How can I monitor my Red Hat Virtualization Hypervisors RHV-H with nagios? I am now checking only ping connectivity ... I need to capture more from the nodes and the virt. environment?

The only plugin that found on the Nagios Exchange (that *may* work) is this one:

2. Type `make' to compile the package.

3. Optionally, type `make check' to run any self-tests that come with

You don't need to (and frankly, you shouldn't) do it on the production server. You should always try things like that in a test environment, BEFORE applying them to production. Every Nagios XI License key is valid for 3 installs - production, test, and backup.
