Nagios Support Forum

currently i am using nagios core 4.0.8 for monitering activemq_watch.

And perfomance data is empty.

when i go to service and click on graph option it gives me this error.

Please check the documentation for information about the following error.

XML file "/usr/local/pnp4nagios/var/perfdata/hostname/svc-activemq_watch.xml" not found. <a href="http://docs.pnp4nagios.org/faq/6">Read FAQ online</a>

But when i see in my nagios server this file is already there.

Could you post the permissions on that file?
When ever a file is present but Nagios says it ain't, permissions is the first thing to check.

i just made that change. now i am able to see the file.

but still not able to moniter by graph

and my xml file is

so is my performance data wrong.


let me send you a pic.

bash-4.1$ cat /usr/local/pnp4nagios/var/service-perfdata | grep mq

DATATYPE::SERVICEPERFDATA TIMET::1461267002 HOSTNAME::hostname SERVICEDESC::svc-activemq_watch SERVICEPERFDATA:: SERVICECHECKCOMMAND::check_byssh_activemq_watch!500!750!queue name HOSTSTATE::UP HOSTSTATETYPE::HARD SERVICESTATE::UNKNOWN SERVICESTATETYPE::HARD

As PNP4Nagios isn't a product of ours, we aren't able to provide support for it. Your best bet is taking a look at their documentation (https://docs.pnp4nagios.org/pnp-0.6/start) or contacting them for support.

What is the command line associated with the activemq_watch command? When you run that command with those arguments in the command line do you see performance data? (Information after a | )?

OP, just checking if you have any Nagios related questions that we could assist with. As for pnp4nagios, rkennedy is correct, that is not our product so it would be better to post those questions to their forum, although we'll certainly try to be helpful here - thanks -
