17.2.1. Installing Nagios Server
Use the following command to install Nagios server:
# yum install nagios-server-addons
You must install Nagios on the node which would be used as the Nagios server.
17.2.2. Configuring Red Hat Gluster Storage Nodes for Nagios
Configure all the Red Hat Gluster Storage nodes, including the node on which the Nagios server is installed.
Note
If SELinux is configured, the sebooleans must be enabled on all Red Hat Gluster Storage nodes and the node on which Nagios server is installed.
Enable the following sebooleans on Red Hat Enterprise Linux node if Nagios server is installed.
# setsebool -P logging_syslogd_run_nagios_plugins on # setsebool -P nagios_run_sudo on
To configure the nodes, follow the steps given below:
- In
/etc/nagios/nrpe.cfgfile, add the central Nagios server IP address as shown below:allowed_hosts=127.0.0.1, NagiosServer-HostName-or-IPaddress
- Restart the
NRPEservice using the following command:# service nrpe restart
Note
- The host name of the node is used while configuring Nagios server using auto-discovery. To view the host name, run
hostnamecommand. - Ensure that the host names are unique.
- Start the
glusterpmdservice using the following command:# service glusterpmd start
To startglusterpmdservice automatically when the system reboots, runchkconfig --add glusterpmdcommand.You can start theglusterpmdservice usingservice glusterpmd startcommand and stop the service usingservice glusterpmd stopcommand.Theglusterpmdservice is a Red Hat Gluster Storage process monitoring service running in every Red Hat Gluster Storage node to monitor glusterd, self heal, smb, quotad, ctdbd and brick services and to alert the user when the services go down. Theglusterpmdservice sends its managing services detailed status to the Nagios server whenever there is a state change on any of its managing services.This service uses/etc/nagios/nagios_server.conffile to get the Nagios server name and the local host name given in the Nagios server. Thenagios_server.confis configured by auto-discovery.
