Solaris Server no perf graphs

Post by BanditBBS »

I added a Solaris server to the mix and am using NRPE to monitor it. The only service that has performance graphs with it is Ping. Load, Memory and the others that have graphs with a linux server are not doing it for Solaris. I am using NRPE for the checks and the one difference is command line parameters are not enabled for the Solaris server. That wouldn't be causing the issue, would it?

Thanks

As long as the $ARG$less checks are setup correctly in the host's nrpe.cfg, you should receice performance data. Go to --> Home --> service details --> [one of the host's services] --> advanced tab

Is the "Performance data" field under "advanced status details" blank?

Do the commands return performance data when run from the command line?

Yes, it is blank!

Here is what I get back when I run it myself

Code: Select all

[clarkj@svwddnagios01 libexec]$ ./check_nrpe -H 10.100.108.122 -c check_load
OK - load average: 0.23, 0.30, 0.32

One other bit of information:

This is the first machine I am sending to a specific gearman worker due to firewall rules. The check is getting to it and the XI server is receiving the response, but is there anything special i have to do for performance graphs to work?

There is no performance data in that check. You should see something like:

Code: Select all

OK - load average: 0.16, 0.11, 0.09|load1=0.160;15.000;30.000;0; load5=0.110;10.000;20.000;0; load15=0.090;5.000;10.000;0;
Is the check_load plugin you are using on the Solaris box compiled from the standard Nagios plugins, or is it from the Exchange?

The important part is the pipe " | " Everything after that in the return string is perf data.

You know, I have no clue. I'm just trying to get all monitoring here under control. Adding a bunch of stuff in a current Nagios Core installation into my XI install. I'll be working to just get everything over as is for now. Once completed, I'll put this on the list of things I have to correct as it is more important to get the monitoring combined first.

Thanks for the information!

You are very Welcome, and best of luck!

One last thing. You can run the check right from the Solaris box and see if you get perf data, if so, then maybe the gearman worker is the issue. If not, then your plugin does not return perf data.

Code: Select all

cd /usr/local/nagios/libexec
./check_load -w 15,10,5 -c 30,20,10
