Drupal Monitoring

Drupal monitoring using Sensu and drupal monitoring modules:

• https://drupal.org/project/prod_check
• https://drupal.org/project/nagios

Note: Currently only spins up up Sensu dashboard.

Setup

Install Vagrant 1.2+: http://downloads.vagrantup.com/

Run the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/myplanet-experimental/sensu-drupal-vagrant.git
cd sensu-drupal-vagrant
vagrant plugin install bindler --plugin-version=0.1.3
vagrant bindler setup
vagrant plugin bundle

Usage

vagrant up [ drupal | sensu ]

A minimally-configured Drupal site with the Production check & Nagios modules is now available at:

• http://localhost:8080
• username: admin
• password: drupaladmin

You can also access your Sensu dashboard at: http://admin:secret@localhost:8081

You'll note that Sensu is pre-loaded with a check to monitor the Drupal instance.

Extended Testing

You should be able to add your own remote drupal sites by cloning the demo data bag item within data_bags/drupal_sites/demo-local.json. You'll want to rename the file and internal id, as well as point to your remote website. The nagios_id is an identifier that must match the one you've chosen on your remote site while configuring it with the Nagios module. Please read the Nagios module documentation for further details.

Keep in mind that whenever you update a data bag item, you'll need to rerun vagrant provision sensu before your change will take affect.

Note that as a precaution, all data bags in the drupal_sites directory (aside from demo-local.json) will be ignored. You may edit .gitignore to revert this.
