configure monitoring on foam.instageni.gpolab.bbn.com

The BBN FOAM node, foam.instageni.gpolab.bbn.com, should report monitoring data to GMOC using tango-monitor-foam.

We've discussed this on-list. Just making a ticket so it doesn't slip through the cracks while everyone is on vacation.

I'm 80% sure that Chaos already told me this, but I couldn't find anything in my email - what should the contents of the /usr/local/etc/gmoc_monitoring.conf file be for FOAM on the GPO rack?

[chaos@bbn.com]

Yep, i think i did. Anyway:

# This is probably a new sitename for GMOC, and will need to be registered
SITENAME=InstaGENI-BBN

# These are already in gmoc-db, so you shouldn't need to run           
# report_site_metadata or define street addresses or anything
ORGNAME=InstaGENI
POPNAME=gpolab     

HOSTNAME=foam.instageni.gpolab.bbn.com             

Caveat deployer: TMF can't currently handle the FOAM password file being anywhere other than /opt/foam/etc/foampasswd. This will be fixed in the next version, meanwhile just hack the source in the obvious place (and yell if it's not obvious).

Installed and set up. I sent email to gmoc@ with the hash and site name, so in theory once they set this up it will work.

Looks like it did. We're getting data from the aggregate now, and all checks alerted by ​http://monitor.gpolab.bbn.com/nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi?host=TANGO-foam.instageni.gpolab.bbn.com are successful.
