Nagios Support Forum

Hello Experts,

I am using "Nagios Core" since 4 years & happy to have it. Currently, Nagios xi Limited edition has been implemented for testing purpose & I would like to monitor below things using Nagios xi


1) Monitor NAS/SAN Storage, which doesn't contain any type of OS. Main tasks include,
* To monitor "temperature" of NAS/SAN Storage.
* To monitor total available LUNs (Logical Unit Numbers) of NAS/SAN Storage.
* To monitor all configured RAID arrays of NAS/SAN Storage.
* Total used & available space of NAS/SAN Storage.

2) Monitor "failure of single "physical memory module". For Example, IBM Power Server is having total 32 GB of Physical RAM. More descrpptively, 8 GB RAM Module x 4 physical memory slots.

Now, If 3rd physical memory module crash, Server's work don't affect but "Nagios Server" should generate alert.

Is it possible to justify both above critical tasks? If anyone is having solution, kindly share it with me.

Advanced Thanks,
Nishith N.Vyas

1) I am guessing the machine has some kind of underlying OS. Is it SNMP enables? You may be able to monitor these with SNMP.

2) This would be possible if you have some way of getting this information from the server. When this happens does it log it some where? Does it generate an SNMP Trap?

SNMP has already been enabled on all SAN/NAS storages. I am just in need of Nagios Plugins,which can fulfill my requirement.

Any ideas & links?

You could just use our generic SNMP Wizard
