DEPRECATION WARNING
This documentation is not using the current rendering mechanism and is probably outdated. The extension maintainer should switch to the new system. Details on how to use the rendering mechanism can be found here.
Screenshots¶
The following screenshots clarify the extension configuration options and provide an example how Nagios® could interpret the data generated by the TYPO3 Nagios® Extension.
Screenshot above: The extension configurations allow you to enable or disable each feature of the TYPO3 instance. The settings control which information should be passed to Nagios®. The Nagios® TYPO3 plugin (the counterpart of the extension) reads this data and reacts according to the configuration (for example: triggers a warning if TYPO3 reports an old version).
Screenshot above: A typical view of the Nagios® server web interface. The summary of the service group “TYPO3” lists all TYPO3 instances and gives system administrators a quick overview that all sites are “OK”, which servers (hosts) they are running on and which TYPO3 version they are using.
Screenshot above: The same Nagios® server web interface – but in this case Nagios® detected an insecure extension (powermail version 1.5.4, see TYPO3 Security Bulletin TYPO3-SA-2010-021) and was configured to generate a critical condition for the appropriate server. Other options would be to configure Nagios® to generate warnings if the TYPO3 version is outdated or the PHP version is a specific one for example.
