Hi !

Unfortunatley i've haven't get  xynagios to run .. :-(
* xynagios: adaptor for running Nagios plugins with Xymon
Is it possible to get an simple example for "How to use it" ... ?

.. thinking, it could be very helpful
to adapt the big repository of nagios-pluggins, couldn't it ?

thanks & cheers

I tested and works great.
Xynagios is a very good script, thanks a lot to the developer Christoph Berg.
There are others plugins on the package.
In my opinion this is excelent! Should be available at http://xymonton.trantor.org/doku.php  too.

Regards,

Mario.

      Hi Martin,

      I just took a quick peek into the file and it is a perl script that says in the description:

      <xynagios> runs a Nagios check, and reports its output in a way compatible
      with the Xymon (Hobbit, BB) monitoring system.

      The Xymon test name is taken from the plugin output if it starts with
      test_name <OK|WARNING|CRITICAL|ERROR|UNKNOWN>. Otherwise, the basename
      of the plugin filename is used. A check prefix is removed for brevity.

      So it seems you can run Nagios tests in XYmon with this script.

      And since this is a perl script you might only need some additional modules that can be found in the Debian package
      libsysadm-install-perl and maybe there is a similar package for Red Hat too.

      HTH

      how the pluggin xynagios is to use ?

      Helper software:

       * xynagios: adaptor for running Nagios plugins with Xymon


      I've found it in the debian-packes
      http://packages.debian.org/de/sid/hobbit-plugins

      And is there a version for RHEL or is that equal ?

      Thanks & Cheers
