Check Citrix Netscaler Servicegroups

[very_best]

Hello!

I am using check_netscaler.pl for monitoring my Citrix-Netscaler.
It works fine, but I have problme with monitoring the servicegroups:

for example:
./sbgag_check_netscaler.pl -H <ip-address> --extra-opts=netscaler@<file for login> -s -C state -o servicegroup -n SVC_GRP_SMS-PASSCODE
NetScaler CRITICAL - servicegroup SVC_GRP_SMS-PASSCODE down; (0 up, 1 down, 0 oos, 0 unkown) | up=0;;;0; down=1;;;0; oos=0;;;0; unkown=0;;;0;

but the servicegroup is up.

this problem I have only with the checks of servicegroups.

does enyone have the same problem or can tell me what I can do?

Can you share a copy of the sbgag_check_netscaler.pl plugin you are using?

[rkennedy]

Are you referencing a nagios servicegroup, or is it a servicegroup within netscaler?

Thanks @rkennedy!

@very_best let us know if you have additional questions.

Hello!

I was not in office last week.

I have uploaded the plugin. This is the original Plugin from https://github.com/slauger/check_netscaler.


@rkennedy: Yes this is a servicegroup in Netscaler

All this plugin really does is call the nitro API (http://<ip-address>/nitro/v1/) to pull a response from it. Does that API have some sort of front-end or GUI accessibility to ensure it's reporting correctly? This plugin is pretty simple and it doesn't look like it's doing anything wrong currently.
