[ganeshkagde]

Hi Team,

Please let me know is it possible to monitor folder for files on Nagios XI? if yes please let me know which wizard will work for this.
if file count is grater than 500 then alert should be through.

You could use the check_winfile plugin with NSClient++ or NCPA.

Example:

The check_winfile command, defined in the nsclient.ini file

Code: Select all

check_winfile = scripts\check_winfile.exe //T:30 //NoLogo $ARG1$

Checks, run from the command line on the Nagios XI server, along with the output

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H <ip address> -c check_winfile -a '--target c:\TEMP --critical 5'
FILE CRITICAL - 6 files to consider |'selected files'=6;;5 'all files'=6 'deleted files'=0

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H <ip address> -c check_winfile -a '--target c:\TEMP --critical 10'
FILE OK - 6 files to consider |'selected files'=6;;10 'all files'=6 'deleted files'=0
