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.

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!

Hi folks, i am searching for a way to export the view of " Service Status Details For All Hosts " from the Monitoring Menue: Serive Detail to a static html page on our Webserver. Our Nagios server resides at our office an the webserver is located in a Colocation some miles away.

The most likely (nay - is) culprit is that the snmpcmds are loading the MIBs ad are having some parsing issues. To eliminate the possiblility of MIB parsing issues, and specially since you are using numeric OIDs is to add a -m "" option to prevent loading the MIB files. The command will run much faster and any error on stderr will be a much more substantial error. -- -sg ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com From whiatt at upstanding.com Tue Feb 11 05:06:47 2003 From: whiatt at upstanding.com (Hiatt, William) Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 20:06:47 -0800 Subject: check_snmp errors on CPU Message-ID: <71520D1F83A0C6408D99155D4CCAE0AA2673@exch-be-01.upstanding.com> Now I get the following: [whiatt at watchdog libexec]$ ./check_snmp -H host -o 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.2.1.58.0 -C XXX -c 0:85 -w 0:7 -m "" SNMP problem - No data recieved from host CMD: /usr/bin/snmpget -m -v 1 -c XXX host:161 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.2.1.58.0 Any ideas?

You've got to at least read the documentation enough to know that the external command file isn't really a file at all but rather a named pipe and not a configuration file like nagios.cfg, etc... It's not something that can be 'shared.' The documentation is very clear and it's very straightforward to set up. http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/extcommands.html. For a very basic setup you only have 4 bullet points to follow, 3 of which are just options in nagios.cfg.

That gives you a list of all hosts and services scheduled for a downtime. Click on the recycle bin icon for the item you want to take out of a downtime. You have to do this by first clicking on Downtime. If you go to the particular service or host and click on the recycle bin logo next to the comment (at the bottom), it only removes the comment, not the downtime. Maybe as a feature request for the UI, since when you view an acknowledged service/host, the list of options on the right includes a "Remove Problem Acknowledgement" link. Maybe services/hosts in a downtime should have a "Remove Scheduled Downtime" link in the command list.

Check your configuration file(s) to ensure that they contain valid directives and data defintions. If you are upgrading from a previous version of Nagios, you should be aware that some variables/definitions may have been removed or modified in this version. Make sure to read the HTML documentation on the main and host config files, as well as the 'Whats New' section to find out what has changed. =========== I tried to increasing the buffer size in xdata/xodtemplate.h and recompiling, but that did not alleviate this issue. What has changed in the way that Nagios loads the configuration? I followed the latest documentation in the configuration of the service. Here is an example: define service{ use check-service ; Name of service template to use hostgroup_name _Servers service_description PAGING contact_groups lan check_command check_nt_pagingfile!80!90 } Even if I comment out the lines Nagios errors on of, Nagios errors on the next hostgroup based definition. Any ideas as to what is causing this issue or what I can do to troubleshoot? Is there some other input buffer I need to modify?

However the Non-Techie Management types love the little pictures and network layout graph and such... so it has become my problem :) Problem is with 70+ hosts even after defining and seting up parents the thng is still a MAJOR mess... it seems the only solution is to define manual XYZ coordinates, which seems like a VERY LONG job. Does anyone have any advice out there on how I can do this in the easiest most painless way possible?? I heard rumors that in the day of Netsaint there was a GUI which would read in the config let you drag n' drop things to where you want them, then would write out the configs with the proper XYZ coordinates.

I have a a Temp Trax device with 2 sensors connected to the RH box with one sensor in each server room, with the Temp Trax plug-in installed. The data being reported is very inconsistent. The first 2 weeks of my graph show that both of the sensors timed out about 4 times that week at approximately the same time, but it would always recover. Then I had a whole week that the sensors did not time out at all. The next week they started timing out on Thursday afternoon, and did not recover. In response, I re-booted the server, and everything seems to be working again. Where should I be looking to see why this keeps happening, and how I can fix it without re-booting my server every week? I also would like to know if there is a way I can tell Nagios to check the temp trax service at specific times of the day or at a different time interval than the rest of the service and host checks.

I don't know if this belongs in the contrib section of the nagios-plugins, because it doesn't exactly fit the form. If I improve it significantly, then I'll formally resubmit it. Anyway, this requires that Java JDK1.3.1 or higher is installed on the monitoring machine, but you don't need to install the Oracle client. You only need the Oracle JDBC libraries, found in the form of classes12.zip or classes12.jar. My code uses the Java Thin Client to connect to the DB. You first need to compile the NagiosDBTest.java file to get NagiosDBTest.class. Then, in the shell script, you'll see that I set the $CLASSPATH to wherever the classes12 file is. My script then takes 4 args: host, sid, username, and password. The args that actually get passed to the java program are (in order), the connection string (which contains the host and sid), username, password, and query string (in quotes). You can vary the shell script as you like to run different queries or take different args, as long as these 4 args get passed to the java program (or edit the .java file to set up your own defaults). The java code simply makes a connection to the Oracle DB and runs the query. If a SQLException occurs, or the resultset of the query is empty, the java code returns a critical, and either the Exception message or "Empty Set" will be returned as output. If the query returns a resultset that has content, the java code returns an OK and outputs the result of the query. If you write smarter shell scripts, you can use the resultset output to do more calculations (check # of connections, etc). This code should work with non-Oracle databases are long as you have the proper JDBC libraries in the $CLASSPATH and use the correct connection string. Please feel free to email if you have any questions.

When I click on it for more info it shows the correct process information. It has the correct Nagios PID and the correct Total Running Time, Program Start Time, etc... But under the Process Commands section it says 'It appears as though Nagios is not running, so commands are temporarily unavailable...'. And under the Process Status Information section it says: 'Process Status: CRITICAL', 'Check Command Output: Could not locate a running Nagios process!'. But if I run the command as it is in the cgi.cfg file nagios_check_command=/usr/local/libexec/nagios/check_nagios /usr/local/var/nagios/status.log 5 ' /usr/local/bin/nagios' it has the following output: Nagios ok: located 1 process, status log updated 10 seconds ago Anyone have any ideas? I've already read and re-read TFM.

To my mind a good way of doing that is to . define a share on the MS printer server . define a queue that outputs anything spooled to it, to the share above . have the check spool a file of known size to the queue and then check if the size of the file on the share is equal to what was spooled. Such a check does in fact exist but at this stage relies on the same smbclient that the check_ms_spooler.pl does.

I am using Nagios 1.0 and I need to produce avaliability reports automatically and formated differently then they are displayed in Nagios. I am using MySQL as a holder for all the log files. Looking through the cgi code it seems that it is looking for archive files in order to determine when a host was down or up. However I don't see any of hte archive files. Therefore my question is this. How does Nagios, using MySQL to store all Logs, know when system was down or up in given period of time?

References: <03021212530701.00847@kasinux> Message-ID: <3E4A3C47.30D2E561@gcc.dhl.com> Dear, What you are looking for is parent/child host relationships in your host definitions, not host dependencies. "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."

The check_nt program (v 1.1.2.3) keeps reporting "No data received from host", but *only* on w2k boxes (I have tried it on three). It works fine on NT. Using gdb on check_nt, I can get the client to respond with the right info. The problem appears to be in the netutils.c file, my_connect routine, in the actual "result = connect(*sd ..." line.

Thats the problem, I think but can it be correct in the coming version. Can't we remove the first few characters and then record the query. Also there is one more problem. When the query returns the data, it is a counter not an exact value. So how can we enable warning for this type because here we have to substract the two values and then divide it by that much of time interval and then supply it to the chechcommand.cfg.

Seems like a good time to sit back and look at where I see as good areas of improvement. Nagios has a great and very flexible way of specifying who to contact. Its great. However, I think that it has some limitations that are hard to get around as is... for example... We monitor NTP on all hosts. On every single host we run we care if NTP stops working or is way off. However, we don't care so much that we want to be paged and maybe woken up about it. Email would be just dandy. On EVERY other service (ok there are one or two like NTP in this regard but, NTP ius the ubiquitous one) we want to be paged if its down and to escalate up through manager and last ditch efforts to "page the world" if its not taken care of within some period of time. Thats easy to do of course we just make our rules and for the escalations we just do "Service_description *" and it works great. The problem is...this then matches NTP and escalates. Getting around this has been interesting... it basically seems to mean that we have to have a huge set of escalation rules to handle all services individually for each hostgroup that has different contacts associated because.... we can't list grpoups of services in the service description. (ie if "foogroup" has services PING NTP and SMTP we need a service escalation definition for each of PING and SMTP - which is fine for 3 but, I count about 12 checks that are on most every host, and no less than 3 or 4 groups of hosts that have different escalation paths which means several 10s of rules for something that could easily be defined in 4 or 5 rules if there was just a way to group services better) And of course, going forward as we have more checks and more groups on board and having their machines monitored, we expect these numbers will grow. Heh if this continues, I may have to start generating the escalations config with m4 macros :/ Anyone have any ideas on how to get around this? Any chance we might see some manner of this in the future? -Steve -- "The Creation of the Universe was made possible by a grant from Texas Instruments.

Message-ID: <3E4AB701.D0FA23D6@wholefoods.com> Hi all, I'm setting up Nagios 1.0 on a Solaris 8 box for use in monitoring various Oracle and Informix databases. I'm making a modified version of the check_oracle_instance.pl plugin for this purpose. I need to have the cgi interface display not only the tablespaces which pass the warning/critical stage, but also those tablespaces which are ok. I've hit a snag in the cgi, though: there seems to be a limit on the length of the "status information" message that can be displayed, and some of the info is getting chopped off for db's with lots of tablespaces. The information that's being returned is fine; it appears to be just in the cgi display that it's being truncated. My question: could anyone point me to a simple config modification which would increase the length limit of this "status information" message? I looked at the source code for status.c and MAX_MESSAGE_BUFFER looked promising, but I don't know enough C to figure out what should be changed and where, if anything. As an experiment I increased the amount for both MAX_MESSAGE_BUFFER and MAX_INPUT_BUFFER (in common.h), but after recompiling, there was no change in the display. Much thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide, greg p.s. I'm using Perl 5.8.0, DBI 1.32, DBD::Oracle 1.12, DBD::Informix 1.04.PC1, Oracle 8.1.7, and Informix 7.3. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null From whiatt at upstanding.com Wed Feb 12 22:20:08 2003 From: whiatt at upstanding.com (Hiatt, William) Date: Wed, 12 Feb 2003 13:20:08 -0800 Subject: Monitoring LaserJet 4050 with JetDirect 610N?

Message-ID: <005701c2d2e3$e018b540$22cf483f@korth> First off this program rules, I have been searching for usefull documentation on writing plugins for nagios but havent found much. So any links/whatever there would be greaetly appreciated. Secondly: I have been struggling with running nagios on sloaris 2.7 and have ironed everything out except for one issue. For the status map to work you need to have the gd/jpg/png lib installed. The most recent verisions of all have been isntalled, on installing the GD lib it checked for and found the png and jpg libs fine and dandy, also that install went fine. When one actually clicks on the status map link we get an internal server error and the following line appears in the apache error logs. --begin log snippet-- ld.so.1: statusmap.cgi: fatal: libgd.so.2: open failed: No such file or directory [Wed Feb 12 12:01:59 2003] [error] [client 63.72.207.34] Premature end of script headers: /usr/local/nagios/sbin//statusmap.cgi --end log snippet-- The file name 'libgd.so.2' is a symbolic link in /usr/local/lib that points to /usr/local/lib/libgd.so.2.0.0 the ls -l /usr/local/lib/libgd.so* output shows me this: --begin ls output-- lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 14 Feb 10 13:33 libgd.so -> libgd.so.2.0.0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 14 Feb 10 13:33 libgd.so.2 -> libgd.so.2.0.0 -rwxr-xr-x 1 bin bin 479764 Feb 10 13:33 libgd.so.2.0.0 --end ls output-- I have compiled nagios using: --with-gd-lib=/usr/local/lib --with-gd-inc=/usr/local/inc I for grins, put a symbolic link to the file in a few other dirs i thought it maybe trying to look in, even though it was compiled with the gd dir specified.

I have verified that the Squid service is running in forward proxy mode. Unfortunately, I am not as interested in monitoring squid as I am DG. I've run packet captures on the request and things look normal, but I keep getting this same error message back. If anyone has any other ideas I'm happy to try them out. Marc, I think you mentioned something about modifying the plugin to allow error codes such as HTTP/1.0 403 to return an OK. I've tested with the DG service shut down and I get a connection refused, so in this case getting a 400 is a good thing. I'm not sure if you were referring to modifying the plugin yourself or asking Karl to, but it seems like it would be a useful thing. Thanks, Robert S.

Thanks much for the help, it's handy to know that solaris doesn't make that available to everything. For those of us unfamiliar with apache the fix was simple. Open your apache conf file, usually /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf Add in the line SetEnv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/lib:/usr/local/lib:/other/lib/dirs You may need to use PassEnv instead of SetEnv for older versions of apache (previous to 1.1 I belive) Thanks again Robert and hopefully I will be able to find some good docs on making custom plug-ins if not I will play with it and write some. - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Roberto Moral" To: "Josh" Sent: Wednesday, February 12, 2003 12:35 PM Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] 1)GOOD plugin documentation? 2)library issues. Hello Josh, There are a couple of ways to deal with your problem. 1 is with LD_LIBRARY_PATH, by default Solaris does not include this path as a path where libraries can be found so using the LD_LIBRARY_PATH will add that gd libraries, there is also a way of telling Apache in its config file about LD_LIBRARY_PATH The second option is to create symbolic links to the libraries in /usr/lib so the symbolic link /usr/lib/libdg.so.2 would point to /usr/local/lib/libgd.so.2.0.0 this is time consuming becase you need to link every library in /usr/local/lib good luck.

I think the check_command line is wrong in the service definition. I suggest either 1 check_citrix!"App1,App2"!"App3,App4" or because there is a nasty bug (Thanks !) in check_citrix that makes the order of applications important (ie you have to specify the apps in the same order as specified in the browse list eg if browse list returns them A1,A2,A3,A4,A5 then Bad: -P "A1,A5" Good: -P "A1,A2,A3,A4.A5". Are you interested in testing a new version ? 2 2.1 Change the command_line in checkcommands.cfg to command_line $USER1$/check_citrix -C $HOSTADDRESS$ -W $ARG1$ -W $ARG2$ -P $ARG3 -P $ARG4$. Pretty slack I know. 2.2 Change check_command in services.cfg to check_citrix!"App1"!"App2"!"App3"!"App4" > The ping services on these hosts work fine, but citrix keeps coming > back critical and the web interface says (No output!) under Status > Information. No output means the plugin failed to write any output. This usually means that 1 The plugin failed to compile under the tricky ePN environment 2 The plugin failed to handle the options and wigged out disgracefully. Bad plugin.

Is there any way to achieve this by using the external command file? I couldn't see it in the list of commands, but maybe it's an undocumented feature (Copyright Microsoft Inc.). An alternative would be to write a small script that pipes a "PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT" to the external command file for a dummy service to make it go into warning/critical. A mail can then be sent out. Afterwards that same script should pipe another "PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT" to the external command file to return the service state back to OK. Pretty lame, but it's the best thing I could come up with. Anyone got a better idea? It would be nice to be able to send out alerts when a service is in an OK state (not recovered, just OK)... Then I could just use check_dummy and have the service checked once per day. Any suggestions?

The server is P-3 500Mhz and 256 mb memory running Redhat Linux 7.2 and kernel version of 2.4.7-10. The CPU load of the server used for monitoring is increasing day by day. We have allready tried to optimize the services checks delay etc, but still there needs to be some optimization. I have seen the page in the documentation of Nagios about tuning the performance. Im left with an option of going for the ramdisk for storing the logs. Has anybody used Ramdisk before. What are implications of using ramdisk?? Please advice.

If it does not see any CRITICAL, OK or WARNING values then I am not surprised it has not produced any output. To your checkcommand entry you would be better putting $USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS -v USEDDISKSPACE -l d $ARG1$ -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$ $ARG1$ = Partition $ARG2$ = Warning value in % used $ARG3$ = Warning value in % used And your service.cfg entry would be something like define service{ use generic-nt-server host_name nt_server service_description D DISK is_volatile 0 contact_groups nt_contacts check_command check_nt_disk!D!80!90 } Here is specified $ARG1$, $ARG2$ and $ARG3$ each separated by a "!". Obviously change the host_name, contact_groups and the service template to use. By doing it this way you can use the same checkcommand definition for all partitions on you NT boxes. Hope this helps.

I didn't realize the plugin could take quotes that way. Thanks :) Glad I could help with bug-stomping! Does this mean I have to *include* all those apps in the published application list between A1 and A5 (in your example)? Or do I just have to make sure they're in the correct order, i.e. A1, A5 as opposed to A5, A1? I really don't want to make multiple command definitions for checking multiple #s of published apps if I can avoid it.... so the -P A1 -P A2 thing is definitely a last resort. Also, I recently recompiled Nagios WITHOUT ePN support, so that's not it, and yes, I would be interested in testing a new version of check_citrix :) Do let me know at your earliest convenience...

I think the check_command line is wrong in the service definition. I suggest either 1 check_citrix!"App1,App2"!"App3,App4" or because there is a nasty bug (Thanks !) in check_citrix that makes the order of applications important (ie you have to specify the apps in the same order as specified in the browse list eg if browse list returns them A1,A2,A3,A4,A5 then Bad: -P "A1,A5" Good: -P "A1,A2,A3,A4.A5". Are you interested in testing a new version ? 2 2.1 Change the command_line in checkcommands.cfg to command_line $USER1$/check_citrix -C $HOSTADDRESS$ -W $ARG1$ -W $ARG2$ -P $ARG3 -P $ARG4$. Pretty slack I know. 2.2 Change check_command in services.cfg to check_citrix!"App1"!"App2"!"App3"!"App4" > The ping services on these hosts work fine, but citrix keeps coming > back critical and the web interface says (No output!) under Status > Information. No output means the plugin failed to write any output.

I didn't realize the plugin could take quotes that way. Thanks :) Glad I could help with bug-stomping! Does this mean I have to *include* all those apps in the published application list between A1 and A5 (in your example)? Or do I just have to make sure they're in the correct order, i.e. A1, A5 as opposed to A5, A1? I really don't want to make multiple command definitions for checking multiple #s of published apps if I can avoid it.... so the -P A1 -P A2 thing is definitely a last resort. Also, I recently recompiled Nagios WITHOUT ePN support, so that's not it, and yes, I would be interested in testing a new version of check_citrix :) Do let me know at your earliest convenience...

I think the check_command line is wrong in the service definition. I suggest either 1 check_citrix!"App1,App2"!"App3,App4" or because there is a nasty bug (Thanks !) in check_citrix that makes the order of applications important (ie you have to specify the apps in the same order as specified in the browse list eg if browse list returns them A1,A2,A3,A4,A5 then Bad: -P "A1,A5" Good: -P "A1,A2,A3,A4.A5". Are you interested in testing a new version ? 2 2.1 Change the command_line in checkcommands.cfg to command_line $USER1$/check_citrix -C $HOSTADDRESS$ -W $ARG1$ -W $ARG2$ -P $ARG3 -P $ARG4$. Pretty slack I know. 2.2 Change check_command in services.cfg to check_citrix!"App1"!"App2"!"App3"!"App4" > The ping services on these hosts work fine, but citrix keeps coming > back critical and the web interface says (No output!) under Status > Information.

Perhaps you have multiple Nagios instances running wild? Stop Nagios, and then do something like "ps -ef | grep nagios". If you see any processes: kill them. Then start Nagios again.

On the one hand, you've given freelinuxcd.org the name of generic-host, and 2 lines later, you're telling Nagios to refer to the generic-host definition for the details. Not related to this issue, your check_command is incorrect. You're specifying the command here, when you should be referencing a token in checkcommands.cfg. If I may...? Try this instead: define host{ name generic-host notifications_enabled 1 event_handler_enabled 1 flap_detection_enabled 1 process_perf_data 1 retain_status_information 1 retain_nonstatus_information 1 register 0 } define host{ use generic-host host_name freelinuxcd.org alias Free Linux CD Project Server address 131.161.247.80 check_command check-host-alive max_check_attempts 10 notification_interval 120 notification_period 24x7 notification_options d,u,r } Some notes: 1) You've got low_flap_threshold and high_flap_threshold set... I don't believe these directives exist in any host/service definition (but I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong)... however, there are names similar to these in nagios.cfg, which is where they belong. 2) The address *must* be the IP address, if you're to use it at all. Extrapolating from your example, I would guess that you're relying on DNS to do the hostname resolution. In that case, remove the 'address' line altogether. (It also frees you up in case someone renumbers that hostname. But there are other issues to concern yourself with if you go that route... for now, just try the above trivial case just to get it working. You can fine tune later.) Anyway, try the above on for size. If it works, great. If you're surprised that it works, go back and read over the documentation to find out why.

There are three command formats that can be used: ... snip .. 3. "Raw" Command Line: You may optionally specify an actual command line to be executed. To do so you must enclose the entire command line in double quotes. The outer double quotes will be stripped off before the command is actually executed. No macros are processed inside of raw command lines. ' You command line is wrong. Try, command_line "/check_citrix -C test.host.com -P 'App'" I realise that there may be a problem with the plugin, but doing things wrongly and being suprised by the outcome is not helpful. You must be more accurate about your reports. There is _no_ way that you could have 'Tried this exact command on the command line su-ed as nagios and it worked fine.'. I think you meant, 'I tried /check_citrix -C test.host.com -P "App" su-ed as Nagios and it worked fine.' When you arev more careful about what you say, you may find that the solution to the problem comes to mind. Characterising and Describing a problem is a good way toward solving it.

Check Execution Time: < 1 sec 21 sec 4.465 sec Check Latency: < 1 sec 140 sec 61.503 se This is happening in the nagios server allthough the cpu load is normal. After that i have done service interleave factor as none so no delay is introduced beween checks.After that the condition is like shown above. Im monitoring 37 hosts and some 250 services. Can there be some other reason for latency in service checks Regards Atul. -- --------------------------------------- Mindframe Software & Services Pvt. Ltd.

I guess it depends a lot on the problems of the services that you are monitoring. Having too many critical services will lead to high latency. Are you having lots of critical issues?

There are numerous times that I get alerts about 'No answer from client'. I'm assuming it's having problems connecting to the socket and I'm not surprised since I'm in Kansas City and these servers are in Dallas (and Sprint's internal network sucks!!!) Anyway, at the suggestion of someone on this list, I set up a service that would just check to see if I could connect to the socket that netsaint_statd is running on (sort of a heartbeat) and make all my filesystem services dependent on this. So, if the filesystem service checks fail because of 'No answer from client', isn't it supposed to then check to see if the heartbeat is OK before I get a notification? Stanley G.

I haven't looked closely at Vladislav's snmppd SNMP proxy (yet), but I expect that there's another interesting aspect to it. It will likely allow you to securely and reliably do SNMP checks to remote locations, through firewalls and across open networks, since it uses TCP and one could (presumably) use stunnel (or equivalent) to encrypt the traffic. It may also help with certain problems passing UDP SNMP traffic through NAT and some firewalls. I think it may be able to solve a number of problems that I've been worried about. Cheers!

I've got both of these set to "w,u,c". jc > -----Original Message----- > From: Martin, Stanley G > Sent: Friday, February 14, 2003 10:47 AM > To: nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [Nagios-users] Problem w/dependencies > > > I'm running 'netsaint_statd' on some AIX servers so that I can monitor > disk space.

Have a host group that contains around 200 members, and some of the names are pretty long. All hosts are monitored and we see when they go down, but Nagios doesn't send notifications for some of the members in the group, while it will send notifications for others. All members members of this group are defined the same . Seems I remember that with Netsaint there was a problem when a hostgroup definition had too many letters that resulted in this problem. Not too many hosts in the host group, but rather a lot of hosts with rather long names making the hostgroup entry be too many letters on what is a single line. Am using the templete based configs. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Example: Torrance Pasadena Van Nuys | | | RR10.01,RR10.02 RR20.01,RR20.02 RR30.01, RR30.02 etc | | | Customers in each RR Customers in each RR Customers in each RR Is there a way to setup a master hostgroup for each city, that has A master hostgroup containing the Relay Racks in that city. Then Below that are the customers per Relay Rack. Right now, I just define hostgroups which right now are simply the Relay racks. But I want to be able to "click down" a hierarchy of City, then Relay Racks per city, then get the client detail. Like if you click "Service Overview for all host groups" can you get Simply "Torrance" and have it pull up the Relay Racks in Torrance. Then you can click on a specific Relay Rack to get customer detail? Would appreciate learning how larger facilities are doing the above...

They are specific to each installation. lmstat uses the info in the file to figure out which host(s) the server(s) are running on. check_flexlm currently only verifies that the flexlm license manager is running - it does not verify the state of any secondary vendor daemons. -- -sg ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null From DanielJ at avatar-cs.net Mon Feb 17 07:43:39 2003 From: DanielJ at avatar-cs.net (Daniel Jimenez) Date: Mon, 17 Feb 2003 00:43:39 -0600 Subject: pngtogd2 issue Message-ID: <115F85A8196CD411BBAB0008C759066182041B@FS01> Can anyone provide any details on this? -----Original Message----- From: Daniel Jimenez Sent: Saturday, February 15, 2003 1:04 PM To: nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] pngtogd2 issue All, I have Nagios almost 100% configured correctly.

When I run pngtogd2 file.png file.gd2 0 0 it creates a file w/o error, I have Nagios pointing to this file for the status map... yet it still displays a question mark.

I haven't looked closely at Vladislav's snmppd SNMP proxy (yet), but I expect that there's another interesting aspect to it. It will likely allow you to securely and reliably do SNMP checks to remote locations, through firewalls and across open networks, since it uses TCP and one could (presumably) use stunnel (or equivalent) to encrypt the traffic. It may also help with certain problems passing UDP SNMP traffic through NAT and some firewalls. I think it may be able to solve a number of problems that I've been worried about. Cheers!

I've just built the 200202132308 CVS version of Nagios and Nagios plugins to see if it resolves a few issues in 1.0 stable, primarily not being able to get the statusmap CGI to build at all. For the most part it does (statusmap.cgi now compiles and runs although, in common with a number of others, I can't get it to use the graphics I want) but there is one weird problem. When a plugin returns a WARNING or CRITICAL state, the service detail display always shows a CRITICAL error and a message such as "(Return code of 512 is out of bounds)". If I run the plugin manually (as the nagios user) with identical parameters, it behaves as expected when there's a warning/critical situation - displaying a text message and returning an error code of 1 or 2 or 3. When called by Nagios, this error code is apparently being multiplied by 256 giving a return code of 256 or 512 or 768 which is interpreted as being out of bounds. This seems to be happening on all plugins (I've seen it on check_ftp, check_http, check_nt, check_ntp and check_fping) so I'd say it was to do with the core code and not the plugin code. Has anybody experienced anything similar or know how to fix the problem? Failing that, where's a good place to start looking? :) I'm going to give 200202171109 a try - I'll obviously post again if that solves the problem.

Please bear in mind that nagios itself is not currently suited for deployment from the CVS tree. Ethan has stated (and reiterated) that he is in the middle of sweeping changes that preclude this. If 1.0 stable does not work, and you can find the bug, perhaps the sources can be patched. In fact, I have appiled one patch to the RPM for an open file descriptor issue (not posted yet). But it seems more likely that you need to look to be sure gd libd and freetype are being properly recognized - historically that has been a big problem. Have you already double checked that? (Feel free to run the plugins off the CVS tree - because of their modularity, the CVS is much easier to keep consistent. In fact, since we're nearing beta 3, I'd consider CVS your best source at the moment). -- Karl ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null From philc at foundation-it.com Mon Feb 17 18:50:44 2003 From: philc at foundation-it.com (Phil Costelloe) Date: Mon, 17 Feb 2003 17:50:44 -0000 Subject: Out of bounds return codes using current CVS Nagios Message-ID: <4E71CFD68DCB4E49B04AD93E84827EE909E7A2@netfinity-1.foundation-it.local> > From: Phil Costelloe > > When a plugin returns a WARNING or CRITICAL state, the > service detail display always shows a CRITICAL error and a > message such as "(Return code of 512 is out of bounds)".

I assume you meant "check_ftp -s QUIT -H ". :-) I tried that and it does the same thing. If I telnet to port 21 and type QUIT, it doesn't leave a process laying around. However, at this point I don't think it's the plugin's fault -- I tried installing the proftpd server on another one of my boxes and it doesn't exhibit this symptom. I'm scheduled to replace the current ftp server early next week -- hopefully the problem will not follow to the new server. :-) ...dave ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null From irenes at wolfram.com Mon Feb 17 22:25:34 2003 From: irenes at wolfram.com (Irene Sakellarakis) Date: Mon, 17 Feb 2003 15:25:34 -0600 (CST) Subject: check_nfs.pl In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Thanks to all who replied, the solution worked just fine.

This magic worked for me: Config: RedHat 7.3 gd-1.8.4-4 RPM SRPMS source package for same GIMP 1.2.3 The first step was building "pngtogd2" via "rpm -ba " and using the /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/gd-1.8.4/pngtogd2 that it built. The spec file I use does not include this handy utility by default. I tried using the gd 2.x source with the installed gd 1.8 RPM and the resulting pngtogd2 binary built mangled gd2 files. This was only discovered when I used the gd2topng to convert them back and had it coredump. In order to get transparency working, I used Gimp to convert each image to 8-bit indexed color with background color. GD 1.x does not support a PNG alpha channel at all, but does support a single transparent color. I carefully erased the portions of each image I wanted to be transparent and saved them as 8-bit indexed color PNG files. These converted nicely to GD2 files using: /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/gd-1.8.4/pngtogd2 image.png image.gd2 0 1 The images were installed in /usr/share/nagios/images/logos (another RedHat-ism) and once referenced via /etc/nagios/hostextinfo.cfg they worked fine. Note that many of these paths are different because the RedHat paths differ from the Nagios defaults.

While Rasmus is perfectly correct, I will also add that in the 1.3.0 release, there should be a list of one-line descriptions of each. If I'm ambitious, maybe even tonight.

This problem comes and goes, but it's particularly annoying as it generates about 20-30 false alarms per day.

I had this problem, too. What I found was that I had the .htaccess file in /usr/local/nagios/share, which covered the initial login, but when I went to any of the cgi pages, it would report 'logged in as ?'. The fix was to copy the .htaccess file from /usr/local/nagios/share to /usr/local/nagios/sbin. The reason that it is happening is that you are authenticated to the HTML files' directory, but not to the CGI files' directory. - -- - -------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Michael W.

Looks like both apache and nagios belong to the nagiocmd group (aside from their own groups). Daniel, all I can suggest at this point is to start checking logfiles: for Apache, /var/log/messages, the Nagios logfiles. You might also want to try doing an strace. This might be overkill, but it seems Daniel has done The Right Things otherwise. Although... Daniel, could you indulge us, and competely shutdown both nagios and apache, do a ps to confirm that both are down (and "pkill -9" them if they aren't), then restart them and see if that doesn't help...?

It's like having a rock... sure, it looks great, but... it doesn't do a whole lot of anything for anyone. AFAIK, what you're looking for doesn't exist. But you still have these options: - disable notifications for all services on a given host (but leave the host notifications enabled) - put host into downtime The latter isn't so bad, really. What use is a host if you can't even login to it? If you *can* login to the host, you might want to add that service to the various services you do check.

Anyway, I can't get the darned thing to sumit check results to the main nagios server in this office. I used to submit_check_result script from the web page, and it DOES work _for_sure_ when I run it on the command-line. I've determined that it's simply never getting called by nagios itself... I set obsess_over_services=1 I set ocsp_command=submit_check_result The commands.cfg file knows about submit_check_result, and if I alter the ocsp_command= line in any way, nagios will no longer start, which would be correct behavior. I use templates for all my service checks, and in the active and passive service templates both, I set obsess_over_service to "1"... What am I missing? The distributed-server's status.log indicates that it IS doing the checks -- the timestamps are current, and the statuses are all what I'd expect them to be.

However, it lacks trend analysis and performance history. Although the Nagios documentation does talk about spitting output from plugins to a file and using RRDTOOL to chart your own data, it would be convenient if this feature was built-in. I am therefore thinking of using OpenNMS for trend analysis and performance history. Does anyone have any comments on using OpenNMS for trend analysis and performance history? Or are there other tools that plugin with Nagios to do trend analysis and performance history, so that I can avoid the grunt work with rrdtool? Some of things I am interested in charting include CPU load, disk space utilization, network interface utilization over a long period of time, (days, weeks, months) all of which I monitor currently using check_snmp plugin with Nagios. Although I do have Cricket and MRTG setup for trend analysis, maintaining 3 tools is a hassle and I would rather stick with Nagios if I can. (Or perhaps Nagios and OpenNMS?) The histograms that come with Nagios, if they can be extended to chart such features such as the ones mentioned above, it would be very nice.

Here is the output : OK - / 16.29% Used - /home 9.59% Used - /usr 76.98% Used - /var 28.55% Used Currently I'm using CMU-SNMP in all my machines and configured it to report disk utilization for each partition. -snmpd.conf disk / disk /usr disk /home disk /var -- check_disk_snmp.pl first fetchs all partitions configured, and then lookup each one to see if they are free enough. You can configure WARN and CRITICAL percentages. Today it does the work very well for me, but if there's any other people needing it, I can make it a little better and more configurable. If anyone has interest in it, please let me know. thiago. (sorry about the bad english) ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SlickEdit Inc.

From what I can see, there is no way to do something like this: define servicedependency{ dependent_host_name host_name dependent_service_description service_description1,service_description2, .. service_descriptionN host_name host_name service_description service_description execution_failure_criteria [o,w,u,c,n] notification_failure_criteria [o,w,u,c,n]??? } Of course, you can create one set of definitions specifying every single service_description on one machine and then do a huge copy/paste of that entire block, then search-and-replace the dependent_service description, but... at this point my dependencies file is three times larger than the entire hosts and services definition file and growing and already a gigantic pain in the posterior to manage. What I need is a way to do "on every host, separately make services 1, 2, 3 dependent on service X on the same host". Perfect for NRPE, to pick one example, I want all the NRPE-based service checks dependent on NRPE itself being up on that same machine. Making service V on machine X dependent on service Y on machine Z is probably useful for somebody but I can't understand why you cannot specify multiple dependent services, as you can specify multiple machines? > -----Original Message----- > From: Carroll, Jim P [Contractor] > [mailto:jcarro10 at sprintspectrum.com] > Sent: den 18 februari 2003 18:09 > To: 'timwest at warwickshire.gov.uk'; Nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: RE: [Nagios-users] question about service > dependencies and templa tes > > > This is something I recently decided I needed to test out > myself.

However, except for APAN and roll-your-own solutions (refer to my post of a few mins ago regarding using JpGraph and MySQL), it's not there. I'm sure Ethan would consider clever and eloquent code submissions in this regard. As for OpenNMS, I do recall a post discussing this about 2-3 months ago.

Unknowns are now 3 for Nagios (someone might want to change this is the Nagios contrib directory if it hasn't been already). Finally, do you have retain_nonstatus_information=1 for services? My only other guess is that if you first has ocsp turned off, and then you've tried reloading Nagios, when retain_nonstatus is on, it will use the settings it already had rather than any changes to the cfg's. So another thing to try would be to set that to 0, stop and start Nagios and see what it does. I'm just trying to brainstorm what the problem could be. It's got to either be that "nagios" can't run it for some reason, or that nagios can't tell that it's supposed to run it. Another test could be to change the submit_check_result command in the commands.cfg to something you know works (an email notification command or something). That would hopefully tell you what area the problem is in.

However, except for APAN and roll-your-own solutions (refer to my post of a few mins ago regarding using JpGraph and MySQL), it's not there. I'm sure Ethan would consider clever and eloquent code submissions in this regard. As for OpenNMS, I do recall a post discussing this about 2-3 months ago. If you want to give it a go, best of luck, as the general consensus was that OpenNMS devours system resources.

I have configured host dependencies such that I do not receive pages on downstream hosts when a dependent upstream host is down or unreachable. The problem I am encountering is when the upstream node (closest to the Nagios server) goes down, I do not receive notifications for any hosts dependent on that upstream device (as expected) ... but when the upstream host becomes reachable/up, I receive UP notifications for all hosts dependent on the upstream that went into a HARD down/unreachable state. According to the "notification logic" documentation, an UP notification should never be sent on a device that did not trigger a DOWN/UNREACHABLE notification. Can anyone explain this behavior and possibly instruct me on what needs to be done to suppress the UP notifications for all of the dependent devices?

This should be the first option specified # in the config file!!! log_file=/usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.log # OBJECT CONFIGURATION FILE(S) # This is the configuration file in which you define hosts, host # groups, contacts, contact groups, services, etc. I guess it would # be better called an object definition file, but for historical # reasons it isn't. You can split object definitions into several # different config files by using multiple cfg_file statements here. # Nagios will read and process all the config files you define. # This can be very useful if you want to keep command definitions # separate from host and contact definitions... # Plugin commands (service and host check commands) # Arguments are likely to change between different releases of the # plugins, so you should use the same config file provided with the # plugin release rather than the one provided with Nagios. cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/checkcommands.cfg # Misc commands (notification and event handler commands, etc) cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/misccommands.cfg # You can split other types of object definitions across several # config files if you wish (as done here), or keep them all in a # single config file. cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/contactgroups.cfg cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/contacts.cfg cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/dependencies.cfg cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/escalations.cfg cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/hostgroups.cfg cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/hosts.cfg cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/services.cfg cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/timeperiods.cfg # RESOURCE FILE # This is an optional resource file that contains $USERx$ macro # definitions. Multiple resource files can be specified by using # multiple resource_file definitions. The CGIs will not attempt to # read the contents of resource files, so information that is # considered to be sensitive (usernames, passwords, etc) can be # defined as macros in this file and restrictive permissions (600) # can be placed on this file. resource_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/resource.cfg # STATUS FILE # This is where the current status of all monitored services and # hosts is stored.

By default # Nagios will *not* check for external commands, just to be on the # cautious side. If you want to be able to use the CGI command interface # you will have to enable this. Setting this value to 0 disables command # checking (the default), other values enable it. check_external_commands=1 # EXTERNAL COMMAND CHECK INTERVAL # This is the interval at which Nagios should check for external commands. # This value works of the interval_length you specify later. If you leave # that at its default value of 60 (seconds), a value of 1 here will cause # Nagios to check for external commands every minute. If you specify a # number followed by an "s" (i.e. 15s), this will be interpreted to mean # actual seconds rather than a multiple of the interval_length variable. # Note: In addition to reading the external command file at regularly # scheduled intervals, Nagios will also check for external commands after # event handlers are executed. # NOTE: Setting this value to -1 causes Nagios to check the external # command file as often as possible. #command_check_interval=1 #command_check_interval=15s command_check_interval=-1 # EXTERNAL COMMAND FILE # This is the file that Nagios checks for external command requests. # It is also where the command CGI will write commands that are submitted # by users, so it must be writeable by the user that the web server # is running as (usually 'nobody'). Permissions should be set at the # directory level instead of on the file, as the file is deleted every # time its contents are processed. command_file=/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd # COMMENT FILE # This is the file that Nagios will use for storing host and service # comments. comment_file=/usr/local/nagios/var/comment.log # DOWNTIME FILE # This is the file that Nagios will use for storing host and service # downtime data. downtime_file=/usr/local/nagios/var/downtime.log # LOCK FILE # This is the lockfile that Nagios will use to store its PID number # in when it is running in daemon mode. lock_file=/usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.lock # TEMP FILE # This is a temporary file that is used as scratch space when Nagios # updates the status log, cleans the comment file, etc. This file # is created, used, and deleted throughout the time that Nagios is # running. temp_file=/usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.tmp # LOG ROTATION METHOD # This is the log rotation method that Nagios should use to rotate # the main log file.

If passive service checks should be logged, set this # value to 1. log_passive_service_checks=1 # GLOBAL HOST AND SERVICE EVENT HANDLERS # These options allow you to specify a host and service event handler # command that is to be run for every host or service state change. # The global event handler is executed immediately prior to the event # handler that you have optionally specified in each host or # service definition. The command argument is the short name of a # command definition that you define in your host configuration file. # Read the HTML docs for more information. #global_host_event_handler=somecommand #global_service_event_handler=somecommand # INTER-CHECK DELAY METHOD # This is the method that Nagios should use when initially # "spreading out" service checks when it starts monitoring. The # default is to use smart delay calculation, which will try to # space all service checks out evenly to minimize CPU load. # Using the dumb setting will cause all checks to be scheduled # at the same time (with no delay between them)! This is not a # good thing for production, but is useful when testing the # parallelization functionality. # n = None - don't use any delay between checks # d = Use a "dumb" delay of 1 second between checks # s = Use "smart" inter-check delay calculation # x.xx = Use an inter-check delay of x.xx seconds inter_check_delay_method=s # SERVICE CHECK INTERLEAVE FACTOR # This variable determines how service checks are interleaved. # Interleaving the service checks allows for a more even # distribution of service checks and reduced load on remote # hosts. Setting this value to 1 is equivalent to how versions # of Nagios previous to 0.0.5 did service checks. Set this # value to s (smart) for automatic calculation of the interleave # factor unless you have a specific reason to change it. # s = Use "smart" interleave factor calculation # x = Use an interleave factor of x, where x is a # number greater than or equal to 1. service_interleave_factor=s # MAXIMUM CONCURRENT SERVICE CHECKS # This option allows you to specify the maximum number of # service checks that can be run in parallel at any given time. # Specifying a value of 1 for this variable essentially prevents # any service checks from being parallelized.

Upon # startup Nagios will reload all saved service and host state # information before starting to monitor. This is useful for # maintaining long-term data on state statistics, etc, but will # slow Nagios down a bit when it (re)starts.

Otherwise set this value to 1 to # enable the agressive check option. Read the docs for more info # on what agressive host check is or check out the source code in # base/checks.c use_agressive_host_checking=1 # SERVICE CHECK EXECUTION OPTION # This determines whether or not Nagios will actively execute # service checks when it initially starts. If this option is # disabled, checks are not actively made, but Nagios can still # receive and process passive check results that come in. Unless # you're implementing redundant hosts or have a special need for # disabling the execution of service checks, leave this enabled! # Values: 1 = enable checks, 0 = disable checks execute_service_checks=1 # PASSIVE CHECK ACCEPTANCE OPTION # This determines whether or not Nagios will accept passive # service checks results when it initially (re)starts. # Values: 1 = accept passive checks, 0 = reject passive checks accept_passive_service_checks=1 # NOTIFICATIONS OPTION # This determines whether or not Nagios will sent out any host or # service notifications when it is initially (re)started. # Values: 1 = enable notifications, 0 = disable notifications enable_notifications=1 # EVENT HANDLER USE OPTION # This determines whether or not Nagios will run any host or # service event handlers when it is initially (re)started.

The command # argument is the short name of a command definition that you # define in your host configuration file. Read the HTML docs for # more information on implementing distributed monitoring. #ocsp_command=somecommand # ORPHANED SERVICE CHECK OPTION # This determines whether or not Nagios will periodically # check for orphaned services. Since service checks are not # rescheduled until the results of their previous execution # instance are processed, there exists a possibility that some # checks may never get rescheduled. This seems to be a rare # problem and should not happen under normal circumstances. # If you have problems with service checks never getting # rescheduled, you might want to try enabling this option. # Values: 1 = enable checks, 0 = disable checks check_for_orphaned_services=0 # SERVICE FRESHNESS CHECK OPTION # This option determines whether or not Nagios will periodically # check the "freshness" of service results. Enabling this option # is useful for ensuring passive checks are received in a timely # manner. # Values: 1 = enabled freshness checking, 0 = disable freshness checking check_service_freshness=1 # FRESHNESS CHECK INTERVAL # This setting determines how often (in seconds) Nagios will # check the "freshness" of service check results. If you have # disabled service freshness checking, this option has no effect. freshness_check_interval=60 # AGGREGATED STATUS UPDATES # This option determines whether or not Nagios will # aggregate updates of host, service, and program status # data. Normally, status data is updated immediately when # a change occurs. This can result in high CPU loads if # you are monitoring a lot of services. If you want Nagios # to only refresh status data every few seconds, disable # this option. # Values: 1 = enable aggregate updates, 0 = disable aggregate updates aggregate_status_updates=1 # AGGREGATED STATUS UPDATE INTERVAL # Combined with the aggregate_status_updates option, # this option determines the frequency (in seconds!) that # Nagios will periodically dump program, host, and # service status data. If you are not using aggregated # status data updates, this option has no effect. status_update_interval=15 # FLAP DETECTION OPTION # This option determines whether or not Nagios will try # and detect hosts and services that are "flapping". # Flapping occurs when a host or service changes between # states too frequently. When Nagios detects that a # host or service is flapping, it will temporarily supress # notifications for that host/service until it stops # flapping. Flap detection is very experimental, so read # the HTML documentation before enabling this feature! # Values: 1 = enable flap detection # 0 = disable flap detection (default) enable_flap_detection=0 # FLAP DETECTION THRESHOLDS FOR HOSTS AND SERVICES # Read the HTML documentation on flap detection for # an explanation of what this option does.

But if a service check fails the host is then checked, this much I know, if it is then found that the host is also down which is why the service check failed would Nagios only then notify on the service failures? I've never noticed this as since using Nagios we have not had a host go down only service failures. Sorry I can't be of more help. One thing I did notice that you have duplicated information in your service definitions that have already been specified in you template. I don't think this has anything to do with your problem, however I was wondering if this was wise. Perhaps the service definition entries override the template entries.

That's the message you are seeing. Since it runs on the command line, I suspect either your OS is hardened and the unprivleged nagios user cannot run ping. -- Karl ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SlickEdit Inc.

I've setup my submit_check_result script to append the output to a file rather than pipe it to send_nsca. Example: >> /usr/local/nagios/var/ocsp-test.log instead of: | /usr/local/nagios/bin/send_nsca etc... After doing this, I can confirm that Nagios is obsessing over the service checks as documented in the distributed monitoring docs. So, it appears that the issue is specifically with send_nsca. I'm going to keep digging in on it. One thing that I can tell you is if I run my submit_check_result script (copied from the docs) from the command line, everything goes perfectly. But if nagios runs it, it seems to be broken. Thanks, Robert S.

Thanks in advance. Nagios is not a very good collector/archiver/analyzer for time-series data. That is why most sane people use another tool, like RRD, which is excellent for time-series data. Cricket is one of the front-ends for RRD, which happens to have the monitor thresholds functionality built-in. Why try to re-invent the wheel? Not to mention the fact that you'd have to deal with the criteria of when the threshold is met. Do you really want to generate an alert when an interface hits 90% for only one 5-minute interval, then goes back down to 10% for the next one? Data is very bursty by nature, so you'd generate a lot of alerts. You need to read the link that I sent; there are about a billion and a half options for threshold criteria that have already been thought out. It would take many many many lines of code to reproduce that which has already been designed into Cricket. It would not be horribly difficult for a competent systems integrator to configure Cricket to send external commands to Nagios based on the monitor thresholds. Nagios is much better at dealing with notification logic than Cricket, of course, so that would be the way to go. -- Mike McClure, CCIE # 5125, CISSP # 30232 PNE Services, Inc. - http://www.pneservices.com mmcclure at pneservices.com mobile: 913-636-5590 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SlickEdit Inc.

"2>/dev/null" ?on the end of the command line, the result was a broken pipe and netsaint cannot go over, freezing all the netsaint process. 2)Remember to set permission RW on serial (or any other device like irda) device to user netsaint (or process owner). This to permit Read Write on device attached to gsm cel. There are differently method to do this based on type of unix you own. You must find this on yourself. 3)Now you must configure gnokii in order to use lock files (to avoid conflict with other devices that use serial/usb). On gnokii/etc directory un can find a file called gnokiirc. Make sure that contain this: port = /dev/ (device attached to gsm) model = (the model number of your nokia gsm like 6210) connection = serial (or you connection to gsm cel. like irda, ecc.) use_locking = yes Now you are ready to receive sms about notification of netsaint.

I will take this information and post it on http://demo.square-box.com under a new tab called web servers. Obviously I have done the Apache 1.3.26 config I'm running under but I think the community would benefit from other web server config's being available. Either mail them directly to me at my email below or post them to the list and I'll get them that way. If your really feeling kind you could also flesh out some notes on your particular web servers authentication mechanisms. Now that would save me some reading :) Cheers Tom Welsh twelsh at square-box.com ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SlickEdit Inc.

The easiest way to do this with Nagios/NetSaint is to use the check_mrtg plugin. run mrtg to gather (and graph) the b/w, then use the Nagios to alert on it. You can also use cricket to do that, but if you've never setup cricket before it can look very daunting. --On Thursday, February 20, 2003 10:48 AM +0530 Atul Shrivastava wrote: > > Hello All, > > I want to generate alerts for Bandwidth Utilization if it goes beyond 90 > % for router interface.

I have only been on the internet for just under 10 years now. It must have been before that time that this approach had actually had a chance for success? As far as my memory goes, "if everything else fails: read the manual" has been the way. And no, I'm not excluding myself.

First, add this line to serviceedit.php at line 58 (before the $objectid= line). $saveobject['contact_groups'] = @implode(",",$saveobject['contact_groups']); Then, fix the template lines in hosts.cfg and services.cfg that say: name generic-service ; blah blah blah Get rid of everything after the word 'generic-service' nagat processes it as part of the name. Then, I imported the configs. Ignore the "No nagios.cfg data found" error. After you click to import them, go back into the importer screen and you'll see the list of other files to import. What I had to do to get them to import correctly was to import one single file at a time, and NOT check off more than one. ---------------------------------- E-Mail: ah43 at httpsite.com Date: 20-Feb-2003 Time: 12:32:00 This message was sent by XFMail ---------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SlickEdit Inc.

Apache runs under user 'apache'. Nagios is running under user 'nagios'. However, unless I do not give world readable permissions to /usr/local/nagios/etc I cannot access the web interface for Nagios. If I give world readable permission to /usr/local/nagios/etc, then users on the system can view the SNMP RO community in the services.cfg or checkcommands.cfg file. So, how do I go about not allowing my users to be able to read the /usr/local/nagios/etc directory? I had disabled suExec on the httpd server for Cricket to run, but I am willing to give up cricket and enable suEexec. Reading the Apache suExec documentation, it looks like suExec works with v2.0 of Apache and the virtual host directive, neither of which I am using. Also, it seems that suExec will work if you append the ~ but when I set an alias as /~nagios /usr/local/nagios/share I get permission denied reading ~nagios/etc/htpasswd file. (Which means suExec is not working?) Paste from httpd.conf: ScriptAlias /nagios/cgi-bin /usr/local/nagios/sbin/ AllowOverride AuthConfig Options ExecCGI Order allow,deny Allow from all Alias /nagios/ /usr/local/nagios/share/ AllowOverride AuthConfig Options None Order allow,deny Allow from all I also tried: Alias /~nagios/ /usr/local/nagios/share/ AllowOverride AuthConfig Options None Order allow,deny Allow from all Thank you... -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I know that nagios was sending out more then one notification before. (believe it was set to ever two hours.) but now only one notification is ever sent out. Below are the hosts, services,hostgroup, and nagios config files pertaining to the host. I'm really stuck, and may rebuild the box from scratch if I can't figure this out. The config's are attached. One note, I removed the list of host's from the hosts.cfg file, but they all use the same template, so nothing is different. Thanks for your help.

If the Information Store is up and running and the temp folder where OWA temp files are stored has space the user will be able to access their mailbox and open messages. It may be easier to use the nt plugin for nagios to monitor drive space for the drive with the OWA temp folder and monitor the Information Store service.

If the Information Store is up and running and the temp folder where OWA temp files are stored has space the user will be able to access their mailbox and open messages. It may be easier to use the nt plugin for nagios to monitor drive space for the drive with the OWA temp folder and monitor the Information Store service. I am just beginning with Nagios, so I have not done it yet, but hopefully will have time within the next week or two.

Message-ID: Hi all, Just wanted to let you know I seem to have found a little problem with the way the GD libs install: (I installed the GD libs, JPEG and PNG libs before installing Nagios, btw) For a while now I haven't been able to access the visually-oriented reports and the status maps. I was ignoring the problem because I had more pressing concerns, but finally decided to do something about it. Checked the httpd logs, and low and behold: everything installed in /usr/lib except GD, which installed in /usr/local/lib. This was apparently why Nagios couldn't find it. Just copied them over and it worked. FYI. :) -Jarett ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SlickEdit Inc. Develop an edge.

Galloway Sent: Wednesday, February 19, 2003 10:47 PM To: 'Burnson, Richard'; 'nagios-users' Subject: RE: [Nagios-users] Obsessing over Obsessing... -- ocsp_command is running -- send_nsca is broken Hello everyone, I have some new information to add to this. I've setup my submit_check_result script to append the output to a file rather than pipe it to send_nsca. Example: >> /usr/local/nagios/var/ocsp-test.log instead of: | /usr/local/nagios/bin/send_nsca etc... After doing this, I can confirm that Nagios is obsessing over the service checks as documented in the distributed monitoring docs. So, it appears that the issue is specifically with send_nsca. I'm going to keep digging in on it. One thing that I can tell you is if I run my submit_check_result script (copied from the docs) from the command line, everything goes perfectly. But if nagios runs it, it seems to be broken. Thanks, Robert S.

I imagine you meant to make the final comma a period, thus: check_load_ssh!5.00,5.05,5.50!9.00,9.10,9.50 Second, you *might* want to lower the last two values, eg: check_load_ssh!5.00,5.05,5.50!10.00,9.00,8.00 Of course, this would depend on whether your system is running pretty smoothly with rare upward spikes, or whether it's running smoothly with rare downward troughs. To help you make the decision, can you run "sar -q" and get an idea of whether it loses its mind slowly, or whether it happens pretty quickly? Lastly, is the root cause of your system losing its mind out of your control?

However, when there is a service issue, the escalations section requires me to do a specific service escalation for each service. I guess what I need it to do, is check for a service escalation, if it doesn't exist, look for a host escalation, if it doesn't exist, look for a hostgroup escalation, if that doesn't exist, use the contact-groups as defined in the service. Is there anyway to have Nagios work with this behaviour? Or is it something someone has to hack into the source code?

register_globals is off. This means you have PHP 4.2 or higher. Nagat was initially made with 4.0.6 and

Well, I think you'll have a hard time finding a bigger buzz word than SLA. What I do is dump all availability data into a MySQL database. This can then be used through ODBC to create nice graphs and tables from Access, Excel,... Prerequisites: * MySQL. * A database called "reporting" with two tables: "hosts_last_month" and "services_last_month". They can be empty. * A GNU date. * Bash (might work with Bourne as well, didn't test). You have to replace "guest" in the script by a username that has access on your Nagios cgi's. I launch it every first day of the month from cron. It updates the tables hosts_last_month and services_last_month. It keeps copies of all previous months in the format hosts_year_month and services_year_month. Here is the code: #!/bin/sh year=`date --date="last month" +%Y` month=`date --date="last month" "+%m"` if [ "$month" -eq "1" -o "$month" -eq "3" -o "$month" -eq "5" -o "$month" -eq "7" -o "$month" -eq "8" -o "$month" -eq "10" -o "$month" -eq "12" ] ; then enddate="31"; elif [ "$month" -eq "2" ]; then if [ "$year" -eq "2004" -o "$year" -eq 2008 ]; then enddate="29"; else enddate="28"; fi else
