Nagios Plugin Configuration
===========================
Configure Access to Nagios
--------------------------
The following should be set in **/etc/vitrage/vitrage.conf**, under [nagios] section:
+------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+-------------------------------+
| Name | Description | Default Value |
+==================+=========================================================+===============================+
| user | Nagios user | |
+------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+-------------------------------+
| password | Nagios password | |
+------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+-------------------------------+
| url | Nagios url for querying the data | |
+------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+-------------------------------+
| config_file | Nagios configuration file | /etc/vitrage/nagios_conf.yaml |
+------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+-------------------------------+
| changes_interval | Interval of checking changes in the configuration files | 30 seconds |
+------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+-------------------------------+
**Note:** To avoid issues with paging, it is recommended for the URL to be of
the form *http://<nagios site url>/cgi-bin/status.cgi*, which returns all the
nagios tests.
**Example**
::
[nagios]
user = omdadmin
password = omd
url = http://10.20.30.40/monitoring/nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi
config_file = /etc/vitrage/nagios_conf.yaml
Configure Nagios Host Mapping
-----------------------------
Nagios tests are defined in a table with columns: Host, Service, Status, Last Check, etc.
Nagios "Host" is not necessarily a resource of type host. It can also be an instance, switch, or other resource types. **nagios_conf.yaml** is used to map Nagios host type to a Vitrage resource.
**Format**
::
nagios:
- nagios_host: <Host as appears in Nagios>
type: <resource type in Vitrage>
name: <resource name in Vitrage>
- nagios_host: <Host as appears in Nagios>
type: <resource type in Vitrage>
name: <resource name in Vitrage>
...
**Example**
The following file will map compute-1 to a nova.host named compute-1; and compute-2 to a nova.host named host2
::
nagios:
- nagios_host: compute-1
type: nova.host
name: compute-1
- nagios_host: compute-2
type: nova.host
name: host2
**Default Configuration**
A default nagios_conf.yaml will be installed with Vitrage. Its content is still TBD, but it will be similar to the following example.
All Nagios hosts named host* or * -devstack will be mapped in Vitrage to resoruces of type nova.host with the same name; and all Nagios hosts named instance* will be mapped to nova.instance resources.
::
nagios:
- nagios_host: host-(.*)
type: nova.host
name: ${nagios_host}
- nagios_host: (.*)-devstack
type: nova.host
name: ${nagios_host}
- nagios_host: instance-(.*)
type: nova.instance
name: ${nagios_host}
