Posted: Sat Oct 20, 2018 8:47 am
Hi,
We have self-hosted monitoring server (Nagios) in Mumbai AWS region to monitor all the hosts and services hosted in Singapore and Dublin region.We are currently observing latencies between the monitoring system hosted in Mumbai and Singapore, Dublin AWS region.
I will appreciate if anyone can let me know the best practices round trip average ping ICMP response within AWS Network Infrastructure and if there are documents to understand the latency metrics. I am referring to https://www.cloudping.co/ and the setup are as below:-
Nagios Monitoring hosted in ap-south-1 Asia Pacific (Mumbai)
Servers hosted in ap-southeast-1 Asia Pacific (Singapore) and eu-west-1 EU (Ireland).
I am setting warning and critical thresholds as per https://www.monitoring-plugins.org/doc/ ... _ping.html. I will appreciate if you can let me know the recommended warning and critical thresholds in Nagios.
define service {
use generic-service
host_name server1.domain.com
service_description PING
check_command check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60%
contact_groups email,sms,pagerduty
}
Currently i am getting warning alerts for check_ping service in Nagios. Any help will be highly appreciable and i look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks in Advance.
Best Regards,
