Return salt data to Nagios
The following fields can be set in the minion conf file:
nagios.url (required)
nagios.token (required)
nagios.service (optional)
nagios.check_type (optional)
Alternative configuration values can be used by prefacing the configuration. Any values not found in the alternative configuration will be pulled from the default location:
nagios.url
nagios.token
nagios.service
Nagios settings may also be configured as:
nagios:
url: http://localhost/nrdp
token: r4nd0mt0k3n
service: service-check
alternative.nagios:
url: http://localhost/nrdp
token: r4nd0mt0k3n
service: another-service-check
To use the Nagios returner, append '--return nagios' to the salt command. ex:
.. code-block:: bash
salt '*' test.ping --return nagios
To use the alternative configuration, append '--return_config alternative' to the salt command. ex:
salt '*' test.ping --return nagios --return_config alternative
salt.returners.nagios_return.
