Hello,
Does anybody know of any OpenVZ templates for the popular monitoring softwares such as Nagios and Observium?
Thanks

I dont think there is any templates out there but Observium is very easy to install, like nagios is as well with tutorials all over.

@Patrick - Ubuntu one is shorter :P I'll give it a go.
I didn't run into any problems when installing observium on Ubuntu - it should be relatively easy to set up. Let me know if you run into anything!
Hmm that is a good idea. I will make some
Fair warning: you create and provide third party application templates to customers, you have to maintain them.
please do
We're getting that at the moment, tried all authentication (v1/v2c, etc).
@dominicl just use v2c it is easier. You just connect using the community
I tried v2c as well but gave a similar error like that.
Tried for 2 different hosts.
Is snmp started and iptables not blocking the port?
IPTables isn't operational.
I must be doing something wrong. This is what I've got in /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf:
And the command I'm running on the monitoring VPS is:
./addhost.php oh1.premiumvm.com <communityhere!!> v2c tcp
There's a pretty good list of open source management software on GitHub, here's my fork. Speaking of which, why fuss over making new templates - in less than 10 seconds of Google-fu I found dozens of Observium packages for Puppet, Chef, Ansible and SaltStack.
As above, managed to install it, just getting those errors with snmp that I can't get past
Hmm... why a template because you'd have to configure it anyway, right?
Noobs be trippin
