Hi everyone, if Koha is aiming to replace zebra with elastic search, I think it would be best to use ELK Stack for log parsing and sending notifications. What do you think? On Thu, Dec 17, 2020 at 5:48 AM Fridolin SOMERS < fridolin.somers@biblibre.com> wrote:
Hi,
Indeed good idea.
Maybe we could add a Koha plugin hook to add datas to this HEA. So poeple can add specific datas that may be private for the general HEA.

Hi Arthur,
Thanks for your email.
I use Ansible quite a bit already, so I see where you're coming from, but I was thinking of something more elegant. I was also thinking about something that would allow for more private data collection than Hea.
Although when I put it that way... it could be interesting to update C4::UsageStats::ReportToCommunity() to actually take a list of URLs, and

Hi there,
for this kind of purpose I would recommend using Ansible scripts to ship commands to several Koha's at once.
Using Ansible only needs an ssh connexion to each of your Koha servers, no specific software or agent to install on the targets, then commands are simple well-known bash.
It is also possible to group targets (manually) based on OS, web-server software or other tweaks to deploy specific sets of commands to each of your groups, this is very handy.
I personally don't use it because our environment is very heterogeneous, making grouping difficult and prone to error (and then we would have a lot of groups of a single instance...)
Best,

Hi all,
For a while, I’ve been thinking that it might be good to have an open
Behalf Of Arthur source “Koha Command and Control” for managing Koha instances.
While managing 1 Koha is not too much work, it’s considerably more
difficult to manage 10, 100, or 1000 Koha instances, especially across different servers, geographic locations, timezones, etc.
I am sure that most vendors have mechanisms in place for checking the
system preference values for all their instances (I have scripts for this sort of thing), what about tracking Zebra queries that contain syntax errors (bug 27139)?
I know that we have HEA for sharing a lot of data, but there is some
data (like search queries) that I don’t think most libraries would want to share with the community. But Koha administrators, especially vendors with a large number of Koha instances, want to know when problems arise.
I suppose that a person could just implement log file scanning for
Zebra, but I was thinking about something more structured, which could be analyzed to provide data quality control. My thought is that we’d configure Koha to push events to the “Koha Command and Control” (which would be configured by the Koha system administrator – not librarian level). If Zebra logs a ‘ZOOM error 10014 "CCL parsing error"’, we probably want to tell the Koha user that we found no search results (nice user experience), but we want to flag with a Koha administrator that there is a problem. If Koha administrators (e.g. Koha vendors) start receiving a lot of these errors via the Koha CnC (Command and Control), they’re better placed to raise Bugzilla reports/write patches.
Anyway, it’s just an idea. Probably too ambitious. But I think that it
would be wise for us to start thinking more about the *data* generated by Koha and how we can use that data to improve Koha. I don’t think we need machine learning algorithms to do the data analysis (yet), but I think having automated data collection, organisation, and reporting would be useful.
I have to run but I’ll keep thinking about it. I know I have more grand ideas than I have time, but I could put some thought into what a system might look like, and maybe throw something together locally first before suggesting anyone else get on board…
