Nagios Support Forum

Hi,

I am trying to find a "Performance Gauge" to visualise CPU, Disk, Memory, etc for Windows server. Is there any addon that can do this currently?

The metrics component allows you to add metrics gauges to a dashboard.

This can be installed through the Admin->Manage Components page, and then accessed from the Home->Metrics menu item.

This component could be really useful for my group. However, the only 'metrics' I am able to choose from are pre populated metrics 'disk usage, cpu usage, memory usage, load, and swap.' There are other plugins/metrics that I use and it would be great if I could add them here.

Is this component configurable in that we can add/remove default 'metrics'? Thanks.

Not currently, although a simple performance gauge dashlet wouldn't be hard to write. What kind of check are you looking to have as a gauge?

Well, there are 'metrics' visible for only a few plugins/commands that came with Nagios. I used the check_nt plugin that came with Nagios xi to create a service management check of diskspace:

$USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 12489 -v $ARG1$ $ARG2$

I've applied this check to about 50 hosts and its working fine. But, it does not show up on the drop down menu for the 'metrics' plugin. The same is true of my memory service check.

Thanks.

Thanks guys, that's what I was looking for... I haven't looked into customizations yet but for now this should do.

Cheers.
