You will be prompted to set a nagios password during installation. And can now navigate to http:\/\/localhost\/nagios3\/ to access nagios. The admin username is nagiosadmin, and the password is that which you set during installation.<\/p>\n
The following is based on the example here<\/a>. It’s probably better to refer to that for full APC UPS monitoring instructions. I’m going to be looking at monitoring the Arduino I previously setup<\/a>.<\/p>\n
Add the following to \/etc\/nagios3\/:<\/p>\n
\r\ncfg_file=\/etc\/nagios3\/objects\/ups.cfg\r\n<\/pre>\n
Then create the file \/etc\/nagios3\/objects\/ups.cfg, with the following contents (you will also need to create the objects directory):<\/p>\n

Then add the following to the end of \/etc\/nagios3\/commands.cfg:<\/p>\n
\r\n# 'snmp_ups_capacity' command definition\r\ndefine command{\r\n        command_name    snmp_ups_capacity\r\n        command_line    $USER1$\/check_snmp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C $ARG1$ -o .1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.2.1.0 -l '\\Battery Charge\\' -u '\\%\\' \r\n        }\r\n<\/pre>\n
If you click on Services in Nagios you should now see the following:<\/p>\n
\"ardvolt\"<\/a><\/p>\n
I might try this with cacti<\/a> next. Which in my previous experience seems a lot better than Nagios.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
