FreeNAS Naemon/Icinga/Nagios plugin.


Tested with: Naemon 1.0.5, 1.0.6; Ruby 2.3.0, 2.3.3; FreeNAS 9.10.2


Requirements


Some checks are executed via SSH (see below). For this the net-ssh gem is necessary.


gem install net-ssh


Usage

    zpool_usage             Checks zpool usage in percentage
  ZFS Dataset:
    datasets_usage          Checks used space of all datasets in megabytes. Exclude and include like: "-x ds1,ds2" or "-i ds1,ds2"
    dataset_quota           Checks dataset quota usage in percentage
  ARC Cache:
    arc_cache_miss_ratio    Checks ARC miss ratio

Modes


API


Following checks are performed via the FreeNAS API (v1). Only https and user root is possible.


Alerts


Check outstanding alerts.


./check_freenas.rb -s freenas.example.com -u root -p  [-k] -m alerts
Warning - smartd is not running


Updates


Notifies of available updates.


./check_freenas.rb -s freenas.example.com -u root -p  [-k] -m updates
Warning - There are pending updates. Go to System > Update to apply pending updates


Datasets usage


Check used space in MB of all datasets with perfdata.
Use include/exclude option to limit output.


./check_freenas.rb -s freenas.example.com -u root -p  [-k] -m datasets_usage -z tank -i data,home -w 1176000 -c 1185555
Warning - Dataset data used 1176133MB | home=910786MB;1176000;1185555 data=1176133MB;1176000;1185555


Zpool usage


Checks Zpool usage in percentage with perfdata.


./check_freenas.rb -s freenas.example.com -u root -p  [-k] -m zpool_usage -w 30 -c 40 -z tank
OK - tank: usage 60% | tank=60%;70;80


SSH


Following checks are performed through SSH via net-ssh to the FreeNAS host.
SSH connection is initiated from the host who executes the plugin.


Dataset quota


Check used space against refquota value. Output will be in percentage (float) with perfdata.


./check_freenas.rb -s freenas.example.com -u  -p  -m dataset_quota_usage -w 70 -c 80 -d 'tank/data
Critical - tank/data: usage 85.98% | tank/data=85.98%;30;40


ARC Cache


Checks various kstat values. Output will be in percentage (float) with perfdata.


Miss ratio


./check_freenas.rb -s freenas.example.com -u  -p  -m arc_cache_miss_ratio -w 60 -c 70
Critical - ARC cache miss ratio: 70.72% | arc_cache_miss_ratio=70.72%;60;70


Metadata usage


./check_freenas.rb -s freenas.example.com -u  -p  -m arc_cache_meta_usage -w 60 -c 70
OK - ARC cache metadata usage: 19.61% | arc_cache_meta_usage=19.61%;60;70


MRU ghost hits


./check_freenas.rb -s freenas.example.com -u  -p  -m arc_cache_mru_ghost -w 10 -c 15
OK - ARC cache mru ghost hits: 0.02% | arc_cache_mru_ghost=0.02%;10;15


MFU ghost hits

OK - ARC cache mfu ghost hits: 2.46% | arc_cache_mfu_ghost=2.46%;10;15


IO requests pending


Checks pending io in queue via gstat from all physical disks that are at least 0.1% busy.


./check_freenas.rb -s freenas.example.com -u  -p  -m io_requests_pending -w 5 -c 10
OK - ada0: 0, da0: 0, da18: 0, da22: 0, da24: 0, da25: 0, da27: 1, da28: 0, da30: 0, da32: 0, da33: 0 | ada0=0;5;10 da0=0;5;10 da18=0;5;10 da22=0;5;10 da24=0;5;10 da25=0;5;10 da27=1;5;10 da28=0;5;10 da30=0;5;10 da32=0;5;10 da33=0;5;10


Disk busy


Checks disk busy value via gstat from all physical disks that are at least 0.1% busy.


./check_freenas.rb -s freenas.example.com -u  -p  -m disk_busy -w 40 -c 50
OK - ada0: 0.3%, da0: 0.3%, da21: 1.6%, da22: 0.6%, da25: 1.7%, da26: 3.1%, da28: 1.3%, da30: 1.3%, da31: 0.5%, da33: 1.0% | ada0=0.3%;40;50 da0=0.3%;40;50 da21=1.6%;40;50 da22=0.6%;40;50 da25=1.7%;40;50 da26=3.1%;40;50 da28=1.3%;40;50 da30=1.3%;40;50 da31=0.5%;40;50 da33=1.0%;40;50
