Option to monitor status of NLS from XI

[Cpt.Ackbar]

Is there any way how to monitor status of logserver. By status I mean Green / Yellow / Red.

If there is no plugin can you describe some option how to get status from command line locally on Log server (CentOS 6)? Maybe I could prepare some script but I need to know the details about getting info from NLS API.

Thanks.

There isn't a builtin plugin to do it but if you were writing a script to do it you can get it at the following URL in JSON

Code: Select all

http://<LOGSERVER>/nagioslogserver/api/backend/_cluster/health?pretty&token=<API_KEY>

results look something like this

Code: Select all

{
    "cluster_name": "f7fdb4b5-4a39-4c78-835e-8b2435ff4e42",
    "status": "green",
    "timed_out": false,

    "number_of_data_nodes": 2,
