Hi All! We have a couple of NetApp storage applicance that we monitor from the Nagios server. I would like to define service for several of the filesystems, but instead of being services of the Nagios server I would like them to be services of the host that mounts them. One alternative would obviously be to simply create the service and set the host to the other machine and either user an active check on the remote machine or a passive check that is started on the Nagios server and sets the status accordingly.
My boss does not want to install NRPE, so that leaves the passive service. We have about 20 filesystems to monitor and my boss does not like the idea of 20 services attached to the nagios sever like that. My suggestion one a single active service on the nagios machine that checks all of the Netapp filesystems and the sets the status on the respective passive service on the remote host. Can anyone thing of any other alternatives? Any info is appreaciated. BTW, we have nagios 2.5.
