Monitoring MongoDB? (mikoomi plugin)

[robnc63]

Ok, think I figured this out.

If you change the mikoomi_mongodb_plugin.sh to the one I just posted you need to go into your zabbix GUI and go to your "Template_MongoDB", filter on Type: "External Check" and change the Key value to: mikoomi_mongodb_plugin.sh["{HOSTNAME}"]

Configuration -> Templates -> "Template_MongoDB" -> Items

Selected "Miscellaneous Data Collector" and edited the "Key" attribute:

Original Key value:

mikoomi-mongodb-plugin.sh[-h {$MONGODB_HOSTNAME} -p {$MONGODB_PORT} -z {$MONGODB_ZABBIX_NAME} -u {$MONGODB_USER} -x {$MONGODB_PASS}]

New Key value:

mikoomi_mongodb_plugin.sh["{HOSTNAME}"]

Then saved settings.

After doing this, the "No data received in 5 minutes" alert never clears.

Is there a way to tell if Zabbix is actually running the script? Should the output of this script appear in the /tmp folder, as is the case when executing it manually? What am I missing?

Got it working (at last!)

The following was found in the log file:

sh: zabbix_sender: command not found

zabbix_sender is called by the mikoomi-mongodb-plugin.php (near the end), and it was just a matter of fixing the script to point to the correct location (for my system--it may be different for someone else):

Changed from:

exec("zabbix_sender -vv -z 127.0.0.1 -i $data_file_name 2>&1", $log_file_data) ;

to:

exec("/usr/local/zabbix-agent/bin/zabbix_sender -vv -z 127.0.0.1 -i $data_file_name 2>&1", $log_file_data) ;

Following this, the "No Data Received in 5 minutes" alert resolved, and all is now monitoring goodness.

Hi guys,

I have amade all the changes as mentioned in this link,but the error no data recieved in last 5 minutes is not going.

I have seen this in the zabbix agent log:

3570:20130715:080933.779 refresh_active_checks('x.x.x.x',10051)
23570:20130715:080933.781 Sending [{
"request":"active checks",
"host":"x.x.x.x"}]
23570:20130715:080933.781 Before read
23570:20130715:080933.787 Got [{
"response":"success",
"data":[]}]
23570:20130715:080933.787 In parse_list_of_checks()

And seems the data file creating there in /tmp folder but its a empty file.

any help will be much appreciated.

Same issues

I have ran the .php script with my account and it works just fine. Creates the .data and .log with data in them. But zabbix? is running the script it creates the file as empty and it never gets any data. I am assuming this is a permissions issue? or something but I am not seeing it. I can run the script manually with zabbix user. Any ideas?
