AIX CPU Stats

Do you guys know why I'm not getting performance graphs from AIX?

Not really. Let's see the performance data being returned. Please go to the Service Details page, click the service, and go to the Advanced tab. Send a screenshot.

That would certainly be why - it looks like you are getting no performance data!

Please run the following from the command line as root and post the results:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H <remote AIX host IP> -t 30 -c check_aix_cpu -a '-w 80 -c 90'

of course replacing "<remote AIX host IP>" with the actual IP.

Code: Select all

[root@nagios ~]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H xx.xxx.xxx.xxx -t 30 -c check_aix_cpu -a '-w 80 -c 90'
WARNING - CPU usage at 82.25%

Can you provide a link to the plugin that is being run by check_aix_cpu on the remote machine? My guess is that plugin simply does not provide perfdata.

If it is this one:

http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Pl ... ge/details

then this seems to be the case. It's a relatively short perl script though, and it might not be too hard to hack in the perfdata if you have a perl person on your team.

That's the one...this can be closed...I'll have someone work with me...thanks!

Actually, I happen to be a perl guy and this should be dead simple. Change this:

Code: Select all

if ($usage >= $crit) {

	printf("CRITICAL - CPU usage at $usage%\n");
	exit($STATUSCODE{"CRITICAL"});
	}

elsif ($usage >= $warn) {

	printf("WARNING - CPU usage at $usage%\n");
	exit($STATUSCODE{"WARNING"});
	}

elsif ($usage < $warn) {

	printf("OK - CPU usage at $usage%\n");
	exit($STATUSCODE{"OK"});
	}

to this:

Code: Select all

if ($usage >= $crit) {

	printf("CRITICAL - CPU usage at $usage%|cpu=$usage%\n");
	exit($STATUSCODE{"CRITICAL"});
	}

elsif ($usage >= $warn) {

	printf("WARNING - CPU usage at $usage%|cpu=$usage%\n");
	exit($STATUSCODE{"WARNING"});
	}

elsif ($usage < $warn) {

	printf("OK - CPU usage at $usage%|cpu=$usage%\n");
	exit($STATUSCODE{"OK"});
	}
