<div>Thanks Andre,</div> <div> </div> <div>I see there's an agent to deploy on the remote computer. I will certainly take a look.</div> <div> </div> <div>I'm still looking for other options as well.</div> <div> </div> <div>Thanks.<br><br></div> <div class="gmail_quote">2011/4/13 Michel Cote <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:ct.michelcote@gmail.com">ct.michelcote@gmail.com</a>></span><br> <blockquote style="BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; PADDING-LEFT: 1ex" class="gmail_quote"><br><br> <div class="gmail_quote"> <div> <div></div> <div class="h5">2011/4/13 Andre Kruger <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:Andre.Kruger@trw.com" target="_blank">Andre.Kruger@trw.com</a>></span><br></div></div> <blockquote style="BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; PADDING-LEFT: 1ex" class="gmail_quote"> <div> <div></div> <div class="h5"> <div style="MARGIN: 4px 4px 1px; FONT: 10pt Tahoma">Another option to look at would be check_mk. I am not sure if this tool can save the output of the checks to file, but you can always email the creator of the plugin and ask him. check_mk works exclusively with passive checks.<br> <br>>>> Michel Cote <<a href="mailto:ct.michelcote@gmail.com" target="_blank">ct.michelcote@gmail.com</a>> 2011/04/13 15:06 >>> <div> <div></div> <div><br> <div>Hi list,</div> <div></div> <div>First time poster here but I've read a lot of emails so many thanks for that.</div> <div></div> <div>I don't know how to search for what I'm looking so I'm going to simply ask and hope someone has seen or made something that would suit what I need.</div> <div></div> <div>So here's the setup:</div> <div></div> <div>I currently use Nagios to scan over 700 routers (Cisco 1800 series) on our network. Basically we have a little over 700 stores connected to the internet and using a VPN to form a network with our servers. So currently Nagios is pinging those routers to make sure they are up and connected.</div> <div></div> <div>Behind those routeurs I have an office computer and several cash registers. As a security precaution those computers are not reachable from my linux box and Nagios of course.</div> <div></div> <div>There is a very simple system that allows those computers to send files back to our servers by secure FTP.</div> <div></div> <div>Ok so what I'm looking for is a software that would work in the background on those computers and scan for CPU usage, Memory, hard drives and if possible temperature. If certain conditions are met (like shortage of disk space) a file would be produced in a specific folder and the our automatic FTP system would grab it and transfer that to our servers... >From there it's a simple matter to transfer it to my linux box and make it availlable to Nagios as a passive check.</div> <div></div> <div>Has anyone heard of such a software? I've looked into NsClient++ but I have no clue if it's able to save the scans to file if it does it would probably be a pretty good tool for what I'm looking for.</div> <div></div> <div>Another question I have is about the passive check function. I understand how it works but what I'm not sure of is how to make sure the files that would be produced by the remote software will be correctly formated for Nagios to understand it.</div> <div></div> <div>Thanks in advance for any help offered.</div> <div></div> <div>Michel Côté</div><br></div></div> <div><br><font color="green" size="2" face="Webdings"><span>P</span></font><span><font color="green" size="2" face="Arial"> Please consider your environmental responsibility before printing this e-mail or any other document.
