Can I get more details on this?

To use the plugin you need to enable SNMP on Windows machines. The

plugins can be downloaded of of Nagios Exchange

Just as a reminder that I'm using Nagios 2.0 FreeBSD 6.0 plugin version 1.4.

To use the plugin you need to enable SNMP on Windows machines. The

plugins can be downloaded of of Nagios Exchange. To use them just place

the plugin in the default plugin location (/usr/local/nagios/libexec for

my 3.0a2 instance). Once you do that, set up command and service

definitions and apply them to the host you want to monitor.

Hi Marc,

 

I have searched on the net about SNMP plugin but could not get any

consistent answer as on how to install it on my server.

By the way most of the servers that I want to monitor their disk info

don't

have SNMP installed.

 

What is the way forward?

Every one help is welcome.

 

Thanks

That's because those plugins check things that are externally exposed to

the Internet (or your network) for remote hosts by default or by

necessity. Systems don't (usually) make their disk info available to

external hosts for obvious reasons. It's a key distinction that should

help you understand how to monitor remote hosts.
