Overview ¶
Nagios plugin used to monitor host/datastore/vm pairings.
PURPOSE ¶
This is a functional plugin responsible for verifying that each VM is housed on a datastore (best) intended for the host associated with the VM.
By default, the evaluation is limited to powered on VMs, but this can be toggled to also include powered off VMs.
The association between datastores and hosts is determined by a user-provided Custom Attribute. Flags for this plugin allow specifying separate Custom Attribute names for hosts and datastores along with optional separate prefixes for the provided Custom Attributes.
The output for this plugin is designed to provide the one-line summary needed by Nagios for quick identification of a problem while providing longer, more detailed information for use in email and Teams notifications (https://github.com/atc0005/send2teams).
