.SH "REQUIREMENTS"
.IX Header "REQUIREMENTS"
This plugin is written on Python and utilizes the module \f(CW\*(C`boto\*(C'\fR (Python interface
to Amazon Web Services) to get various \s-1RDS\s0 metrics from CloudWatch and compare
them against the thresholds.
.PP
* Install the package: \f(CW\*(C`yum install python\-boto\*(C'\fR or \f(CW\*(C`apt\-get install python\-boto\*(C'\fR
* Create a config /etc/boto.cfg or ~nagios/.boto with your \s-1AWS\s0 \s-1API\s0 credentials.
  See http://code.google.com/p/boto/wiki/BotoConfig
.PP
This plugin that is supposed to be run by Nagios, i.e. under ``nagios`` user,
should have permissions to read the config /etc/boto.cfg or ~nagios/.boto.
.PP
Example:
.PP
.Vb 4
\&  [root@centos6 ~]# cat /etc/boto.cfg
\&  [Credentials]
\&  aws_access_key_id = THISISATESTKEY
\&  aws_secret_access_key = thisisatestawssecretaccesskey
.Ve
.PP
If you do not use this config with other tools such as our Cacti script,
you can secure this file the following way:
.PP
.Vb 2
\&  [root@centos6 ~]# chown nagios /etc/boto.cfg
\&  [root@centos6 ~]# chmod 600 /etc/boto.cfg
.Ve
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
The plugin provides 4 checks and some options to list and print \s-1RDS\s0 details:
.PP
* \s-1RDS\s0 Status
* \s-1RDS\s0 Load Average
* \s-1RDS\s0 Free Storage
* \s-1RDS\s0 Free Memory
.PP
To get the list of all \s-1RDS\s0 instances under \s-1AWS\s0 account:
.PP
.Vb 1
\&  # ./aws\-rds\-nagios\-check.py \-l
.Ve
.PP
To get the detailed status of \s-1RDS\s0 instance identified as \f(CW\*(C`blackbox\*(C'\fR:
.PP
.Vb 1
\&  # ./aws\-rds\-nagios\-check.py \-i blackbox \-p
.Ve
.PP
Nagios check for the overall status. Useful if you want to set the rest
of the checks dependent from this one:
.PP
.Vb 2
\&  # ./aws\-rds\-nagios\-check.py \-i blackbox \-m status
\&  OK mysql 5.1.63. Status: available
.Ve
.PP
Nagios check for \s-1CPU\s0 utilization, specify thresholds as percentage of
1\-min., 5\-min., 15\-min. average accordingly:
.PP
.Vb 2
\&  # ./aws\-rds\-nagios\-check.py \-i blackbox \-m load \-w 90,85,80 \-c 98,95,90
\&  OK Load average: 18.36%, 18.51%, 15.95% | load1=18.36;90.0;98.0;0;100 load5=18.51;85.0;95.0;0;100 load15=15.95;80.0;90.0;0;100
.Ve
.PP
Nagios check for the free memory, specify thresholds as percentage:
.PP
.Vb 4
\&  # ./aws\-rds\-nagios\-check.py \-i blackbox \-m memory \-w 5 \-c 2
\&  OK Free memory: 5.90 GB (9%) of 68 GB | free_memory=8.68;5.0;2.0;0;100
\&  # ./aws\-rds\-nagios\-check.py \-i blackbox \-m memory \-u GB \-w 4 \-c 2
\&  OK Free memory: 5.90 GB (9%) of 68 GB | free_memory=5.9;4.0;2.0;0;68
.Ve
.PP
Nagios check for the free storage space, specify thresholds as percentage or \s-1GB:\s0
.PP
.Vb 4
\&  # ./aws\-rds\-nagios\-check.py \-i blackbox \-m storage \-w 10 \-c 5
\&  OK Free storage: 162.55 GB (33%) of 500.0 GB | free_storage=32.51;10.0;5.0;0;100
\&  # ./aws\-rds\-nagios\-check.py \-i blackbox \-m storage \-u GB \-w 10 \-c 5
