Installation Requirements

• libfile-which-perl
• storcli

Requirements for Icinga/Nagios

• On the system to be monitored:
  • check_lsi_raid plugin
  • storcli
  • sudoers entry for user nagios and storcli (example: nagios ALL=(root) NOPASSWD:/usr/sbin/storcli)
• NRPE (optional): command definition
• On the Icinga-server:
  • command definition
  • service definition

Installation hints for CentOS

• It is possible that the NRPE daemon runs as user 'nrpe'. If that's the case you have to change the user in the sudoers entry.
• It may be necessary to specify the perl interpretor explicitly in the NRPE command definition, e.g.: command[check_lsi_raid]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_lsi_raid -C 0 -p /usr/sbin/storcli

Parameter usage (example)

./check_lsi_raid -Tw 40 -Tc 50 -LD 0,1 -PD 1 -b 0
