  • 1.  "Plugin packages are not installed" error while configuring Isilon Monitoring via RESTMON Probe

    Posted Apr 01, 2021 05:18 PM
    Hi,

    We are trying to setup Isilon monitoring using the RESTMON Probe.
    When configuring the Isilon_schema with te correct details and credentials, the following error is shown: "Plugin packages are not installed"
    On the CentOS7 Hub the following probes have been deployed:
    * Robot_update 9.33
    * java_jre 2.05
    * restmon 1.41
    * isilon_monitoring 1.11.1 (created with the isilon_schema.json)

    Not sure what I'm missing here.

    Regards,

    Etienne

    stop the nimsoft robot watcher service
    rename the $\Nimsoft\plugins directory
    start the service
    redeploy robot_update

    From the console delete restmon from the robot, then remove the restmon folder on disk at the robot. 
    Verify $Nimsoft\plugins\plugin_metric was created. 
    Remove the isilon profile from the device. 
    Add the profile back again and try it out, letting mcs handle the deployment of restmon and the isilon probe.

    Hi David,

    Thank you for the action plan.
    Unfortunately the problem still exists after following the provided steps:

    I can confirm that the restmon probe has been (re)deployed automatically.
    Might there be something else wrong?
    Thanks.

    Regards,

    Was going to provide some info to setup logging, however it came into my head, what if, this is compatibility.

    It is showing restmon for RHEL 6 & SUSE 11, but nothing for CentOS. :(

    Hi David,

    Didn't notice that.
    No problem, I'll try to deploy a Windows OS and give it another try.
    Thanks.

    Regards,

    Etienne.
