Hi
You could use SNMP to get:
Code: Select all
SNMPv2-MIB::sysDescr.0 = STRING: Hardware: Intel64 Family 6 Model 63 Stepping 2 AT/AT COMPATIBLE - Software: Windows Version 6.3 (Build 9600 Multiprocessor Free)
If you wanted to use a script you could create something like:
Code: Select all
@echo off
set ERRORLEVEL=2
for /f "tokens=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 delims= " %%i in ('C:\Windows\System32\systeminfo.exe') do (
if %%i==OS (
if %%j==Name: (
echo %%k %%l %%m %%n %%o %%p
set ERRORLEVEL=0
)
)
)
And put it in C:\Program Files (x86)\Nagios\ncpa\plugins on the machine to be monitored. Then call it from the XI server with check_ncpa.py
The issue I see with that is if you are going to the trouble of installing a script on the remote Windows server
it would be just as easy to check the OS rather than deploying the script
Thanks
