NSClient++ is currently the leading NPRE Client / Agent for Microsoft Windows. There are two main. Nagios WSC (Web Service Checker) is a combination of NAGIOS plug-in and.NET web service to enable querying of multiple windows machines via WMI - all nagios queries are sent to one windows machine without having to install clients on all the other window.

This article describes how to monitor Windows machines “private” services such as CPU load, Disk usage, Memory usage,Services, etc. For this, we required to install an NSClient++ addon on the Windows machine. The addon acts a proxy between the Windows machine and Nagios and monitors actual services by communicating with the check_nt plugin. The check_nt plugin already installed on the Nagios Monitoring Server, if you followed our Nagios installation guide.

We assume that you’ve already installed and configured Nagios server according to our following guides.

To monitor Windows Machines you will need to follow several steps and they are:

  1. Install NSClient++ addon on the Windows Machine.
  2. Configure Nagios Server for monitoring Windows Machine.
  3. Add new host and service definitions for Windows machine monitoring.
  4. Restart the Nagios Service.

To make this guide simple and easier, a few of configuration already done for you in the Nagios installation.

  1. A check_nt command definition already added to the command.cfg file. This definition command is used by check_nt plugin to monitor Windows services.
  2. A windows-server host template already created in the templates.cfg file. This template allows you to add new Windows host definitions.

The above two files “command.cfg” and “templates.cfg” files can be found at /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/ directory. You can modify and add your own definitions that suits your requirement. But, I’d recommend you to follow the instructions described in this article and you will be successfully monitoring your windows host in less than 20 minutes.
