Support for MySQL
by Ghyslain Tissot
Hello,
Looking at RHQ and was wondering if support for MySQL was in the plans,
possibly v4? Just see Oracle and PostgreSQL mentionned.
Thanks

Configuration syncing between RHQ servers
by Lukas Krejci
Hi,
this email is to start the discussions about a new feature we're contemplating
for RHQ - the ability to export and import "configuration" of the server. I
use the term "sync" for merely being able to export something and later be
able to import "it" to another server.
There is a wiki page documenting what parts of RHQ could theoretically be
synced:
http://wiki.rhq-
project.org/display/RHQ/Design+-+Configuration+synchronization.
This page also hints at the problems we are likely going to face when
implementing sync for various entities. Please read through it go get an idea
about the current thinking about the feature.
I'd be very much interested in gathering as much user input as possible so
that we implement features that will help your real-life needs.
It is important to note that this feature will deal with the configuration
data and there are no assumptions about the inventory of the two servers. They
may and most certainly will differ but that should not hinder the ability to
synchronize the configurations of the two servers.
In particular, I am interested in getting answers to the following questions:
1) What parts of RHQ would you like to sync between RHQ servers (below is a
list of all exportable "entities". Please say yes or no at each, ideally with
an explanation why and how you'd like to use it)?
- server configuration
- users
- roles
- metric templates
- alert templates
- content sources
- repos
- packages
- dyna groups
- plugins
- configuration, connection settings of a resource
- metric schedules of a resource
- alert definitions of a resource
2) How granular should the export be?
- all or nothing - i.e. "true" sync
- per "subsystem" (i.e. all users&roles, all templates, content sources &
repos & packages, ...)
- pick and choose individual entities
3) How segmented should the export be?
- lump different entity types together in one export file
- export per "subsystem"
4) When should the import be run?
- during RHQ server installation
- any time
Your feedback is appreciated.
Thanks,
Lukas

RHQ not at the context root
by Steve Millidge
By default RHQ runs under Root context in the servlet container - my
customer would like to change this.
When I update the application.xml configured <context-root>/</context-root>
to something else in the configuration I discover that there are lots of
hard coded paths in the user interface, links are broken & static content is
absent.
Has anyone successfully configured RHQ to run under a different context?

Joining IRC via web chat
by Heiko W.Rupp
Hi,
as you know developers are hanging out on irc://irc.freenode.net/#rhq
If you can not use irc protocol from where you are (e.g because the
firewall is blocking it), you can still join the conversations via
web frontend at
http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=rhq
Hope to see you online
Heiko

windows events snapshot
by John Mazzitelli
Just wanted to send this out as an FYI, one user on our #rhq chat room
was asking about Windows Events and being able to see them in RHQ, and
being able to sort them based on the different event types that Windows
has (like Application, System, Security, etc).
You can do this in RHQ, as you see by the attached screenshot. In my
case, I had shutdown then restarted a Postres DB running on my Windows
XP box (it was NOT the DB that was backing RHQ :)
You can see the different events the agent captured. You'll notice
Application and System Windows Events types were logged - you can sort
by the "Source Location" in case you want to see them grouped by event type.

Tell us your story about RHQ
by Heiko W.Rupp
Hi,
we as RHQ team would like to know more about how you are using RHQ, which part
you like and especially what you don't like.
Topics could be (but are not limited to):
Have you written specific plugins (that you may even want to share)?
How does your environment look like?
How many admins are using RHQ? Is each on its own account?
Are you integrating alerts into systems like trouble ticket systems?
What are you missing from RHQ?
Are there areas of RHQ where you would like to help?
Please take the time to write a few lines, so that we can improve RHQ in the
right areas
Thanks
Heiko
