The check_traffic plugin is an additional pulgin that can be downloaded from
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/download/contrib/misc/check_traffic/

 

It does have several bugs which are fairly well documented on this list.

Where is the check_traffic plug-in? I don't see it in libexec.

Hello all,

 

I have spent the last week or so playing with the check_traffic plugin and
reading the archives.  I realize there are some bugs in the make-config
script and what not, I got most of that figured out.  What I haven't been
able to master is the RRD files.  I have utilized rrdtool with the proper
syntax to create the RRD files.  I went through the services.cfg to ensure I
had the proper argument for check_traffic to update the RRD files in the db
directory, I checked the check_traffic script and all syntax appears correct
for the rrdtool update command.  I checked the permissions in the db
directory and files, all looks good there (heck, I even set them to world
writeable).

 

After all that, my RRD files are still not getting updates although the
check_traffic appears to running without problem or error.  Any thoughts?  I
am not seeing any errors, but not totally sure where to look to find them.
any pointers would be helpful.

 

Thanks,

 

Mike
