Manual execution

The plugin execution format is as follows:

./pandora_nginx --urls <NGINX endpoint URLs separated by commas> --user <username> --password <password> --ssl <true|false> --prefix <prefix> --transfer_mode <native|tentacle> --tentacle_ip <tentacle IP> --tentacle_port <tentacle port> --interval <interval> --allow_list <regex> --deny_list <regex> --timeout <seconds> --conf <path to configuration file> --targets_file <path to URLs file>

Examples:

to run in simple mode

./pandora_nginx --urls http://192.168.0.10/nginx_status,http://192.168.0.11/nginx_status --user admin --password 12345 --ssl false --transfer_mode native --tentacle_ip 127.0.0.1 --tentacle_port 41121

to run in advanced mode

./pandora_nginx --conf /etc/pandora/nginx.conf --targets_file /etc/pandora/nginx_targets.conf

The execution will return a JSON output with information about the run, and will generate one XML file per monitored agent (in tentacle mode) which will be sent to the Pandora FMS server using the transfer method indicated in the configuration. In native mode the data is exposed in the monitoring_data field of the JSON output so that it is consumed by the Discovery server.
