check-cisco.pl : trying to graph the data using pnp4

Post by jchavez »

I am trying to graph the data using pnp4, I using check_cisco but do not display graphs,
with other plugins if it works as with check_snmp :(

File: /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/cisco_switch.cfg

define host {
use generic-host,host-pnp
host_name 62.253-XXXXXXXXXX
alias cisco
address X.X.62.253
notes Cisco Dist
check_command check-host-alive
max_check_attempts 5
check_period 24x7
notification_interval 30
notification_period 24x7
contact_groups TI-ContactGroup
# parents none
icon_image vendors/cisco3.png
statusmap_image vendors/cisco3.gd2
}

define service {
hostgroup_name Cisco_switch
service_description Interface Eth 1/1 status
check_command Cisco_check_command! -C public -i Ethernet1/1
use generic-service,srv-pnp
}

File: /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/commands.cfg

define command{
command_name Cisco_check_command
command_line $USER1$/check_cisco.pl -H $HOSTADDRESS$ $USER7$ -n $ARG1$ $ARG2$
}

#
# Bulk with NPCD mode
#
define command {
command_name process-service-perfdata-file
command_line /bin/mv /usr/local/pnp4nagios/var/service-perfdata /usr/local/pnp4nagios/var/spool/service-perfdata.$TIMET$
}

define command {
command_name process-host-perfdata-file
command_line /bin/mv /usr/local/pnp4nagios/var/host-perfdata /usr/local/pnp4nagios/var/spool/host-perfdata.$TIMET$
}

####

Performance data empty:

[root@localhost ~]# ls -l /usr/local/pnp4nagios/var/perfdata/62.252-MICH-7018-02_MDF/

-rw-rw-r-- 1 nagios nagios 2653 Apr 8 15:07 _HOST_.xml

It works with check_snmp command:

Thanks for sharing a rather comprehensive chunk of information.

Assuming you are using this version of check_cisco.pl:
https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/P ... rs/details

This plugin does not appear to provide performance data. In other words, the plugin would need to be altered to provide performance data in order for pnp4nagios to graph it. This is a limitation of the check_cisco.pl plugin; Not Nagios Core or pnp4nagios. The plugin is just making simple snmp walk and get calls, so you could probably pull the particular OIDs out and configure them with check_snmp as an alternative. This would require a bit of research and knowledge of SNMP.

Here's more info on how plugins can provide performance data to be consumed by Nagios Core:

Thanks @mcapra!

As @mcapra pointed out you would need to either add performance data to the plugin or use a different plugin.
