FastCGI Process Manager

FPM (FastCGI Process Manager) is an alternative to PHP FastCGI implementation with some additional features (mostly) useful for heavy-loaded sites. php - FPM is one of the most popular open source programming languages on the internet used for web development in platforms such as Magento, WordPress or Drupal.

Prerequisites

1. Edit the file /etc/nginx/sites-available/default and uncomment the php command lines and place the appropriate socket path to php-fpm socket file as follows:

   location ~ \.php$ 
   {
   include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
   #
   # # With php-fpm (or other unix sockets):
   fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock;
   # # With php-cgi (or other tcp sockets):
   # fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
   }
   

2. Add the server status in default nginx file:

   location ~ ^/(status|ping)$ 
   {
       allow 127.0.0.1;
       include fastcgi_params;
       fastcgi_pass   unix:/var/run/php7.2-fpm.sock;
   }
   

3. For Virtual machines, install the Linux agent.

Configuring the credentials

Configure the credentials in the directory /opt/opsramp/agent/conf/app.d/creds.yaml

phpfpm:
- name: phpfpm
  user: <username>
  pwd: <Password>
  encoding-type: plain
  labels:
    key1: val1
    key2: val2
  

Configuring the application

Virtual machine

Configure the application in the directory /opt/opsramp/agent/conf/app/discovery/auto-detection.yaml

- name: php-fpm
  instance-checks:
    service-check:
      - php-fpm
    process-check:
      - php-fpm
    port-check:
      - 80
  

Docker environment

Configure the application in the directory /opt/opsramp/agent/conf/app/discovery/auto-container-detection.yaml

- name: php-fpm
  container-checks:
    image-check:
      - nginx
    port-check:
      - 80
  

Kubernetes environment

Configure the application in config.yaml

- name: php-fpm
  container-checks:
    image-check:
      - nginx
    port-check:
      - 80
