How to check in the CLI that the configuration is OK and what are the main options for?β
Once the plugin is installed, log into your Centreon Poller CLI using the centreon-engine user account and test the Plugin by running the following command:
/usr/lib/centreon/plugins//centreon_hddtemp.pl \
--plugin=apps::hddtemp::plugin \
--mode=temperatures \
--custommode=tcp \
--hostname='10.0.0.1' \
--port=7634 \
--filter-name='' \
--unknown-status='' \
--warning-status='' \
--critical-status='%{status} !~ /ok/i' \
--warning-temperature='30' \
--critical-temperature='50' \
--verbose \
--use-new-perfdata
The expected command output is shown below:
OK: Drive '/dev/sda' temperature: 24 C status: ok | '/dev/sda#drive.temperature.celsius'=24C;0:30;0:50;;
This command would trigger a WARNING alarm if the disk's temperature was reported as over
30Β° (---warning-temperature='30'
).
A CRITICAL alarm would be triggered if the temperature was reported as over 50Β° or the status
wasn't equal to 'ok' (--critical-temperature='50' --critical-status='%{status} !~ /ok/i'
).
All available options for a given mode can be displayed by adding the
--help
parameter to the command:
/usr/lib/centreon/plugins//centreon_hddtemp.pl \
--plugin=apps::hddtemp::plugin \
--mode=temperatures \
--help
All available options for a given mode can be displayed by adding the
--list-mode
parameter to the command:
/usr/lib/centreon/plugins//centreon_hddtemp.pl \
--plugin=apps::hddtemp::plugin \
--list-mode
