Performance graph on Solaris ?

[chedaille]

Hello,

We are using Nagios 4.4.5 compiled on a Solaris 11.4 Sparc platform to monitor our data center servers and now need to install a performance graphing monitoring. We wonder if we should install pnp4nagios or nagiosgraph on Solaris.

I have been trying for 2 weeks to install pnp4nagios but I miss the GD extension for PHP (php5-gd) and I am unable to complete the installation.

- Would you recommend install pnp4nagios or nagiosgraph on Solaris 11.4 ?
- Is there any documentation or guide to install graphing monitoring on Solaris ?
- Was anyone able to install it on Solaris ?

Any hint or guide would be highly appreciated as most of the documentation I have found is Linux related.

Cheers,
Nico

One possible solution is OpenCSW

Specifically CSWphp5

Hello snapier3,

Thanks, I have installed the packages CSWphp5 and CSWphp5-gd on my Solaris 11 system.

root@solaris:~# pkginfo |grep CSWphp5
application CSWphp5 php5 - A High-Level Scripting Language
application CSWphp5-gd php5_gd - The gd extention for PHP5

Unfortunately, the GD extension doesn't seen to be available from pnp4nagios test page: http://localhost/pnp4nagios/
PHP GD extension PHP GD extension not available

You can see the full output there:
https://prnt.sc/vc61e4

Kohana is using php version 7.1.17 which is the current version installed.

root@solaris:~# php -v
PHP 7.1.17 (cli) (built: Aug 10 2018 06:07:41) ( ZTS )
Copyright (c) 1997-2018 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v3.1.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2018 Zend Technologies

Is the solution to "force" pnp4nagios to use PHP5 instead of PHP-71 to enable GD extension ?

Have I missed something ?

I am really stuck and any help woud be appreciated.

Thanks!
Nico

Nagios on Solaris 11 has been a conundrum for a minute...

Is the solution to "force" pnp4nagios to use PHP5

If you take a stroll through the issues for https://github.com/lingej/pnp4nagios/issues you'll notice several unresolved for PHP7. While I'm neither a developer nor contributor to pnp4nagios I'm pretty sure you're going to have to do exactly that or start down the path of using a Zone for Solaris10.

Wish you the best of luck,
