Nagios Client for Amazon Ec2 Intance

Post by jcamillo »

What Nagios client should I install on the following aws instance:


Linux ip-10-191-50-42 3.2.12-3.2.4.amzn1.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Mar 22 08:00:08 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


Thanks

Because amzn OS is a custom build, you will likely need to build around it...

You could do something like the following

Code: Select all

cd /tmp
wget http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagiosxi/agents/linux-nrpe-agent.tar.gz
tar xvf linux-nrpe-agent.tar.gz
cd linux-nrpe-agent
cat /dev/null > init.sh
./xivar dist "el6"
./xivar arch "x86_64"
./xivar ver "6"
touch installed.firewall
./fullinstall
You also will need to make sure you have port 5666 and 5667 open in the Amazon firewall.
