A quick note with the python scipt I made to parse the Solr stats page and provide cache usage to Nagios.

It also return the number of documents indexed in SolR but without any check on it.

use -h option to get some help.

Copy this to your script folder of nagios and create a check like :
 

  1. define command{
  2.         command_name                    check_solr_cache
  3.         command_line                    $USER1$/check_solr_cache.py -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p $ARG1$ -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$ -P $ARG4$
  4.         ;command_example                        !8080!30!10!/solr!
  5.         ;$ARG1$                         port – 8080
  6.         ;$ARG2$                         warning % – 30
  7.         ;$ARG3$                         critical % – 10
  8.         ;$ARG4$                         path to reach solr admin
  9. }

If your are using a clustered solR, change the path to the admin using the -P option. The latest solR for Typo3, for example, is installed under /solr/core_fr for French language.

It seems the script hereunder have some parts changed : ‘ ‘ ‘ are replaced by <<
Check that when you copy…

Again, this is a quick and dirty. No check is done on the stats URL response…
