Monitoring Page File

Post by dave.merrick »

Hello,

Im really sorry, i am new to the Nagios world :shock: . I have everything up and running and monitoring the default templates but i would like to monitor the page file usage on a particular windows 2008r2 server.

Would any one be kind enough to give me some simple instructions on how to achieve this?

Many Thanks

Dave

The best way to do this would be through a combination of NSClient++ 0.3.9 installed on the server, and then a NRPE query to that server for the Paging File performance counter, I'll link some documentation that will help get NSClient++ installed and talking with Nagios Core, then we can add the counter check:
