SMB monitor on 11.4

Apologize for the delayed response but here is the script. I used Aaron's script as ARO did above and modified it to add the use of the AD domain with a service account specifically set to this monitor. This allows me to test AAA as well as reading a string inside a file to test all the way to shared storage.

I did have to create an smb directory and conf file to fix a problem i was having with access denied messages in 11.4. Not sure if its fixed in later versions: mkdir /root/.smb/ touch /root/.smb/smb.conf

when i created the external monitor i used the following variables:

default settings and tweaked interval

defaults-from external
destination *:*
interval 10
time-until-up 0
timeout 31

monitor script uploaded thru File Management

run /Common/smb-monitor

turn debug off '0' or on '1'

user-defined DEBUG 0

example file thru Samba to SAN storage

user-defined FILE /share/smb.hc

password of AD service account

user-defined PASSWORD mypassword

string inside smb.hc file that monitor looks for (in this case the word 'working')

user-defined SEARCH_STRING working

username of AD service account

user-defined USERNAME jdoe

Domain name of AD domain

user-defined WORKGROUP MYDOMAIN

Below is the domain portion i added into Aaron's script: Check if a variable named WORKGROUP exists from the monitor definition This can be set using a monitor variable WORKGROUP=MYDOMAIN

if [ -n "$WORKGROUP" ] then if [ $DEBUG -eq 1 ]; then logger -p local0.debug "EAV

basename $0

(PID $$): Workgroup: $WORKGROUP"; fi Set the password flag WORKGROUP="-w $WORKGROUP" else if [ $DEBUG -eq 1 ]; then logger -p local0.debug "EAV

basename $0

(PID $$): No workgroup specified"; fi WORKGROUP='' fi

Send the request and check the response. If we have a string to search for, use grep to look for it. Check if a variable named SEARCH_STRING exists from the monitor definition This can be set using a monitor variable SEARCH_STRING=my_string

if [ -n "$SEARCH_STRING" ] then SUCCESS_STATUS=0 if [ $DEBUG -eq 1 ]; then logger -p local0.debug "EAV

basename $0
