check_cluster config

[stephen wing]

Hi Thomas
	One further question relating to the check_cluster command.
As I understand it, the check_cluster is setup so that it checks for the OK
state. Can it be setup to use WARNING state also, ie so that if I am
monitoring 2 hosts and I have a Critical on 1 host and Warning on the 2nd
host, I would like to have Warning status on the check cluster command, also
if I have Critical against both hosts, then the check_cluster reports
Critical.
Is this possible ?

Regards
Stephen

Hi Thomas
	I replaced the Shared_disk variable with /hcndata Free Space and
this worked fine. Thanks for the help.

Then substitute "Shared_disk" with "/hcndata Free Space"

If you look the the command definition, what becomes the "-l" argument
is just a label (What will be printed in the service status). In the
example I wrote the label is the 3rd argument.

The other arguments are macro definitions used to fetch the status of
specific services on specific hosts
($SERVICESTATEID:host_name:service_description$). This will return the
numerical equivalent of the Nagios status (0=>OK, 1=>WARNING,
2=>CRITICAL, etc.).

check_cluster gets the status (passed to "-d") and send a critical alert
when more than 1 service is non-OK ("-c 1"). if you want to warn only
you can use "-w 1" instead of "-c 1"

you can run check_cluster yourself to see the results:

$ ./check_cluster -s -d 0,2 -l "Shared disk" -c 1
CLUSTER OK: Shared disk: 1 ok, 0 warning, 0 unknown, 1 critical
$ ./check_cluster -s -d 1,2 -l "Shared disk" -c 1
CLUSTER CRITICAL: Shared disk: 0 ok, 1 warning, 0 unknown, 1 critical
