* For instructions on installing this plugin for use with Nagios,
see below. In addition, generic instructions for the GNU toolchain
can be found in the INSTALL file.
* For major changes between releases, read the CHANGES file.
* For information on detailed changes that have been made,
read the Changelog file.
* This plugin is self-documenting. All plugins that comply with
the basic guidelines for development will provide detailed help when
invoked with the '-h' or '--help' options.
You can check for the latest plugin at:
http://labs.consol.de/nagios/check_nwc_health
Send mail to [email protected] for assistance.
Please include the OS type and version that you are using.
Also, run the plugin with the '-vvv' option and provide the resulting
version information. Of course, there may be additional diagnostic information
required as well. Use good judgment.
How to "compile" the check_nwc_health script.
--------------------------------------------------------
1) Run the configure script to initialize variables and create a Makefile, etc.
./configure --prefix=BASEDIRECTORY --with-nagios-user=SOMEUSER --with-nagios-group=SOMEGROUP --with-perl=PATH_TO_PERL
a) Replace BASEDIRECTORY with the path of the directory under which Nagios
is installed (default is '/usr/local/nagios')
b) Replace SOMEUSER with the name of a user on your system that will be
assigned permissions to the installed plugins (default is 'nagios')
c) Replace SOMEGRP with the name of a group on your system that will be
assigned permissions to the installed plugins (default is 'nagios')
d) Replace PATH_TO_PERL with the path where a perl binary can be found.
Besides the system wide perl you might have installed a private perl
just for the nagios plugins (default is the perl in your path).
2) "Compile" the plugin with the following command:
make
This will produce a "check_nwc_health" script. You will also find
a "check_nwc_health.pl" which you better ignore. It is the base for
the compilation filled with placeholders. These will be replaced during
the make process.
3) Install the compiled plugin script with the following command:
make install
The installation procedure will attempt to place the plugin in a
'libexec/' subdirectory in the base directory you specified with
the --prefix argument to the configure script.
4) Verify that your configuration files for Nagios contains
the correct paths to the new plugin.
Command line parameters
-----------------------
You'll find the command line parameters on the website mentioned above.
If it does not exist or is not up to date, this means that i hadn't the
time to write/update it yet. I am aware of it, so please don't send me
mails. Just accept it.
