Hi there,
I''m writing a manifests for some Nagios check, like this:
nagios_service {
''check_http_test.salesforce.com'':> use => ''generic-service'',
> check_command =>
''remote-nrpe-tcp-check!test.salesforce.com!443'',
> service_description => ''CON: test.salesforce'',
> display_name => ''Connection check:
test.salesforce.com:443'',
> servicegroups => ''cloud'',
> hostgroup_name => ''cloud-app'',
> }
>
There are almost 30 of them and the the only difference between the checks
are that hostname and port number. Is there anyway to automate this
process, instead of specifying these 30 times statically? I was thinking
putting those values in an array and loop through it to generate the
resultant "nagios_service.cfg". How can I do that? Cheers!!

Re: [Puppet Users] Automating nagios_service resource type
I found this a while ago to so I wrote a module to do it easily. It''s on the forge here. https://forge.puppetlabs.com/rendhalver/monitoring I also have an nrpe module which may help here https://forge.puppetlabs.com/rendhalver/nrpe On 15 February 2013 10:15, Sans <r.santanu.das@gmail.com> wrote:> Hi there, > > I''m writing a manifests for some Nagios check, like this: > > > nagios_service { ''check_http_test.salesforce.com'': >> use => ''generic-service'', >> check_command => ''remote-nrpe-tcp-check!test.salesforce.com >> !443'', >> service_description => ''CON: test.salesforce'', >> display_name => ''Connection check: test.salesforce.com:443'', >> servicegroups => ''cloud'', >> hostgroup_name => ''cloud-app'', >> } >> > > > There are almost 30 of them and the the only difference between the checks > are that hostname and port number.

I do admit the docs are a bit sparse but I have tried to name everything with sensible descriptive names. If you get stuck, find a bug or would like a new feature give me a shout. I use github for my code so you can also submit a bug there if you like so I can keep track of it. I do use it in my infrastructure and it gets updated when I fix things. I do also test the crap out of it before I push it to forge so that is the best version to use. Good luck!.

Re: [Puppet Users] Automating nagios_service resource type
Is there a reason your not using exported nagios resources instead? http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/exported_resources.html We''re using it in production and it works quite well with puppetdb as the backend.

I''m also using Exported-resource in my module and, if I understood correctly, I still need to loop through the same sort values, e.g. addr1 port1 addr2 port2 ..... on the same host to construct the checks. My understanding of storeconfig, it works pretty well for collecting similar type of values from different hosts. Is it possible to put together a few lines code for reference? Cheers!!
