Re: [Nagios-users] How to detect MSSQL cluster failover?
Hello Jon: Thank you for the information, I guess the snmp option is the quick and dirty way to go. I have never worked with WMI before, however I it is never late to start. Is it possible to access the MSCluster namespace using NSClient++? We use NSClient++ for accessing performance counters at the moment but we have not experimented with WMI yet.

I need a simple check that tells me when our database cluster fails from physical node X to node physical node Y Has anybody done this? Maybe with a passive check? Any comments or suggestions are appreciated. We've configured IBM Director to forward the alert for that situation to Nagios using an SNMP trap. (Of course this only helps you if you happen to have IBM Director and have configured Nagios to handle incoming traps). -- Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
