Website Monitoring Wizard

Post by jwelch »

Nagios XI 2012R2.1

Notes on Website Monitoring wizard quirks:

DNS IP Match: After running wizard, have to change check command to check_dns to get it to pass, otherwise it tries to compare
the name to the ip and fails.

If I want to check both http and https, I have to do the HTTPS check first, save config, then edit the service name from HTTP to HTTPS
then manually create an HTTP check. (Would be nice if wizard named the service HTTPS if ssl is checked, and not clobber HTTP check)

SSL Certificate check does not honor the port setting in the wizard. If server is running on another port, it still tries to check 443. I have to
manually add -p <port> to ARG1 (the days setting). Would be nice if the wizard used ARG1 for the port, and ARG2 for the number of days.
