Setting up NRPE on HP UX

[jmoseley at corp.xanadoo.com]

Good documentation can be found at:

http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/nrpe/NRPE.pdf

Basically, you have to install NRPE on the host you want monitored *and*
any plugins that NRPE daemon on that host will call.  If you want to
monitor things specific to HP UX, then you'll have to write custom plugins.
You will also have to configure nrpe.cfg on the monitored host in order to
define check commands, which Nagios hosts(s) are allowed to talk to the
NRPE daemon, etc.

Then you have to install the check_nrpe plugin on the Nagios host doing the
monitoring.

Next, in the services config on the Nagios host, you have to define that
you are checking a particular service via NRPE.  For example:

check_command                   check_nrpe!<host.abc.com>!check_nagios

That tells Nagios that you want to check host 'host.abc.com' via NRPE and
that the NRPE daemon on remote host.abc.com should call the check_nagios
plugin (in order to see if Nagios is running on the remote host).

This should get you started...

Hi All!

I have 2 machines with Unix HP UX, and I'd like to monitoring
them installing nrpe, but I haven't found documentation or how to's about
it.

On Linux plataform is working very well, but it's a kind of difficult to do
it on UNIX (HP UX)

Does any body know how can perform this?

Thanks in advance
