Nagios Plugin for Overland Storage

Icinga2 is a great Network & Systems monitoring tool forked from Nagios. It's very flexible and very easy to understand and use. I have worked with many different Network and Systems monitoring tools throughout my career, Solarwinds, SCOM, WhatsUP Gold, ManageEngine, SpiceWorks, Nagios, etc. just to name a few. But this one beats them all. 

If you can't find a plugin (or check as they call it in Nagios world), you can write your own and that's what I did. Go check it out, it's on github, 

https://github.com/computingbee/check_overlandstorage

This lets you monitor Disk, RAID status, and NIC failures on your Overland Storage arrays.

check_nwc_health icinga2 service config script

This bash script lets you quickly generate configs for you switch for use with icinga2 monitoring command check_nwc_health as described here, https://gist.github.com/lazyfrosch/005c8becab82c712681c. It assumes you have already configured and installed check_nwc_health under /usr/bin/nagios/plugins/.

It's helpful if you have 100s of interfaces on your switches in MDFs or IDFs.
