Performance data not showing - Nagios XI

[amit.ahuja]

Hello,

We are using Nagios XI and using a service as a template - but performace data is showing as null - where as for other services for same device we are able to see the data.

I have looked at this document to troubleshoot but did not helped -
https://support.nagios.com/wiki/index.p ... h_Problems

Can anyone help in figuring out why we are not able to see performance or historical data.

Thanks,
Amit

Can you show us the actual cheek run from the command line along with the output of it?

Also, go to "Home->Service Detail-><your service>, and show a screenshot of the "Advanced" tab page.

Run the following commands and show the output:

Code: Select all

ls /usr/local/nagios/var/spool/xidpe | wc -l
ls /usr/local/nagios/var/spool/perfdata | wc -l
ls /usr/local/nagios/var/spool/checkresults | wc -l
top | head -5

The check_snmp_load plugin has a command line option to output the performance data.
If you add a -f to your check command, it should start to output performance data.

[amit.ahuja]

Thanks that worked for check_snmp_load.pl but now there are few others where we are not able to see performace graphs - for example to check tmm memory for F5

[root@esu4v247 libexec]# ./check_f5tmmmem.pl
Usage:
./check_f5tmmmem.pl <f5_host> <community_string> <memory warn threashold> <memory err threashold>

we do not see -f as an option.

can you suggest something on this.

Thanks

I couldn't find any information on the check_f5tmmmem.pl plugin but not all plugins are written to output performance data.
You can post it here or the link that you downloaded it from.
If you run the following in a shell, it might give you more info on the usage of the plugin.

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_f5tmmmem.pl --help

[amit.ahuja]

Please find attached .pl file we are using to collect the stats - we got this script from - https://exchange.nagios.org/components/ ... 7&cf_id=24

Also the output for command ois as follows -

[root@esu4v247 libexec]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_f5tmmmem.pl --help
Usage:
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_f5tmmmem.pl <f5_host> <community_string> <memory warn threashold> <memory err threashold>
[root@esu4v247 libexec]#

Not all of the plugins return perfdata output (the text to the right of the pipe "|"). Can you show us an example of a "check_f5tmmmem.pl" check run from the command line along with the output of it?

[amit.ahuja]

Here you go --

[root@esu4v247 libexec]# ./check_f5tmmmem.pl xx.xx.xxx.xx simpsons 80 90
OK: TMM Memory utilization on xx.xxx.xxx.xx is 7%
[root@esu4v247 libexec]#

Thanks

It seems like this is a limitation of the plugin. I don't see perfdata in the output. Here's an example of a perfdata output from a check:

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H x.x.x.x -p 5666 -c check_users -a '-w 2 -c 5'
USERS OK - 1 users currently logged in |users=1;2;5;0
