URL monitoring through Nagios

[RIDS_I2MP]

Hi Team,

We have one URL which opens only from a specific server. We want to monitor that URL from Nagios XI. Can you please help us to understand how it can be achieved?

Below are the details:

URL: http://10.148.55.180:8085/ipnet/msgsrv/ ... &cmd=logon

Server (from where URL is accessible) - 10.148.160.4 (EU2PDSW001)

Thanks in advance!!

Install the NCPA agent on the EU2PDSW001 server and use check_ncpa on the XI machine to execute the check_http(or other plugin) on the EU2PDSW001 server.

Hello,

Thanks for your reply!!

I have few queries here.

1. We already have NSC++ installed on EU2PDSW001 server. Do we have any option available in NSC++ to complete our URL requirement?
2. If NSC++ (NSCP-0.5.2.35-x64) cannot be used for it, then, can we use NSC++ and NCPA together?
3. I could not understand below part from your reply:
"use check_ncpa on the XI machine to execute the check_http(or other plugin) on the EU2PDSW001 server"

I cannot find check_ncpa command in "Command" section in CCM, how to use it?

Also, can we use "Website" configuration wizard which uses check_http plugin?

We have never used NCPA agent, so these many questions are arriving. Please let me know what would be convenient way to monitor URL.

If you have nsclient++ installed then you can use that instead of installing NCPA.
