Nagios Support Forum

No Sir,
That plugin works remotely only using nrpe agent. And I took the solution from ssax who modified the plugin which I have attached in this thread in my last post. I used that plugin only to monitor disk. Here I have to monitor it through snmp only So i will have to use that plugin.

I never tried that plugin check_all_diskstat.sh because it doesnt work remotely. I used the second last solution of that thread posted by ssax. He modified that plugin. He was very helpful in that thread

Is there an inherent reason you can't use NRPE? If not then you'll have to do some SNMP recursion filtering based upon block device name.

We dont want to install nrpe on the server which we want to monitor. We want to use snmp which is already present on the server.

Putting NRPE on the server would be a better choice - I'll say that up front just so it's clear. That said - try this modification and see if it does what you need.

Putting NRPE is not a concern. But we are automating Nagios with CHEF and we dont want to add any extra agent to be installed on the servers.

Thanks a lot for modifying the plugin. I will check and let you know if it works.

Sounds good. Keep in mind that some things may not be exposed over SNMP (like running services, number of users logged in, etc) at which point NRPE or some other agent will be necessary.

Hello Sir,

Thanks a lotttttttttttttttttt for modifying the plugin. I am very much happy to work with you guys. You guys are helping lot. Thanks for this great help to everyone specially to jdalrymple. This is pulling multi-path devices after modifying the plugin. Thanks again.

Thanks tmcdonald for your additional information. If I need to monitor those things then I will consider NRPE plugin before trying any other plugin for sure.
