Re: [Netsaintplug-help] Writing a new plugin

[Edgard <ed...@te...>]

I write my pluging check_notes:

1-  I declare it on the nrpe.cfg (client machine)
      # grep check_notes nrpe.cfg
      command[check_notes]=3D/usr/local/netsaint/check_notes.sh

2- I declare the plugin in netsaint machine, file host.cfg

      # grep check_notes hosts.cfg

service[dsl102]=3DNOTES;0;24x7;1;2;1;webpin;120;24x7;1;1;0;;check_nrpe!=
check_notes


3- when I run the command from the prompt I get the following responce

      When the notes is down:
            # /opt/sfw/lib/netsaint/plugins/check_nrpe 10.74.72.43 -c
check_notes
            Critical

      When the notes is UP
            # /opt/sfw/lib/netsaint/plugins/check_nrpe 10.74.72.43 -c
check_notes
            OK

4- In the status.log, I have the followin message, when the service is =
UP

[1031166917] SERVICE;dsl102;NOTES;OK;1/1;HARD;1031166845;1031166965;ACT=
IVE;1;1;1;1031129137;0;OK;69196;0;0;400;0;0;1;0;0;1;0;0.00;0;
OK

when the service is down, i have the folowing message

[1031166917] SERVICE;dsl102;NOTES;OK;1/1;HARD;1031166845;1031166965;ACT=
IVE;1;1;1;1031129137;0;OK;69196;0;0;400;0;0;1;0;0;1;0;0.00;0;
Critical

But,  only status information change, the current status only change wh=
en the plugin can't be execute.

Should I declare my plugin like a new command in the COMMAND CONFIGURAT=
ION section in the hosts.cfg

Thanks

Take a look at the plugin developers guidelines on the nagiosplug
homepage.

If you are going to execute it on a remote system, are you using NRPE a=
s a
conduit between the monitoring host and the target?  If so, you need an=

entry for the plugin and all its parameters in nrpe.cfg.

On the netsaint side, you need an entry for check_nrpe in commands.cfg
(should be there already) and an entry in hosts.cfg for a service check=

using check_nrpe with arg=3Dplugin name defined in nrpe.cfg

Hope this helps.
