Mount Point Monitoring on the Linux Servers

I am planning to monitor the Mount Points on the Linux Servers.

I tried to download the following Plugin:
https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/P ... is/details

But it is not allowing to download the file. It is opening the Script in a new window.

I copy and pasted the Script in a notepad and saved it as .sh file. When i try to test the script it is giving the following error:

sudo: unable to execute ./check_mount.sh: No such file or directory

Any Ideas??

Did you give the script execute permissions?

Hi Box,

Thanks for the reply.

I am able to download the script now.

As per the script we need to define the separate command for each and every mount point.

Is there a way to monitor all the mountpoints by defining one command. We have some servers which have large number of mountpoints.

Hi Amit,

One option is a plugin on the Nagios Exchange that will allow you to combine multiple checks into one plugin.

Alternatively, you could create separate checks and then use the Business Process Integilence component to pool everything together and set health criteria.

Using BPI in Nagios XI

I am using the Nagios Core 4.3

I don't think so that Nagios BPI will serve my purpose here.

My challenge is writing the x number of commands/definition for x number of mount points in the nrpe.cfg file.

I was looking for a single command/definition in the nrpe.cfg file for all the mount points on a server.

Amit

Hi Amit,

Did you have a chance to take a look at the check_multi plugin?

check_multi does not support the Nagios 4.x

Is that just because it says it is a 3.x plugin ? Normally plugins created in older versions will work in the newer versions but I'm sure there are situations when this is not the case.

Download URL is not working. Can you check if it is working for you.

Website seems to white for me.

Perhaps you can download the github repo and compile the plugin yourself:
