I'm looking at the same issue and our thoughts are to use NDO utils or
possibly custom NEB to grab perf data that way, but then still let
pnp4nagios run the 'normal' way.

Importance: High

 

Hi, 

I have a need to run two different commands when processing the
performance data from Nagios (3.2.2) 

I want the first  command to run the process-perfdata.pl script from
pnp4nagios and the second command to log various things to a different
log file. 

The reason is that we've only just had a requirement to process
performance data for pnp4nagios graphing. But historically we've created
our own "performance data" log 

which is then used within a database to produce SLA reports developed
in-house (no graphing just numbers produced for the SLA reports) 

If I do the following I don't get an errors when I run nagios -v
nagios.cfg ... :- 

define command { 
        command_name process-service-perfdata-file 
        command_line <first command> - process performance data for
pnp4nagios 
        command_line <second command> - log different data to a
different file 
        } 

I'd like to avoid creating a script with both commands in if I can help
it as it's extremely useful to keep it simple and visible in the
misccommands.cfg file. 

Perhaps there is some other way I can do this or is a script with both
commands really the only way ? 

Any help / pointers would be really appreciated. If I'm being dense
about this and the answer is staring right at me feel free to say so! 

Thanks, 
Deborah
