Charts and Graphs and Nagios Oh My!

[Carlos Mauricio Reyes Sanmiguel]

Hi there, 

I installed the PNP for Nagios, I did all the steps in teh configuration, 
it seem really easy, but when i try to display the graphic i get the 
following.

I try accesing the page like this:

http://10.0.2.**/nagios/pnp-0.2.4/index.php?host=%3CBC_4506%3E&srv=%3CGi3_1%3E 


The page display the following:

 OK Initalising 
 OK Useing /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/
OK RRDTool /usr/local/rrdtool-1.2.15/bin/rrdtool found.
OK RRD Base Directory /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/ found.
OK Hostname is set.
! Directory /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/ not found.
Does anybody knows what this means?,  am I missing something in the 
configuration?, I also check the folder perfdata, and i see some folders 
for some of the routers i'm monitoring with nagios, but i can't see all, i 
don't know why it shows only some of them, i also put the line of process 
data in the nagios configuration of the router's service but it seems that 
is not creating the perfdata folder with the php file and the rrd.
Thanks.
creyes

Then have a look at PNP and remember how long you need to get
nagiosgrapher to work ;)

PNP is realy simple to install.

1. Download
2. unpack
3. copy process-perfdata.pl
4. edit process-perfdata.pl in one line to fit for the directory where
the "gui" looks into for rrd files
5. edit the gui configfile to fit the directory mentioned above
6. edit nagios.cfg to process the perfdata with process-perfdata.pl
7. restart nagios and wait a few minutes

I guess even for beginners it is a job for 15 up to 30 minutes and after
this it just works.

Best wishes
Hendrik
