'''The Nagios Grapher contrib is no longer supported.'''
{{Needs review}}
      +
The [[Nagios]] contrib now includes the PNP graphical perfomance data analyser. PNP integrates much better into Nagios 3 than Nagios Grapher. In contrast to Nagios Grpaher, PNP is under ongoing development and much better documented.

=== Introduction ===
  −
The [[Nagios Grapher]] is a Nagios addon that collects performance data and represents these as graphs. [http://www.nagioswiki.org/wiki/Addon:NagiosGrapher Read more...]
  −
 
  −
This contrib installs the Netways Nagios Grapher v1.6.1-rc5 and requires [[Nagios]] installed, configured properly and running.

  −
{{Repository|dag}}
  −
 
  −
==== Installation of the Nagios Grapher package ====
  −
/usr/bin/yum --enablerepo=dag localinstall smeserver-nagiosgrapher-*-0.noarch.rpm

  −
To add a Nagios Grapher link into the Nagios Reporting Menu apply one of the following patches:
  −
 
  −
If you have the Nuvola theme installed, run:
  −
patch -p0 /usr/share/nagios/side/dtree_data.js < /usr/share/nagios/nagiosgrapher/gui-patch/dtree_data.js-nagiosgrapher.patch
  −
 
  −
otherwise run:
  −
patch -p0 /usr/share/nagios/side.html < /usr/share/nagios/nagiosgrapher/gui-patch/side.html-nagiosgrapher.patch
  −
 
  −
=== Configuration ===
  −
You need to edit serveral configuration files:
  −
  −
in <tt>/etc/nagios/nagios.cfg</tt> add/modify
  −
cfg_dir=/etc/nagios/serviceext
  −
process_performance_data=1
  −
service_perfdata_command=process-service-perfdata
  −
 
  −
in <tt>/etc/nagios/commands.cfg</tt> add/modify
  −
define command {
  −
  command_name  process-service-perfdata
  −
  command_line  /usr/share/nagios/fifo_write.pl /var/log/nagios/rw/ngraph.pipe '$HOSTNAME$\t$SERVICEDESC$\t$SERVICEOUTPUT$\t$SERVICEPERFDATA$\n' 3
  −
}
  −
 
  −
Create files in <tt>/etc/nagios/ngraph.d</tt> to configure the graphs. You may use the files in <tt>/etc/nagios/ngraph.d/samples/</tt> as a starting point. Also consult the documentations in <tt>/usr/share/nagios/nagiosgrapher/doc/CONFIG</tt> and the links listed in the [http://wiki.contribs.org/index.php?title=Nagios_Grapher&action=submit#References References] section below.
  −
 
  −
This contribs has the file <tt>/etc/nagios/ngraph.d/cpuload.ncfg</tt> included which generates a graph for service definitons where the service descriptions contains the word "load". This works 'out of the box'.
  −
 
  −
Finally restart the services:
  −
service nagiosgrapher restart
  −
service nagios restart
  −
 
  −
'''Known problem:''' After install the nagiosgrapher won't start.
  −
 
  −
Workaround: Start the script manually:
  −
/usr/bin/perl -w /usr/share/nagios/collect2.pl
  −
After the next reboot the service will start.
  −
 
  −
'''Known problem:''' The graphes doesn't show anything
  −
 
  −
Solution: Delete corresponding rrd directory
  −
service nagiosgrapher stop
  −
rm -rf /var/lib/nagios/rrd/<HOST>
  −
service nagiosgrapher start
  −
 
  −
Make sure that all files and directories under <tt>/etc/nagios/</tt> are owned and writable by user 'nagios'.
  −
 
  −
=== Usage ===
  −
Point your browser to <nowiki>https://YOUR_SERVER/nagios/cgi-bin/graphs.cgi</nowiki>
  −
 
  −
=== Uninstall ===
