Are you talking about SAN Volume monitoring? Have a look at these two plugins:

Note: We have shown you that you can use the nagios exchange before multiple times, please try searching before posting a thread asking about something that can be found there...

Let us know if you need help, or have any more questions on this.

You will need to download the plugin to your XI server if it has the ability to be passed a host address (thus making it run from the Nagios server), the directions for that are as follows:

If it is a locally run check, you will need to execute it with something like, NRPE, NRDP, or NSCA on the remote host. In which case follow the steps we have previously outlined to you multiple times on setting up checks with a remote agent.

It looks like the plugins can be ran from the nagios server, pass '-h' to the plugin when executing it to see the help output, that will assist you in seeing what can be checked, and how to define the check command and service commands from the above document.
