so far the install, etc. went easy there are some good doc's there. I am still understanding the groups, etc. but so far I have the server and 2 remote hosts setup. The load check isn't really to good, so I downloaded the perl one using snmp and from the command line works great, see this example;
[r...@ws6 libexec]# perl ./check_snmp_load.pl -H ipadd -C community -w 3,3,2 -c 4,4,3 -T netsl Load : 5.55 5.04 4.87 : 5.55 > 4 : CRITICAL 5.04 > 4 : CRITICAL 4.87 > 3 : CRITICAL I added the following to the commands.cfg file; define command{ command_name check_snmp_load_v1 command_line $USER1$/check_snmp_load.pl -H $HOSTADDRESS$ $USER7$ -T $ARG1$ -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$ $ARG4$ } on the target machine I put; define service{ use local-service ; Name of service template to use host_name servername service_description Current Load via SNMP check_command check_local_load!5.0,4.0,3.0!10.0,6.0,4.0 } I restarted nagios, saw the new line in the details, but the values are showing as; OK - load average: 0.10, 0.06, 0.01 I did have a shell opened testing the local script at the same time and the load is still around 5. I will have other questions, etc. as I read/play more, but just wanted to get this part done, then look at thresholds, etc. but if anyone is using this script and notice something obvious, please feel free to let me know. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
