IBM Websphere MQ Plugin

Project Notes

Forgive the documentation, if you have any questions email me (see readme.txt for address). Keep in mind I am not an MQ expert. I wrote this to meet our MQ team's requirements. usage: -C file, --config= /path/to/config_file -H nagioshost, --host= nagios server -s service, --service= passive service name -f function, --function= Functions: qmmon queue manager status qdmon queue depth chlmon channel status portmon tcp port connection status portcon tcp port connection counter chlcount channel count wqmon watch queue status mamon queue message age brkmon runmqbrk process status cmdmon amqpcsea proccess status fdcmon fdc log file monitor refmon refused exit log monitor -C and one(1) function required example: check_mq -H nagios.server -C /path/to/example.conf -f qdepth -s servicename Many of the checks send the results back to the nagios server via send_nsca. Each check may evaluate multiple results, and we needed each error returned (if we are monitoring 100 queues we want to see the depth of all 100). The check_mq script calls the following plugins/scripts: nagios-plugins, check_procs: http://nagios.org/downloads send_nsca: http://nagios.org/downloads nsca_wrapper: http://www.nagiosexchange.org/cgi-bin/page.cgi?g=Detailed%2F2529.html;d=1 (included) check-logfiles: http://www.consol.de/opensource/nagios/check-logfiles I've included the sample configs for check_logfiles. check_mq requires a config file. I've included an exmaple. Couple of bug fixes, mainly an issue in the 'watch queue' monitor.
