference between our servers, I'm thinking this is it...)
  • cxxlibs-6.0.9-i486.tgz library accidentally left out of unRAID 4.4-beta2 through 4.5beta5

version 5.0-beta14

Thanks for confirming with the strings command.  You appear to be missing the version that istatd is looking for. 

 

I'll try to locate a minimal package that installs the missing lib...

 

thanks for your patience!

Any updates on this? Mine won't start either.

Bump. Really annoying the author is not providing any updates about those of us with issues and is not making the old version available to use until it is fixed.

Managed to get it working on my own. I found the dependency that needs to be updated for it to work for those with `GLIBCXX_3.4.14' not found error.

 

I created an updated plugin that downloads and installs the dependency. You can just overwrite your old one.

istatd-0.5.8-noarch-1.1aj.plg.zip

Thanks mrow! That worked perfectly. Now to just get this "modprobe" thing working so I can monitor temps.

Install the unMENU perl package and then run the command "sensors-detect". If it doesn't find sensors for you, you may want to download the latest version of sensors-detect. The version included in unraid is 2 years old for some reason... Then add the modprobe drivers it finds to your go script so they load whenever you reboot.

I had it working fine on 5b12a and 5b14, but since updating to rc versions, I seem  to have lost iStat connectivity.

 

I have it set up both via a WAN IP address with port 5109, and via the local 192.168.1.106 address.  Both used to work, now both give invalid pass code when I try to connect.  I have installed it via unMenu, and have set up configuration there.  The pass code unMenu shows is what I am still using to connect remotely, but it fails.  I also went in and edited both my servers pointers on the iPhone, and pressed test, and I get a green check mark for each one. 

 

(updated, reinstalled and reset the code, and now it works again???)

 

Should I be getting away from the unMenu package installer, and starting to learn about the new plugin process?
