NuoDB Collection Agent (NuoCA) is included with NuoDB.  When enabled, it collects metrics from your database and can push that data to an output destination of your choosing.

 

These are the options that you may use and their explanations:

# ./opt/nuodb/etc/nuoca/bin/nuoca --help

  CONFIG_FILE    path to NuoCA Collection Config file

We recommend using NuoDB Insights, our graphical monitoring solution, to visualize your NuoCA metrics.  NuoDB Insights is easy to set up - the instructions can be found in the Database Monitoring section of our documentation.
