Nagios Xi Monitoring Service

We are running nagios XI and what I need to do is add a service for "Informix DB"... I need to check to see if informix in running or not.
I do have the "nrpe" client running on the hosts machines.

Here is the command that I need to use....

Code: Select all

[root@huey tmp]# onstat - |grep 'On-Line' |wc -l
1
I need to have it check every 5 minutes or less. If it returns 0 that means it is down and I will need to be notified ASAP.
Can this be done? If so please assist. Thank you

There appear to be two Informix plugins available, but written by the same author:
https://exchange.nagios.org//directory/ ... sh/details
https://exchange.nagios.org//directory/ ... sh/details

If those do not work for you, then you may need to write your own script. You could also look on github for additional plugins.

On the remote host, things will work just as they did in Core. You'll need to add the commands to the nrpe.cfg.
