Roque-Nagios

Nagios plugin to monitor Roque Queues.

This plugin allows you to setup nagios monitoring on:

• Queue sizes (detect if workers are down, or they are not working fast enough)
• Queue last completed job age (detect if no jobs are being enqueued, or workers are down)
• Queue next job age (detect if jobs are taking too long to be processed)

Requirements

• Node.js >= 0.8.6
• Nagios

Installing

To download the latest version:

npm install roque-nagios

Usage

Edit your commands.cfg and add the following:

define command {
    command_name    check_roque
    command_line    $USER1$/roque-nagios/roque-nagios.js -hostname $HOSTADDRESS$ --check $ARG1$ --queues $ARG2 --warning $ARG3$ --critical $ARG4$ 
}

Now you can add monitor queues by adding:

define service {
    use                 generic-service
    hostgroup_name          Roque Queues
    service_description     Roque Queues Check
    check_command           check_roque!len!myqueuename!20!30
}

define service {
    use                 generic-service
    hostgroup_name          Roque Queues
    service_description     Roque Queues Check
    check_command           check_roque!lastcompleteage!myqueuename!1800!3600
}

define service {
    use                 generic-service
    hostgroup_name          Roque Queues
    service_description     Roque Queues Check
    check_command           check_roque!nextjobage!myqueuename,anotherqueue!30!180
}
