Hobbit plugin to monitor Cacti

[fmangeant]

Hi

here's a script I'm using with Hobbit Monitor (AKA Big Brother) to monitor Cacti.

It includes monitoring :

• the logfile size
  
• the logfile age (to ensure the poller is running)
  
• the # of Cacti processus running
  
• the # of RRD databases up to date
  
• ...
  

Here's a screenshot :



Some variables need to be changed inside the script, for example :

For an information junkie like myself, this works great!

Fired it up and it's reporting Cacti stats.

Nice script!

Hi

it should work out of the box, as I'm using BB compatible variables ($BBTMP, $BBDISP, $BB).

You might want to add this at the top of the script if you want to run it by hand for testing :
