Re: [Nagios-users] smart monitoring and Dell PERC RAID?

2008-03-31 Thread Scott Ehrlich
As a followup, I have been reading up on the archives from 
www.mail-archive.com of past postings to this list.  My servers are 2950s 
using PERC 5/i controllers, latest firmware.

As an aside, anyone successfully monitoring Dell MD300i storage devices 
hanging off a PE2950?

I'll keep digging for answers.

Thanks.

Scott

[Nagios-users] smart monitoring and Dell PERC RAID?

2008-03-31 Thread Scott Ehrlich
I have a standard ol' PC running linux that I'm using to monitor some 
servers and other network devices.  Both servers are Dell boxes with PERC 
controllers and hardware RAID of SCSI drives.  I'd to learn if anyone has 
successfully configured nagios to monitor the health of such a 
configuration?  (I presume someone has, just a matter of how you did it).

Smartctl on the servers claims the scsi drives do not support smart.  I 
configured the servers and have full access.

What options does nagios give for monitoring disk health for such a 
configuration?

Thanks.

That is a great site.  I'm not new to using Nagios, but I am new to 
integrating (and eventually writing)  plugins for it.  As I download 
plugins, such as check_smartmon, in what directory do I place them, and 
exactly how do I invoke them from within Nagios?

I have reviewed the standard .cfg files for assistance, but it hasn't been 
obvious to me, yet.

Thanks.

This looks great, but how about SCSI/SAS SMART?

[Nagios-users] Need help to config Nagios for several items...

2008-03-31 Thread Scott Ehrlich
Hello Nagios users and lovers:

I have Nagios successfully running on a CentOS 5 system, keeping an eye on 
two servers and two printers.

What I'd love to do next is augment what I have with monitoring such as:

- Hard drive health (SMART)

- Printer paper/toner status

- Specific services running on particular parts (i.e. port 9613/udp)

- Temperature of system(if possible)

- Network card activity (if multiple nics, has one failed or is a link 
down and the NIC is good)?


How do I monitor these particulars, or do I need to obtain the specific 
MIB for said device and see if that mib provides said details?

Thanks in advance.

Scott (love Nagios!)
