Monitored Servers do not return results

Post by ___itnetworksupport »

I am running the lasted Nagios XI Evaluation VM. I have followed the videos to convert the VMPlayer file to run on my ESXi 5.0 Environment and did all initial setup steps.

I used the Windows SNMP monitor wizard to add several Windows servers both 2008R2 and 2003.

When looking at the Service Status for the servers I am monitoring CPU, Disk C Usage, Physical Memory Usage, Ping, and Virtual Memory Usage. Ping is the only green item on all server, the other status are Unknown. Status Information says: "ERROR: Description table : No response from remote host '<ServerIP>'." on all servers. The localhost is all green.

I am completely at a loss. I have made sure all the scripts in the /usr/local/nagios/libexec are all set to execute, chmod +x *

I am also getting an issue that when I monitor my ESXi host it tells me my CPU is critical and when I check the actual server it is no where near critical levels. Status information for that issue is "null".

Do you have SNMP enabled on the systems?

From the XI server can you run the following replacing public with your community string and IPADDRESS with the
IP of one of the Windows servers.

Code: Select all

snmpget -v2c -c public IPADDRESS sysUpTime.0
