Need to monitor power linux in nagiosxi

[mejokj]

Hi Team,

We need to monitor power Linux in Nagiosxi with nrpe agent.
However, the same host is added to Nagios core as well with nrpe agent. So we try the below steps to monitor the same on NagiosXI as well.

Steps done:
-------------

1) Added IP of Nagiosxi as allowed host in nrpe.cfg file along with already mentioned IP of Nagios core and restarted nrpe service.

allowed_hosts=nagios core IP,NagiosXi server IP
dont_blame_nrpe=1

2) Added commads under /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg file for all required service in client

command[check_load]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_load -w 15,10,5 -c 30,25,20

Error
====

Only a few services look fine in NagiosXI and most of the service shows below error.

"NRPE - Command ’[Your Plugin]’ Not Defined"

Thanks

Please attach these from the power linux system:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg
/usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe/common.cfg

What is the output of these commands from the power linux system?

Code: Select all

ps aux | grep nrpe
cat /etc/xinetd.d/nrpe

What version of NRPE is it running?

Hi Ssax,

We will share the details in some time.

Meanwhile, can you suggest how we can monitor old Power Linux versions 6.4 and 8.4 in Nagiosxi.

Note: There is no internet available on the power Linux servers. So we cannot download any agent online.

Thanks,

Hi,

I'm assisting Sean on this support request as he is out right now.

The best option would be to setup SNMP monitoring. There is a Linux SNMP Wizard available in Nagios XI. Are you able to install net-snmp on these systems?
