Monitoring IBM MQ, IIB, MessageSight

Post by technosol »

Hi

I want to monitor IBM MQ, IIB, MessageSight using Nagios XI.

Those applicatins are hosted in AIX and RedHat.

Do you have a official nagios guide to configure such applications to monirtor in Nagios XI?

Thank you.

Unfortunately, we do not have any official guides on monitoring such applications in Nagios XI.

Having said that, Nagios can monitor almost anything, provided you have a plugin for it. Have you tried searching for a suitable plugin on the Nagios Exchange?

https://exchange.nagios.org/

There are thousands of 3rd party plugin on the site. Once you find a plugin that works, you can create a command and a service in Nagios XI, following the steps, outlined in the document below:

If you had a custom script that can monitor these applications on the remote server, you could either use NCPA or NSClient++ to call this script from Nagios XI, or send a passive check results to XI. So, there are many different options, depending on what you are trying to accomplish.

Hope this helps.
