Service checker plugin (servcheck)

Post by macan »

Hi,
I've started troubleshooting a few issues with Webseer plugins. I finally decided to rewrite it a bit. I would like to announce the Service check plugin. The basic idea is the same as in webseer - testing the service and searching the returned data.
Servcheck has a lot of tests:
HTTP and HTTPS - returns webpage
SMTP, SMTPS - only connect to SMTP server and displays EHLO/HELO
POP3, POP3S - try to login and display first unread message
IMAP, IMAPS - try to login and display unread messages in inbox
DNS - try to resolve A record and return answer
LDAP and LDAPS - do searching in LDAP
FTP, FTPS - try to login and return directory listing
TFTP - try to download specific file
SCP - try to login and download specific file
SMB, SMBS - try to login and download specific file

I added better logging, response time graphs, certificate expiry check notification, ...

TheWitness added multi poller code, but it isn't tested yet.

It is for Cacti 1.2.24+, you need install cURL.

Please read README.md.

You can download it from github https://github.com/Cacti/plugin_servcheck

If you want help, please test and report bugs, new features on github https://github.com/Cacti/plugin_servcheck/issues
Let the Cacti grow!
