14.3.5 Gathering and displaying system environment data
HP Insight Control for Linux provides plug-ins that monitor the environment data on each
managed system such as temperature and fan speed, which can be indicators of possible system
failure.
To display environment data, select the Service Problems menu item in the left frame of the
Nagios main window to open the Service Status for All Hosts window.
You can also use the shownode metrics sensors command to display environmental data.
See
Section 16.2.4.1 (page 187) for more information.
14.4 Services monitored by Nagios
Services, also referred to as plug-ins, typically gather information for many managed systems
at a time and apply the information to Nagios through the Nagios FIFO (passive checks) on a
managed system basis.
