Nagios MTBF MTTR

[Christian Iñiguez]

Thanks Martin

Indeed the output of avail.cgi report is almost what I´m looking for, but how could I perform this: 
"along with a count of recoveries should
IMHO get you a long way to 
this goal. MTTR requires some more logic
but should be relatively 
simple"

Thanks again!

I don't know of a released script that does this, but all the data is
available from core Nagios. MTBF is just (total uptime - total
downtime) / number of failures, and as long as you don't have any
definition of a fault being repaired other than "nagios records
recovery" MTTR is simply a matter of averaging the time between hard
DOWN and UP state changes.

For MTBF the avail.cgi output along with a count of recoveries should
IMHO get you a long way to this goal. MTTR requires some more logic
but should be relatively simple.

If there's sufficient interest I could probably try hacking up a draft
of this, but I'd like to see if anyone else on the list has a better
idea or working code first.

Best regards,
Martin Melin
