RDP services monitoring

[shailu2014]

Hi All,

I have configured the windows server 2008 std r2 with basic montoring device (CPU, Hard disk, RAM, Page-file), Please can someone help how to monitoring the RDP services or RDP port 3389 on Nagios XI.

Thanks,
Sjain

There is no specific RDP check. If you want to just check that the port is open and available, use check_tcp using the port 3389.

Otherwise you could check out the following monitoring plugin in our exchange:

This plugin will show you RDP Sessions:

Can we get the RDP login user name during rdp on server or desktop through Nagios XI Alert.

Thanks,

Yes, you would need to write a custom script.

Have a look at the plugin I pointed you to, it uses a command qwinsta that includes that information.

sjain, let us know if that linked plugin works for you.

The plugin seems to be running fine for me. Here's what I did.

I downloaded the "get_rdp_info.zip", and unzipped it. I copied the "get_rdp_info.vbs" script to the "C:\Program Files\NSClient++\scripts\" directory on my Windows box.

I added the following line to the "nsclient.ini" file (under [/settings/external scripts/scripts] section):

Code: Select all

get_rdp_info = cscript.exe //T:30 //NoLogo scripts\get_rdp_info.vbs

saved and restarted the NSClient++ service.

I copied over the "get_rdp_info.php" file to the "/usr/local/nagios/share/pnp/templates/" directory on the Nagios XI server.

I tested the check from the command line by running:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H <client ip> -p 5666 -c get_rdp_info
Sessions {Active=1 Idle=0 Disconnected=0} RDP Bytes {Input=0 Output=0}|'Active Sessions'=1 'Idle Sessions'=0 'Disconnected Sessions'=0 'Input Bytes'=0Bytes 'Output Bytes'=0Bytes '[get_rdp_info]'=0

I created a new check in the CCM:

Code: Select all

define service {
	host_name			Windows7
	service_description		get_rdp_info
	use				xiwizard_windowsserver_nsclient_service
	check_command			check_nrpe!get_rdp_info!!!!!!!
	max_check_attempts		5
	check_interval			5
	retry_interval			1
	check_period			xi_timeperiod_24x7
	notification_interval		60
	notification_period		xi_timeperiod_24x7
	notifications_enabled		0
	contacts			nagiosadmin
	_xiwizard			windowsserver
	register			1
	}

I tested the check from the GUI by scheduling a forced immediate check:

Hope this helps.

Hi Lmiltchev,

When I am running the below command after that it's giving error

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 192.168.15.72 -p 5666 -c get_rdp_info
CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake.

Please help to resolve the issue and let me know the steps to configure the RDP service through CCM (screen shot attached) which already desktop or servers added in Nagios XI Server.

Thanks,
Sjain

Try running the command like this to disable ssl to see if it works for you.

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 192.168.15.72 -p 5666 -c get_rdp_info -n
