Summary: Review Request: pnp - Nagios performance data analysis tool
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=442342
------- Additional Comments From xavier(a)bachelot.org 2008-05-24 06:00 EST -------
- The %name "pnp4nagios" is the official name of the
Sourceforge project and may
be clearer (obviously has nothing to do with plug-and-play). Additionally, it
matches OpenSUSE's package name, which is probably helpful where that abides by
Fedora's naming conventions.
Not sure why I used pnp rather than pnp4nagios. Good point about Suse, I'll look
at what other distros do.
- /usr/libexec/pnp is a very logical place for the
process-perfdata.pl script in
FHS terms, but in keeping with existing convention and filesystem layout it may
make more sense to drop it in %{_libdir}/nagios/plugins.
This is not a nagios plugin. It doesn't provide any test and as you noted, it
follows better FHS to use /usr/libexec/pnp.
- The package is creating a separate %{_sysconfdir}/%{name} directory
for
configs to keep it separate from %{_sysconfdir}/nagios, but is dropping web
files inside %{_datadir}/nagios/html, which seems inconsistent/incorrect to me;
it might be a better idea to give it a separate data directory and distribute an
httpd conf.d file.
I initially packaged the web files in a separate directory, but it forces to
authenticate 2 times, once for nagios and once for pnp. Beside that the pnp site
recommend to install in a nagios' subdir.
However, a separate sysconfdir is cleaner.
