Monitoring Nginx 🔗 link

Hello,
 
Do some of you use Xymon to monitor Nginx ? Basically, you could use the
stub-status module (http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpStubStatusModule) to
enable the status handler within Nginx. The output is similar to : 
 
Active connections: 291
server accepts handled requests
  16630948 16630948 31070465
Reading: 6 Writing: 179 Waiting: 106
 
It shouldn't be difficult to write some scripts to achieve this task but
I ask, just in case...
Sincerly,
 
Thomas S

I assume this data can then be requested via a standard HTTP request, i.e. it is available in a web browser ?

In that case, a simple http-test in Xymon would do it. Probably with an added content-check, e.g.

   10.0.0.1 nginx1 # \
       cont=nginx;http://nginx1/nginx_status;server.accepts.*requests

This will check that the data returned contains the "server accepts handled requests" string.

Don't know if it would make sense to track any of these in Xymon, but I see there is already a pointer in the Wiki to monitoring with rrdtool, so adding graphs shouldn't be at all difficult.

Good day

All a could find on the interwebs that could help me to monitor nginx was

https://github.com/ZeWaren/xymon-nginx

and

http://lists.xymon.com/archive/2011-March/031188.html

I followed the xymon-nginx.pl guide to the tee, but the graphs do not display, the rrd data is generated and I can view the rrd data with the rrdtool.

What is the suggested method to monitor nginx and track performance data.

Kind regards

Good day

I had no response from the xymon mail list regarding nginx monitoring.

Make me think that it was a bad decision from my side to use nginx.

Kind regards
