how to monitor Xerox Phaser 7400DN printer with icinga

Posted on by

With this useful plugin you can monitor easily your network printer.Download and move it to directory with the other plugins.In my case the directory is /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/.Make sure the snmp is configured on the printer side.Now, lets’ test the plugin root@icinga:/usr/lib/nagios/plugins# ./check_snmp_printer -H 192.168.0.75 -x "MODEL"
"Xerox Phaser 7400DN;PS4.2.0,Net25.72.10.07,Eng0.11.2,OS6.26", Serial # XXXXXXXXX
Icinga-Printer
Now, we have to define host, check_command and services for our new object.
root@icinga:/usr/local/icinga/etc# vim objects/Default_collector/hosts.cfg
define host {
host_name Printer
address 192.168.0.75
max_check_attempts 1
check_interval 1
retry_interval 1
notification_interval 1
notification_options d,n
check_command check-host-alive
check_period 24x7
notification_period 24x7
contact_groups +admins
}

root@icinga:/usr/local/icinga/etc# vim objects/global/checkcommands.cfg

define command{
command_name check_consumables
command_line $USER1$/check_snmp_printer -H $ARG1$ -C public -x $ARG2$ -w 30 -c 15
}

define command{
command_name check_paper
command_line $USER1$/check_snmp_printer -H $ARG1$ -C public -x $ARG2$
}
