Hi!
 
Just want to ask for help regarding nagios service comments. I was able to
activate (made it work well) nagios with mysql and able to add/delete to
nagios database. My problem is the comment data is not displayed on the web.
What could be the problem? I already set the authentication in cgi.
 
Regards,
 
LAT

If you have SNMP on the host in question, you can just use check_snmp. I
think most implementations provide this in their MIB. Certainly net-snmp
does.

This solution has the advantage of being portable.

I think this is the hostinfo.pl which you mention:

http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/xedtemplate.html
define hostextinfo{
	host_name	netware1
	notes_url	=
http://webserver.localhost.localdomain/hostinfo.pl?host=3Dnetware1

	statusmap_image	novell40.gd2
	2d_coords	100,250
	3d_coords	100.0,50.0,75.0
	}
The example notes_url link points to a hostinfo.pl script.  This link =
can actually be to any CGI, perl script (ie hostinfo.pl), or static HTML =
page, but you have to make it yourself.  The link can also be to a =
ticketing system, intranet page, or anything else.

Subject: [Nagios-users] ocsp_command not working?


  Hi,


  Playing around with nagios 1.1 I tried to set up a distributed
  nagios host using the nsca addon. I configured the distributed
  nagios host according to he manual, setting
  obsess_over_services=1
  ocsp_command=submit_check_result
  When calling submit_check_result manually (with the specific
  arguments) the info is send to the nagios central host just
  fine. Yet that distributed nagios host never bothers to use
  the submit_check_result script (updates are done by nagios;
  at least the status.log is updated regularly).
  I have read that other people are using this and it works, so
  obviously I overlooked something. Can someone please assist?

  Thanky in advance,


                                               Chris Kronberg.

Subject: [Nagios-users] Service Escalations and notification_interval

Hi,

I've written a couple of programs - one that does notification via MSN, and
one via SMS.

I used the following the service-escalation configuration on a service:

define serviceescalation {
 host_name                 myhost
 service_description       myservice
 first_notification        1
 last_notification         0
 contact_groups            admins-msn
 notification_interval     1
}

define serviceescalation {
 host_name                 myhost
 service_description       myservice
 first_notification        1
 last_notification         0
 contact_groups            admins-sms
 notification_interval     120
}

Now I kinda wish that I'd read the documentation a little more carefully ;)
It was meant to notify the admins via MSN regulary, but only send out a
notification via SMS once every two hours. But of course, what actually
happens is that it uses the smallest notification_interval for both the
contact-groups. (Just as well I was only testing this to my phone!).

So I have two questions:

a) Is it possible to define two, overlapping, service escalations for one
service, with different notification_intervalS? Or will I have to duplicate
the service defination?

b) Why is it that the notifcations occured once every five minutes, not once
every minute as the notification_interval suggests? Is this a multiplier of
some other value? A look at services.cfg suggests it's
'notification_interval x normal_check_interval' since normal_check_interval
is the only property with a value of five.

Ah.....what I actually did was compile nagios/nagios-plugins on my sparc/=

And when I ported them to my sparc box it said the same...but that was =
because I had the permissions wrong, I changed those and it worked =

Doh!!! very loudly

But many thanks for your help it is much appreciated.

The reason it happens every five minutes is because notifications don't =
occur unless a service check is performed. Therefore, nothing has =
changed to kick off a notification until the check is performed.

You asked if you could have different notification intervals for the =
same service. I think you can if you use host group notifications and =
have the service belong to two hostgroups.

Hope this helps, I am struggling with controlling notifications right =
now myself.

Thanks the reply,

I understand what you are saying about the notifications not occuring unless
a service check is preformed, but the retry_check_interval is 1.

The service templateit is based on is:

defineservice {
name                            standard-service
use                             generic-service
register                        0;
is_volatile                     0
check_period                    24x7
max_check_attempts              3
normal_check_interval           5
retry_check_interval            1
notification_interval           120
notification_period             24x7
notification_options            w,u,c,r
}

Surely that means that it will check the service once a minute once it is
critical? Unless the notification_interval is based on the
normal_check_interval?

I'll look into trying the hostgroup escalations for the escalation problem,
but it doesn't seem the most optimal solution, just a workaround.

Hi all,

When I try to compile Nagios 1.1, I got an error message when I "make all"

I am installing Nagios on Redhat 7.1 with gd 1.8.4

Is there any clue on that?

Hi folks,

I'm looking for an easy way to pull a quick summary from Nagios.
I want to be able to SMS our server and get it to spit back
a quick overview - i.e. there's nothing wrong, or there are 5
hosts down and 6 service outages etc.

Has anyone done this already?

Cheers,

John.

HI all,

Just wondering if anyone has experience with Nagios using a database backend
and if there are really any benefits to it.  I'm considering changing over
my three nagios boxes but would like to know if the support will be there in
the future releases and if it's really worth it!

TIA,

Database support will be dropped in version 2.0.

For that reason, you probably don't want to start using it now...

This statement is not entirely true...the text says and always
has...that db support MAY be dropped in version 3.0, not 2.0 as many
relay here.

Also if one would read further...it says:
" Please note that I do not plan on yanking the current DB support out
of Nagio unless it can be done in a better way using the event broker
daemon (which should appear in 2.x). So what that means is there should
be DB integration in some manner or another - its not completely
disappearing."

Ethan and others go to a lot of trouble to provide this information to
us, please let us read and relay ACCURATE information to others.

2 cents

I have seen other posts mentioning missing CGI files (trends.cgi and

I compiled Nagios 1.1, I no longer had the files.  Here is what I did to
make the repair.

Gilbert T. Gutierrez, Jr.

1. I made all of the files with 'make'
2. Edited the file cgi/Makefile at the line beginning 'CGIS=' adding the 2
CGI's to the list of CGI's to compile.
