Hello Experts,
We have a Dell EMC VNXe3200 storage box in our network.
We monitor all our devices using Nagios Core 4.4.6.
We have been searching for the past 1-2 weeks but haven't found any useful plugin to monitor VNXe3200 using Nagios.
Please guide me on the correct way to add this storage box into monitoring.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
If you put a little effort on it, we'll be glad to help. And by effort, I mean telling us what you've done so far to this search. I recommend you always start looking for plugins on Nagios Exchange, it's a great source and provides A LOT OF solutions. https://exchange.nagios.org
I searched at Google for "vnx nagios plugin" and found these two interesting links :
- https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/P ... xe/details
- https://gist.github.com/ReallyLikesNute ... c478f7e669
Now do your tests and come back here to tell us if it's working, or if this helped at all ; )
Good luck.

Re: VNXe3200 monitoring
Thank you for your support.
Basically, To start with we wanted to set the alert for free space available in our storage LUN's.
We have tried below plugins.
https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/P ... xe/details
https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/P ... pl/details
But none of them are supporting the desired feature.
Please suggest.

Hi,
The first plugin works on a tool called UnisphereCLI. If you don't have it installed on your Nagios system, it won't work at all. And it must be executed with sudo.
The second plugin uses a tool called Navisphere to work, and apparently, there's no special permissions to assign before you run it as Nagios.
But I don't have a VNXe3200 to test out these plugins, I just showed you that there's some tools already built for this purpose, but I couldn't guarantee any tool working properly on your environment.
I'd lookup in Nagios Exchange, Google and forums from your vendor (Dell EMC), somewhere you'll find a piece of code that suits your needs.
If I had an better answer, certainly I'd be gladly sharing with all of you in this forum.
Hope my recommendations helped you somehow.

Hello,
Thank you for your valuable response.
I have these tools already installed on my Nagios server.
They are working as per their function.
But the thing is that we wanted to monitor the LUN's configured on our storage.
Those plugins (URL's given in my last post) do not provide any option to monitor it.
Please suggest.
