check_mssql_health

[pentiumone133]

I'm trying to install the plugin check_mssql_health since it allows monitoring of SQL server backup age, which I don't think the built-in checks can do.

The installation completes fine, but when I attempt to run manually from the command line I encounter the following errors. Seems that a perl module is missing but google is coming up blank for me. I figure at least a few people must be utilizing this plugin on XI, how did you get it working? I also want to avoid doing anything that will break the included MSSQL checks since I will still be using those for other things.

Code: Select all

[root@nagiosxi libexec]# ./check_mssql_health --hostname=10.131.100.3 --username=test --password=test --mode=database-backup-age

Perhaps the DBD::Sybase perl module hasn't been fully installed,
or perhaps the capitalisation of 'Sybase' isn't right.

The author of check_mssql_health states:

This Plugin requires the installation of the Perl-module DBD::Sybase.

You will need to install the DBD::Sybase perl module on your Nagios XI box. On RHEL/CentOS 6, you should be able to run:

Code: Select all

yum install perl-DBD-Sybase

On RHEL/CentOS 7, you may need to compile it. Here's a guide I found that may be useful:

Thanks! I was trying to install the module through CPAN.
