Ping + NRDS

[sarpione]

Hi everyone, i got another problem in the incredible world of Nagios XI.

I got a passive checks in a windows 7 and i need to ping a device connected to my computer (host w7) and report if the ping is successful "OK" if not "Critical".

Pls tell me what plugin i have to use and the command line.

Thx a lot!!!

To add the command, you would use the NRDS Config Manager in the XI GUI. Go to the Admin > NRDS Config Manager menu
Fin the config you are using and edit it.
Add this line to the bottom of the commands field replacing xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx with the IP address

Code: Select all

command[Ping] = $PLUGIN_DIR$\check_winping.exe -H xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx --warning 200,40% --critical 400,80%

Save the file out and the next time NRDS is run on the Windows system, it should download the changes and run it.
Then on the XI server, go to the Admin > Unconfigured Objects menu, the first time a passive check is run, it needs to be configured so that is where you will find it to finalize it's configuration.

i already add it

This is what happen when i configured the host.


Any idea?

It looks like you edited a NRDS config for a linux system and not a configuration windows system.
Is the remote system that NRDS is running on a windows system or a linux system?

Windows 7.
This is what i type in the Config.ini

#<check_name> = <path location\file name> <check arguments>

command[Ping] = .\plugins\check_winping.exe -H 192.168.1.117 --warning 200,40% --critical 400,80%

Edit the config.ini file and change this line from

Code: Select all

command[Ping] = .\plugins\check_winping.exe -H 192.168.1.117 --warning 200,40% --critical 400,80%
to

Code: Select all

command[Ping] = $PLUGIN_DIR$\check_winping.exe -H 192.168.1.117 --warning 200,40% --critical 400,80%

And see if that works.

If not, please post your full config.ini file.
