add new check to cacti<\/a>
\n<\/p>\n

As promised the example.<\/p>\n

This example creates a graph that shows active memory usage for a Windows System. The script uses the Nagios\/NetSaint plugins to interrogate the Nagios\/NetSaint agent installed on the Windows System.<\/p>\n

1. I want to view Committted and Available Memory, this means that I will have to create a multiple outplut script<\/p>\n

2. The perl script that will interrogate the Windows Performance Counter
\nCode:<\/p>\n

#!\/usr\/bin\/perl<\/p>\n

$avail = `\/usr\/lib\/nagios\/plugins\/check_nt -H $ARGV[0] -p 20000 -v COUNTER -l “\\\\Memory\\\\Available Bytes”`;
\nchomp $avail;
\n$commit = `\/usr\/lib\/nagios\/plugins\/check_nt -H $ARGV[0] -p 20000 -v COUNTER -l “\\\\Memory\\\\Committed Bytes”`;
\nchomp $commit;
\nprint “commit:$commit avail:$avail\\n”;<\/p>\n

\n3. The Data Input Method in Cacti: See attached file ‘DataInputMethod.jpg”
\n– The “Input String” field is equal to:
\n“perl \/scripts\/check_nt_mem.pl “<\/p>\n

4. The Data Source Template: See attached File “DataSource.jpg”
\n– The Data source Item “Mem_Commit” uses the output field “commit – Committed Memory”<\/p>\n

5. The Graph Template: See attached File “Graph.jpg”<\/p>\n

6. You can now add a Polling Host and use the graph template.<\/p>\n

Hope this helps,
