RES: NSClient

[Sandro Vaz (UOL)]

Matthew:
 
It has been discussed here that NSClient has serious problems regading the
"-v COUNTER" option. Search the previous e-mails and you´ll see.
 
And trying to monitor Exchange 5.5 mail queues through SNMP, I discovered
that Microsoft SNMP implementation get that values from Performance Monitor
counters. I say it because in one client, Exchange counters were corrupted
and we tried to get them from SNMP instead of NSClient, and only when we
rebuilt the perfmon counters the monitoring worked out.
 
HTH,

Dear All, 

On the subject of Nsclient and monitoring Windows servers I was wondering if
anybody has got Nsclient monitoring Windows 2000 SP3 performance monitors
reliably. We are using Nagios V1.0 and Plugins 1.3.0. 

If anybody is then please let me know - then I can assume I am doing
something wrong. 

I accept that you can install other SNMP counters etc, but I am trying to
make network monitoring as easy as possible - with as fewer clients
installed on servers. I have included a sample check command below. 

I'd be greateful of any help !! 

Thanks 

Matthew

-l "\\Paging File(_Total)\\% Usage","Paging file usage is %.2f %%" -w 70 -c

        }
