I thought I'd post this for people reference. I've configured opsview (Nagios) to monitor my current sessions & graph it so I can match performance & usage.

On the Freeswitch server install the opsview-agent & set service to auto start

Create check_freeswitch_sessions.sh in /usr/local/nagios/libexec & chkmod +x the script

--------------------------------------------------------

#!/bin/bash

set fsStatus=" "

/usr/local/freeswitch/bin/fs_cli -x "show calls count" > /tmp/fsStatus

if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then

echo "Critical: Freeswitch not responding!"

rm /tmp/fsStatus

exit -1

fsCalls=`grep "total."</tmp/fsStatus`

#Strip unwanted chars from the channels responses to get pure ints.

fsCalls=${fsCalls/ total./}

# Build a message up

message="Active Sessions: $fsCalls"

echo $message

rm /tmp/fsStatus

#exit $fsCalls

exit 0

--------------------------------------------------------

The add the following to /usr/local/nagios/nrpe.cfg

--------------------------------------------------------

command[check_freeswitch_sessions]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_freeswitch_Sessions.sh

--------------------------------------------------------

On Opsview server use check_nrpe service check to remotely run the check_freeswitch_sessions service check.

Then on your opsview server

edit /usr/local/nagios/etc/map and add the following

--------------------------------------------------------

# Service type: Freeswitch Sessions

# ouput:Active Sessions: 0

/output:Active.*?(\d+)/

and push @s, [ "session",

[ "sessions", GAUGE, $1 ] ];
