Hey All

I am trying to configure the percona-nagios-plugins as i would like to monitor some RDS Instnaces that i have but i am running into issues

i have followed the documentation and i am getting a little frustrated as i keep getting errors or nothing gets returned

For example if i run ./pmp-check-aws-rds.py -l it returns “List of All DB Instnaces ” and if i run ./pmp-check-aws-rds.py -i “Instance-name” -p it returns No DB instance “Instance-name” found on your AWS account.

i have got the correct aws keys in the /etc/boto.cfg file and python-boto is installed, can someone help please

Most likely, some permissions does not allow to access RDS.

You can test this way:

[root@centos6 ~]# python
Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Jul 10 2013, 22:48:45)
[GCC 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-3)] on linux2
Type “help”, “copyright”, “credits” or “license” for more information.

import boto
boto.connect_rds()
RDSConnection:rds.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
boto.connect_rds().get_all_dbinstances()

But I really don’t have any RDS under my account :slight_smile:
