I looked through the archive and couldn't find the answer I was looking for. I of course read the TFM and read the FAQ. Which is not to say I am not just deaf/blind/stupid (hey it's Friday). That said. Nagios works great for me for everything except for one detail. It seems to only want to notified based on the hostgroup and not services or even escelations. That is to say if a server is a member of a hostgroup, but I am calling a service to another contactgroup. The only people who get the notifications are the people who belong to the hostgroup definition.... I can't seem to make service contact get anything. Hope I am clear.

I was hoping to save you the compile etc. But, alas, I cannot. My first step would be to download the current CVS tree, build the plugins, and try that. As I had noted, the http plugin has been revised several times, and some possibly relevent code was fixed. > Also, please note that we are running check_http using the SSL option > against many other > servers and there are no problems. > > Could it be the fact that the "problem" server is responding to Nagios > with HTTP v.1.0 as > opposed to 1.1 like all the other servers? I don't like to rule things out. And I won't. But I cannot see how that would impact the plugin. I will look, however.

It most likely will lighten the load on our primary monitoring system (if not replacing it). However, I have a small qustion regarding host dependencies: Suppose I have two hosts, a router and a firewall behind this router. If the router is down, nagios should be aware of the fact that it can't reach the firewall (this is being monitored over the internet, not from inside the network). I made a host dependency like this: define hostdependency{ host_name Host1 dependent_host_name Host2 notification_failure_criteria d } When using this dependency, Nagios doesn't see host2 as a dependent host on host1. The status map also shows host2 directly connected to the Nagios process instead of host1. I'm quite clueless here, any help wouldy (ofcourse) be appreciated.

This one is weird. I am monitoring a cluster of co-located servers from our place of work. We have to go through two firewalls to do this, so I decided to use passive service checks. Most of the time, Nagios is working great -- but every once in a while, (about once or twice a day) we get an error stating this: (Return code of 127 is out of bounds - plugin may be missing). I have seven machines I am monitoring with passive service checks, with an average of about eight processes. The problem does not appear to be plugin-related, as this error does not seem to favor any one machine or service in the cluster. I have each machine send out results on these checks every 5 minutes or so (each one staggered, to help ensure they don't all come in at once). I have freshness_check_interval set to 665 -- a litte over 11 minutes. Now, if checks come in every 5 minutes, and checks do not go stale for 11 minutes, theoretically I should never get this error (unless there is actually a problem). At first, I thought it might be because I was using a beta version of nagios, but when 1.0 came out, I updated it and the problem still occurs. Then I thought it might be the hub the nagios server was attached to, so we bought a new switch. This, of course, did not help either. I decided to log the output from nsca and it says that each check was sent successfully. This makes no sense to me. Prior to switching to Nagios, I used Netsaint with npre and nsca to acheive the same results and never had these problems -- and I had set my freshness checking interval to an even tighter window -- 7 minutes. Can anyone tell me what is going on here? Thank you!

"parents: This directive is used to define a comma-delimited list of short names of the "parent" hosts for this particular host. Parent hosts are typically routers, switches, firewalls, etc. that lie between the monitoring host and a remote hosts. A router, switch, etc. which is closest to the remote host is considered to be that host's "parent". Read the "Determining Status and Reachability of Network Hosts" document located here for more information. If this host is on the same network segment as the host doing the monitoring (without any intermediate routers, etc.) the host is considered to be on the local network and will not have a parent host. Leave this value blank if the host does not have a parent host (i.e. it is on the same segment as the Nagios host). The order in which you specify parent hosts has no effect on how things are monitored."

Can someone send me an example of all necessary config files and say where place them. If it is on mashine with Nagios or on mashine where the passive chechs are made.

Unfortunately, I think the new check_http module ((nagios-plugins 1.3.0-beta2) 1.19 )has a bug in it which prevents the SSL option from working at all: $ ./check_http -w 5 -c 10 www.verisign.com HTTP ok: HTTP/1.1 200 OK - 0.354 second response time |time= 0.354 $ ./check_http -w 5 -c 10 --ssl www.verisign.com Segmentation Fault gdb ./check_http (gdb) run -w 5 -c 10 --ssl www.verisign.com Starting program: /temp/nagios/libexec/./check_http -w 5 -c 10 --ssl www.verisign.com Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. asprintf (ptr=0x0, format=0x17290 "%s") at snprintf.c:836 836 *ptr = NULL; (gdb) backtrace #0 asprintf (ptr=0x0, format=0x17290 "%s") at snprintf.c:836 #1 0x13d80 in connect_SSL () at check_http.c:923 #2 0x13aa0 in check_http () at check_http.c:552 #3 0x1218c in main (argc=168960, argv=0x0) at check_http.c:271 (gdb) Looks like the connect_SSL function is sending a null pointer to asprintf, making it segfault. Since I've verified earlier on that check_http is indeed returning the correct value to Nagios, I don't think the issue here is specifically with the check_http plugin, but rather something with how Nagios deals with this particular host/service. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

To configure I run the command: ./configure --prefix= /usr/local/nagios --with-cgiurl=/nagios/cgi-bin --with-htmurl=/nagios/ --with-nagios-user=nagios --with-nagios-grp=nagios The first line is a warning configure: warning: /usr/local/nagios: invalid host type everything else 'seems' to go ok. However after the various make install* commands nothing seems to have been coppied to the /usr/local/nagios directory. I have done a chmod 777 for the /usr/local/nagios directory, just to see if it would make any difference. No good either. Any thoughts on what could be happening?

I am using png images and they work fine. I think the issue is how often will you be using the status map and can you afford the cpu cycles to generate the image on the fly. If the images appear in correct in your other places where they are called directly from the html there is probably an issue with Nagios generating the status map image and incorporating your images into it. Look in your http error log and see if you get a message about statusmap.cgi exiting pre-maturely. If this is the case you probably have some configuration issues about the order/location of libpng, libjpeg and gd.

This image will be used in the image created by the statusmap CGI. GD2 images can be created from PNG images by using the pngtogd2 utility supplied with Thomas Boutell's gd library. The GD2 images should be created in uncompressed format in order to minimize CPU load when the statusmap CGI is generating the network map image. The image will look best if it is 40x40 pixels in size. You can leave these option blank if you are not using the statusmap CGI. Images for hosts are assumed to be in the logos/ subdirectory in your HTML images directory (i.e. /usr/local/nagios/share/images/logos). Looks like the image *has* to be converted to gd2 format...

Gives these things a try. 1. run the lmstat as defined in your utils.pm file or check_flexlm and see what the output is. 2. It should match the output which I had in some of the comments in the code I submitted. 3. Feel free to send a copy of the license file to me, you can delete everything except the SERVER, DAEMON, and 1 or 2 features. I don't need to know everything you are running if that is a problem. 4. The platform and perl version may be of some help as well. I have perl -version : 5.005_03 built for Sun Solaris.

You are correct. I just didn't look far enough past the comments. It appears I'm also out of sync wrt the version. I had to hack my utils.pm to get the version you have to work. So which version should I use to get with the program? (I can convert the backup Nagios server to the new release and test from there. ) After hacking my utils.pm, I get the output of License Servers running: houuam,houual,houuan" |flexlm:up:3down:0 when I run the script by hand. I assume this is valid. The hack was to add a line: $PATH_TO_LMSTAT = "/usr/local/flexlm/daemons/lmstat" ; after the line $TIMEOUT = 15; > Going over the script reminded me that it doesn't check for vendor daemon > status, just flexlm. Perhaps we can tackle this after 1.3 is released. I agree, flexlm can be running , while the vendor daemons are dead. This has happened. At least at Marathon, we could be more proactive in keeping our software going. ---Cliff ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com From jcarro10 at sprintspectrum.com Mon Feb 3 19:57:06 2003 From: jcarro10 at sprintspectrum.com (Carroll, Jim P [Contractor]) Date: Mon, 3 Feb 2003 12:57:06 -0600 Subject: NRPE vs. check_by_ssh vs. nagios_statd Message-ID: <74D428BDBFD5D04CB54E84499ECA29DB014E1400@PKDWB03C.ad.sprint.com> Unfortunately, I don't have the info you're looking for.

Regards, Marian Carroll, Jim P [Contractor] wrote: A common question, one which burned in my mind when I came to that crossroads, and perhaps one which should be added to the FAQ. I'll throw my $0.02 in, but YMMV, and I'm sure you'll get some variance in opinions. - check_by_ssh -- great for punching through firewalls where port 22 is already open (saves you having to punch more holes); doesn't scale well, because of the crypto computations - NRPE -- it's what I'm using; many aren't thrilled with having to manage multiple nrpe.cfg files across every client; I've managed to make do - nrpep -- not terribly familiar with it; basically a variation on the NRPE theme, I believe, except in Perl - nagios_statd -- for starters, you'd have to install Python on ever client you wish to install this on; I also seem to recall reading a post to the list where someone was having problems expanding on the functionality - check_snmp -- this is something I've been pondering for a while, and would like to try; someone posted very recently that it's quite lightweight; you'll need the SNMP binaries installed on the Nagios host as well as every client; not sure, but I'm guessing that the lion's share of the SNMP effort is peeling back the layers to find exactly what things you can monitor - NSCA -- this is the passive approach, meaning the client will need to contact the server; I pondered this as an option, but nobody could tell me how well it scales, or whether it would suffice as a replacement for the active checks that NRPE gives me In summary, I'm using NRPE, and am considering adding/switching to check_snmp.

It's still not as cheap as NRPE, but especially if you have several services per host on a ton of remote hosts, it'll cut way down on ssh overhead. It also lets you centrally manage the commands that are run on remote hosts, rather than doing it on config files on those hosts as with NRPE; whether that's a plus or a drawback is a matter of taste. http://www.midwinter.com/~koreth/nagios/batch_by_ssh There's extensive documentation (by Nagios plugin standards, anyway) at the top of the script. If you use it you'll want to make sure you've applied the following check_by_ssh buffer overflow patch: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=673863&group_id=29880&atid=397599 -Steve On Mon, Feb 03, 2003 at 09:29:22AM +0100, Marian Zurek wrote: > Hi, > > Thanks for you reply.

I then unpacked the source code and went through the logic for accepting checks and for initiating checks, with particular reference to the control variables. I therefore hope you will forgive if these are FAQs. Platform & version ------------------ Platform: Red Hat 7.3 on Athlon Nagios: 1.0 enable_active_checks -------------------- I tried following the documented procedure in html/docs/distributed.html where it recommends using a variable of this name. I did so and it seemed to have absolutely no effect. It turns out that the source code does not include this variable. There are a number of different variables of the type "stop the thing doing active checks for the purpose of distributed testing" mentioned variously in the source code and/or the documentation, but none of them quite go all the way to the following setup. The distributed architecture I am after --------------------------------------- Server The server should be configured to know about a remote host and optionally be able to check that the host itself is actually up, and to externally check some/all of the network services. It should however be possible to prevent it from trying to check a remote machine where the network topology does not permit this. This would give a false negative. If the remote machine stops submitting results to the server, the server should follow the usual timeouts as if it was performing the checks itself. Client The client has its own configuration .. hopefully differing from the server version of its config by a very few parameters. It can stack up results in the event of a network outage between the client and the server .. sending them through when things come back. This way the stats for the box aren't affected by network outages that don't necessarily affect its actually uptime and would be recorded separately anyway. How have I done --------------- I am quite close, but for two points .. one cosmetic and one show-stopper. Cosmetic: The only way I have found of shutting off active checks from the server is to set the checks_enabled flag in the host description. This is taken as meaning that the services are to be tested by a remote host by some parts of the UI. However other parts see this as the service being disabled and display it as such. Show-stopper: With the above configuration the server quite happily receives and displays service checks from the distributed remote and will show state changes and everything in the case of a service failure. If however something stops the delivery of service checks, the server simply keeps displaying the last state. If the checks had been done from the server and the network dropped, the failure would be flagged. Is there any way of making the active checks stop without stopping the server from changing state to at least "Unknown" if not "Critical". If you got this far .. thanks for reading :) Andrew Meredith BEng CEng MBCS MIEE _______________________________________________________________ The Anvil Organisation Ltd.

There is a very good paper by Mr Brutlag that illustrates the utility of this approach in the triage of _large numbers_ of interface graphs (ISP or ASP or carrier siituation). It's quiet easy to integrate RRD tool with H-W prediction into a plugin (the H-W time series is another RRA). My experience is that it is not as sensitive as heuristics like 'flows should be within this range' but because it is adaptive, it is not deceived by fluctations. (In my case, I have a time series - the output of a process - that doesnot exhibit periodic fluctation, yet it still works Ok). Yours sincerely. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stanley Hopcroft ------------------------------------------------------------------------ '...No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.

It looks to me like you could be using NRPE. You would then call check_load on the remote host (backup_host) using check_nrpe. On the remote host (backup_host) you would have 2 versions of nrpe.cfg. One version would define check_load with args 6,6,6 8,8,8, the other with args 2,2,2 4,4,4. A cronjob would copy nrpe.cfg.low overtop nrpe.cfg at one time of day, and another cronjob would copy nrpe.cfg.high overtop nrpe.cfg. If you're running the nrpe daemon from (x)inetd, you're done, otherwise you'll also need to restart the standalone daemon.

Further input and output in the IPC mechanism (is it named pipe ?) may further reduce the number of characters handed to the CGIs or the notifcation/logging processes and these in turn may have their own limits. However, since it seems to me that Nag uses exclusively the safe forms of buffer and string copying (strncpy etc), you could . Have your plugin substitute all new line characters in its output for spaces or '.' (leaving only a traling \n) and . hand that to Nag for processing (by returning it as the output). This works quite Ok for me. Here's an example :- To sum up, you can't get multi-line, but you can get quite a lot more than one line of 80 chars.

I missed the echo $? in your previous posts, and mistakenly concluded that the plugin was returning a diferent status than its message showed.. This does seem strange. I can't think of any mechanism that could cause this. Maybe stoppong nagios and clearing all saved states might eliminate another possible problem. -- Karl ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com From brendan at dbinformatics.com.au Wed Feb 5 08:39:07 2003 From: brendan at dbinformatics.com.au (Brendan) Date: Wed, 05 Feb 2003 18:39:07 +1100 Subject: basic upgrade advice Message-ID: <3E415A4B.13428.65D5F65@localhost> Could somebody please explain in newbie language how to upgrade from 1.0b6 to 1.0 Many thanks Brendan ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com From gbiondi at tech2.it Wed Feb 5 09:20:08 2003 From: gbiondi at tech2.it (Giorgio Biondi) Date: Wed, 5 Feb 2003 09:20:08 +0100 Subject: I want migrate to Nagios but...

Message-ID: <1044442453.664.84.camel@blindzero> Hi List, I have some Nagios 1.0 installed on a Debian 3 Woody. The machine is some Intel Celeron 700 MHz with 256 MB of RAM. The setup was doing really well for some long time, but now I get some severe problems more or less every five days. Today we had some connection problems to some remote farm. But Nagios didnt send out host-down notifications, it said this in its event log: "Warning: The check of service 'blabla' on host 'blabla' looks like it was orphaned (results never came back). I'm scheduling an immediate check of the service..." Since this first entry Nagios reported this warning with EVERY service check, about 142 times... At this time I tried to get on the web interface and got no connect, the SSH login took very long, what I am not wondering about, because the box had a load of 7.83! I saw that there were about 80 nagios processes in the list. They were not stopped by some /etc/init.d/nagios stop, I had to kill them all. In dmesg I see entries like: --- Feb 5 11:12:14 ozzy kernel: Out of Memory: Killed process 18026 (apache). Feb 5 11:12:20 ozzy kernel: Out of Memory: Killed process 18022 (apache). --- or --- Feb 5 11:21:48 ozzy kernel: request_module[net-pf-10]: waitpid(13304,...) failed, errno 512 Feb 5 11:21:48 ozzy kernel: request_module[net-pf-10]: waitpid(13305,...) failed, errno 512 Feb 5 11:21:48 ozzy kernel: request_module[net-pf-10]: waitpid(13306,...) failed, errno 512 --- I think there might be some bug, because also the remote site is not available Nagios should warn us about it and not confuse the box like this...?!?

To enable sounds: 1) Turn on sound in the NTray 'Config' screen. 2) Make sure that in your NTray directory, there is a .WAV file called 'red.wav', 'yellow.wav', and/or 'green.wav'. These will be played when NTray's status color changes. Sorry about the bug.. I don't usually use sound myself, but I've had a number of complaints about it.

Things went smoothly, but I couldn't get wildcard template object config work. I was trying the sample as shown in http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/templatetricks.html#hostgroup. So basically I have a config file etc/hostgroup_all-ap.cfg which is listed in the main nagios.cfg file. The content of this hostgroup_all-ap.cfg is listed below: ========================= define service{ use generic-service hostgroup_name all-ap service_description AP_Management is_volatile 0 check_period 24x7 max_check_attempts 3 normal_check_interval 3 retry_check_interval 1 contact_groups citops notification_interval 120 notification_period 24x7 notification_options w,u,c,r check_command check_http } define hostgroup{ hostgroup_name all-ap alias All Wireless AP contact_groups citnet members * } define host{ use generic-host host_name 1200-RAF-04-04 alias AP1200 (Raffles level 4, 4th) address 202.161.56.104 } define host{ use generic-host host_name 352e-MM-03-01 alias AP352E (MM level 3, 1st) address 202.161.56.48 } ========================= The nagios was configured as: ./configure \ --with-mail=/bin/mail \ --with-init-dir=/etc/rc.d/init.d \ --with-gd-lib=/usr/lib \ --with-gd-inc=/usr/include \ --with-perlcache Before I type "make all", the summary screen looks something like this: External Data Routines: ------------------------ Status data: Default (text file) Object data: Template-based (text file) Comment data: Default (text file) Downtime data: Default (text file) Retention data: Default (text file) Peformance data: Default (external commands) Extended info data: Template-based (text file) Hope I didn't bore you with all the unnecessary details. Anyway what I intend to achieve is something like this: A. there will be a hostgroup called all-ap, which should contains all wireless AP B. each wireless AP will be added individually, and will be named as 1200-xxxx or 352e-xxxxx depends on its model. No other hosts will be named in this way. C. it would be good if any newly added AP could be automatically included into the all-ap hostgroup as long as their name conforms to the above mentioned convention. D. to certain extent I actually couldn't afford a blind "*" in production environment since we need to monitor more than wireless AP. Unless this "*" only refers to hosts defined in the same file as the hostgroup definition.

Dear Gentlemen, I think there are a number of factors, 1 The maximum buffer space Nag allocates to store the output of a plugin 2 How much of the plugin output it captures (to save in the buffer), obviously <= 1 The value for 1 is given by #define MAX_PLUGINOUTPUT_LENGTH 352 in common/objects.h The value for 2 is found in base/checks.c /* grab the plugin output and clean it */ fgets(plugin_output,sizeof(plugin_output)-1,fp); strip(plugin_output); ie Nag uses fgets to get the smaller of one 'line' of output and the MAX_PLUGINOUTPUT_LENGTH number of characters. Further input and output in the IPC mechanism (is it named pipe ?) may further reduce the number of characters handed to the CGIs or the notifcation/logging processes and these in turn may have their own limits.

Dear Gentlemen, I think there are a number of factors, 1 The maximum buffer space Nag allocates to store the output of a plugin 2 How much of the plugin output it captures (to save in the buffer), obviously <= 1 The value for 1 is given by #define MAX_PLUGINOUTPUT_LENGTH 352 in common/objects.h The value for 2 is found in base/checks.c /* grab the plugin output and clean it */ fgets(plugin_output,sizeof(plugin_output)-1,fp); strip(plugin_output); ie Nag uses fgets to get the smaller of one 'line' of output and the MAX_PLUGINOUTPUT_LENGTH number of characters. Further input and output in the IPC mechanism (is it named pipe ?) may further reduce the number of characters handed to the CGIs or the notifcation/logging processes and these in turn may have their own limits. However, since it seems to me that Nag uses exclusively the safe forms of buffer and string copying (strncpy etc), you could . Have your plugin substitute all new line characters in its output for spaces or '.' (leaving only a traling \n) and . hand that to Nag for processing (by returning it as the output). This works quite Ok for me. Here's an example :- To sum up, you can't get multi-line, but you can get quite a lot more than one line of 80 chars.

My first approach was to use the check_tcp plugin which from my point of view worked fine. But the people looking after MQSeries on these machines came back to me and complained that each time the plugin ran MQSeries reported errors on these systems (two errors per check) because MQSeries detects the incoming connection and wants to receive proper data, but then the connection is closed. Has anyone ever tried to do the same and found a solution? Maybe there is a way using passive checks, or we might have to look into the possibility to write a plugin.

U have check_freshness variable set to 1. The effect of this is that whenever the passive service results does not reach nagios for some time (freshness_threshold ), it considers the result as stale and starts checking actively for that service. If u want that active checks are not executed when passive results are stale, then disable check_freshness variable. Just tell me in case ur problem is solved.

In check_ping plugins im using urlize to urlize it to show the mtr to that host. All works fine at the site where it actively gets checked, but when the results are sent to the central nagios server , the ping results are shown as A href=/nagios/cgi-bin/mtr.cgi?host=134.159.63.125count=50PING WARNING - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 319.07 ms/A Due to the removal of angular brackets from the result, the resul is not urlized at the central site and an ugly string is shown there. I have checked that at the client side (ie nagios which is sending the passive results), the angular brackets are not ommitted, whereas on the NSCA server, when results are received, the angular brackets are ommitted. Is there any version of NSCA server with anyone which doesnt do this and shows he results properly. Thanks Atul -- --------------------------------------- Mindframe Software & Services Pvt. Ltd.

But I think under normal circumstances the box should not run out of memory. Now e.g. Nagios is running for 17 hours and the stats of the box are: ---cut--- 09:57:16 up 63 days, 23:13, 1 user, load average: 0.01, 0.07, 0.03 56 processes: 53 sleeping, 3 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped CPU states: 1.8% user, 4.0% system, 0.0% nice, 94.2% idle Mem: 253916K total, 208776K used, 45140K free, 115400K buffers Swap: 257032K total, 4248K used, 252784K free, 35288K cached ---cut--- This looks pretty fine for me, especially because 200MB of RAM are not really used, 32MB are cached and 115MB buffered...if Nagios or any other app should need more RAM here it should get it... So IMHO there must be some bug if Nagios runs out of (memory-)control in that way after just 5 days running... Ok, I have 478 services on 32 hosts but that should not be sooo much for such a box, shouldnt it?!?

The other thing is the enabled feshness-check. If the distibuted monitor does not send a passive check for the given threshold, an active check on your master will be performed. These checks will be performed, even if active checks are disabled ! To make sure the distributed monitor is still alive, we use the check_dummy plugin. We use two different service definitions: - the distributed monitor does a check_dummy every 5 minutes for example and sends the result (allways OK) to the master - on the master we defined a freshness threshold of 10 minutes and a "check_command" which does no real check. It only sends an email to the admin which tells him that the distributed monitor has not send an "alive" check for the given threshold. - all other checks on the master have freshness_check disabled Hope this helps !

I cant find no libexec in my nagios directory after running the rpm so i cant even find the help file. I'd have to check into the reference in the nagios docs. To see what plugins you have and where, I suggest you read the man page for rpm. rpm -ql nagios-plugins should do the trick. As for plugin documentation, run the plugin of interest with --help as an option. The authoritative docs come internal to each plugin. There is a FAQ and a few other docs, and there will be additional docs (derived from the embedded sources) in the future. But that's it for now. -- Karl ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com From atul at mindsw.com Thu Feb 6 13:47:00 2003 From: atul at mindsw.com (Atul Gosain) Date: Thu, 06 Feb 2003 18:17:00 +0530 Subject: Fwd: Plugin Installation - I have rtfm no help2 In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <3E425944.3090003@mindsw.com> Thanks for such a good response.

Checks for various services running on TCP ports work. UDP service checks are failing. If I manually run './check_tcp -H -p , I get a near immediate response (assuming a service is listening) If I manually run check_udp the same way, it just sits there. It does not give up after the default timeout of 10 seconds. Running strace on the 2 binaries shows that check_udp appears to be hanging prior to the call to "signal (SIGALRM, socket_timeout_alarm_handler)" in the main routine. Any ideas?

Message-ID: <3E4281D2.5090004@fastvibe.com> Greetings, At our organization, we pre-provision users and use nagios to poll the provisioning server and automatically add users to the nagios configuration. The problem with this implementation is that the users may not be active before they have been provisioned. This means that until they login for the first time, alarms will go off unless we manually acknowledge each of the pre-provisioned users. A user may not login for a long period of time after they are provisioned, and thus added to nagios. What I'm wondering is if there is a configuration hook that can be inserted for each user that sets the initial notification state to acknowledged so we don't have to manually acknowledge each user.

Check resource.cfg, and especially the first lines... # Sets $USER1$ to be the path to the plugins $USER1$=/usr/local/nagios/libexec Here is an example of command (in my case, the file is "checkcommands.cfg) -- Notice the $USER1$ # 'check_ssh' command definition define command{ command_name check_ssh command_line $USER1$/check_ssh $HOSTADDRESS$ } Finally, in services.cfg (normally), the syntax for the command is : check_command check_ftp!10!15!20 Don't fear to use the default configurations, everything is pretty well explained.

To date, all I've ever used is the simple command. CAVEAT: The command referenced by check_command is NOT the plugin binary. At least not directly. What you're specifying with check_command is actually a token which needs to be defined in checkcommands.cfg. *This* is where you reference the plugin binary. In many cases (in a brand new install), the names of the tokens are identical to the plugin binaries, which tends to derail Nagios newbies.

I am creating host and service entries in nagios based on information which is in our RADIUS user database: Our radius database gives us two values for each user, username and IP address. It is imported into nagios via a perl script and username becomes host_name and IP address is the same, address for an entry that looks like this for each user in our radius database: define host { use w7 host_name harv2459.w7 alias harv2459 address 216.7.193.244 } define service { use w7 host_name harv2459.w7 service_description PING contact_groups w7.email,w7.pager check_command check-host-alive } > - where are the users logging into?

I am creating host and service entries in nagios based on information which is in our RADIUS user database: Our radius database gives us two values for each user, username and IP address. It is imported into nagios via a perl script and username becomes host_name and IP address is the same, address for an entry that looks like this for each user in our radius database: define host { use w7 host_name harv2459.w7 alias harv2459 address 216.7.193.244 } define service { use w7 host_name harv2459.w7 service_description PING contact_groups w7.email,w7.pager check_command check-host-alive } > - where are the users logging into?

Message-ID: <74D428BDBFD5D04CB54E84499ECA29DB2F254C@PKDWB03C.ad.sprint.com> Alright, a couple of ideas: 1) Instead of immediately publishing the new users into the Nagios hosts.cfg, why not have them dumped into a staging area first, then cron a job to ping these new users, and as they come online, stuff them into hosts.cfg...? The obvious disadvantage is that you have no visibility of these new users until they are actually pingable. 2) Publish them in two phases. The first phase, they either reference the check_dummy plugin, or they reference another home-rolled plugin which returns a warning instead of a critical. Once they're pingable, drop in the proper config.

One of these sample ... I think the key statement is 'the MQSeries client (with developer support)'. MQSeries is a commercial multi-platform product that ships with different libraries including a developer API for each platform. I suspect you need these libraries for the scripts to be of any use; the libraries would have to be installed on the Nag host if you want a local plugin using that script. Obviously this a problem for Nag hosts that have no MQ suppport such as FreeBSD/NetBSD/OpenBSD. If you are a MQ Series site and have the appropriate MQ libraries available and installed on your Nag monitor, then sure, give the script a crack. Otherwise, you may do what my employer does (an AIX/MQ site). A DBA colleague wrote an application using the libraries to send a message to the the channels of interest that the channel then loops back. The application exits after writing a timestamp and an MQ return code (related to whether or not the mesage came back) into an NFS exported file that Nag can read (although NCSA would have been an option had I known of it then). Or use the IBM script on a host fitted with the libraries in a 'plugin' that sends the result to Nag in someway, or have Nag execute the script on that host by SSH. HTH, Yours sincerely.

Make sure you add in the additional arguments to that command otherwise it will not register them all as unknown because it has no thresholds to compare to. Look at the sample services.cfg file that comes with the distribution. The line in your serviced file should look something like the following: check_command check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60% Also, if you do a '/pathtonagios/libexec/check_ping -h' you should get the following explaining what arguments you need with the check command: Usage: check_ping -H -w ,%% -c ,%% [-p packets] [-t timeout] [-L] check_ping (-h | --help) for detailed help check_ping (-V | --version) for version information Options: -H, --hostname=HOST host to ping -w, --warning=THRESHOLD warning threshold pair -c, --critical=THRESHOLD critical threshold pair -p, --packets=INTEGER number of ICMP ECHO packets to send (Default: 5) -t, --timeout=INTEGER optional specified timeout in second (Default: 10) -L, --link Sorry for the long post, but I think this will help you fix your problem.

Service X has a public or near public protocol eg DHCP, SMB, Oracle 2.1 Write a plugin that sends the same packets as are exchanged between the parties in a normal interaction. Return Ok if all the expected packets are received in a timely manner, Critical otherwise. Traditionally what plugin writers do in this case is use a public client like (smbclient or tnsping) that is controlled by (in effect) popen(). However, a better option is to to call the library dfunctions irectly if you have the choice (ie the libraries are readily available). Public libraries that also have bindings to 'scripting' ( the modern name for ultra high level languages) languages like Python, Ruby and Perl are especially good like this because the plugin writer can exploit the power of these languages to simplify development. 3 Service X has no library, and no public on the wire protocol eg Citrix metaframe 3.1 Do what Ed Rollston did for the check_citrix plugin and collect the frames from a real client and have your plugin synthesise and send those frames as if it were the client. There should be more tools around to help with this. However, some protocols still are alien (Citirx ICA for example) and even the plugin writers best friend, ethereal (thank you, thank you ethereal team) is no help whatsoever. What is needed are tools that . analyse packets . synthesise them -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stanley Hopcroft ------------------------------------------------------------------------ '...No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.

Be sure to let us know if it doesn't work. Way back when, the CSS files were designed so colors could easily be changed to accommodate red-green color blindness. If any bit rot has set in, it would be good to know. (I fully expect it to work, but from an accessibility point of view its actually more important that it initially appears.) The nice thing about the CSS solution is that a NOC can keep the standard colors which work well due to stop-light conditioning, but end users can use CSS to override the color for their own displays. -- Karl ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com From andrew at anvil.org Fri Feb 7 02:37:53 2003 From: andrew at anvil.org (Andrew Meredith) Date: Fri, 07 Feb 2003 01:37:53 +0000 Subject: host - a service References: <20030204035141.GA31963@cannonfodder.org> Message-ID: <3E430DF1.6030200@anvil.org> Hi Jason, I have been scouting around that area of the code myself just recently, after trying to do something to yourself. As far as I can tell, there is nothing that will do exactly what you want, but it will get quite close. You will still have the service in the system, but it will be switched off ... the same as if you didn't mention the lack of this service on this particular host and then switched it off through the interface. There are 3 parameter names that seem to have something to do with this function. enable_active_checks -------------------- $ fgrep -rl enable_active_checks . ./html/docs/distributed.html This appears to be something that is either going to be and hasn't yet, or used to be and hasn't been trimmed out of the docs yet .. either that or its a typo :) active_checks_enabled --------------------- This is service template parameter that has support all through the template reading and writing stuff and in the examples and convertcfg program. However .. checks_enabled -------------- ... is what it becomes when an xodtemplate_service structure is used to initialise a service structure using set_service_state_information() in xdata/xrddefault.c:593. (It is also a parameter at the host level where it keeps it's name the whole way through and would seem to be involved in host level checks.) Why have just gone through all this ? .. two reasons. 1 - I would be very grateful if someone who actually has a clue (unlike myself) would please have a look through the above and confirm whether I have got it right or not. The name change caught me right out until I spotted that the set_service_state_information() argument named active_checks_enabled was given the value of a variable called checks_enabled in xdata/xrddefault.c .. which given that checks_enabled is also a parameter in the host object made things a little confusing for a bear of very little brain. 2 - If this is true then (in theory .. I think) you should just be able to explicitly reference the service description by hostname and service name and then insert additional parameters of "active_checks_enabled=0" and "passive_checks_enabled=0" .. I think this should over-ride the value inherited from the hostgroup when that service structure is actually created in memory and render that service inoperative. The downside would be that it still shows up in the UI, but has no effect on anything. This as I say is not really what you are after, but might be a reasonable stop-gap until something tidier can be done in version 2.0 ... how about a service parameter called "vanish" (or for the LinuxHeads "mrproper" ;) that causes that service structure to be deleted. Having said all that, I haven't got a 1.0 test system on which I can try it right now, so it may well turn out that this is flexing the inheritance mechanism a little bit too hard. BTW .. If the developers are watching, I would be quite willing to go through the CVS version and rename the service structure variable from checks_enabled to active_checks_enabled in the code. I know that this would help me understand the logic a little better .. and I suspect that future newcomers might also be a little confused by the sudden change of name.

Has anybody such a plugin ? that you may like to consider the CPAN module FileSys::Smbclient ? This gives you an (tied) interface to a MS shared file that behaves exactly like a normal (ufs) file handle, so you can call stat() on it. I think your plugin is something like .. prelude my $smb = new Filesys::SmbClient(username => "alian", password => "speed", workgroup => "alian", debug => 10); my @tab = $smb->stat("smb://jupiter/doc/tata"); if ($#tab == 0) { print "Erreur in stat:", $!, "\n"; # Outahere after setting return code } else { my $size = $tab[7]; if ( $size <= MIN_THRESHOLD or $size >= MAX_THRESHOLD ) { # outahere } else # Ok print "File Ok.\n" ; exit $ERRORS{OK} ; } Have a look at http://search.cpan.org/author/ALIAN/Filesys-SmbClient-1.4/SmbClient.pm Obviously you can do a lot more with this extremely versatile and superior alternative to smbclient eg - tail a MS file - read/write at offset - slurp a whole MS file into a Perl string or Array - read/write MS directories You need to have a Samba 2.2.x sources, and you need to have the optional client shared library installed (make installclientlib) to be able to install this Perl module. Alternatively, there are RPMs that are sufficient to do all this. If you don't like this, but you have Samba installed, then you could do something like #!/usr/bin/perl $ls = `smbclient //server/share -Uuser%pass -c 'cd $path; ls $file; quit`` ; # interpret the directory listing in the 'usual way' ... this is # the hard bit that FileSys::Smbclient eliminates. > Thanks Horst HTH, Yours sincerely. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stanley Hopcroft ------------------------------------------------------------------------ '...No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.

I have been looking for a mechanism that will allow me to 'reply' to nagios notifications via email with an acknowledgement. Often I am away from the office and I receive notifications on host/service outages on my cell phone. I have used another monitoring utility called "Big Brother" that had this capability. Outside of writing my own handler to do this, does anyone out there know if this is possible? I have scoured the documentation and the mailing lists and newsgroups and haven't seen even a small mention of this. Does this capability exist? You assistance is greatly appreciated.

The apache runs under nobody and if you follow the installation descriped on the "External Command File Permission" you add nobody to the nagiocmd group, and with the chown nagios.nagiocmd you give the rw-rights to the nagiocmd group. The apache can access the nagios/var/rw directory but he can't access the nagios.cmd, which is regenerated by a every restart of nagios, because nagios creates the nagios.cmd like above. 3. I make a chgrp nagios.nagios to the nagios/var/rw directory and added nobody back do the nagios group with usermod -G nagios nobody. 4.

Isn't this insecure, putting the 'nobody' user in the 'nagios' group, effectively giving that user permission to everything that Nagios has permission to? I was under the impression that the whole purpose of creating the new group was to limit the access of the 'nobody' user. What am I missing?

We're now monitoring 127 hosts, 1777 services. And a *lot* of servicedependencies. For starters, I'm using the cfg_dir directive in nagios.cfg. Then for each host out there, I have a file (eg, host fizzgig would have the filename fizzgig.cfg). Within that file exists the host definition and all the service definitions. I created a template file containing the services I wanted to add to all these hosts, but with "XXXXXXXX" instead of any particular hostname. Then with a bit of some shell scripting, using a 'for' loop and 'sed', I was able to massage then append to all the files I was interested in. This definitely cut down on the keystrokes and the 'oops' factor. Not sure if this was what you were asking.... jc > -----Original Message----- > From: Tom DE BLENDE [mailto:tdeblend at gcc.dhl.com] > Sent: Friday, February 07, 2003 9:05 AM > To: Potter G M (Greg) > Cc: Don Schultz; nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] workstations > > > I imagine you don't have a large environment then?

There seems to be a hard-coded limit somewhere in Nagios 1.0, preventing a members definition over about 8,000 characters to execute. The error Nagios spits back is: Error: Could not add object property in file '/usr/local/nagios/etc/hostgroups.cfg' on line 16. I won't flood you with line 16, but a snip of it would look like: members SNW-5153-9781,SNW-6934-8271,SNW-6929-8265,SNW-6928-9622,SNW-6928-8318..... (repeating for another 8,000 characters) A wildcard definition appears to load all of the members properly but unfortunately, I need to have separate hostgroups with about 700 members in each. It's hard to imagine that no one has run into this problem before considering Nagios appears to have been written to scale to this type of environment. Any ideas would be appreciated, whether it's someone pointing me to variable declarations in the source or a quick hack (perhaps you can define a hostgroup twice with the same hostgroup_name/alias?)

Marc -----Original Message----- From: Jason Lancaster [mailto:jason at skynetweb.com] Sent: Fri 2/7/2003 4:00 PM To: nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net Cc: Subject: [Nagios-users] member character limit in hostgroups.cfg I sent this to the devel list... but I'm beginning to think that maybe this list would have been more appropriate: Pardon me if this is common knowledge, but I can't find talk on any lists of a character limit for the member definition in the hostgroups.cfg file. There seems to be a hard-coded limit somewhere in Nagios 1.0, preventing a members definition over about 8,000 characters to execute. The error Nagios spits back is: Error: Could not add object property in file '/usr/local/nagios/etc/hostgroups.cfg' on line 16. I won't flood you with line 16, but a snip of it would look like: members SNW-5153-9781,SNW-6934-8271,SNW-6929-8265,SNW-6928-9622,SNW-6928-8318..... (repeating for another 8,000 characters) A wildcard definition appears to load all of the members properly but unfortunately, I need to have separate hostgroups with about 700 members in each. It's hard to imagine that no one has run into this problem before considering Nagios appears to have been written to scale to this type of environment. Any ideas would be appreciated, whether it's someone pointing me to variable declarations in the source or a quick hack (perhaps you can define a hostgroup twice with the same hostgroup_name/alias?)

Message-ID: <20030208130556.B349@IPAustralia.Gov.AU> Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, I am writing to request your comments on application performance monitoring preferably in an Nagios centric environment. Every one knows what a drag it is to acquit the 'network' of complicity or blame in slug like application response. The state of the art seems to be . L3 stats (RTA, Packet loss ratio etc) are helpful in indicating that the network performance is Ok, but are not conclusive except in the rare cases that network response is really poor. In my experience, with switched LANs and even low speed _uncongested_ WANs, this doesn't happen often. . Commercial products that generate synthetic transactions (Chariot, Vital Suite ?) are able to more accurately indicate application performance but are obviously useless in helping understand why a particuar workstation is getting poor response. This is the approach I use with most of my plugins: have the plugin do what the client does and whine if the server fails to respond in time. . Commercial application instrumentation for products like Oracle, and J2EE encironments are able to report on and account for application response times Similar products may be able to account for client resources and activities. . Commercial RMON2 based network probes (Netscout notably both with their own products and OEM blades in Cat switches) These products are located at nodal points in a network (intersection of flows from clients or servers) and by making some assumptions about the use of TCP flags in application flows, and by _very quickly_ inspecting the contents of every packet they receive, are able to get - network delay - server delay or in other words, account for the transaction processing time as seen by a client as a network component and a server component. Does anyone have any experience of application performance monitoring or of any of these products they are willing to share with the list or privately ? I think Nag would an immensely attractive product - especially with PHBs - if there was some way that it could in this matter.

The problem is, when I start nagios, the eye/HTTP service shows up with the envent handler disabled. I have to enable it with a command at runtime. [1044663511] EXTERNAL COMMAND: ENABLE_SVC_EVENT_HANDLER;eye;HTTP I can see later that it did run: [1044669735] SERVICE ALERT: eye;HTTP;CRITICAL;SOFT;1;Socket timeout after 10 seconds [1044669735] SERVICE EVENT HANDLER: eye;HTTP;CRITICAL;SOFT;1;camera-event [1044669785] SERVICE ALERT: eye;HTTP;OK;SOFT;2;HTTP ok: HTTP/1.0 200 OK - 4 second response time [1044669785] SERVICE EVENT HANDLER: eye;HTTP;OK;SOFT;2;camera-event What a piece of crap that camera is.... Anyway, what is wrong with my config file? I would like the event handler to be enabled at startup. I don't want to have to fool with it at runtime.

I wrote it for the procurve 2524. but, i found it out like this: I extracted the class file off the 'status lamp' in the webgui for the switch. If you dont have the status lamp, it wont work anyhow ;( Then I decompiled the class file into Java and looked up how they extracted the status info from the switch as the class is run on the workstation. I found an URL in the java code that was requested for. So I requested it on my browser and found some numbers which should represent the status. I found that one number was for the actual status (OK,WARNING, CRITICAL, etc) and an other for the reference to the explanation page. So I tested it by disconnecting a cable (warning) and by generating some other errors (like with security). Thats how I found out how to query for the status. The actual link to the status explanation consists of an URL with, as cgi parameter, the error number stated in the status page.

I elected to try WWW::Mechanize and got This far: #!/usr/bin/perl -w # Check Communigate Pro webmail for Nagios use WWW::Mechanize; use HTML::TokeParser; use diagnostics; my $browser = WWW::Mechanize->new(); $browser->get("http://webmail.vel.net/"); $browser->form(1); $browser->field("Username", "test\@vel.net"); $browser->field("Password", "test06"); $browser->click("login"); $browser->follow("here"); $pattern = "INBOX"; $_ = $browser->{content}; if ( /$pattern/ ) { print "INBOX"; exit 0; } else { print "CRITICAL"; exit -1; } I wrote this for the purpose of seeing whether webmail was up or not. It Was easy to monitor for SMTP and POP3. I'd love to figure out SMTP transaction to a POP3 box. Anyways... The above works for the way I have Communigate Pro setup. I know everything is hard coded and I'm not taking any ARGV things. My limited knowledge of Perl is preventing me on how to send Nagios the results of OK or CRITICAL. Been trying to figure it out, but kinda stumped right now. But Perl is an Amazing beast. So few lines of code to do something very useful. So, any ideas are appreciated. richg -----Original Message----- From: Stanley Hopcroft [mailto:Stanley.Hopcroft at IPAustralia.Gov.AU] Sent: Friday, February 07, 2003 6:15 PM To: Richard Gross Cc: nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] website transaction monitor / simple web form Dear Sir, There are a number of approaches for dealing with HTTP transactions/web forms.

The hard bit in this case - and it's a pretty big gotcha - is _you_ have to work out the sequence of URLs sent and the data supplied to each form (some of which is invisible). The CPAN modules may be a better bet but this works well for me. On Fri, Feb 07, 2003 at 11:31:33AM -0800, Richard Gross wrote: > Wondering what can be done to use Nagios to check > a simple webform?

Authentication of Nag/Netsaint web pages _without_ password challeng for MS IE browsers .. Message-ID: <20030210151958.K55236@IPAustralia.Gov.AU> Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, I am writing to let you know about a means of granting protected access to Nag/Netsaint web pages _without_ being challenged for a username and password (This authentication method is called NTLM; MS IE browsers take the 'logged in user name and password hash' from a MS Win wokstation and send it instead of 'basic' authentication). First the caveats 1 Works only with MS IE browsers, Other browsers eg Mozilla for Win, Nav/Moz for Unix challenge the user with the usual realm/username/password dialogue box ie it works exactly as one is used to with a decent browser. 2 Works only for MS Workstations _excepting_ Metaframe sessions with MS Terminal server/Metaframe application servers 3 Workstation must be logged into an MS domain/workgroup (probably including a Samba pdc/bdc but I haven't tried this) 4 Provides no group information This means you can't insist that only logged in users in specific NT groups can access Nag/Netsaint. This is probably only relevant to people that use domain auth in a big way. 5 Requires 5.1 mod_perl 5.2 Authen::Smb } published CPAN modules 5.3 Apache::AuthenNTLM } Note 1 Authen::Smb is a Perl XS that doesn't build cleanly on at least some Unix systems (however, the solution is a trivial patch). 2 AuthenNTLM _almost certainly_ requires a trivial patch to work with existing Nag setups since the user it valiudates is 'Domain\UserName' rather than UserName (as you have probably set in cgi.cfg). The patch again is trivial. Why would you want to mess with yet another 'extend and embrace' MS proprietary protocol ? Because you may have PHBs that only use MS IE browsers and you don't want them whining about yet another password. If on the other hand, you have Linux desktops/Management stations, you can happily ignore this. Yours sincerely. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stanley Hopcroft ------------------------------------------------------------------------ '...No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.

Well my Nagios works really fine since 4 month right now but I have just 2 problems with it: I want that my nagios notificates me via sms and ring me on the phone so I wrote two scripts. One to connect to our sms-gateway and for the phone I changed the /etc/wvdial.conf to ring me. Well... when I exec the two scripts from commandline e.g. ./wvdial it is functionally. But when I write it into misccomands it does not work. Of course I wrote the notification command into the contacts.cfg but I did not recive a sms or a calling from nagios. Here my misccommands.cfg: define command { name notify-by-phone command_name notify-by-phone command_line /usr/bin/wvdial } define command { name host-notify-by-phone command_name host-notify-by-phone command_line /usr/bin/wvdial } define command { name notify-by-sys command_name notify-by-sms command_line /usr/bin/printf "%b" "Nagios Notification Type:$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ Service:$SERVICEDESK$ Host:$ HOSTALIAS$ Adress:$HOSTADDRESS$ State:$SERVICESTATE$ Date:$DATETIME$ Info:$OUTPUT$" > /root/smsmsg } define command { name host-notify-by-sms command_name host-notify-by-sms command_line /usr/bin/printf "%b" "test" > /root/smsmsg } I hope that someboddy can help me!!!!

At the very least the switch is switching packets. If you cannot monitor that without snmp, you should be able to ping its ip address.

In the above, you see the permissions on /usr/local/nagios/var/rw as 'drwxrwS---', which is the result of following the instructions at: http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/commandfile.html I took your advice and changed it to 2770 (drwxrws---, lowercase 's'), and now it works just as it should. The documentation assumes an initial state of g+x on /usr/local/nagios/var/rw, which isn't the case for me. Following the doc to change the permissions to 'g+rw' resulted in 'drwxrwS---', or 2760, instead of the desired 'drwxrws---'. Perhaps the doc could use 'chmod 2770' instead of listing three chmod commands which still didn't give the desired result (for me, anyway).

This perl module will load a nagios configuration given the location of a local nagios.cfg file. Currently, Nagios-Perl will load host configuration files given a cfg_file or a cfg_dir directive. Since this is a brand new package, saving the changes you might make back to the config file isn't implemented yet. I plan on implementing this, so you can load up a set of configuration files, make changes to hosts, hostgroups, services, etc..., and then save them back to the same file they were defined in. I am developing this package with the small to medium site in mind. I have no idea how much memory will be used when you load up thousands of objects (yet!!) Right now, this module is only packaged for use in the Osesm project. Could anyone else here find use for this? If so, I will document it, and package it as a separate file release at sourceforge. An example: #!/usr/bin/perl # Load nagios module use nagios; # Turn on strict use strict; # Create Nagios object my $ncfg = nagios->new(); # Point Nagios object to a nagios config $ncfg->config("/usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg"); # Get a list of host files in the config my @hosts = $ncfg->getHosts(); # List all the hosts in the config foreach my $h (@hosts) { # Get the name of this host. nagios.pm sets a qName object for each record # as the quick name. It does this because you can have host objects and # host object templates. my $name = $h->qName; # if this is a template, the qName will match name if ($name eq $h->name) { print "Host Template: $name\n"; } # if this is a host, the qName will match host_name elsif ($name eq $h->host_name) { print "Host: $name\n"; } } -- Bryan Liles ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com From jcarro10 at sprintspectrum.com Mon Feb 10 18:26:39 2003 From: jcarro10 at sprintspectrum.com (Carroll, Jim P [Contractor]) Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 11:26:39 -0600 Subject: Config Question Message-ID: <74D428BDBFD5D04CB54E84499ECA29DB014E1477@PKDWB03C.ad.sprint.com> To answer your two questions: 1) Yes. When I first set up Nagios, I had also set up the redundant check_ping service. Eventually I decided that that was a bit excessive, and removed it. 2) Yes, that's what's supposed to happen. We recently had a situation where the NT host in question (resident in the DMZ) was pingable, but all the other services got alerted on, because the firewall got gummed up with too many processes. (This required manual intervention on behalf of the firewall admin to clear up.) FWIW, if you want to simplify the number of alerts you receive for anything relating to check_nt, define some servicedependencies. Maybe make them all depend on a simple test such as checking for the version of NSClient that's running.

However, instead of needing the Oracle client installed on your monitoring machine, I use java (JDK1.3.1 and up) and a Jar/Zip file of the Oracle JDBC libraries (classes12.zip for those that know it). It is a small java class that connects, runs a query and exits, and you can wrap it with any number of different shell scripts for running different queries and processing the results. The class takes a connection string, user, password, and query to run. It returns OK if the query executes and returns any resultset, which is printed to the OUTPUT string. It returns a Critical if a SQLException occurs or the resultset of the query is empty. The SQLException message is printed as the OUTPUT if one occurs. Is anyone interested in this code? If so, I will email it out to the list. I was just trying to avoid installing the Oracle client where I didn't need it, and take advantage of an already existing Java installation.

I know everything is hard coded and I'm not taking any ARGV things. My limited knowledge of Perl is preventing me on how to send Nagios the results of OK or CRITICAL. Been trying to figure it out, but kinda stumped right now. But Perl is an Amazing beast. So few lines of code to do something very useful.

The hard bit in this case - and it's a pretty big gotcha - is _you_ have to work out the sequence of URLs sent and the data supplied to each form (some of which is invisible). The CPAN modules may be a better bet but this works well for me. On Fri, Feb 07, 2003 at 11:31:33AM -0800, Richard Gross wrote: > Wondering what can be done to use Nagios to check > a simple webform?

I'm puzzling over why you're bothering with username 'nobody' at all, instead of 'apache' or 'http' or whatever you run your webserver under. What you've effectively done is grant more privs to user 'nobody', which should really be just that, nobody. Let someone login as 'nobody' (which isn't really a realistic scenario, but anyway...), and voila, they have access to your nagios.cmd file, something you probably don't want. Let me take a step backwards. What username are you running Apache under? (I'm making the wild assumption that you're running Apache at all.) Once you have that info, what group(s) does that username belong to? Ideally that username would belong to 'nagiocmd'. For your particular customization, you've added 'nobody' to 'nagiocmd', but the prescribed approach is to have apache belong to 'nagiocmd'. As for the particulars of the indicated link, let me try to follow the documentation 'as is' and see what we get (modified to use 'foo' instead of 'rw', since I already have a 'rw'): $ mkdir /usr/local/nagios/var/foo $ chown nagios.nagiocmd /usr/local/nagios/var/foo $ chmod u+rwx /usr/local/nagios/var/foo $ chmod g+rw /usr/local/nagios/var/foo $ chmod g+s /usr/local/nagios/var/foo $ ls -ld /usr/local/nagios/var/foo drwxrwsr-x 2 nagios nagiocmd 4096 Feb 10 12:23 /usr/local/nagios/var/foo So you are partly right: Yes, the result isn't the same as the more secure mode of 2770. But as near as I can see, this would still work for you. Notice that the group mode is 'rws' and not 'rwS', which is what you had to begin with (which would prevent things from working). If you're satisfied with the security of your host at this point, then don't change anything. Food for thought. jc > -----Original Message----- > From: Michael W.

Message-ID: <74D428BDBFD5D04CB54E84499ECA29DB2F2552@PKDWB03C.ad.sprint.com> Just looking for some 'warm fuzzies' here. In: http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/templatetricks.html under "Service Dependencies", there appears to be a great time-saver. However, I'm concerned that creating this definition will mean that *all* hosts defined in the dependent_host_name declaration would become dependent on *all* hosts defined in the host_name declaration. (I have a similar concern when using a dependent_hostgroup_name/hostgroup_name approach.) Can anyone say with authority and conviction that (using the example given on that page) SERVICE2 on HOST3 is dependent on SERVICE2 on HOST1, and SERVICE2 on HOST4 is dependent on SERVICE2 on HOST2, but that there's no crossover where SERVICE2 on HOST3 becomes dependent on SERVICE2 on HOST2, and likewise with SERVICE2 on HOST4 crossing over to SERVICE2 on HOST1? A 1-to-1 correlation would do quite nicely, so long as there are N hosts defined on each of the dependent_host_name and host_name lines. A 1-to-many, many-to-1, or many-to-many is *not* what I want. In short: I'd like to take advantage of this time-saving feature, but I don't want to end up creating logic where a vast selection of services are dependent on one particular service being up or down.

I've been up since 4:30 this morning, and my brain is half awake right now :) Two observations: 1 There are rpms available on the Nag site 2 All the Nag directories should be relative to the --prefix In my installation, prefix is /usr/local/nagios html " "/share cgi " "/sbin But you don't need that since it's the default. (From your web servers point of view, there are alias and script-alias definitions so that /nagios/ is the same as prefix/share etc Setting up apache is where most people have problems). However, now after reading your letter again, then the remarks above are either wrong or the -url options to configure are poorly named. --with-cgiurl= sets URL for cgi programs (do not use a trailing slash) --with-htmurl= sets URL for public html I would have to try and read configure to work out what they do but one thing is certain: they are not going to configure alias directives in apache, so perhaps they are suffering from bit rot. After running configure with no options, here is the summary *** Configuration summary for nagios 1.0 11-24-2002 ***: General Options: ------------------------- Nagios executable: nagios Nagios user/group: nagios,nagios Command user/group: nagios,nagios Embedded Perl: no Install ${prefix}: /usr/local/nagios Lock file: ${prefix}/var/nagios.lock Init directory: /usr/local/etc/rc.d Web Interface Options: ------------------------ HTML URL: http://localhost/nagios/ CGI URL: http://localhost/nagios/cgi-bin/ Traceroute (used by WAP): /usr/sbin/traceroute External Data Routines: ------------------------ Status data: Default (text file) Object data: Template-based (text file) Comment data: Default (text file) Downtime data: Default (text file) Retention data: Default (text file) Peformance data: Default (external commands) Extended info data: Template-based (text file) Review the options above for accuracy. If they look okay, type 'make all' to compile the main program and CGIs. So, you get the right html and cgi paths (wrt file system _not_ web server) by default. The only options I specify to configure are (in my case) those relating to gd. HTH.

AFAIK, there is no documentation about plugins (for the moment, but it's in the Karl's mind) :-) The only help you can find, is while running the check itself without arguments, or most of the time with "--help" option... somehost:/usr/local/nagios/libexec$ ./check_ftp No arguments found Usage: check_ftp -H host -p port [-w warn_time] [-c crit_time] [-s send] [-e expect] [-W wait] [-t to_sec] [-v] somehost:/usr/local/nagios/libexec$ ./check_ftp --help check_ftp (nagios-plugins 1.3.0-beta2) 1.8 The nagios plugins come with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.

What we do is have a check_ping service called 'PING', where it sends 4 packets that way I can get warnings based on packet loss and not just an up or a down like the host version check-host-alive. We also tighten up the delay times so if there are abnormally long ping times, we get warned as well (possible DoS attack). > So if a service check for host A for check_ping is for 24x7, then I will > get notified 24x7 > However, if the host actually goes down, then I will be notified only > during work hours? > That makes no sense...

Message-ID: <74D428BDBFD5D04CB54E84499ECA29DB2F2554@PKDWB03C.ad.sprint.com> To answer your question first: Yes, as far as I know. To respond to your statement: Yes, that could perhaps spark a philosophical debate. But perhaps I wasn't clear enough. My goal: To be able to create a servicedependency whereby I can merely add a host (in the case of host_name / dependent_host_name) or a hostgroup (in the case of hostgroup_name / dependent_hostgroup_name) such that the trivial case of a service on a host is dependent on another service *on that same host* (and not on any other host). Allow me to attempt to illustrate by example. define servicedependency{ host_name fizzgig,wingnut service_description NRPE status dependent_host_name fizzgig,wingnut dependent_service_description Check swap other dependency directives ... } I want 'Check swap' on fizzgig to be dependent on 'NRPE status', also on fizzgig. Similarly, I want 'Check swap' on wingnut to be dependent on 'NRPE status', also on wingnut. But I do *not* want 'Check swap' on fizzgig to be dependent on 'NRPE status' on wingnut, nor do I want 'Check swap' on wingnut to be dependent on 'NRPE status' on fizzgig. Now that I'm reviewing the Service Dependency links (see URLs below) once again after a long absence, I suspect that multiple hosts for either host_name or dependent_host_name could only refer to template tricks, and not any sort of matrix of dependency. I will proceed with this suspicion.

When run from the command line: ./check_snmp -H rtr-ed01.upstanding.com -o 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.2.1.58.0 -C UPITRO -c 0:85 -w 0:70 I get the following returned: SNMP WARNING - 0 Maybe I'm not all there today and didn't get the help file right, but as I understood it, when specifying the ranges in a MIN:MAX form, that is the range that is "OK". So by my command above, that means anything within 0:85 will not result in a critical state, and anything within 0:70 will not result in a warning state. Thanks for your help!
