Systeminfo Binding on ARM based devices

[Hans-Jörg Merk]

Hi,

for all those missing HYPERIC SIGAR support on ARM based devices like Cubieboard or RasPi to run openHABs Systeminfo Binding, please find the missing files attached.

If you use different ARM based devices and the files are not working for you, follow these instructions to build your own SIGAR support:

Pakets needed installed :

• Oracle JDK 7
  
• Ant 1.6.5 or higher (Ant installation will also install openjdk which has to be removed !)
• Perl 5.6.1 or higher
• C compiler

cd /usr/src

wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/sigar/files/sigar/1.6/hyperic-sigar-1.6.4-src.tar.gz

tar -zxf hyperic-sigar-1.6.4-src.tar.gz

cd hyperic-sigar-1.6.4-src/bindings/java

ant

Errors or warnings during compile can be ignored

Test your SIGAR executing

java -jar sigar-bin/lib/sigar.jar

You now should have a new shell

sigar>

type help to see possible commands

Copy sigar.jar and libsigar-arm-linux.so to openhab/lib/

Setup your items described here https://code.google.com/p/openhab/wiki/SysteminfoBinding

Enjoy !

Regards

Hans-Jörg

Here are the files for the Odroid-U3 :)

Sorry for all the (deleted) double posts, Google Groups was giving me an error when I tried to post.
After which is magically added all my post attempts anyway...

Hi Ted,

As I don't own this piece of hardware, I can't build the files for it.
You can do this yourself though.
Once you've made the files, please share them here so others can  benefit from your work.

Good luck.

Cheers, Geert

Thanks Geert for quick reply. I am running BusyBox with Linux kernel 2.6. Can you please let me know the build process?

Thanks again & Cheers,
Ted.

[Geert]

The build instructions are in the first post of this thread.
I think I used those when building the files for the Odroid U3.

I'm in no way associated with the Syetem info binding or Sigar, just another end user just like you.

Cheers,
Geert

Hi Hans-Jörg...
had my problems with standard openhab installation to use syinfo @Odroid U3. Did now use your files and all works fine....only one question....is there a simple way (without builidng from source) to avoid so many numbers after the Komma for CPU load....

Hi Norbert,
as far as i know, output can not be changed, just the way it's diplayed in sitemap.

Thanks a lot....just realized after updating to 1.7.0 runtime - that your sysinfo binding 1.6.2 seems to not be compatible....is there a chance to make a 1.7.0 binding available - if its true what i experience that 1.7.0 is not compatible with 1.6.2 binging for sysinfo...

Thanks a lot for your help,
Norbert

Hi,
I am not the author of sysreminfo binding, so I am afraid I can not be of any help.

Hi,

[David Larusso]

Hi!

I have a question how I can show my SD Card storage with the Systeminfo Binding. 

OpenHAB runs on my RaspberryPi with several Bindings including the Systeminfo-Binding.

When I have a Item like this:

Number FileSystemUsagePercent "Speicherplatz benutzt [%.0f %%]" <sd> (System) { systeminfo="DirFiles:600000:/" }

I get wrong stats. Does anyone know which path I have to choose, to get the correct stats?

What I previously did was get the path from my SD Card with

lsblk

But when I add the path of the SD Card I get errors (I think it's because it's not really a directory since I can't jump to it through terminal as well.)

Can anyone help me?
