Im trying to find the "Check Command" that will return CPU Load as a % load on the cpu. Is there such a command? "Check_Load" seems to return some quantity of services vs cpu running, or something like that and not just a cpu load percentage. Is this list the list of all possible...

Hello lucas.shearer Thanks for following up; we would like to suggest that you reach out to your network team on criteria so they can make changes to the routing, security, and firewall to allow network traffic. Please let us know if there are specifics on this that we can help dial in. Thanks, Per...

Hi You will need to ask your network administrator to open a hole in the firewall. If the URL for the Nagios server starts with http:// they will have to allow traffic to port 80 of your Nagios server. If the URL starts with https:// they will have to allow traffic to port 443 of your Nagios server...

Are the ports open from the external host? xternalhost% nmap -p80,443 nagioshost Are you trying to get HTTP or HTTPS? What do you see when you curl (or whatever)? That's about all that comes to mind... Newbie here. My external machine I'm trying to call the API from is a windows machine, so not sur...

Hello lucas.shearer Want to find out what API data you are trying to gather to help dial things in a bit more.

I also just installed NagiosXI, without changing any settings. So not sure if there is something I needed to change in order to access these API's outside of my network. Or is it possible I need to install more than just the standard Nagios XI full install? As you can tell Im very new to this and al...

Can your XI VM get to other machines? From your XI machine, does: ping some-other-machine-on-your-network or ping 8.8.8.8 work? My first impression is that this might be a default route problem. --Jeffrey yes, ping 8.8.8.8 works... stopped at 9 packets transmitted, 9 received, 0% packet loss.. when...

Ive setup Nagios XI on a VM. I can call the API's from within the machine, but can't outside of the machine. Or connect to the web UI outside of the machine. The VM itself is ubuntu, without any firewalls enabled or SELinux enabled. Why can't I get successful API calls from another machine when port...
