Anyone using Xymon to monitor their filers?  I know there's a perl client on deadcat, but I believe is uses RSH, which is a no go for me.  I'm hoping there's something out there like Jeremy's rclient before I go and reinvent the wheel.

I'm adding the list in.

Because RSH is plaintext.

Why not hobbit-perl-client(netapp.pl<http://netapp.pl>;) and rsh?
It works pretty well for me.

Hmm, i use it with ssh :-)

  grep -i ssh ../netapp.ini
# asisshowrule    = [yes|no] default yes
rshcommand              = /usr/bin/ssh -x -a -l root

Great tip with SSH, I appreciate that.  I'm having trouble getting it running, though.  Do I need to apply the patches?  There for hobbit and the paths in the diff reference hobbit and not Xymon.  I'm on Xymon 4.3.11.  Without the patch I get a message from the script saying it's skipping the filer because it's not in bbhost, however, it is in hosts.cfg.  

If I need to apply the patch, which I probably do as it seems to have fixed this error in 2008, how do I go about converting it for Xymon?  Just find and replace?

I'm monitoring our Netapp filers via SNMP with devmon, only. This checks 
the cluster status, connection, disks, operations, volumes, and transfer 
rates. Everything you need.

  I'm running it on the Xymon server, but I was running it off the command line, so my issues were variables that weren't exported.  Now that I'm actually executing it through Xymon there's not problem with getting it running.  The only thing that's curious is my cluster test appears yellow despite there not appearing to be an issue, at least to my eyes.  Here's the results I'm getting.


[yellow] Controller Failover enabled, FILER is up.

  current time: 04Sep2013 11:12:40
  UP 52+20:28:09, partner 'OTHERFILER', cluster monitor enabled
  VIA Interconnect is up (link up), takeover capability on-line
  partner update TAKEOVER_ENABLED (04Sep2013 11:12:39)

I saw a message from '08 that was asking the same question, but there didn't appear to be a response to it.

Hi,

Where are you running the netapp.pl<http://netapp.pl>? On a client?On a bbproxy?
The message "it's not in bbhosts" , It's because you don't get answer from #bb xymonip "query host".

Mario
