Checking out http://www.observium.org/wiki/Application/MySQL#Requirements and seems pretty straight forward.

I have my server running, added that box and see it collecting data now. php5-cli and php-mysql are installed on both the server and mysql server I wish to monitor, but nothing has been added and not sure how to force check, add, etc.

Docs are simple enough;  I created the user with access on the remote server.  Then the steps are simply;

Copy the mysql script from scripts/agent-local/ in your observium install to /usr/local/check_mk_agent/local/ (/usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/ on Debian systems) the server you wish to monitor.

The remote server is running ubuntu, so I create a folder;
/usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local with 2 files;
mysql (script)
mysql.cnf

I can run the script locally and get a lot of data (here is a sample);
root@mysql101:/usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local# ./mysql 
<<<mysql>>>
a0:13362926
a1:50929
a2:4796992
a3:287789

So is it something on the server end I need to add/edit?

Tnx
