how can monitor MQ with nagios

[rkennedy]

I believe what @hsmith was talking about, is to run the vb script on windows over command prompt to make sure this is the result you're looking for.

See this here in your nsclient.ini file:

Code: Select all

[/settings/external scripts/scripts]
check_msmq = cscript.exe //T:30 //NoLogo scripts\\check_msmq.vbs $ARG1$

Instead of "C:\Program Files\NSClient++\scripts\check_mqstatuschannel.vbs" all you need is scripts\\check_msmq.vbs and pay special attention to the double \\

See this here:
check_msmq =

Thats the name of the command you are calling. You could code in all eight commands separately:

Code: Select all

[/settings/external scripts/scripts]
check_msmq_1 = cscript.exe //T:30 //NoLogo scripts\\check_msmq.vbs KBID.REQUEST.MANAGER CHKBID.INTERNALS
check_msmq_2 = cscript.exe //T:30 //NoLogo scripts\\check_msmq.vbs KBID.REQUEST.MANAGER CMSREQ.TO.KBID
check_msmq_3 = cscript.exe //T:30 //NoLogo scripts\\check_msmq.vbs KBID.REQUEST.MANAGER KBID.REQUEST.CHL
check_msmq_4 = cscript.exe //T:30 //NoLogo scripts\\check_msmq.vbs KBID.REQUEST.MANAGER KBID.TO.CMSREQ
check_msmq_5 = cscript.exe //T:30 //NoLogo scripts\\check_msmq.vbs KBID.RESPONSE.MANAGER CHKBID.INTERNALS
check_msmq_6 = cscript.exe //T:30 //NoLogo scripts\\check_msmq.vbs KBID.RESPONSE.MANAGER CMSRES.TO.KBID
check_msmq_7 = cscript.exe //T:30 //NoLogo scripts\\check_msmq.vbs KBID.RESPONSE.MANAGER KBID.RESPONSE.CHL
check_msmq_8 = cscript.exe //T:30 //NoLogo scripts\\check_msmq.vbs KBID.RESPONSE.MANAGER KBID.TO.CMSRES

Then restart the NSClient++ service.

Make your command this:

Code: Select all

define command {
command_name check_nrpe
command_line $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 5666 -t 30 -c $ARG1$
}

Make your services this:

Code: Select all

define service{
use 			generic-service
host_name 		Chakavak
service_description 	KBID.REQUEST.MANAGER CHKBID.INTERNALS
process_perf_data 1
check_command 		check_nrpe!check_msmq_1
} 

define service{
use 			generic-service
host_name 		Chakavak
service_description 	KBID.REQUEST.MANAGER CMSREQ.TO.KBID
process_perf_data 1
check_command 		check_nrpe!check_msmq_2
} 

define service{
use 			generic-service
host_name 		Chakavak
service_description 	KBID.REQUEST.MANAGER KBID.REQUEST.CHL
process_perf_data 1
check_command 		check_nrpe!check_msmq_3
} 

define service{
use 			generic-service
host_name 		Chakavak
service_description 	KBID.REQUEST.MANAGER KBID.TO.CMSREQ
process_perf_data 1
check_command 		check_nrpe!check_msmq_4
} 

define service{
use 			generic-service
host_name 		Chakavak
service_description 	KBID.RESPONSE.MANAGER CHKBID.INTERNALS
process_perf_data 1
check_command 		check_nrpe!check_msmq_5
} 

define service{
use 			generic-service
host_name 		Chakavak
service_description 	KBID.RESPONSE.MANAGER CMSRES.TO.KBID
process_perf_data 1
check_command 		check_nrpe!check_msmq_6
} 

define service{
use 			generic-service
host_name 		Chakavak
service_description 	KBID.RESPONSE.MANAGER KBID.RESPONSE.CHL
process_perf_data 1
check_command 		check_nrpe!check_msmq_7
} 

define service{
use 			generic-service
host_name 		Chakavak
service_description 	KBID.RESPONSE.MANAGER KBID.TO.CMSRES
process_perf_data 1
check_command 		check_nrpe!check_msmq_8
} 

Then restart Nagios.

1 - if i want to say nagios chk my MQ service every 3min what do i have to do ?
2- how can add a dashbord for example when login with user1 just see MQ ( chakavak) status ?

Best regards
Babak

[rkennedy]

Change the normal_check_interval from 10 to 3. This will have it check every 3 minutes.

[baber]

thanks

but i want just say Chakavak chk every 3min other service chk 10min

and the other question

how can send sms nagios alaram (when one of my service down) ? can nagios do this ?

i have a sms server how can i say nagios send my alarm to sms server (from a tcp port) and sms server send alaram to my mobile

[rkennedy]

but i want just say Chakavak chk every 3min other service chk 10min

Can you please clarify on this?

how can send sms nagios alaram (when one of my service down) ? can nagios do this ?

Does your SMS server have an API that you can build a script to work with?

[hsmith]

but i want just say Chakavak chk every 3min other service chk 10min

You can specify it on the individual services.

how can send sms nagios alaram (when one of my service down) ? can nagios do this ?

Yes, you can write a command that sends it to your SMS server. Here's a good example: http://www.unixmen.com/send-nagios-aler ... using-sms/

(from a tcp port) and sms server

How do you send messages to your server normally? What kind of server is it?

[baber]

forget sms

i want nagios send my notification such as txt string to a server with define tcp socket

Best regards

So you do not want SMS alerts anymore? Generally, notifications are what core will send out.

You should be able to create a script, and define a custom command for it. You can reference the variables similar to how our notify-host-by-email command goes out.

Code: Select all

define command {
       command_name                             notify-host-by-email
       command_line                             /usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** Nagios Monitor XI Alert *****\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\nHost: $HOSTNAME$\nState: $HOSTSTATE$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nInfo: $HOSTOUTPUT$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n" | /bin/mail -s "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ Host Alert: $HOSTNAME$ is $HOSTSTATE$ **" $CONTACTEMAIL$
}

So, for your command definition you would need to create something similar to this -

Code: Select all

define command {
       command_name                             notify-host-by-tcp
       command_line                             /usr/local/nagios/libexec/yourscript $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ $HOSTNAME$ $HOSTSTATE$ $HOSTADDRESS$ $HOSTOUTPUT$ $LONGDATETIME$
}

This should push that information as an input to yourscript. From there, you can send the data however you'd like.
