Hi Support Team,

Thanks for your update.

The things is that we are using Mod Gearman concept in customer environment and we can not directly scan the data through Nagios XI monitoring tool because we are using Probe server to get data of customer devices.

Which VM need to monitor through Nagios XI monitoring tool that VM is related to Linux but that is the custom Linux so please suggest that we can use any agent, SNMP for adding monitoring of that VM services, as customer want to monitor CPU, Memory and Disk for that VM through Ngaios XI monitoring tool.

Also share steps if any Agent is suitable for that VM monitoring.

Also let us know if any details is require from our side to check feasibility.

Thanks,

Hi,

You could try the Linux SNMP configuration wizard

It covers the parameters you are looking to monitor:

You will need to make sure snmp is installed on the VMs, is running as a service, and will allow access from
the Nagios xi server. The Access Control is configured in /etc/snmp/snmp.conf

Give it a try and let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks
