Error loading subagent module "mysql.nsm"

[Filipp Sudanov]

The software is split into several packages, to avoid pulling dependencies for things that are not needed. MySQL subagent should be in netxms-agent-mysql package, and you also might need netxms-dbdrv-mysql.

Thanks for your reply, Filipp

So, I can install additional packages with command like this?
dnf install netxms-agent-mysql

Now I have a small following question: is there a comprehensive list of additional packages that can be installed?
Before opening this topic, I tried to find information on how to add a package/module separately after installation of "main" NetXMS agent package, but didn't succeed.

Hope you can share some resources regarding this.

Thanks again and in advance

We don't have a list in the documentation, just some chapters mention that specific subagents are needed, e.g. Network Service monitoring requires netsvc.
If you check list of available packages with dnf, you'll see them all:

netxms-agent-* are different subagents, netxms-dbdrv-* drivers for various databases (used both by server for it's database and by agent to perform queries to databases, netxms-base has common things needed both for server and agent, netxms-reporting is the reporting engine, that's basically it

For some reason netxms-agent-mysql is not listed among available subagents and it cannot be installed via dnf 

[andrew@a02 ~]$ sudo dnf install netxms-agent-mysql
[sudo] password for andrew:

Try netxms-agent-mariadb, it should be same as MySQL

[andy]

Installation of netxms-agent-mariadb worked, I have mysql.nsm now

But there is another error stating that mysql.ddr is missing:

Jul 31 19:43:18 nxagentd[240328]: [db.drv             ] Unable to load database driver module "mysql.ddr": /usr/lib64/netxms/dbdrv/mysql.ddr: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Jul 31 19:43:18 nxagentd[240328]:  MYSQL: failed to load database driver
Jul 31 19:43:18 nxagentd[240328]: [subagents          ] Initialization of subagent "MYSQL" (/usr/lib64/netxms/mysql.nsm) failed

This driver is not listed among netxms packages ("dnf search netxms")
Also I searched for a solution among related topics, but couldn't find matching situation, thus asking for help with this one too

Big thanks for your time

And here is how subagents folder looks like now (just in case)

Hello again, I still couldn’t solve this driver issue myself, any help would be appreciated  :-[

add

[MySQL]
Driver=mariadb

to nxagentd.conf

[andy]

Big thanks Filipp and Alex!

Everything works now!
