NRDP and Performance graphs Windows

Post by blariv »

centos 6.3 64bit
manual install of XI - 2012R1.1
no special config


I'm using NRDS to use passive checks of my windows servers which works fine.

the issue I see is that I get "No performance graphs were found for this service." on any of the passive checks.

Is this data even available if not is there a way to graph the data other than using active checks.

active checks do build the graphs.

NRDS will process performance data just fine however I think the default plugins used in NRDS for windows do not return performance data. I'm going to check with the developer to see if he knows of any that return performance data that could be used..

blariv,

Which plugins did you want to return perf data? The ones included don't include perf data as scott mentined, but some on exchange do.

for example:
http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Pl ... at/details

When you run the command manually, everything after the pipe is processed as perf data

For example:

[test@nagios ~]# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H 10.0.0.2 -c check_disk_iostat
Disk iostat| 0 C:AvgDiskQueueLength=0 DiskReadBytesPersec=0 DiskWriteBytesPersec=0 PercentDiskTime=0

Regards,

-Yancy
