NCPA and doing combined checks

Post by MrPippin »

Is there a method available to have NCPA do combined checks for more than one check type?

Example is I need to alert if read time or write time exceed a threshold for a disk. I don't see a method for doing this.

Have you checked on the Nagios Exchange? I think that one of the plugins below may suit your needs. It looks like they can check read and write time to disk.

check_diskstat
check_diskstat.sh

Hi,

If you're using Nagios XI, the BPI ( Business Process Intelligence ) is able to group checks together and send alerts based off certain health thresholds.

Otherwise, take a look at the check_multi plugin.
