How to monitor fileshare on NAS server

[Amit_Alone]

@p4ben, could you please share the suggested doc link.

Hi Amit_Alone,

Do you have access to the documentation for this particular NAS? That looks like the next step to troubleshoot this issue.

Hi Benjamin,

Not sure about the access. But if you can share the link then I can have a look either way share the doc over here itself.

However, as you mention it is the next step of troubleshoot. So, could you please assist me with the first steps of troubleshooting.

Thanks,
Amit

Hi,

I'm not certain what device this is. What is device, make and model number?

Do you have access to the web interface ( as posted earlier)? Can you verify that SNMP is enabled or that it supports that functionality, we only saw the setting for SNMP Traps.

Hi Benjamin,

Attaching the device make and model image.

Regarding access of web interface it is limited till storage team I don't have it. Also, they have told SNMP is enabled.

Hi,

Thanks for posting the model. That device only supports traps.

See: No SNMP Support for EMC Unity ??! Really ?

However, this plugin might work with this device. It will use the API.

Hi,

Thanks for sharing the details. I was able to install the nagios utility. But after running the suggested command I have observed 401 error regarding this I'm checking with the concern team.

Hi,

Do you have any special characters in your password? Double-check the credentials and then try wrapping it quotes and test again

Can you successfully run a simple command to generate the help menu?

Code: Select all

nagios-unity --help

Benjamin

Sorry for late reply, person was on leave who can provide correct details.

Also, thanks Benjamin shared nagios-utility is working as expected. I can see all the provided monitoring commands are working as expected.

However, steps that are share for updating the Nagios configuration is getting wipe out after every nagios service restart.

Also, could you please assist me how to monitor the fileshares that are present on NAS server. Such as there Disk size, replication connection and connection with host.
