Download  riemann

wget http://aphyr.com/riemann/riemann-0.2.4.tar.bz2
tar xvfj riemann-0.2.4.tar.bz2
cd riemann-0.2.4


learn clojure :)

to save time:


gem install riemann-tools --no-rdoc
gem install riemann-dash --no-rdoc

Starting riemann-dash:

riemann-dash
in the command line will start the dashboard on the default Sinatra port and bind to 127.0.0.1 .
To change that behaviour, in the directory you are running the command, make a config.rb file with:
set :port, <PORT>
set :bind, "<IP>"
the config file will be used automaticly as long as it in the working directory.
Starting Riemann server:


Download and extract ...
I the created directory run  bin/riemann

The server will start on 127.0.0.1:5555 port. (netstat -nltp for validation)
To change the address:
In the file etc/riemann.config change the [host "<IP>"]
...
; Listen on the local interface over TCP (5555), UDP (5555), and websockets
; (5556)
(let [host "0.0.0.0"]
  (tcp-server :host host)
  (udp-server :host host)
  (ws-server  :host host))
...
Starting Riemann health agent

riemann-health -t linux-health -h <RIEMANN_SERVER>
