Nagios Support Forum

Hello Experts,

I was using mysqld_check and mysql_counters plugin for monitoring mysql as they have some nice graphs template in pnp4nagios. But the problem is that those plugins only work with mysql versions higher than 5.1.x

I have some mysql which are on mysql 5.0.80. Are there any similar plugins available to monitor InnoDB engine and performance of mysql for MySQL 5.0.80. Please suggest.

Have you had a look through the MySQL section on Nagios Exchange?

Yes i already went through that page and I like those plugins check_mysqld and mysql_counters but those are only used for mysql version higher than 5.1.
I am already using those plugins as they have very nice pnp4nagios graph templates.

I need same type of plugin for older mysql version 5.0.80.

Please suggest me those type of plugins which can give me information better for INNODB databases

I want to monitor
Query per seconds
max user connection
slow queries
show processlist
innodb buffer pool usage

I was able to find a page online that hosts some MySQL plugins written by people who administer MySQL machines:

https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-mon ... index.html

I could not find any version support, but those might be worth looking into.

So just to clear this up, we're talking about a major version of open source software that has been out of support for almost 4 years. This means it's unlikely that anything will get generated new for this line of monitoring. You can try consol labs plugin, it was originally developed back then and either:

a) It may just support what you want.
or
b) If you can download an ancient version it may work for you.

Good luck.

These are said to work with 5.0, the Percona ones look very interesting and might be what you're looking for.
