 Hi Marc

 Can you elaborate on what you mean by Nagios does not support it 
 directly. My understanding is that that the check_nrpe process does not 
 have such provisions to get the data in the manner that i have asked 
 for. Please correct me if i am wrong.

 Also i checked PNP4Nagios , it has support for monitoring on linux boxes 
 

 PNP4Nagios can create graphs based on performance data provided by nagios 
 plugins.
 PNP is not limited to linux hosts.

It depends what OS and platform you're running it on and how you like to
install your Perl modules.

http://cpan.perl.org is always a good place to look if you do the
compile-from-source thing, but if you didn't know that already I'd
suggest using a pre-built package for your OS distribution of choice,
whatever that may be.

Thanks for your help.

 Nagios doesn't support this directly but there are addons that provide this 
 functionality. PNP4Nagios, NagiosGraph, etc. Look for them at 
 http://exchange.nagios.org.

 Hi Marc
 
 Can you elaborate on what you mean by Nagios does not support it directly.

Nagios only cares about state: OK, WARNING, CRITICAL, UNKNOWN, UP, DOWN. That's 
all it looks at. The human-readable plugin output is just for humans, nagios 
doesn't pay any attention to it. Each plugin may also provide Performance Data 
that can be passed to an addon for further processing. The performance data 
varies by plugin but usually contains the information you're wanting to graph. 
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/perfdata.html might help clarify...

 My understanding is that that the check_nrpe process does not have such 
 provisions to get the data in the manner that i have asked for. Please 
 correct me if i am wrong.

check_nrpe supports the passing of performance data... The key is whether the 
plugin you are executing provides it and whether you have an addon that looks 
for it.

 Also i checked PNP4Nagios , it has support for monitoring on linux boxes , Do 
 we have anything similar for monitoring windows boxes as well from nagios. I 
 checked NRPE and it uses the check_nt process to get the data from windows 
 boxes. Does it show graphs similar to what PNP4nagios does.

check_nt does not because it is not a graphing add-on in the same way that 
check_nrpe isn't. You're confused about what each tool does. check_nrpe and 
check_nt are just transports. They establish a connection to a remote box, ask 
the remote box to run a plugin and they then return that output to nagios for 
further processing.

I don't use any of the graphing addons so my knowledge of them is secondhand. I 
also monitor very few windows boxes so I don't know if the nagios tools on them 
support providing performance data but I would be surprised if one or more of 
them didn't. I would also be surprised if one or more of the graphing addons 
didn't process performance data received from Windows systems.

Best I can tell you is to Google, read the docs for the various graphing addons 
and/or wait for further input that may come from others on this list who use 
those packages...

[Nagios-users] Getting parameters and plotting them in terms of % (Percentage)

2010-01-06 Thread Jatin Davey
Hi all

I am seeing that graphs getting shown for the corresponding service that 
i define but they are shown in terms of only 4 points , either critical 
, ok , warning or indeterminate.

I need to see the graphs in terms of utilization values such as:

CPU -- % used (out of 100%)
Memory -- Total memory (Used and free memory in terms of MB or KB etc)
Disk Usage -- Used Disk space and free disk space (In terms of MB or GB etc)
Network I/O -- Packets sent or received etc

Please provide any pointers on how get this using Nagios.

Thanks
Jatin
