Re: [Nagios-users] Final stage of getting MRTG working with Nagios v2
I may be wrong here but i thought you had to point the check_mrtg to a rrd
file and not the rrdtool log file.

Hello,
I have been fluffing around with Nagios for a couple of weeks, and have
nearly finally nailed it.
I just have one thing to go.
I am trying to get MRTG to work with Nagios.
I have got MRGT working locally on my machine , and can see it working
bygoing to these 2 sites (locally)
in a browser:
file:///usr/local/mrtg-2/share/mrtg2/icons/index.htmlhttp://m33.mail.qq.com/cgi-bin/frame_html?sid=6AuAxsNrmrW1bmsgr=31ef6d4e0997510a3066d059ab83e370#

I followed the tutorial below to set up my router with Nagios:
http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2008/11/how-to-monitor-network-switch-and-ports-using-nagios/
however I am yet to get MRTG working with Nagios:

Re: [Nagios-users] Final stage of getting MRTG working with Nagios v2
My mrtg.cfg:
HtmlDir: /var/www/mrtg
ImageDir: /var/www/mrtg
LogDir: /var/lib/mrtg
ThreshDir: /var/lib/mrtg
Options[_]: growright, bits
#WorkDir: /var/lib/mrtg
Target[switch]: 10101:pub...@192.168.1.1
MaxBytes[switch]: 1250
Title[switch]: 3750G Gi1/0/1 Traffic Analysis
PageTop[switch]: H1Stats for Gi1/0/1 of 3750G/H1
#
[switch] means log file name is switch.log, and it will be created in LogDir.
10101 is the interface-number that I want to monitor. Use snmpwalk -v2c -c
community-string HOST 1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.1 you'll get lines like this:
IF-MIB::ifName.x = STRING: Gi1/0/1 and x is the interface-number.
and my switch.cfg:
###
define service{
use generic-service
host_name 3750G
service_description Gi 1/0/1 Traffic
check_command
check_local_mrtgtraf!/var/lib/mrtg/switch.log!AVG!50,100!150,200!10
}
###
The first ARG /var/lib/mrtg/switch.log shows where the mrtg log file is.
Make sure it's consistent with the settings in your mrtg.cfg.

Hello Ajay,
Thanks for the reply - however I have no idea what I am looking for in these
files as I am new to all of this.
Would you be able to point me in the right direction?
Kind regards,

Your mrtg is probably not working correctly, check you mrtg.cfg and
/var/spool/mail/root to see what's going on with mrtg.
