AIX/VIO Services KPI Template

[nike]

I have an Linux environment but now have been tasked to onboard 50 AIX/VIO servers.I am looking for advise on how to configure the AIX service KPI.

We do not have AIX/VIO servers here to test against so we do not have any sample configurations.

For AIX you can monitor through SSH and run plugins:

See here for the AIX plugins we have:

I would look at installing NCPA on the system, then you can use Configure > Config Wizards > NCPA wizard and should be able to check all of those though the integrated features of NCPA (which also lets you run plugins):

See here as well:

If not NCPA, you can also setup NRPE on the system, see here:

I do not see any VIO specific plugins available.

Let us know if you have any questions.
