Meinberg LANTIME Devices: GPS Refclock State (NG MIB)

Distribution Official part of Checkmk
License GPLv2
Supported Agents SNMP
This check monitors the refclock state of Meinberg LANTIME clocks supporting the new MBG-LANTIME-NG-MIB. It is only applied to GPS refclocks. Other refclocks have their own subcheck.

The check handles the reported state of the refclock and provides additional information about its state, like the number of satellites.

When the refclock state is "not available" CRIT is raised and a WARN state is issued if the refclock state is "not synchronized". If the number of good satellites drops below 3 and the device substate indicates that a satellite connection is necessary, a CRIT state is raised. If the substate indicates that no satellite connection is necessary no information about satellites is shown. Substates that require a satellite connection are "GPS sync", "GPS tracking", "GPS antenna disconnected", "GPS warm boot", "GPS cold boot", "GPS antenna short circuit" and "MRS GPS sync".
