Example

Installation

• Copy attached file to /usr/share/munin/plugins
• Symlink it into your node configuration, e.g.
• ln -s /usr/share/munin/plugins/mysql_cachememory/etc/munin/plugins/mysql_cachememory
• If you've got other mysql plugins working, this one will use the same configuration.
• restart the munin node

Configuration

Chances are good you've already got other mysql plugins configured and working. If so, you don't need to do any further configuration. Otherwise, ensure your /etc/munin/plugin-conf.d/munin-node file contains something like this

[mysql*]
user root
env.mysqlopts --defaults-extra-file=/etc/mysql/debian.cnf

The options are whatever mysqladmin will need to obtain status variables. On Debian, you can use the one above, or you could pass a username and password instead.
