Nagios Support Forum

Hello Everyone,

I have to monitor the IIS6/7 and MSSQL 2005/2008 through the nagios. I am using Nagios Core 3 and monitoring other windows and Linux machines. Could somebody help me to monitor these services too.

thank you.

That really depends what components you are trying to monitor... for IIS use the check_http script to see if the web server is responding, use NSClient++ to check the web services are started and use Nagios Event Log to capture anything that is logged by the web application (if there is one) to the event log.

Same thing goes for SQL, except you may need to ask your DBA's/Application owners if there's any queries you need to be running against the database to confirm the health of it, you could also use a WMI call or NSClient's windows counter check to gauge the performance of SQL.

thank you Murphy. I am on it now.
