ESX issue

[raamardhani7]

Hi Team,

We are facing the below issue when running the check for DataStorage Usage For VMHost.

Code: Select all

ESX3 CRITICAL - Illegal division by zero at /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_esx3.pl line 1065.

Where as for other servers, this is working fine. but for few servers, this is not picking the details. Could someone help me here. thanks.

Have you made any changes to the esx server, specifically DataStore, mount points, or disk related? I've seen the same error in the past, and it turned out a datastore had been disconnected...

What is the version of the "check_esx3.pl" plugin that you are currently using?

Code: Select all

grep "VERSION =" /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_esx3.pl

Can you show us the actual command run from the command line along with the output of it?

I know that the check_esx3.pl script has a few bugs and needs updating to fix that problem. The developers have now called it check_vmware_api

It can be downloaded from here:

http://git.op5.org/gitweb?p=system-addo ... ;a=summary

I believe you can just rename it to check_esx3.pl and it should slot right in and fix your problem.

Hi Box293,

All the parameters except the below is working fine. Could you please help us here, thanks.

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_esx_test.pl -H "xx.xx.xx.xx" -f "/usr/local/nagiosxi/etc/components/vmware/xx.xx.xx.xx_auth.txt" -l "RUNTIME"

Try replacing line 1898 with:

Code: Select all

if (defined($subcommand)) { die {msg => ("NOTICE: \"" . $host_view->name . "\" is in maintenance mode, check skipped\n"), code => OK} if (($subcommand ne "MAINTENANCE") && ($runtime->inMaintenanceMode)); }

Box293, you are just amazing. this is working fine.

one small request, we also need /tmp utilization data to be captured. can we achieve this for ESX servers?

[rkennedy]

Just to clarify - are you looking to monitor the /tmp directory on the local ESX machine? I don't think it'll be possible with the plugin as it mentions only being able to monitor the following -

CPU usage
Memory usage
I/O read latency
I/O write latency
Runtime health
Rnutime issues
Runtime status

I imagine you could probably setup a check_by_ssh to do so, though.

I am sorry for the delay in response. you can close this thread. thank you so much your help
