Hardware monitoring

Post by RIDS_I2MP »

Hello Team,

Could you please let us know if Hardware monitoring is possible through Nagios?
Hardware can be of any server, router, switch or rack in datacenter.

Another question is, as we can have a centralized view of Nagios XI, Nagios Core and Nagios Log server in Nagios Fusion.
Is there a possibility to integrate Network Analyzer as well in Nagios Fusion?

Thanks in advance!!
Thanks & Regards,
I2MP Team.

Can you provide more details on your question "Could you please let us know if Hardware monitoring is possible through Nagios?"

The Nagios Network Analyzer is for analyzing network traffic using the flow data from switches, router, firewalls, etc.
If you are looking for information like CPU utilization, memory, interface status, it cannot do that.


Fusion currently cannot be connected to the Nagios Network Analyzer system but that feature is on the roadmap for the next major release of Fusion.

Hello,

Below are the example of hardware devices:
server room
datacentre hardware devices
cooling
UPS

Can we monitor all these using Nagios XI?
Thanks & Regards,

That is a pretty generic question to ask but if there is a plugin written to monitor the devices you need, then XI should be able to monitor it.
Search here for any plugins that monitor the devices you are looking to monitor.
