monitor netapp

[Phil7269]

We just installed a netapp 2240 in our environment and I want to use nagios for monitoring and alerting the Netapp SAN. I've downloaded the plugin check-netapp-ng.pl, placed on my nagios server and have tried running the plugin from the command line yet keep getting the error message "no such file or directory"

Do I need to compile this plugin before it can be used? If so how do I compile? If not i would appreciate some hints on how to get this thing to work?

thank you for your help.

Did you make sure to change the execution policies for it?

Code: Select all

chmod +x name-of-file-or-directory-path-and-file

[Phil7269]

Yes I did. I ran again using the command you listed and still get the same error. I am logged in as root.

appreciate the help

Are you able to do an ls -l on the directory containing the plugin and the output of the attempted script execution including the command you are running?

@Phil7269 - Has this been resolved?

[Phil7269]

yes, this has been resolved. thank you for your assistance

For anyone else that might experience this problem, i had originally created this file on a windows 7 computer and copied to my linux box. I had to create a new text file on the linux box and then copy the content from the windows created file into the new linux text file. I then deleted the windows created file and renamed the new linux text file with the same name, check-netapp-ng.pl

after doing this the file was accessible.
