Start reporting metrics to NewRelic by running the following.

Which samples metrics every period of length duration as set within configuration.
It is recommended to initiate plugin as a background task, run via a scheduler (ex. cron job) or using any other approach appropriate for your environment.
Running with -h flag will emit usage instructions for running plugin.
newrelic_marklogic.py -h
usage: ./newrelic_marklogic.py [-h] [-c config file] [-l log file] -h print usage instructions (this message) -c config file (default: newrelic_marklogic.conf) -l log file (default: newrelic_marklogic.log)
Usage
The configuration file drives all newrelic-marklogic-plugin features and is split into several sections.
The ‘marklogic’ section contains connection details to MarkLogic server and Management REST API.
[marklogic] # Scheme to use when accessing MarkLogic management REST API (http|https). scheme = http # Host to use when accessing MarkLogic management REST API (FQDN hostname). host = localhost # Port to use when accessing MarkLogic management REST API. port = 8002 # Authentication to use when accessing MarkLogic management REST API (BASIC|DIGEST). auth= DIGEST # Username to use when accessing MarkLogic management REST API. user = admin # Password to use when accessing MarkLogic management REST API. pass = admin
The ‘newrelic’ section specifies the NewRelic license key. Optionally you may nominate a proxy for accessing the NewRelic Plugin API.
[newrelic] # Your NewRelic license key. key = **************************************** # Proxy (ex. http://10.10.1.10:3128). http_proxy =
The ‘plugin’ section defines sample period for updating NewRelic, as well as the logging level for emitting messages about plugin operation.

summary_status (True|False): retrieve local cluster summary status.
databases (list of databases): retrieve database detailed status.
hosts_summary_status (True|False): retrieve summary of all hosts status.
hosts (list of hosts): retrieve host detailed status.
forests_summary_status (True|False): retrieve summary of all forests status.
forests (list of forests): retrieve forest detailed status.
groups (list of groups): retrieve group detailed status.
servers_summary_status (True|False): retrieve summary of all servers status.
servers (list of servers): retrieve server detailed status.
