Passive service-checks

[Harper Mann]

Hi Jose,

The Email message below looks like an Active check.  Does the check have a
big red "P" for Passive Check by it in "Service Detail"?  Is the trap shown
in the Nagios event log?  It likely is if the trap message is showing up in
the service detail.  The Service Detail should not show a plugin timeout as
it's not supposed to be calling a plugin.

Can you post the service definition with any template parents and the
trap_handler? 

Regards,

- Harper

Hi

I'm trying to do the same thing  with Nagios and SNMP Traps, but nobody
gave me the right direction on how to start to work on it.

thanks very much for the help.

regards

Jose Dragone


P.S.:
    If I can set the traps inside my intranet, I 'll let you know.
    If not , perhaps I 'm going to get the same kind of errors , so we
could work on that further as you could up to now.

I have sent a mail about this earlier with no resonse, so I try again...

I have set up nagios to receive snmp-traps via passive service-checks.
The traps come in to nagios ok, but no notifications are sent out. The
logfile says that a trap is received, the trap shows up in the
serviceview in nagios, but no notifications. The only notification i
have received is this :

***** Nagios  *****

Notification Type: PROBLEM

Service: TRAP
Host: NetLink II AU #2
Address: 10.0.48.10
State: CRITICAL

Date/Time: Tue Sept 14 22:47:52 CEST 2004

Additional Info:

CRITICAL - Plugin timed out after 10 seconds
--------------------------------------------------------
Could this explain why notifications for passive checks isn't sent ?

Does anybody know why this is sent ??
