OS X Mountain Lion

[johnemac]

Hi Forum,

We are getting Nagios running for our Mac Servers which are all going up to Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion soon. I have been having trouble getting the OS/X Agent to compile in Mountain Lion and have abandoned it for the standard NRPE. I have two questions:

Is NRPE the best way to monitor OS X? What about SNMP?
Is there a check that will tell me what the bandwidth of all my ethernet traffic is on all ports?

System configuration is attached.

Thanks,

The Agent should just install NRPE...

What errors were you getting?

As for monitoring SNMP would work just fine, we don't however have a wizard for that..

If you have SNMP setup on the Servers you may be able to simply run the Router/Switch wizard to monitor bandwith on all ports.

Running

Code: Select all

sudo ./fullinstall

Subcomponents installed OK
A-subcomponents appears to have already completed successfully. Moving on to the next step.
Starting NRPE Agent
launchctl start error: Bad file descriptor

That's weird.

Can you run the following

Code: Select all

ls -l /Library/LaunchAgents/org.nagios.nrpe.plist
