[Check_mk (english)] Ping time

Archive checkmk-en

Hi,

I have a little problem. My boss wants to see the avg. ping time in Nagvis/Multisite.

Sounds not really spectacular, but:

if and if64 (+ if.include) don’t have it, so i need to code it myself

the easy way in python would include subprocess and fping as external tool (not really efficient)

the harder way would be working with timedelta (or something similar) and sockets (never worked with it before)

there is a pyping lib, but it doesn’t look good to me, so i would rather not install it

And now the big question:

What would be the least painfull way to accomplish this goal? Some ICMP lib?

I would rather not build stuff into the if checks, so the idea is to write a new check which is only able to return the avg. ping time and add it to nagvis as a additional service.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Looks like the standard host check (ping) is already collecting the
data: (rta)

rta=7.988ms;2000.000;3000.000;0; pl=0%;80;100;; rtmax=9.730ms;;;; rtmin=5.992ms;;;;
