Adding custom service to nagiosgraph
- by ravloony
I have successfully added nagiosgraph to our nagios installation. I also added a memory checker plugin, from here : http://blog.vergiss-blackjack.de/2010/04/nagios-plugin-to-check-memory-consumption/. However I can't seem to get the graph of this service to be output by nagiosgraph.
The plugin returns a single line like this:
31% (3785 of 11903 MB) used
so i added a rule like this to the map file:
/output:(\d+)% \((\d+) of (\d+) MB\) used/
and push @s, ['Mem',
['Percentage', 'GUAGE', $1],
['Used', 'GUAGE', $2],
['Total', 'GUAGE', $3] ];
I have also read this : http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg36835.html and made sure that process_performance_data=1 in the nagios conf file.
So far I have no graph for the Mem service on any host, and no rrd file either. I am unsure how to proceed to get this working. The documentation is rather difficult to follow and I haven't managed yet to understand it enough to do this.
Can anyone point me to a tutorial, or some documentation which explains the steps needed to get a service noticed and graphed by nagiosgraph?
