This check monitors the reflock state of Meinberg LANTIME clocks supporting the MBG-SNMP-MIB::mbgLantime (1.3.6.1.4.1.5597.3.1) MIB. The check has been developed with a GPS170 M3x lantime V5.30k.

The check handles the reported state of the refclock, the GPS signal and the number of satellites connected to.

The check raises a CRITICAL when the refclock is in a bad state (notavailable, antennaFaulty or antennaShortcircuit) and a WARNING state when the refclock is in one of the states trackingSearching, warmBoot or coldBoot. The GPS state raises a CRITICAL state when not available or not synchronized is reported by the device. It also handles a warning/critical threshold for the number of good satellites.

Check parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
good_warn	int	This is a lower threshold. When the number of good satellites drops below this value a WARNING state is raised. The default is set to 3. The threshold can be disabled by setting to None.
good_crit	int	This is a lower threshold. When the number of good satellites drops below this value a CRITICAL state is raised. The default is set to 3. The threshold can be disabled by setting to None.

Performance data

None.
