NCPA_PLUGIN

Post by yybadrou »

Hello,

I am monitoring a windows host using NAGIOS XI and NCPA Client.
Inside this machine I have a software called KepServer with a LICENCE.
I have coded a python script (check_kepserver_licence) that once it's executed on this windows host, it returns if the licence is expired or up-to-date.
This script takes three arguments related to Kepware Server.
I want to know how can I have this information automatically on my NAGIOS GUI ? I don't know how can I configure my ncpa.cfg file and what command in /usr/local/nagios/libexec repository I have to use ? is It check_xi_ncpa or check_nrpe, do I have to create a new command or do I have a solution to execute my python script directly from Nagios Server?

Thank you so much

And here:

You should be able to use Configure > Configuration Wizards > NCPA and setup the plugin at the bottom.
