Functions of nagios

Functions of nagiosThere are several important ones. I will list them here!

1. Monitor network services (SMTP, POP3, HTTP, NNTP, PING, etc );

2. Monitor host resources (processor load, disk utilization, etc );

3. Simple plug-in design allows users to easily expand their service detection methods;

4. Parallel service check mechanism;

5. Have the ability to define the network hierarchy, and use the "parent" host definition to express the relationship between network hosts. This relationship can be used to discover and clarify host downtime or inaccessibility;

6. When a service or host problem occurs or is resolved, the alarm is sent to the contact (via EMail, SMS, or user-defined method );

7. You can define event handles to locate more problems when host or service events occur;

8. Automatic Log rollback;

9. Support and implement redundancy monitoring on hosts;

10. An optional WEB interface is used to view the current network status, notification and fault history, and log files;

The running condition required by Nagios is that the machine must be able to run Linux (or Unix variants) and have a C language compiler. You must correctly configure the TCP/IP protocol stack so that most service detection can be performed through the network.
