How to view WHM/Service Status

Post by sammybotz »

I use a VPS with cpanel's web host manager installed. I had nagios installed but unfortunately am a newbie and would like to view the "Server load", "Memory Used", and "Swap Used" under "System information" in WHM/Service Status. Right now when I view my nagios admin page I click on "Services" and only see what's the default under "Service Status Details For All Hosts". I only have 5 servers and would like to view more details as described above on one simple page.

Sorry I'm a newbie but could someone please tell me what addon or package I need to achieve this and possibly a little instructions on installing on my centos servers ?


Thanks so very much for any information, I would really appreciate it. Thanks again.


Sorry I forgot to add I'm using Nagios® Core™ 3.5.0

I'm not quite sure if I understand what you are asking. Are you already monitoring these metrics? If so, you can see the details for each service check under the "Services" link from the home page, are you asking if you can get a dump of all of your service's status details pages in a list? There are a number of different views within Nagios Core which will display different ways of looking at those hosts or services.

Thank you for the quick reply and trying to help me.

I can already view the default view (Host, Service, Status, Last Check, Duration, Attempt and Status Information) of all 5 servers on one page in nagios admin/Services page. But I want to possibly view it the same way you see it in WHM/Service Status page for all 5 servers on one page in nagios. In WHM/Service Status it shows all the services that are running. I would like to see them all for all 5 servers on one page in nagios.

And if there is such a way to view it like I described above possibly a link to the addon or addons I need with a little centos SSH install commands would be really, really appreciated.

I hope I described what I would like to see better as I am new, sorry about that. I know how frustrating it must be to a professional nagios user.


Thanks again for your response.

Can you attach a screenshot of what you are looking at "WHM/Service Status?" So we can see what you are asking to be able to see?

Yes sir, sorry for the delay,

I have attached a screen shot. At the very least I would like to monitor under "System information" for 5 servers all on one nagios page.
Server load
Memory Used
Swap Used

-------------

If possible I would like to monitor the above as mentioned for 5 servers on one nagios page plus the bottom services:
clamd
exim
httpd
mysql
named
spamd
sshd

--------------

Also possibly a link to the addon or addons I need with a little centos SSH install commands would be really, really appreciated. Thank you very much

You very well may need to edit the cgi source to do this. Otherwise look at v-shell, as it is a php frontend to core and will be *much* easier to add functionality to.
