Since version 0.0.51 of sitesummary , there is experimental code to generate Nagios configuration based on the collected information. To enable this, install nagios3 and nagios-plugins-standard, edit /etc/default/nagios3 to include 'NAGIOSCFG=/etc/nagios3/sitesummary.cfg' and run the sitesummary cron job. Running these commands as root normally does the trick.
aptitude install nagios3 nagios-plugins-standard echo 'NAGIOSCFG="/etc/nagios3/sitesummary.cfg"' >> /etc/default/nagios3 sitesummary-client /etc/cron.daily/sitesummary /etc/init.d/nagios3 restart The current version of the code run all Nagios checks locally, so it only work on a single machine. The plan is to change this to use NRPE to work with a network of machines. The version in lenny-test should work if you want to give it a try. :) At the moment, the sitesummary generated configuration is checking slightly less than the Nagios configuration included in debian-edu-config. The version in svn check slightly more, but I hoped to have the NRPE stuff working before uploading that version. Patches welcome, of course. :) Happy hacking, -- Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
