Hi

I have successfully installed nagios core 4.08 on a centos server, and also installed a client on a solaris 10 server using the following guide ( https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... _Agent.pdf ) but I am struggling to start monitoring CPU load, Memory usage, Disk usage (file system) on the my web based central point (http://<ip address/nagios).
I have downloaded nagios pluggins from https://www.nagios.org/downloads/nagios-plugins/ them when trying to

Code: Select all

./configure
, I came up with following error:

Code: Select all

 ./configure
configure: WARNING: you should use --build, --host, --target
configure: WARNING: invalid host type: ▒
checking for a BSD-compatible install... build-aux/install-sh -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... build-aux/install-sh -c -d
checking for gawk... no
checking for mawk... no

checking whether to disable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... yes
checking build system type... Invalid configuration `▒': machine `▒' not recognized
configure: error: /bin/bash build-aux/config.sub ▒ failed
bash-3.00#
Do I also need to install gawk and mawk on the solaris 10 server?

I don't believe we internally test/develop against Solaris 10 (if we do that is news to me). There are some plugins on the Exchange that may work for you:

Otherwise there is a third-party article on getting them working on Solaris 10, though it is a bit dated:
