The GPL explicitly states that such things must be allowed (it's a freedom). Deviations from this requires addendums to the GPL for the package itself. Nagios has no such addendums, and any and all such addendums violates the GPL, making a whole bunch of legalese necessary to make other parts of the GPL apply. What you cannot do is to make changes to the sourcecode, sell the altered version and not make the changed sources available through the same distribution media as the non-source package. HTML, being a non-compiled visrep-language is always in source-code form so this doesn't apply. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.ericsson at op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Lead Developer ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Yahoo.

Yes, you can change anything you want. However you must provide the changes to your customer (as well as the original code etc.) either on your own or at the customer's request without significant additional costs.

You may know me as the creator of Fruity, a popular nagios configuration tool (http://fruity.sf.net). Well, because Fruity is growing, and the backbone of the current import utility uses the archaic naupy tool, I now need to write a new configuration file parser to import more attributes found in nagios configuration files. Since configuration files differ greatly across different people's installations, I'm asking for people's configuration files. If you'd like, go ahead and change address lines or any other specific identification tags in there so as not to give any network information away. The big part is in the design of the file and the tricks everyone uses. This will help Fruity and other tools obtain a strong parser that can import configuration data effectively. Thanks!

I just had a case (checkpoint firewall running on solaris 8) where the box was unbearably slow ( a firewall rule that triggered too many packets or somesuch), while the output from the 'check_load' monitor (which uses the output from uptime) was showing quite normal results. however, we did see afterwards on our mrtg monitoring that the % user time spent by the cpu was abnormally high. Are some of you relying solely on the check_load monitor, or are you using other checks as well, and if so, which ones ? thanks, Tom. ___________________________________________________________ How much free photo storage do you get?

Message-ID: Thank you for your suggestion; unfortunately, it requires that additional software be installed on a Windows machine in order to function. The plugin calls a .NET-enabled webserver, where a series of specially-crafted asp / vb scripts (included with the plugin) are located. The .NET webserver then performs the queries on behalf of the plugin, and returns the results. So while it does not require a client to be installed on each machine, it does require additional software to be installed on a system which is not the Nagios box. Unfortunately, this doesn't work for me either. I basically cannot modify any machine except the Nagios box. Good idea, though!

Message-ID: Modifying check_snmp_storage.pl was, of course, my first instinct as well. Unfortunately, it is apparently easier said than done. To explain; A quick reference at mibDepot.com for storage-related items reveals the hrStorage object group, which is exactly where one would expect to find storage-related items. Items of note include the hrStorageSize and hrStorageUsed tabs. So far so good, as these are the key items that check_snmp_storage.pl uses to poll for data. Here's where the problem lies, however. An snmpwalk of a number of Windows machines in-house reveals hrStorage entries for the physical hard disks, as well as for virtual memory - but not for physical memory. Another interesting item is the hrMemorySize scalar, which does in fact report the total size of the physical memory, but does not appear to have a "usage" counterpart anywhere. Thus, determining the total amount of RAM is easy, but figuring out how much of that is being used - that's the kicker. Finally, the hrStorageRam object, while vaguely tantalising, does not appear at all during an snmpwalk of any of the target machines.. thus it remains a mystery entirely.

The section titled "Configuring Things On The Nagios Host" in the README and the sample nrpe.cfg are pretty straightforward. If you have difficulties understanding particular activities you can always search google or ask here. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Yahoo.

Just what isn't clear from the (somewhat limited) docs? The daemon on a remote note runs the nrpe daemon, the client runs the client with a call to the demon at the remote host, remote daemon carries out a check_* command, returns it to the calling client. All can be guarded with host/client access. Supposedly with SSL, but that last bit surpasses my understanding (it don't work, according to Ethereal, but the rest does). Client m/c has to have all the check_* modules in the default places, with /usr/local/nagios/etc determining where that is. Much configuration, but only one config per remote node and muc pleasure :) > Or I guess, I just want to know exactly what has to be installed > where for me to be able to use the NRPE agent. > i.e. > > 1) NRPE Agent gets installed on the remote server > 2) > 3) > 4) Restart the Nagios process and it's done. > etc... > > Just something like that is really what is needed, the configuration > details I'm sure > I could figure out.

Hmmm ... - how did I ever get to know that ... services.cfg? Calling check_command? O.k., the command has first to be entered into check_command, after that then into services.cfg. In all of the above, I've found nagiosQL (web interface) an invaluable tool, but not for defining command infrastructure. Without a test machine I'd obviously never hat been to implement anything. --Tonni -- mail: tonye at billy.demon.nl http://www.billy.demon.nl Eg er bergenser og, eg, men, Trondheims-ordf?rer Marvin Wiseth: ?Bergenserne er flinke til ? gj?re mye ut av lite?

One possibility to check hosts behind a firewall, is to set up a dedicated Nagios behind this firewall, and use nsca to send to check results to your central Nagios. But the check_ssh thing should work, too. Are you using check_ssh in your host.cfg for check_host_alive? Maybe it's a IDS on your Firewall, that blocks the IP of your Nagios server, when there are to many connections?

Yes, in services.cfg, possibly with extra parameters when needed. All of this is extensively documented and grepping and lessing around in the original install config directories will get you very far - it's how I learned. --Tonni -- mail: tonye at billy.demon.nl http://www.billy.demon.nl ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Yahoo.

However, there are some slight security risks to your monitored servers if somebody can become nagios on your monitoring server. Another solution is NSCA. For that to work you'll have to install nagios on a server behind the firewall and it uses NSCA to submit passive checks to your monitoring server. -- Paul Allen Softflare Support ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Yahoo.

Is Nagios suitable to any degree? Message-ID: <24087666.1117711295809.JavaMail.dynamo@tetsuro.loopm.com> Hi, I'm new to Nagios and currently evaluating it's suitability for my professional needs. I have searched the internet for monitoring tools, but almost everything I can find seems to belong to the "simple yet powerful" category. I need something better. I have been using a heavily extended Big Brother monitoring system and it is not flexible and powerfull enough. Nagios might do. I don't know. I don't know how well Nagios works with MIBs and SNMP traps or whether it supports compound events etc. The documentation is extensive, but it's hard to find the relevant information. Thus I need to ask you. Sorry for a long email... What I need to monitor: ------------------------------------------------------ 1) NETWORK I need to monitor hundreds of Juniper/Cisco/Microsoft/other devices including routers, switches, firewalls, vpn gateways, dsl/isdn, dns-servers, dhcp-servers and uninterruptible power supplies using SNMP. I need to know about connectivity, reboots, uptime, cpu load, memory, bandwidth utilization (octets/time and % of max), traffic distribution *changes* (by protocol, by port), up/down interfaces and VPN tunnels, routing *changes* and alarms (traps) and UPS battery and electricity status. 2) HOSTS I need to monitor server parameters including connectivity, reboots, uptime, cpu load, memory, swapping, disk I/O, diskspace and services 3) APPLICATIONS Including databases (deadlocks, logs, free space...) and everything one could find in a modern big enterprises data center. 4) SERVICE LEVEL I also want to monitor the point-to-point bandwidth and response time (ping roundtrip, http response, general tcp connect, database connections). 5) BUSINESS PROCESSES (ABSTRACTION LAYER) I want some basic root cause analysis capability (ie. unreachable vs. down) and an abstraction layer between polls/traps and alerts. I want to define compound events that happen when several events coincide. Examples: Disk is more than 90% full more than 10 minutes. Primary network connection has been lost for more than 10 minutes or both the primary and backup connections have been down more than three minutes. Event A and B happened, but not C, and all this has lasted for more than 10 minutes and it is not sunday between 1am and 2am. These rules/scripts/compound events are important for my monitoring needs. I need to monitor a big enterprise with several data centers, complicated network topology and business systems comprising of several servers working together. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Plus... All this collected or deducted data should be stored in an event database and used for history reports, snapshot reports, service level reports, trends/graphics,... everything. Naturally it needs a web user interface with at least two user levels (admin, monitor) and several views (network view, business view...). Flexibility and manageability are more important than instant ease of use. These requirements rule out about 100% of the monitoring tools I have found. Please help. I'm lost. This would be used as a professional monitoring tool. It's a day job. Usually 5 x 8hrs, so I don't need anything "simple yet powerfull". It can also cost a bit. It can be hard to learn - no problem. So, do I have any other choice than HP OpenView or Tivoli Enterprise Console? What can nagios do for me?

Hello Daniel, you can query W2K3 Server for physical memory. There is a table of storage entries (disks, virtual memory, physical memory) in the host resource MIB: 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.2.index hrStorageType 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.3.index hrStorageDesc 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.4.index hrStorageAllocUnits 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.5.index hrStorageSize 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.index hrStorageUsed with the type 25.2.1.2 type = physical mem for physical memory. You have to search for "25.2.1.2" in the "Type" field to get the index. Then you have to query "AllocUnits", "Size" and "Used" for this index and multiply "AllocUnits" and "Size" to get the physical memory size (IIRC in Bytes). By multiply "AllocUnits" and "Used" you get the used physical memory (IIRC in Bytes). This method unfortunately does not work for W2K. -vol -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It can be hard to learn - no problem. So, do I have any other choice than HP OpenView or Tivoli Enterprise Console? What can nagios do for me? Well, looking at your needs and your job description (and budget) I'd say it like this: Nagios can provide an extensive framework for your higher-level needs and supply almost all of the basic functionality. Now, I'm not billing you as a consultant :-) but after such a short description I'd say that given the above it should be possible to implement something that offers everything you need. You will need to spend some time studying nagios, discussing with the developers, and doing some scripting yourself. You will need to set up a number of monitoring hosts to distribute the workload (depending, of course, on the temporal detail you need). You will need - assuming you work alone - about two months for the basic monitoring and load distribution, and after that comes the setup of compound events and the sort of reporting you need. You will need a mangement that understands that its requests need funding, time, and discussion. In the end, you will have done a lot of the necessary work yourself, but you will have something that fits to your business, that was most probably less expensive in license costs and does not require more support than something commercial. And, even better, you will have given some valuable experiences and work to all Nagios users :-) To sum up - I think you can use nagios. Try it with one testing machine and set up some monitoring. Implement reports, notifications, and distributed monitoring in small steps. Spend the necessary time and money. Read and use the mailing lists. After some relatively short time you can decide yourself.

For most of these categories there are best-of-breed application. For host and network fault monitoring - Nagios For link traffic/app response times - MRTG/Cricket/Cacti with alerts to Nagios For link ping response times - SmokePing For protocol distribution - Netflow from routers/ntop and FlowScan For routing changes - custom plugin that looks at nexthop for specific routes For router config management - RANCID - could probably define an alert/trap to feed into Nagios For business process abstraction - service dependencies in Nagios is great - it is pretty close to HPOV's service manager in design functions You will probabaly want to write you own web interface to integrate the various data sets. -- -sg ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Yahoo.

Each host or service can have multiple independent contacts that can be notified 24 hours a day or only during certain timeperiods (on a per-contact basis). Notification escalations can be used to escalate an issue if it hasn't been worked by the primary contact, etc. I'm not sure what you mean by severity but the notification command can be any script or program you like so you can easily extend the functionality of that feature to your hearts content. > so it was easy to specify downtimes for a group of hosts or one host > depending on your needs. Is there any such thing for nagios? I could You can easily schedule downtime for services, hosts and/or hostgroups (and probably servicegroups in 2.0) through the web interface. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Yahoo.

Well, I don't know that script by heart... basically, you will have to modify it so it fits to your installation. I guess what is needed is the path of Ngios' command file (the pipe in the rw directory...), so you go looking for it in Nagios' main configuration file.

Note the plugin is called check_disk, the command_name is called check_local_disk. check_disk can only check disks on the system that it is running. To check local disks on remote systems, you have to execute the plugin on the remote system.

I don't know of a simple way to do this in Nagios w/o creating a separate contact. In Big Brother it would have been easier. If all my printers had a similar name prefix, I could just say "print*:conn:" (or something like that - don't remember the syntax exactly) and specify that those events should go to email. Thanks!

I have tried Xavier Dusart?s check_mem_2k.pl plugin, as well as Manubulon?s check_snmp_storage.pl. Dusart?s plugin fails entirely, while Manubulon?s only appears to pull out the virtual memory, not the physical RAM. What makes this tricky (I suppose), is that I cannot install any agents on the Windows servers; this means no NSClient or any such thing. Does anybody have any ideas? Hello Daniel, you can query W2K3 Server for physical memory. There is a table of storage entries (disks, virtual memory, physical memory) in the host resource MIB: 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.2.index hrStorageType 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.3.index hrStorageDesc 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.4.index hrStorageAllocUnits 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.5.index hrStorageSize 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.index hrStorageUsed with the type 25.2.1.2 type = physical mem for physical memory. You have to search for "25.2.1.2" in the "Type" field to get the index.

There's two ways that I do it, depending on the situation. If it's an item that only needs to be polled every 5 minutes or less, I let Cacti do the polling, and then use the check_rrd plugin (google should turn it up) to check the values Cacti gets and alert based on those values. If I need polling more often than every 5 minutes, I do the polling in Nagios and uses Nagiostat to create the RRD and then use Cacti to display graphs from the RRD files created by Nagiostat.

Thankfully I can use Cacti's polling interval, as this is only for scenarios where I can go to my telco vendor and have them fix the minor problem before it becomes a major problem, so it doesn't have to be immediate, just before the other PVC croaks and puts us up the proverbial creek.

Message-ID: Hi all, I am wondering if there is a way to send a single alert to one contact, but multiple alerts to another. To explain further; If "service A" goes critical it will generate alerts to the associated contact based on the "notification_interval" setting. No problem there - that's normal operation. What I'd also like is to have a single alert sent out to a pager gateway as well. I was thinking that I could define a service escalation for "service A", with both "first_notification" and "last_notification" set to 1, so that when the alert is triggered, it will send out one alert to the pager, and then the escalation is done. What I'm not sure about is whether it will default back to the normal alerting method (non-escalated) after that single iteration. Or, is there another way?

Message-ID: Yes I made work with Netsaint / cricket.sh I then made at total new installatin with Nagios and newer got to that part again. I now uses SNMP to get all kind of status from our servers. I ask quite often - every 5 -10 minutes. Diskspace every hour The problem with getting these traps is if they don't get to your NagiosBOX - then you don't have any value. That is whay I like to ask for values via snmp and put some retry value in the service.cfg. Also if you get a value that says something failed - but don't get anothe value saying I'm OK - then the service windows tell you that there is an error but the error is actually gone. So you have to check both ways to be sure. The good thing about traps is that you get tha value change when it happens. So you don't have to ask for every 5-10 minutes. The best whay could be a combination of both You can make some fantastic shell script-plugins to handle all kind of snmpvalues. I ask for cpu's , diskspace left on the servers, deadmails, mailwaiitng, antivrus-dat-files age, cluster-queue, all kind of tasks on the servers, uptime if someone or if the system self booted....

I've got syslog-ng set up to pipe each log stream to a separate file, which helps to keep things nice and segregated; this, of course, also means that I don't have to worry about writing match strings with the server name, since each server has it's own file. Daniel Maher System Engineer ACE TECHNOLOGY INC. -----Original Message----- From: nagios-users-admin at lists.sourceforge.net [mailto:nagios-users-admin at lists.sourceforge.net] On Behalf Of Brian Huffman Sent: June 2, 2005 4:25 PM To: nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] Anyone using syslog-ng / sec for host log monitoring? If so, are you running sec locally for each host or are you using syslog-ng to consolidate all logs on one central host and then running sec there? I am currently consolidating all syslogs on one server (my nagios server) and then using sec to parse all messages as they come in. I'm finding that it's a little trickier to write the match strings when you have to take the server name into account.

The return codes must be right for OK, Warning, Critical and so on 2. The Output that the plugins gives back to nagios are limited to one line.

The recursive dns server returns no error... Create a command which has your non-recursive server look up a host in a zone for which it is responsible (e.g. NOT www.yahoo.com) and use that command in the service that you use to monitor that server. > I'm using www.google.co.ke as the host (-H). > > What could be the problem?

Not in daemon mode, the file is created but the service check are not executed. I make a another binary whithout the caching option and I get the same problem. I tried to compile nagios on an other machine, the problem is still here. The second problem is about service notfications which are not sent. Hosts notifications works fine but nagios is not generating any notification for services. I check my configuration twice and its ok. I can that some of you have the same problem. I'm running nagios 2.0b3 on a debian woddy system. Can someone help me ? Thanks. Regards Florent -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Nagios itself saves everything in a file. Database support as known as in 1.2 is been dropped, but still possible. I'm using perfparse to store the results in an mysql db...though perfparse isn't very good for long time storage, because there is no "real" database schema... my database is about 30GB after 6 Months, with only Binary Data saved (~200hosts and 2400 services with average Interval of 3min) > thaks for all. > Anxo.

Message-ID: Well, I can't speak to your configuration (i.e. sec), but what worked for me was just writing a little script (as a plugin) to check the logs for whatever given pattern. Basically, I pass two variables to the script from the plugin definition: the target log file (i.e. host), and the pattern I'm interested in, such as "[CRITICAL] Backup Exec failed!" (or whatever), via a simple regex. The script maintains a tiny flat-file with the names of the logs it has read, and the last byte it read from them. It then reads the log from the next character, looking for the pattern. It then returns the appropriate error code and message, updates the flat-file, and that's that. I'm sure I could have used check_log, but at the time, I was pretty new to Nagios, and I didn't know it existed. :P Daniel Maher System Engineer ACE TECHNOLOGY INC. -----Original Message----- From: Brian Huffman [mailto:bhuffman at incyte.com] Sent: June 3, 2005 9:09 AM To: Daniel maher; nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net Subject: RE: [Nagios-users] Anyone using syslog-ng / sec for host log monitoring? What do you use to do the actual filtering / pattern matching? Currently I have syslog-ng running on my nagios box but with two destinations: 1 file per machine and then one stream which I pipe to sec. This works, but makes it tricky to maintain a configuration file for sec, which takes into account differences in each server.

I've currently got a site set up where numerous Windows and Linux machines are reporting to the Nagios box, which is running syslog-ng. I've got syslog-ng set up to pipe each log stream to a separate file, which helps to keep things nice and segregated; this, of course, also means that I don't have to worry about writing match strings with the server name, since each server has it's own file.

If so, are you running sec locally for each host or are you using syslog-ng to consolidate all logs on one central host and then running sec there? I am currently consolidating all syslogs on one server (my nagios server) and then using sec to parse all messages as they come in. I'm finding that it's a little trickier to write the match strings when you have to take the server name into account.

It's wherever you told it to be in nagios.cfg. It's the first directive in the nagios.cfg documentation at http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/configmain.html#log_file -- "Format: log_file= Example: log_file=/usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.log This variable specifies where Nagios should create its main log file. This should be the first variable that you define in your configuration file, as Nagios will try to write errors that it finds in the rest of your configuration data to this file. If you have log rotation enabled, this file will automatically be rotated every hour, day, week, or month." ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Yahoo.

Any hints ? I don't use escalations but the warning above and the very explicit text at http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/notifications.html#filters (Service and Host Filters) explains your problem -- "Note: Notifications about host or service recoveries are only sent out if a notification was sent out for the original problem. It doesn't make sense to get a recovery notification for something you never knew was a problem." If you don't want the outage notifications to go out you'll need to edit your sms notify script to ignore them. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Yahoo.

I've never seen nagios fail in this way but I've also never seen anyone try to run with two not-so-compatible command line flags (-d and -v). You should test your config with -v first, then if everything checks out, run with -d -- /path/to/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg /path/to/nagios -d /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Yahoo.

Nagios is primarily a service monitor. Hosts without associated service definitions will _never_ be checked. Hosts with service definitions will only be checked when a service on that host fails (they'll say 'assumed to be up' otherwise). The services themselves will be checked according to their normal_check_interval. win_box will always remain in a PENDING state with your current configuration. Are the services on your other host being checked? If no, please post the host, service and command definitions in question as well as nagios version and plugins version. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.

Yup I realized that. I think there was a similar thread on the archives where someone mentioned that Nagios doesn't check host without services. So I defined 5 services on the localhost. But it was always in Pending state. Also there was another suggestion to go ahead and disable all service checks and then reenable them through the interface. That didn't work either. > Are the services on your other > host being checked?

The MIB table with 2 indexes. One of the indexes is PID (process ID which changes with each run of the process being monitored). The OID will contain PID. Therefore, I need to know all the PIDs given the value of a second index (whose value does not change). Since Nagios cannot provide that function, do you have any other suggestions to achieve the same function? I can use some kind of snmpwalk command/tool easily on managed node. But it will be better if we can do that on the client (Nagios) node itself. Thanks Steve ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.

I have no issues with getting Nagios set up for Linux and Solaris, but Irix is presenting a problem. Regarding check by ssh, the ssh-agent isn't working with the Nagios user. I can only assume that's because the Nagios daemon doesn't have a logon account on the monitoring box. After su from root to Nagios, I start the ssh-agent, then when I attempt to add a key, I get the error "Could not open a connection to your authentication agent." I've looked through the documentation, but didn't see any detailed info about check_by_ssh changes. Any help here would be appreciated.

I've just setup my first nagios installation using the nagios-text package from Debian testing. The web interface is up and appears to be running correctly. I've defined a single host with a single service that uses check_http to see if the Apache instance on 192.168.50.10 is still running. However the webinterface claims that the http plugin is timing out. "CRITICAL - Socket timeout after 10 seconds". Running the plugin as the nagios user I get the following. nagios at omega-alpha:/home/james$ /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_http 192.168.50.10 HTTP OK HTTP/1.1 200 OK - 1901 bytes in 0.003 seconds |time=0.002917s;;;0.000000 size=1901B;;;0 So I'm not sure why it's not working correctly. Any ideas? I've not been able to find anything helpful on the web or in the documentation.

Message-ID: Hello all, I am wondering if there is a way to send a single alert to one contact, but multiple alerts to another. To explain further; If "service A" goes critical it will generate alerts to the associated contact based on the "notification_interval" setting. No problem there - that's normal operation. What I'd also like is to have a single alert sent out to a pager gateway as well. I was thinking that I could define a service escalation for "service A", with both "first_notification" and "last_notification" set to 1, so that when the alert is triggered, it will send out one alert to the pager, and then the escalation is done. What I'm not sure about is whether it will default back to the normal alerting method (non-escalated) after that single iteration. Or, is there another way? p.s.

I am presuming that when you say they are 'disabled' that you do not mean that active_checks_enabled is set to 0 and are truly talking about notifications only. If you have retention enabled -- http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/xodtemplate.html "Retention Notes It is important to point out that several directives in host and service definitions may not be picked up by Nagios when you change them. Host and service directives that can exhibit this behavior are marked with an asterisk (*). The reason for this behavior is due to the fact that Nagios chooses to honor values stored in the state retention file over values found in the config files, assuming you have state retention enabled on a program-wide basis. One way to get around this problem is to disable the retention of non-status information using the retain_nonstatus_information directive in the host and service definitions. Disabling this directive will cause Nagios to take the initial values for these directives from your config files, rather than from the state retention file when it (re)starts. Using this option is not recommended, as it may result in some unexpected (from your point of view) results. Alternatively, you can issue the appropriate external command or change the value of the host or service directive via the web interface, so that it matches what you've changed it to in the config files. This is usually done by using the extended information CGI. This option takes a bit more work, but is preferable to disabling the retention of non-status information (mentioned above)." http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/xodtemplate.html#service "notifications_enabled *: This directive is used to determine whether or not notifications for this service are enabled. Values: 0 = disable service notifications, 1 = enable service notifications." -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.

So can Nagios be expected to read information from the state retetntion file at some point even though the state retention option is enabled? I was able to force it by stopping Nagios and deleting the state file but I'm guessing that's probably not a good thing to do. It just seems like alot of work to have to do this through the web interfaces if let's say you have hundreds of hosts. I'm still not sure I fully understand how useful state retention really is within Nagios. thanks, fred p.s. I am reading the PDF for documentation but I think it differs from the html docs because I couldn't find the same retention notes in it.

There is not 'right' way to build your configs. Each person does them differently depending on their circumstances and methodology. There is a lot of flexibility but typically people create one file that contains all their contacts and contactgroups, one file that contains all the command definitions and also resource.cfg file for the specific items that must go there (detailed in the docs). As far as your host and service definitions you should add a few to get a feel for what's involved and then think about the kinds of changes you'll be making in the future. You could have one file per hostgroup containing host, service and hostgroup definitions, one file for host definitions, one file for service definitions and one file for hostgroup definitions _or_ you could use the config_dir directive and have each host and service definitions be a unique file. Those are just examples and there are many permutations that you could employ. I personally have one file for each of my major service platforms which contains host, service and hostgroup definitions for that platform that are hand edited as they only contain a half-dozen devices each and I monitor many different things on them, then I have script generated files that contain host, service and hostgroup entries for the hundreds of devices that are behind each service platform for which I only monitor ping status. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.

It's really nifty, as many more coders now can contribute without having to touch the inner workings of Nagios. In 3.x, I expect the logging part of Nagios will go away more or less completely in favor of the plethora of database supporting modules that has already come to life. Using some fairly obscure magic, it's also currently possible to pull ones configuration directly from a database. If anybody writes a module for this I expect config-reading will also turn into a module. Ethan can then focus entirely on the rulesets that dominates Nagios' behaviour, and development can then move forwards in quantum leaps. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.ericsson at op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Lead Developer ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.

Currently I have to create checkA and checkB, and both are displayed in the UI, even though one won't be checked for the next 10 hours or so. Does anyone know of a way to do this?

It seems to me it would be a fairly easy task to whip up your own NRPE plugin to do that. I'd probably do it in Perl, but if you're a Windows person I'd imagine it could be done pretty easily with a batch script as well. Otherwise you can always pull those stats via SNMP and poll multiple OID's with the check_snmp plugin.

I thought things were working fine yesterday but... When I restarted the xinetd, I get CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake. I have run through the FAQ database and everything looks ok. http://www.nagios.org/faqs/viewfaq.php?faq_id=191 1. I have checked my version of check_nrpe and I'm using check_nrpe_20 on the server. is the same version as the check_nrpe on the host I'm monitoring. The server was built with nagios-2.0b2. 2. SSL is disabled. As far as I know ssl is enabled on both. How do I double check that? The way I checked was ./check_nrpe --help | more and I see SSL/TLS available. 3. I checked the file permissions and I have them all set to allow nagios and the group nagios. I even chnaged the permissions of each to allow other in an effor to get this handshaking. 4. I don't have /dev/psuedo 5. I'm allowing the nrpe deamon's address. The address of the server performing the nrpe queries. not the host running the queries are being run on. Although I tried adding that too and that didn't help. Thanks for any advice. It was working yesterday like I said. I got cacti graphs working and then the standard nagios alerts didn't. ~DjK ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.

'According to the POSIX and UNIX standards, the above command asks to display all processes with a TTY (generally the commands users are running) plus all processes owned by a user named "x". If that user doesn't exist, then ps will assume you really meant "ps aux". The warning is given to gently break you of a habit that will cause you trouble if a user named "x" were created.' Thus the syntax of ps must be corrected. We should get rid of the "-" on "/bin/ps -axwo..."

Hi,

 

Is there a way to make the nsc+ check disk dll work with nspr_nt? Already have nspr_nt installed on all my windows servers and would hate to have to swap clients at this point.

 

How are others doing disk checks with nrpe_nt? If each server has a different number of partitions (all have c:, some have e:, and others have both e: and f: and/or more), are you just defining different service checks for the different partitions and then adding a host to each service check for a drive it has?

 

Thanks,

Dan

Hi,

NSClient++ can do this using the NRPE protocol.

check_nrpe ... -c CheckDriveSize -a MaxWarn=50% MaxCrit=75% CheckAll FilterType=FIXED FilterType=REMOTE

The above example (from the NSClient++ docs) will check all fixed and remote (network) drives, if you only want the fixed drives you can simply leave out the FilterType=REMOTE option.

A note though is that tomorrow night (didn't have time to fix it today, as my Grandmother had some problems with her computer that I had to fix :) I will release an update version that auto detects language and OS version that greatly simplifies configuration if you don't have an English system. As well as some other goodies, such as a much improved event log checker and some bug fixes.

Hi,
For the linux version of
the check_disk command, if you don't specify a
disk,
it'll check and report back on the status of all of
them.
(ie:
./check_nrpe -H LinuxServerHost -c check_disk -a 20
10)
 
I can't
find a way to do a similar thing within windows. I've looked

SSL is disabled. As far as I know ssl is enabled on both. How do I double check that? The way I checked was ./check_nrpe --help | more and I see SSL/TLS available. 3. I checked the file permissions and I have them all set to allow nagios and the group nagios. I even chnaged the permissions of each to allow other in an effor to get this handshaking. 4. I don't have /dev/psuedo 5. I'm allowing the nrpe deamon's address. The address of the server performing the nrpe queries. not the host running the queries are being run on.

Not necessarily... although having more than one nagios process running is usually an error. Try stopping nagios, wait some time and killall nagios. What the above message tells is that the last write to the log was quite a while ago... about 35 years, if I calculated correctly. I don't believe that. Make sure your disk and filesystem are ok. Verify the file access rights, or, possibly, rename that file and see if nagios starts a new one.

I submitted a patch a week or so ago that added CSV output to all availability reports variations. If you are using 1.2 I don't know as I haven't used that in a while but I would guess that you can get it for individual hosts there. I have attached my email with the patch that I sent to the -dev list.

I had a brief look at it. Figured I'd need to run my own server to ensure privacy. Looked at the server comparison chat - the official free jabber servers don't implement some of the stuff in the jabber specs. The whole thing looks very kitchen-sink-ish. I'm surprised they didn't call it Lightweight Chat Protocol or Simple Chat Protocol because no protocol after SMTP that has had "Simple" or "Lightweight" in its name has ever been either of those things. The only other way they could signify that it has far more complications than are desirable would be to call it Extensible Chat Protocol, but that isn't misleading enough. > Does anyone know if its possible to use it to insert the alert into a > particular jabber conference (thereby giving a logical multicast) rather > than having to send to individual jabber users ? Probably. If it's anything like Yahoo, though, you'll need to be intelligent enough that you start a conference or join a conference depending upon whether or not the conference already exists. Oh, and if it's anything like Yahoo you might need an invite to an existing conference. Also if it's anything like Yahoo you'd probably need a conference rather than individual messaging to avoid a backlog of stored messages if one of the contacts goes off-line temporarily. BTW, on the subject of alerts and instant messaging, the Perl Yahoo Messenger stuff is no longer actively maintained and stopped working with Yahoo a couple of YMSG protocol changes ago. So that's no longer a viable option if you thought Yahoo might be an alternative. If you don't consider "object oriented" to be an alternative spelling of "obfuscated" then you might be able to fix it by tweaking the authentication routines to match what is done in libyahoo2. Alternatively, you might be able to hack that sample client that comes with libyahoo2 to take its input from a named pipe, if you wanted to go the Yahoo route. To be honest, IRC might be a reasonable alternative. There's a perl IRC module, I believe, or you could even write a nagios reporting module for one of the perl bots like infobot or flooterbuck, although you'd probably have to hack the polling routine as well because I don't think either of them have a callback facility. Those bots already have the capability of dealing with passworded channels and even passworded servers, so you can keep the riff-raff out even if you use a public server. It's fairly trivial to add "fact packs" to the bots so you could pre-feed them with useful information and they'd respond to "foo.com?" with "foo.com is on server-39x." At the weekend I might have a quick look at what would be involved in adding an alert system to flooterbuck - I've almost convinced myself it would be a good idea. > On the subject of publish/subscribe notification/informing models, would > an RSS of the status page make any sense ? That might be a better way of doing it, at least if you don't want the alerts to be in a conference/IRC channel type thing where the humans can chat to each other as well as getting alerts. Otherwise if your support team consists of more than one person you'll need some sort of conference system anyway where you can argue which one of you is going to deal with the latest outage. -- Paul Allen Softflare Support ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.

It is possible; I once wrote a script that tailed a logfile into a conference.

Mr. Original Poster; I've got a C program called getnagioscfg which is known to work according to docs on Linux and Solaris (Nagios won't recurse on solaris either). If you could try it with your nagios.cfg and see if it finds all the configuration files that nagios should (according to docs), you can give me a holler and I'll put priority on implementing it in the Nagios core.

When I stop apache I get an email - no problems there. However, the event_handler I've setup is not working. In services.cfg I have an event_handler called restart-httpd, and in checkcommands.cfg I have a command called restart-httpd which calls a script. Same as shown in the Nagios documentation. Because this was not working I put some logging at the top of the script to log the args to the script, and this shows that the script is getting the correct args. The trouble is the script is not restarting apache when $SERVICESTATE$==CRITICAL, $STATETYPE$==SOFT and $SERVICEATTEMPT$==3. It only restarts apache when the SERVICEATTEMPT has reached 5 turning it into a HARD STATETYPE. I must of done something silly to have caused this, but I cannot see what it is. I would really appreciate any help anyone could offer. Below is a paste of the relevant bits of the file involved.

With is_volatile set, you'll get a notification for every different SNMP trap that you get -- just set notification_interval to something small (like 1) if you expect to get multiple, identical traps in a row. --Erwin ############################################################ Intelsat is a global communications provider offering flexible and secure services to customers in over 220 countries and territories.

Turns out that that is the problem, thanks. I've set the notification_interval to something incredibly large, however, because I never want more that one notification for the same event. Setting it to something non-zero lets every event cause a notification in real time.

The user creates his/her RSA key pair by running ssh-keygen(1). This stores the private key in $HOME/.ssh/identity and the public key in $HOME/.ssh/identity.pub in the user?s home directory. The user should then copy the identity.pub to $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys in his/her home directory on the remote machine (the authorized_keys file corresponds to the conventional $HOME/.rhosts file, and has one key per line, though the lines can be very long). After this, the user can log in without giving the password.

I could still use more (hostnames in particular), but I've had enough to make a fair few conclusions that will help boost performance in Nagios as soon as I've had time to put a patch together and test it rigorously. Those of you who are interested in the testing code and the various hashes I've considered for use in nagios can have a look at http://oss.op5.se/nagios/nagios-hash.tar.gz Note that this is intended for developers only, and that it won't be useful for those who aren't, so you non-nerds might want to stop reading now. ;) Worth noting with these hashes are that they are all very simple and that computing a rough 10 000 (or even 4 200 000 input lines) doesn't take very long (at least on my laptop). It's locating objects in over-filled buckets that's slow. Compile as such; make (it will complain about initialization from incompatible pointer types, but that's ok). Run as such; ./hash hosts You'll see output looking something like this (actual test-data, but truncated. The real one tests eight hashes and with lots of different bucket-table sizes); ************************************************* Slots: 32768, bucket table size: 128KB Strings: 10593. Min collisions 0. Additive (current nagios) hash Hash score: 75974.443793 Collisions: 8816, 83.224771%. Depth max: 75, average: 8.617791. High mark: 3863, low mark: 466, range: 3397 Fowler/Noll/Vo hash (ham_func5) Hash score: 1509.620363 Collisions: 1383, 13.055792%. Depth max: 4, average: 1.091555. High mark: 4294646454, low mark: 624407, range: 4294022047 ************************************************** Slots is the number of slots (buckets) in the current setup. bucket table size is the amount of memory consumed by the current scheme. Strings is the number of input strings, and min collisions is either (strings - slots), or 0. The first line each hash-func entry is just a marker of which hash is currently being tested. Hash score is calculated by multiplying the average collision depth with the total amount of collisions. The lower the score, the better the hash. Collisions is ofcourse the number of collisions that occurred with the current hashing scheme. The % value is the odds of it happening using the current input and bucket table size. Depth is the number of linked-list items one would have to traverse in order to reach the object one aims for (bucket-width). If max and average differs a lot the hashfunction doesn't spread objects evenly across the buckets. High/Low mark and range is the maximum and minimum hash-values (32-bit) returned by the current hash-function. Range is really the only valuable information here. If range is less than the number of slots (buckets), it's impossible to trade memory for speed. A high range value is therefore desirable. Most of the hashes in the test comes from http://burtleburtle.net/bob/hash/ (a truly horrible page, design-wise, but very informative). Some others come from the MySQL sources (although originally from the IEEE Posix P1003.2 mailing list). The additive hash is my own implementation. It matches that currently in use in nagios.

We use the script notify-by-jabber.pl that I got from someone else who posted this in an email to this mailing-list a couple of years ago or so. Works great for us as it is simple and our users do not have to log into a mu conference. I can send you a copy of the script we use if you want but I didn't write it and I have posted a copy to this list before when someone else was asking about jabber/nagios. There was/is a notify-via-jabber.pl script floating around (try google for both) that worked also. I think RSS would be a great idea; especially for the "views to non contacts" that you mention. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.

In snmptrapd, you use traphandle for a particular trap to execute a script which send passive check result to Nagios, via external command file. You can also use SNMPTT (www.snmptt.org), so the path is snmptrapd -> snmptt -> Nagios via external commands There is a good documentation on the web site of snmptt !! Note: For using SNMPTT, you must have net-snmp 5.1.1 or higher.......

This is the line i got from the server while trying to send ails: | -s "** PROBLEM alert - Backup Monedia/HTTP is CRITICAL **" ksylla at boabenin.com" resulted in a return code of 127. Make sure the script or binary you are trying to execute actually exists... I also tried to access the web interface in vain. I created the web alias as mentioned in the article, the web interface does not come up. Just to let you know, I installed the nagios nagios-1.2.tar.gz with the plugins nagios-plugins-1.4.tar.gz. Nothing else. Do you have any idea why it is not working? what to do to get email notification? to access to web interface? Do i need to install something else? Thanks in advance for the help.

This is an example from my configuration (all in one line!) command_line /usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** Nagios *****\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService: $SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTALIAS$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState: $SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n\nAdditional Info:\n\n$OUTPUT$" | /usr/bin/mail -s "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ alert - $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ **" $CONTACTEMAIL$ This is roughly what making nagios itself set up, as far as I remember.

You should make sure you understand how to send mail from the shell. Usually, `man mail` should tell you some things, but depending on which mail transfer and mail submission programs you have things may be different.

I didn't find any thing related. Easiest way is to follow the guidelines from your distribution or software vendor. Setting up a mail server will require some learning, though.

After they upgraded from RH 7.3 to 9.0, NRPE connections are now refused. I went through all the NRPE config and checks and everything is there. XINETD appears to be correct, but the NRPE failure continues (I stopped and restarted xinted to verify it starts correctly). I suspect the openssl is the problem. If you have had this problem and know what needs to be done, I need to have the person who did the official upgrade fix the problem (it is a production host) Richard __________________________________ Discover Yahoo!

Was nagios compiled on this box? It would appear that statusmap.cgi is expecting libgd.so.1.8 to be in a different location than it is (which is set at compile time). Run 'ldd statusmap.cgi' in the nagios sbin directory and verify that libgd.so.1.8 is in the path that statusmap.cgi is expecting it. If it isn't you should probably re-compile so that the correct location is determined. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.

Probably one or more of the following is the cause: * Postfix doesn't know how to route mail to myaccount at mydomain.net * you haven't changed the address everywhere in your configuration * you haven't restarted nagios * you have more than one copy of nagios running * you have old emails stuck in your mail queue * another mail server is bouncing your messages back, because the From: address is invalid Probably, reading the postfix documentation will help you. You need to get to the point where you can send mail from the command line, with a command like "echo testing | mail myaccount at mydomain.net" and receive the message OK. Hope this helps, Chris.

It would seem that a non-OK state would generate one notification, or at least that would be a configurable option. If I disable 'w' notifciaitons would that eliminate the second CRIT notification?

That would be highly dependent upon the types and frequency of the checks you're making. You might have a look at http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/tuning.html for some tips.

Recently I was asked to add a few solaris boxes as well - np or so I thought.... I installed the plugins for solaris ans set everything up. I use ssh with key auth to execute commands remotely. After setting up the key stuff I ran some plugins manually from the nagios box and everything worked fine. HERE is the funky part. I added this new box to the nagios setup and now I observe the following : All the service checks randomly change states between UNKNOWN and OK. I cannot see any logic behind that. Thing is that the actual Status Info says OK for all of the services (which is true cause they ARE OK). I figured there must be a problem with the exitcodes not being returned correctly so I modified one plugin to actually print the exitcode out. When I run this plugin manually it ALWAYS returns a 0 yet nagios seems to receive and UNKNOWN except every now and then it changes to OK only to change back later. Next I wrote a tiny script that ends with this line (exit 0). In other words it should always return a 0. Funny thing is that even then nagios still seems to receive a -1 for some reason I can't figure out. So my questions are: 1. Why does it randomly chagne states ? 2. How can nagios possibly receive a -1 when running the plugin manually always returns a 0 ? 3. How can I check what actual exit code nagios receives ?

The check_http command does not return a WARNING/CRITICAL status when a page 404's or has any other error(i.e 500,302, etc). I've ran other versions of nagios on other systems and remember a WARNING/CRITICAL status being returned when anything other than a 200 OK was returned. When ran from the command line HTTP WARNING is returned but when looking at the web interface the status is still OK and under status information I see the same output that i get when ran from the command line, HTTP WARNING. I'm not a programmer but from looking at the source of the check_http command it seems that i should get an HTTP WARNING and the status should change from OK to WARNING. This is not the case in my situation. Maybe I'm missing something here and have this misconfigured so I will post the relevant parts of my configuration her e. Can anyone see what i'm doing wrong?

As I understand it, if you disable host checks for a host, then it will remain in its current state and no checks will be attempted. However, even with host checks disabled, they are still occuring! See this: Host Status: DOWN (Has been acknowledged) Status Information: (No Information Returned From Host Check) Last Status Check: 14-06-2005 15:47:37 Status Data Age: 0d 0h 0m 40s Last State Change: 14-06-2005 10:22:26 Current State Duration: 0d 5h 25m 51s Last Host Notification: 14-06-2005 10:22:26 Current Notification Number: 1 Is This Host Flapping? NO Percent State Change: 0.00% In Scheduled Downtime? NO Last Update: 14-06-2005 15:47:56 Host Checks: DISABLED Host Notifications: ENABLED Event Handler: ENABLED Flap Detection: ENABLED The current time is 14-06-05 15:50. As you see, it last ran a host check 3 minutes ago, despire the fact that host checks have been disabled for five hours now. As a side effect of this, the timeout on a ping for the host check is causing the Latency to increase on all the services. System is Linux kernel 2.4.20, running Nagios 1.2. Host check in question is a default check_ping Has anyone come across this before? Is there a reason for the host checks being carried out regardless of the settings?

Do /etc/init.d/nagios stop killall -9 nagios /etc/init.d/nagios start and see if that works. State-retention is another reason that's a fairly common culprit. If the gui tells you host-checks are enabled, that means it has been given a command to enable them sometime in the past and nagios remembers it. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.ericsson at op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Lead Developer ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.

Message-ID: <02769B432700E649B14C0847840DC83B282D86@becompanysrv020.consulting.becompany> Hi Steve, I did some additional tests on Nagios version 1.2 with following results: When a host check is disabled for a specific host, services for that host are still scheduled unless they are also disabled. A status change of a service for that host is not forcing a host check. This result in avoiding a possible ( tremendous ) latency increase since the host check is not executing anymore and is not interrupting service scheduling. Of course there is still an impact on global service scheduling, since service checks for that host will time out and when the maximum of concurrent checks is reached, checks are delayed, still increasing latency. When the host check is enabled, the host check seems to be executed, only up-on a service state change. Further I have no explanations for your results, unless multiple instances of nagios are running and this is also causing additional effects.

Hi - I appear to have found something which is not working as expected. As I understand it, if you disable host checks for a host, then it will remain in its current state and no checks will be attempted. However, even with host checks disabled, they are still occuring! See this: Host Status: DOWN (Has been acknowledged) Status Information: (No Information Returned From Host Check) Last Status Check: 14-06-2005 15:47:37 Status Data Age: 0d 0h 0m 40s Last State Change: 14-06-2005 10:22:26 Current State Duration: 0d 5h 25m 51s Last Host Notification: 14-06-2005 10:22:26 Current Notification Number: 1 Is This Host Flapping?

As you see, it last ran a host check 3 minutes ago, despire the fact that host checks have been disabled for five hours now. As a side effect of this, the timeout on a ping for the host check is causing the Latency to increase on all the services. System is Linux kernel 2.4.20, running Nagios 1.2.

I use something like this: # 'check_wan_alive' command definition define command{ command_name check_wan_alive command_line $USER1$/check_ping -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w 3000.0,80% -c 10000.0,100% -p 5 -t 30 } This has a 30 second timeout, a 3000ms until warning with 80% packet loss and a 10000ms latency and 100% packet loss before critical.

But I don't see why that is a compilation error? I mean the cgi were compiled fine in the first place. So I don't quite understand why the sizes are different when they are copied over.

Everything worked fine with the 3000-services-config. But when I used 5000 services then some strange things happened. First all the checks were pending and nagios scheduled all in the queue correctly. After the first check was performed nagios marked the check with Status OK and scheduled it again with normal check interval (in this case 20 min.). These services were never checked again, which means, after checking all services the first time nagios stopped checking any services, since all lines in the scheduling queue had a next checktime which is in the past. And they never get rescheduled until a restart or reload of nagios. It seems as if nagios simply forget to check these services. No error messages in the event or sys log, load < 1, preflight check of the nagios without any errors. I used Nagios-2b03, the same situation with Nagios-1.1. Any idea ? It seems that this behavior only happens if a certain number of services are reached. Is there any kind of limit for services or something like this? It would be great if you could help me, since I want to use nagios in a larger environment, but with this situation I can't. Thanks in advance.

Here is what is different in my scenerio I have 750 hosts with between 1 and 30 services being checked (6123 services) none of my active checks wait more than 5 minutes. All host checks are turned on. My passive checks update every 5 minutes. So is your problem related to the number of hosts? can you try 2500 hosts with 5000 services and see if you get the same problem? I will try this on my dev system and see what happens.

Thanks to everyone who gave suggestions. Here is some more information: is_volatile is NOT set for the host. retain_status_information and retain_nonstatus_information are both set. There is definitely only one instance of Nagios running. As I understand it, since services are dependent on a host, if the host status is CRITICAL then the service checks will not be run until the host check returns a non-critical? The problem seems to be that, for some reason, host checks are being run when they should not. Nagios has been told to disable (via the GUI) and this seems to have taken as it displays and is retained through restarts. Maybe the host check is being forced regardless of the disable_host_checks setting due to service checks failing? Has anyone else experienced this?

We had two servers setup and one of the servers seemed to always lock up. Lock up is defined as all services including the Linux OS itself not accessible. The server is pingable, but the screen is completely black and typing on the keyboard made no difference. I always thought it was hardware related; therefore, I transferred it to a new box and it did the same. I also ran a test and determined that when Nagios was off, the lock up would never occur. I just recently installed a development box and been testing Nagios 2.03b. Every once in a while, the same lock up happens and the only thing can do is a POWER RESET. Has anyone experienced similar occurrence? The only thing I can think of is that all the boxes I had this happen to SENDMAIL was turned off. I run an hourly routine to clear the ClientMailQueue.

Update the kernel and then check for bios bugs. If nothing else, keep a tab on the system load at all times. If it starts spiking, nagios (or a plugin) might have entered an infinite loop. That might make it *seem* the system is frozen, but it's not.

Has anyone experienced similar occurrence? First time I've ever heard of it. Are you using any custom plugins that read the status of some local hardware? Misbehaving drivers can leave the kernel in uninterruptable IO for ever, but that should go away with a kernel update. > The only > thing I can think of is that all the boxes I had this happen to SENDMAIL was > turned off.

If the queue holds more than 32768 files (on ext2 filesystem), old kernels (linux <= 2.3.2, or something) can freeze when trying to add another inode. Accessing already existing inodes is impossible at that point, because the kernel is already stuck and can't deliver it. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.ericsson at op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Lead Developer ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

Most don't even diagnose the problem correctly. If you're running Nagios 2.0+ then check_nagios will not work. This includes check_nagios from the latest CVS snapshot and all previous versions. For your information, it is because the status log format has changed... drastically. As a temporary workaround, I'm using the check_file_age perl script in lieu of check_nagios. Yeah, this is probably supposed to be in the nagios plugins mailing list, but it's relevant here since there are a few messages about check_nagios reporting that the status file is very old. ~Mike. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFCsE9Ncg6ARUNrEosRAlGXAJ9F29mvcqWKwUFPJwBYiluNNKbLVACgwjdW Kr5dKvjChM47madVs/nDX0w= =vMDE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

Message-ID: All, What would be the recommendation for running Nagios plugins 1.4 on Solaris and linux clients in a production environment? Are the CVS plugins stable enough? Or should I stick w/ 1.4? I'm under the impression that there are fixes for Solaris problems in CVS that might make it the better choice. Are others running CVS plugins in a production environment?

So just edit the check_command file. Copy the http check that looks like this: # 'check_http' command definition define command{ command_name check_http command_line $USER1$/check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$ } and at the end of the file just create your own version (or just edit the default). Like this: # 'my_check_http' command definition define command{ command_name my_check_http command_line $USER1$/check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p $ARG1$ } Now you can use a check command like "my_check_http!2584". ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

Well, it's documented in the manual and the examples. Basically, you can put any macro into in command definition, and $ARG1$ .. $ARGn$ are the arguments you give to command in the host or service definition. So, for example $USER1$/check_http -H $HOSTNAME$ $ARG2$ could be a command line definition, that you could use like check_http!-p 2584 from a service check. More details in the distributed docs...

Any way of changing that? A short look into the page properties with mozilla just showed me that nagios uses a stylesheet. So, if you understand enough HTML and CSS you could simply change the stylesheet. If you can't do that yourself, I might see if I find time to help you.

It seems like the "standard" way is to use the "check_http!commandargs" approach, but i'm not sure how that's supposed to work w/ the '-p', i've tried "check_http!-p!2584" (w/out the quotes), but that doesn't work... what's the syntax for that?

Ok, this is from Nagios 1.2... You've got a state retention file you set up in the main configuration file. This is a text file, one line per information item. In xdata/xrddefault.c about line 200 you see how the data is read, and you find that, for example, notifications_enabled is the 12th field for a service. Counting "SERVICE: name" as one field, and assuming I counted correctly. Looks like an easy enough job for grep, sed, awk, perl, bash or whatever script language you prefer.

You could then have a PHP script that does the parsing put all of the "critical" machines into one array/xml/rss whatever. For my use this worked great on my help desk website, I just list the major servers and have an icon for up, critical, warning, and unknown. Here's some PHP code to read the status log and put all of the servers into an array that are accessed via the 'hostname' ***This code is from the NagVis project.**** function GetStatus() { $l="0"; $x="0"; $status_dat = file("/var/nagios/status.log"); while ($status_dat[$l] != "") { $type = explode(" ",$status_dat[$l]); if ($type[0] == "host") { $hostname = explode("=",$status_dat[$l+1]); $host = trim($hostname[1]); $state[$host]['service'] = $host_servicename; $current_state = explode("=",$status_dat[$l+9]); $host_state = trim($current_state[1]); if ($host_state == "0") { $state[$host]['state'] = "UP"; } else if($host_state == "1") { $state[$host]['state'] = "Warning"; } else if($host_state == "2") { $state[$host]['state'] = "Critical"; } else { $state[$host]['state'] = "Unknown"; } $plugin_output = explode("plugin_output=",$status_dat[$l+12]); $state[$host]['plug_out'] = trim($plugin_output[1]); $l = $l + 42; } $l++ ; } return($state); } So how I use this on my website is like this: Important Systems \n _TABLE; foreach($servers as $key=>$server) { $plug_out = $status[$server['Host']]['plug_out']; if($status[$server['Host']]['state'] == 'UP') { $this_status = "\"$plug_out\""; } else if($status[$server['Host']]['state'] == 'Warning') { $this_status = "\"$plug_out\""; } else if($status[$server['Host']]['state'] == 'Critical') { $this_status = "\"$plug_out\""; } else { $this_status = "\"$plug_out\""; } echo <<<_ROW \n _ROW; } echo <<<_TABLE
$server[Desc] ($server[Host]) $this_status

\n _TABLE; ?> It just spits out a table like the following: Email (CTEX01) ---------- Logon (CTDC01) ---------- That is included on the sidebar of my site.

It can check as many hosts as you like and will return OK so long as any IP specified is up. Download the tarball from http://oss.op5.se/nagios unpack it. enter the directory and type 'make'. Make a symlink; ln -s check_icmp check_host run check_host -t 60 It will stop and return OK as soon as it gets a proper ICMP response, so the run-time of this check will be extremely short so long as not all hosts are down (typically less than 10 milliseconds on a local network). -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.ericsson at op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Lead Developer ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

Apache was upgraded from release 2.0.48 to 2.0.52 on the new system. Everything went well and I copied over the cfg files and other plugins. Nagios starts up and works - the problem is with authentication for the website. The first problem I found when trying to authenticate with .htaccess/.htpasswd showed up in the httpd error_log indicating a MySQL authentication failure. I did not request that during the rpm based install, so I am not sure why that has been added. I fixed that so that authentication will use .htaccess/.htpasswd. That seemed to work and I was allowed to the main page. When I went to look at the hosts on the new system I was denied access. After looking around I saw that the env was missing all the authentication env variables like REMOTE_USER=mysignon I rebuilt and re-installed nagios to be sure it was correct. The problem persists. I know this is more an apache http issue, but I cannot find any answers about this and why the upgrade has caused this problem. If anyone has had this problem or can point me to a solution, I would appreciate any help. Richard __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

It's fairly easy to write such spoofing code when one has access to raw sockets, but I never saw the need for it in a good honest application.

Oops! The Txt diagram is a bit mangled. Let me re-send. Wow - now that's a quick response! Basically the main reason for this request is OpenSWAN. I happen to run Nagios on the same machine that is my OpenSWAN gateway. A simple diagram is like this: Europe LAN-------- EuGate ---- Internet ---- NAGate ---- North America LAN Europe Private IP North America Priv IP 10.1.1.0/24 10.2.1.0/24 Of course, on both the North America and Europe side, there are more routers on the LANs which connect to other networks. EuGate has a private IP of 10.1.1.1 and Public IP 212.3.3.3 (for instance) NAGate has a private IP of 10.2.1.1 and Public IP 24.3.3.3(for instance) Nagios runs on the NAGate machine, which does IPSec policy-based routing to send packets through the tunnel from the North America LAN to the Europe LAN and back: EuGate: Source Traffic 10.1.1.0/24 Destination 10.2.1.0/24 - Tunnel NAGate: Source Traffic 10.2.1.0/24 Destination 10.2.2.0/24 - Tunnel The IPSec policy applies to the Private IPs on either end. BUT here's where the problem begins. Because OpenSWAN uses IPSec policy-based routing instead of normal IP routing (with proper interfaces) the routes in this system look weird, but work ok. For instance, the route on NAGate that sends traffic through the tunnel is like this: Dst: 10.1.1.0 Mask: 255.255.255.0 GW: 24.3.3.1 - NAGate's ISP If you just look at that from a normal network routing perspective, you would say that it would never work. There's no way the Europe-bound traffic would ever make it to the Europe LAN by simply passing it to the ISP. But at this point the IPSec policy-based routing takes over, and redirects the traffic through the tunnel (which indeed still goes right to the ISP on the way to Europe) Soooooo... If I send a PING command from NAGate to the EuGate private IP or any other private IP on the Europe LAN, such as some host at 10.1.1.23, the originating address on the ping is the PUBLIC address of NAGate - 24.3.3.3. Because the originating address doesn't match the IPSec routing policy, it doesn't get encrypted and sent through the tunnel. BUT (here's the important part) if I specify my ping on the NAGate host like this: ping -I eth1 10.1.1.23 (eth1 is the private interface 10.2.1.1) the pings go through ok because their source address now fits the IPSec policy. If I was running Nagios on any other host on the network except the IPSec gateways, this wouldn't be a problem, but because it runs ON the gateway itself, the challenge arises. Is this non-convoluted enough to justify the change? :-) Dave... ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

I'd suggest you change the ping command in config.h after having run ./configure. You can then set the parameters to whatever you like.

We make lots of updates to our web sites that can cause Nagios to give false alerts. So when we que up an update the update process automatically turns off alerting on the Host/Service then once the update has been verify and show to work the process automatically turn on the alerting again. Because of this our script to alert on disable notification would alert during an update. To fix this we added a process to make sure the script will fail again on the second pass on the same service before it alerts. It works great for us. -----Original Message----- From: nagios-users-admin at lists.sourceforge.net [mailto:nagios-users-admin at lists.sourceforge.net] On Behalf Of Arno Lehmann Sent: Wednesday, June 15, 2005 1:12 PM To: Bob Eckhardt Cc: nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] anyone done this before?

Ok, this is from Nagios 1.2... You've got a state retention file you set up in the main configuration file. This is a text file, one line per information item. In xdata/xrddefault.c about line 200 you see how the data is read, and you find that, for example, notifications_enabled is the 12th field for a service. Counting "SERVICE: name" as one field, and assuming I counted correctly. Looks like an easy enough job for grep, sed, awk, perl, bash or whatever script language you prefer.

Not sure what you mean by NEB configuration. There is no documentation regarding the NEB API anywhere, anytime. If you're interested in writing a module, I suggest you download nagios-db and have a look at sampler.c which is included therein. It's a very simple module which is good to learn from. > I don't want to > go through the trouble of writing up something myself if it already > exists. > My guess is that you'll be regarded as something of a hero if you properly document the API.

All CGIs display the error "it appears you do not have permission to view information for any of the services you requested" Here's the funky part - it does this even when authentication is turned completely off in cgi.cfg. It also accepts the username and password when authentication is turned on, and the apache logs seem to indicate authentication worked and that the CGIs are getting accessed. Also, I have a different box (a testing box) that seems to run nagios fine, and no problems with authentication or permissions going on at all. The systems are both running Gentoo. The (functional) test-box is using apache2, the main (nonfunctional) server is running apache. I've gone through cgi.cfg and made sure the user permissions make sense, i.e. the user being logged in with is listed under all the "authorized_for_..." entries. File permissions are good in the cgis folder and the cgis themselves. It appears that the cgi code is the bit that's deciding I don't have permission. Rather than spam huge config files into my post I'll try to watch the thread and supply them on demand when I'm back at work tomorrow. Thanks guys, hope someone knows what's going on because I'm stumped! -- Brian ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

This new GUI will most likely keep comments in a database by itself and only let Nagios know of acknowledgements (for notification purposes). No new features are planned for the current GUI, although patches implementing obviously desirable features are often accepted. Obviously desirable in this case means that no sane person can have anything to object to them, or they are optional and unobtrusive if unused.

In the past I've hand compiled GD, but on this box I made sure to install the necessary packages (info attached below). I'm pretty dang sure I got all the libs (gd/png/jpeg) in all the right places (also below), I've double checked my /etc/ld.so.conf, I've specified the lib paths in the ./configure... and still the ./configure says: checking for gdImagePng in -lgd (order 1)... no checking for gdImagePng in -lgd (order 2)... no checking for gdImagePng in -lgd (order 3)... no checking for gdImagePng in -lgd (order 4)... no I glared at the Makefile for a bit, but hopefully the mail list will be a bit faster... Any thoughts on why I can't get these dang libs included with my nagios would be great.

Get it from http://www.boutell.com/gd/, compile it, and use the --with-gd-lib and --with-gd-inc arguments to specify the locations of the GD library and include files. NOTE: In addition to the gd-devel library, you'll also need to make sure you have the png-devel and jpeg-devel libraries installed on your system. NOTE: After you install the necessary libraries on your system: 1. Make sure /etc/ld.so.conf has an entry for the directory in which the GD, PNG, and JPEG libraries are installed. 2. Run 'ldconfig' to update the run-time linker options. 3. Run 'make clean' in the Nagios distribution to clean out any old references to your previous compile. 4. Rerun the configure script. NOTE: If you can't get the configure script to recognize the GD libs on your system, get over it and move on to other things. The CGIs that use the GD libs are just a small part of the entire Nagios package. Get everything else working first and then revisit the problem. Make sure to check the nagios-users mailing list archives for possible solutions to GD library problems when you resume your troubleshooting. ******************************************************************** checking for ltdl.h... yes checking for lt_dlinit in -lltdl... yes checking for extra flags needed to export symbols... -Wl,-export-dynamic checking for linker flags for loadable modules... -shared creating base/perlxsi.c Embedded Perl interpreter will be compiled in...

This has nothing to do with the comment surviving the Ack being cleared. Speaking of Documentation, I am having trouble finding documentation for end users. (ie, how to operate the GUI. What the difference between disabling notification, disabling checks, ack'ing a problem, etc. ) You have to infer a lot of it from the code. It would be nice to have a "helpdesk" level of documentation for the GUI. The "if there is only one" is useless without the search feature in front of it. I think the search feature is pretty important. I have hundreds of machines. I know that one of them is going to go down, so I want to schedule it for downtime (via the gui) Right now, I have to click through screens to find the host. Either look at the very long detail or overview pages, or else try to guess what hostgroup it might be in. Having a place that I could just type in the name would be a big help. (I know I can bring up the URL and type it in directly, but this isnt user friendly, especially since the page is in frames so you cant see the URL.

This new GUI will most likely keep comments in a database by itself and only let Nagios know of acknowledgements (for notification purposes). No new features are planned for the current GUI, although patches implementing obviously desirable features are often accepted. Obviously desirable in this case means that no sane person can have anything to object to them, or they are optional and unobtrusive if unused.

If you are trying to execute check_disk on remote host then the docs (README file that came with your NRPE package) says it clearly that it is a risk. Hard code whatever arguments you have to pass. I think it is obvious why. > Is there where NRPE is used? Yes. As far as I understand, check_nrpe on the monitoring hosts requests the nrpe daemon on the client to execute the relevant plugin. > I can't find too much > documentation about it... where does one learn about nrpe (or how do i > check disk space on remote hosts?) There is a good example in the README file I mentioned. Apart from that there is nothing else. But if you have successfully set up and configured Nagios on a host implementing this should be rather easy. Again read that README file thoroughly. --Turi -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Or does that just reflect the fact that there are no service notifications in the log file for this service? I'm thinking about upgrading to 2.0, but I haven't found any official Mandrake RPM's for the newer nagios versions, which means a hand compile. No big deal, but if I can avoid nuking our current setup I would prefer that. Have I missed something obvious? Or is it a known bug with this older 1.1 version that was fixed, thus necessitating an upgrade? James Cammarata ?

Unless there's a compelling reason to use check_disk you might try the other effective options. I'm using check_nt which requires NSClient on Win2K boxes and all that's required on any UNIX variant in order to use check_snmp is a MIB on that box that provides disk info(which most - or at least all that I've seen - do). > > -Jim > > ________________________________ > > From: Cam [mailto:cameron.matheson at gmail.com] > Sent: Thu 6/16/2005 2:33 PM > To: EXT-Fuentes, James P > Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] checking disk space of remote hosts > > > > On 6/16/05, EXT-Fuentes, James P wrote: > > However, I've successfully implemented disk checks on Win2K, tru64 and Netapp with check_nt and check_snmp repectively. > > > > What OS's are you trying to check? > > Right now i'm just monitoring linux boxes (i'm not sure if it will > expand to windoze in the futur or not). > > Thanks! > Cameron matheson > > > > ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

I meticulously went through Dhawal's list, and found one of the two libpng devel libs missing from my RPM set (can't recall which one right now). I installed it via Yum, and the ./configure went through fine. Apologies to all for assuming I had ALL the libs... As a second note, Dhawal was right a second time... The nagios ./configure was 'finding' libiconv and compiled fine, but when I ran the cgis (by hand or through Apache) it griped: [Fri Jun 17 07:11:52 2005] [error] [client 10.1.90.72] /usr/local/nagios/sbin/statusmap.cgi: error while loading shared libraries: libiconv.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory, referrer: http://nagios/side.html So it wasn't finding the libiconv... I scratched my head for a bit, I compiled/installed the newest libiconv project again, still got the same error, then remembered the trick: ldconfig. That seemed to tie things together, and now my cgis are pretty again. Thanks all, and fwiw Nagios on Centos is pretty easy, all the packages except for libiconv and Nagios itself are available and seem to work out of the box.

Here are snips of the relevant configs: nagios.cfg: use_retained_program_state=0 enable_notifications=1 execute_service_checks=1 check_service_freshness=1 freshness_check_interval=60 enable_flap_detection=1 log_notifications=1 contacts.cfg define contact{ contact_name jamesc alias James Cammarata service_notification_period 24x7 host_notification_period 24x7 service_notification_options w,u,c,r host_notification_options d,r,u service_notification_commands notify-by-email host_notification_commands host-notify-by-email email james.cammarata at XXXXXXXXXXXX pager 314XXXXXXX } contactgroups.cfg define contactgroup{ contactgroup_name Admins alias Network Administrators members jamesc } hosts.cfg define host { use server-template host_name lnxbk alias Linux Backup Server address 192.168.XX.XX notifications_enabled 1 } hostgroups.cfg define hostgroup { hostgroup_name 000_stl_servers alias St.Louis Servers contact_groups Admins members lnxbk } services.cfg define service { name service-template active_checks_enabled 1 passive_checks_enabled 1 parallelize_check 1 obsess_over_service 1 check_freshness 0 notifications_enabled 0 event_handler_enabled 0 flap_detection_enabled 1 process_perf_data 1 retain_status_information 1 retain_nonstatus_information 0 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 contact_groups Admins } define service { use service-template host_name lnxbk service_description Ping check_command check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60% notifications_enabled 1 notification_options w,u,c,r } Here is what the web view shows for that service: Current Status: UNKNOWN Status Information: /bin/ping -n 192.168.10.88 -c 5 Current Attempt: 1/3 State Type: HARD Last Check Type: ACTIVE Last Check Time: 06-17-2005 09:09:10 Status Data Age: 0d 0h 4m 18s Next Scheduled Active Check: 06-17-2005 09:14:10 Latency: < 1 second Check Duration: 5 seconds Last State Change: 06-17-2005 08:39:17 Current State Duration: 0d 0h 34m 11s Last Service Notification: N/A Current Notification Number: 0 Is This Service Flapping?

NO Last Update: 06-17-2005 09:13:17 Service Checks: ENABLED Passive Checks: ENABLED Service Notifications: ENABLED Event Handler: DISABLED Flap Detection: ENABLED As you can see, the "Last Service Notification" field is "N/A", is that relevant? Or does that just reflect the fact that there are no service notifications in the log file for this service? I'm thinking about upgrading to 2.0, but I haven't found any official Mandrake RPM's for the newer nagios versions, which means a hand compile. No big deal, but if I can avoid nuking our current setup I would prefer that. Have I missed something obvious? Or is it a known bug with this older 1.1 version that was fixed, thus necessitating an upgrade? James Cammarata ?

Together, Nagios and Ganglia provide quite the monitoring sweet.

I use something like this: # 'check_wan_alive' command definition define command{ command_name check_wan_alive command_line $USER1$/check_ping -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w 3000.0,80% -c 10000.0,100% -p 5 -t 30 } This has a 30 second timeout, a 3000ms until warning with 80% packet loss and a 10000ms latency and 100% packet loss before critical.

I'm (and presumably hundreds of others are) using nagios-plugins-1.4 with nagios-2.0b3. They work perfectly Ok, apart from ping, which apparently should be replaced by icmp (personally I'm using fping, and that works Ok, too). nrpe works fine with all of them, too. --Tonni -- mail: tonye at billy.demon.nl http://www.billy.demon.nl ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

Mine all show up in a single message. I have my Nagios WCTP interface perl scripts (with 2-way ACKnowledgment) at: http://mundle.sf.net/ WCTP is similar to SNPP and is WAY more reliable and timely than any sort of email connectivity. The message is dropped off on the Cingular WCTP server via an HTTP connection and an XML message. The version at my site is designed for Nagios 1.x, but I've recently checked changes into CVS which will support Nagios 2.x. I'll be releasing that version in the coming week.

What is in use here is 1 Jabber client - sendxmpp a command line Jabber client (requires Net::XMPP from CPAN) that can send to a conference (-c option) and also run in interactive (-i) mode in which it reads from stdin and sends each line as a jabber message 2 Jabber server - jabberd 2.0 still under development but works Ok 3 Jabber viewing clients - Exodus for MS Win, Psi or TkAbber for Unix. A primitive daemon process (in this case) running on the Nagios server - tails the Nagios log - applies any necessary filters (eg discard non HARD events) & - writes the filtered (& possibly transformed events [eg adding emoticons _may_ be possible]) to stdout (connected to the sendxmpp process). There is at least one GOTCHA, namely that the jabber user that sendxmpp uses to send the message (to the conference on the jabber server) must have administrative rights (granted by the jabber serve) to be able to drop the message in the conference. The process running sendxmpp runs as a normal user (eg the same user as the Nagios daemon) but it authenticates to the jabber server as a jabber user that has jabber admininstrative priviledges. Without this, jabber clients connected to the conference see the 'nagios jabber user' join and leave the conference but the message it drops is not visible. This may be a bug in the jabberd 2.0 server since both the client and the jabberd server logs show no signs of error or unusual messages. Yours sincerely. -------------- next part -------------- An embedded and charset-unspecified text was scrubbed...

This is one of the situations for which passive checks are recommended. Check in the docuemntation that comes with nagios regarding passive checks and they'll mention an example situation (briefly) that is like what you mention. Basically, set any services you would like checked as passive and have the hosts themselves send to the nagios server. ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

If you run 'netstat -nat' you should see nsca port open. If you run 'nmap -sT localhost -p 5667' you sould see nsca port open. If you use only 'nsca localhost' only a few set of port (well-known) are scanning (use nmap -v localhost to see how much port are scanning).

Or does that just reflect the fact that there are no service notifications in the log file for this service? I'm thinking about upgrading to 2.0, but I haven't found any official Mandrake RPM's for the newer nagios versions, which means a hand compile. No big deal, but if I can avoid nuking our current setup I would prefer that. Have I missed something obvious? Or is it a known bug with this older 1.1 version that was fixed, thus necessitating an upgrade? James Cammarata ?

No. Unfortunately you have a problem that I cannot solve, without debugging on my own machine. I don't know what you mean by "telnet on localhost isnt possible".

Or does that just reflect the fact that there are no service notifications in the log file for this service? I'm thinking about upgrading to 2.0, but I haven't found any official Mandrake RPM's for the newer nagios versions, which means a hand compile. No big deal, but if I can avoid nuking our current setup I would prefer that. Have I missed something obvious? Or is it a known bug with this older 1.1 version that was fixed, thus necessitating an upgrade? James Cammarata ?

But occasionally he'll have some outburst, sometimes with a Wine in hand (Red I think). Then sometimes Andreas will smack him down with a well placed comment, Paul might bicker a bit, and eventually reconfirms to us all of what he's like, and then eventually goes back to lurking, interrupted very occasionally with some vaguely useful technical comment. Since I worked this out I largely ignore him. As do most people. Don't sweat it.

Internal system monitoring (which cannot/shouldn't be done remotely) will give you things like CPU, Load, Disk Space, application stats, etc. Remote/external monitorinng will give you an idea of uptime, end-user experience and overall availability of service. They are two completely different beasts. Install two systems, or install the internal one only and check out the very reasonably priced services of RedAlert or SiteSeer. You can obviously find much more expensive solutions from Keynote and Mercury Interactive.

NC_Net critical files are in the output and config directories. (NC_NEt does not access any other files that are copied) The file output/nc_net.exe needs to then be installed as a service.(via installutil.exe) once that is done a registy key should have been created. (NC_Net uses this key durring startup to determin the path of the config files) Key== LocalMachine\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Services\\NC_Ne name:"ImagePath" If you have Visual Studio installed you can always compile NC_Net and create your own MSI. The source code is in the source directory. hope this helps Tony On 6/21/05, Sand Philipp wrote: > Morning, > > I wonder if it's possible to build your own NC_Net_setup.msi.

Perhaps the message was a bit gruff on the delivery, but I am getting as fed up with the incessant repeats as Paul. It's one thing to subscribe and immediately ask a question that was answered last week (rude...but within the realm of 'normal'). Asking over and over and over some obscure question is the height of rudeness, well beyond acceptable behavior in a private community environment (as this is). That said - Paul, be nice.

Did you edit this command by hand to change it from its installation default? Can you run the following consolidated representation of your command above? -- /usr/bin/printf "%b" "testing" | /usr/sbin/sendmail -s "Test Message" some at email.address I'll bet you can't ;) For starters, sendmail doesn't understand a '-s' command line switch, among other problems. You should switch it back to using the mail[x] binary to pass the message to postfix properly by changing /usr/sbin/sendmail back to /path/to/mail (use 'which mail' to determine the proper path). If you don't have mail or mailx installed, you'll either need to install one of them or see http://www.nagios.org/faqs/viewfaq.php?faq_id=150 -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

Ogg123 or mpg123 (I think that's how they're spelled? Can't double check atm.) or even xmms, a few different sound files, and the Jack sound system I think would be where to start on that. Also the Festival speech synthesis system is designed to be able to accept "say text" requests from networked clients. It's quite a pain to set up and hogs the sound card for itself when it runs, but could be used to speak the hostnames in trouble. "Speech-Dispatcher" is another synthesis program that's much easier to use, but is single-system only unless you plug it into Festival (which it is built to be able to do through an output module if you get the Festival-enabled package).

The header file IS in /usr/local/include. I tried changing it from to "/various/directories/on/my/machine/where/gd_h/is/located/gd.h" and I just got errors about undefined objects like gdDestroyImage or something like that. Anyway, after much experimenting, I gave up on compiling statusmap.c, hoping you can help me. The second problem is: I go to the web and click on a link to a cgi and I just get the "Error: Could not read object configuration data!" page. My nagios -v shows no errors or warnings, and my log is empty. I tried tracing through all the .c files to see what causes that error message, and I couldn't figure it out. So basically, Nagios doesn't work at all. I REALLY REALLY need help. So please contact me at adam at networkdr.net. Thanks in advance!

All the competent people I have encountered look first at the brief product description to see if it is even CLOSE to what they're after. If it is they then read (or at least skim) the documentation. If it still looks as though it might do the job they download it and install it on a test box and if it does what they want they don't need to do anything else. If the installation fails, or they can't figure out how to make specific features work, or they can't determine if something works how the documentation implies it should, then they read the documentation more thoroughly. If the documentation doesn't help they try the FAQ. If the FAQ doesn't help they google for an answer. If google doesn't help they have a quick look through the source code. If the source code doesn't help they search the mailing list archives. Only AFTER all of those fail to give the required answer do COMPETENT people consider asking on the mailing list to see if they've misunderstood something, or if the product simply isn't up to the job it was supposed to be able to do, or to see if anybody knows an answer. Here's an example of the sort of question a competent person might ask: I want to monitor Windows Active Directory. I've looked at all the official plugins and the contributed plugins but there's nothing. I've googled for it and I've searched the list archives but not found anything. I can use check_tcp to establish if something is listening on the Kerberos, Kerberos password, LDAP and MS Directory Service ports but I know only too well that computers can do a three-way handshake that satisfies check_tcp but be unable to respond to real queries. I can use check_ldap for the LDAP service but that still leaves the other three without real checks. Does anybody have anything that will do sensible checks on all four services and integrate the answers from each so that the plugin can report the status of Active Directory as a whole rather than the status of four individual services (which would still not guarantee that the responses from each of the four services is both consistent and correct for the domain/workgroup in question). If not, is anybody working on such a plugin? I have a client with Active Directory that they would like us to monitor but the only info I can get on what it does is from unhelpful Microsoft documentation and tcpdump output. So if nobody is working on a plugin but there is somebody out there who knows more about Active Directory than I do but not about writing plugins then please contact me and perhaps between us we can come up with something that will do what is required. That's not a hypothetical question. I really would like to monitor Active Directory. The time it would take me to figure out the intricacies of the protocols is more than the client is willing to pay (the client thinks a ping check of the machine in question is a good test) but I'd like to do the job right. So if anyone has an intricate knowledge of the protocols but knows nothing about writing plugins then mail me. And here's the sort of question an incompetent person would ask: I made some changes to my configuration and restarted Nagios and now every time I refresh the web page services appear and disappear. Granted that is a bug in the Nagios 1.x startup script, but it is a DOCUMENTED bug. It's in the FAQ. It could (and perhaps should) be more prominently documented, but it's documented. It's not a question anyone who should be let near the root login of a linux server should be asking on the mailing list. And if you disagree with me on that one, then read . > to see what type of expertise is out there, Dunno about you, but if I were looking for an expert I'd go by my perception of the quality and range of the answers. If there's a dickhead asking stupid questions or giving obviosly wrong answers I don't consider him an expert. If somebody is giving good answers to a wide range of questions I consider him an expert. And if there are people having side-arguments I'm not interested in I skip those posts in order to evaluate their other posts and the posts of other people. But if I really wanted to pay for somebody to do an installation or configuration for me I would FIRST look at the development team to see if any of them do contract work on Nagios (they do). > what problems people are getting These days mailing list archives will give a very misleading impression because lazy, incompetent people use the mailing list as a first resort for dealing with the slightest problem - the sort of problem they would not have had if they had read the documentation. So scratch that as a means of evaluating the product: all you're evaluating is how many morons don't bother to read the documentation. That is especially true in this list where the boss of a Windows shop has the idea of getting one of his Microsoft-certified point-and-click-monkeys to install Linux and Nagios and said monkey asks basic questions about linux here. After they've progressed from "how do I unpack the source without Winzip" it goes rapidly downhill. And there are a lot of those people these days. If you go by the mailing list questions then Nagios is chock full of problems and totally useless; if you read the documentation then you realize the list is full of people who never read the documentation. > how responsive the community is, In my experience, any newsgroup or mailing list that responds with anything but "RTFM" to questions that would never have arisen had people read the documentation is almost certain to become useless. The real experts get fed up with the clutter from the moronic questions and the answers to those questions. The nett expertise goes down considerably. I have seen it in lists I've looked at hoping for sensible answers and seen nothing but "how do I do X" when "X" is covered on the first page of the installation documentation and responses that were obviously incorrect and nobody putting them right. But it would appear that some people would prefer a list where there are lots of "I don't really know, but maybe if you try this" responses because that list would be "responsive." I prefer one right answer to my question (even if it's "RTFM" or "you're an idiot, RTFM") to dozens of wrong answers, but that's just the way I am. Never do COMPETENT people turn to a mailing list for free support on using the software. Incompetent or lazy people do that. Competent people can either figure it out themselves or know that it would take them too long and it's more economic to pay an expert to sort it out for them. > Having someone sounding off like that uncensored could Key word: "could." As in might, perhaps, maybe. > be hurting the adoption of this product in some Key word: "some." Anywhere from 0% to 100% depending on arbitrary (and unspecified by you) assumptions. > companies by making the support base look bad. Ah, your arbitrary assumptions become clear to me now you say "support base." If there is a company that hasn't a clue about using linux or open source, and if the employees of that company don't read the documentation, read the FAQs, use google or do any of the things COMPETENT people do, and if those employees are under the mistaken impression that the people on the mailing list OWE them FREE support for moronic questions, and if they look at the "support base" with the expectation that everyone on the list exists to give them polite courteous answers to moronic questions (as a paid-for support person would, and as I do to paying customers), and if they are too stupid to understand that even if they dislike one (or even all) of my posts that in no way invalidates the posts of others, and if they don't know how to use a killfile, then yes, perhaps that company might get a bad impression of the "support base." I can understand why you are so upset. A (hypothetical) clueless company with clueless employees expects the people on this list to do their work for them for free and here I am making posts that discourage them. Far better that they swamp the list with their moronic questions and the experts bugger off because then the list will have lots and lots of polite (but incorrect) responses and everyone will be in happy bunny land where the carrots are tasty and the clouds are fluffy and shit don't stink. -- Paul Allen Softflare Support ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

Yes, but if you read his post in detail you would see that he did have the devel libraries installed and even gave configure explicit paths to them. More likely is that he has an old version of GD installed that does not have the necessary subroutines because the GD API used by Nagios relies on stuff that his version of GD does not implement. There are other possibilities including compiler/linker issues and make issues, but my first approach (having read his post in more detail than you but still only having skimmed it) would be to install a more recent version of GD. -- Paul Allen Softflare Support ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

Message-ID: Hello! I'm having troubles with the functionality of the trends.cgi page. Sometimes it works and sometimes not. --> The resulting error message says: Whoops Error: Could not read object configuration data! Here are some things you should check ... ... I've tested it really comprehensive, but I didn't find the real reason of this bug. For example: I've a host with the name "new2" for which I can view the trends page (host view) This host contains 2 services (PING, SSH): (both currently in status critical) * The Trend-Page for PING doesn't work! * But the Trend-Page for SSH does work! The weird thing is, that both trend-info pages do work, if I call them out of the service detail page (view trends for this service) Another example: (the other way round) My host "Management server" has the services "Disk Usage: /" and "Disk Usage: /var" * Here both trends-pages selected out of the trends main page do work * But if I call the trends-page out of the service-detail page: o "Disk Usage: /var" doesn't work! o "Disk Usage: /" works And the Trends-Page for the "Management server" itself don't work in both cases (neither through the host detail page link, nor through direct call with the trends.cgi page) IS THIS A REALLY TRICKY BUG??? I also had the problem that the trends-page will be displayed but the graph window was empty / wasn't displayed. If you then click on the empty graph window, the error message mentioned above occurs (couldn't read obj. config data) I don't know how to solve this problem!

SNMP traps I know how it works, but I still have the problem, with SNMP nagios will perform a send request to the remote host (windows as example), and this remote host return a status, 0, 1, 2 4.... ok?! to me SNMP will not work :( I NEED a plugin that I can configure in a windows machine all the services that I want to monitor (how memory and other executables). But this plugin has that to be executing in the windows machine, and ONLY send a passive check to nagios when a Service change your state. Does the NC_Net have this self-monitorating? or I will have to configure on the Nagios the services to monitorate how I do in other services? NSCA is running on my Nagios, it's all ok. :) Thanks for you interest!!!

This is not a sensible way of doing it. If a service fails, the plugin sends a critical result, you know the service has failed. If the service recovers you get an OK result and you know the service has recovered. If the computer itself dies, you don't get any result at all and so you continue to believe that the service is OK. Normally with passive checks you run them at periodic intervals and have Nagios check if the result is stale (so if the computer you're monitoring dies Nagios will eventually report the result as stale and flag it as critical) but with your "only report if the service changes state" you can't do staleness checks. I suggest you think again about why you want to do this. -- Paul Allen Softflare Support ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

What you want is passive checks submitted to *regularly* (say every 5 minutes) via NCSA to your Nagios machine. Either install Nagios on a *nix machine on the remote network or install NC_Net on each of the Windows servers to be monitored (I've never used NC_Net but the documentation says it can submit passive checks via inbuilt NSCA routines). Install the NSCA daemon on your Nagios box. Configure Nagios to accept the passive checks. Make sure you create an active check for each passive service that returns a critical result and the text "Passive check is stale" (if the passive check is stale the active check gets called). You had almost the right idea but your Windows machines must submit passive checks regularly rather than on a service state change or you won't know if one of the Windows machines fails completely because you'll never get a critical result for any of its services. -- Paul Allen Softflare Support ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

This is not a sensible way of doing it. If a service fails, the plugin sends a critical result, you know the service has failed. If the service recovers you get an OK result and you know the service has recovered. If the computer itself dies, you don't get any result at all and so you continue to believe that the service is OK. Normally with passive checks you run them at periodic intervals and have Nagios check if the result is stale (so if the computer you're monitoring dies Nagios will eventually report the result as stale and flag it as critical) but with your "only report if the service changes state" you can't do staleness checks. I suggest you think again about why you want to do this. -- Paul Allen Softflare Support ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

Scheck) Date: Wed, 22 Jun 2005 10:02:33 -0400 Subject: Host checks without service check Message-ID: <42B96F79.4060007@cornell.edu> Hello, Is there a way to have Nagios execute a host check (e.g. a simple check-host-alive ping) without having any service checks defined for that host? Whenever I configure hosts without configuring service checks for them, nagios gives me configuration file warnings, and then the host checks remain in "pending" state. I have some devices that I only need to monitor for ping-ability. I solved the problem by also adding a service check which also just does a ping, but I'm wondering if I missed something and there is a simpler way to do it.

I've seen machines that complete the TCP three-way handshake for a service but don't get any further. The problem is usually that of running out of some critical resource needed to fork off the service to handle the connection although the TCP stack itself continues to function. Check_ping is a very poor test of a service. Check_telnet is a little better but all it really tells you is that you have a functioning stack, not that the service behind it is running correctly. A check that tests for a response from the service (like a 220 response from SMTP) is better still. Best of all would be a check that runs through the whole sequence, such as sending mail on port 25 and checking that the final response is OK (because you might get a temporary or permanent failure code when SMTP tries to queue or deliver the mail), although that's probably too much overhead if you're monitoring lots of servers. -- Paul Allen Softflare Support ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

I believe that making posts that demonstrate a lack of knowledge or understanding on my part is something to be avoided, which means that I try to post intelligently if I can do so or refrain from posting if I cannot. There are already plenty of people whose posts display how stupid they are, so if you don't like intelligent posts you can read those instead. > The rest of my message still stands. Which I didn't bother responding to earlier. But since I'm posting to acknowledge your apology (because I think people should admit to errors and would like to encourage such behaviour), I might as well deal with your earlier message. >> I fail to see how: >> >> #1 he has made duplicate posts for this question. Barring an obvious >> mail server problem that was not intentional, he most likely did not >> intend on posts this question multiple times. "He most likely did not intend"? How do you reach that conclusion? At least once a week some new user appears here and does deliberately post the same thing several times a couple of hours apart because he expected his free "support base" (as somebody else called it) to respond instantly. The odds are very much in favour that, unless the dupes were caused by the well-known SMTP race hazard (in which case they would all have identical message IDs and identical timestamps from the first SMTP server in the chain), the multiple posts were intentional. His response to my post lends further support to that statistical conclusion. Along with a few insults, he stated that I didn't know if there was a valid reason for those multiple posts. What he was trying to imply, of course, was that there was such a reason. However, since his post insulted me and called me stupid then surely the best way of proving exactly how stupid I am would be to post that valid reason. "Here's why there were multiple posts, you didn't even consider that possibility, so you're an idiot." He could have made me look really stupid by giving his valid reason and I would have had to apologize for my stupidity. So why didn't he do that? >> #2 how this is a FAQ, or RTFM or even google answer. nowhere in the >> nagios documentation do i see "themes" or locations where to get >> themes for nagios. Did I tell him to look at the documentation for themes? I don't recall doing so. I did tell somebody else who thought the mailing list should be the first place people should look if they wanted to evaluate Nagios that reading the documentation and setting up a test installation ought to be the first things people try and looking on the list should be the last thing they try. >> so how in the world is this a "dont bother me..look up the answer >> yourself" response? Again, I don't recall telling him to look at the documentation to find out where to get themes. However, if he had looked at the documentation he'd have found out where Nagios add-ons live, which would have led him to a couple of alternative web interfaces/modifications to the existing web interface. A google search would have turned up others. I assumed that he had already done at least one of those things because he had already found one theme for Nagios, which is why I didn't tell him to look up the answer himself. His question was not out of place here, it was the number of times he asked it that was the problem. >> This may not of the caliber of question that meets your such high >> expectations, Correct.

I would suggest that those who don't get their facts straight before leaping in to flame somebody are more egocentric than I am because they are confident that they can form a correct opinion without investigating the evidence. -- Paul Allen Softflare Support ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

No. Nagios is designed to be a service monitor primarily. Every host must have at least one service defined for it.

It was a mixture of both. He wants to monitor machines on remote networks but (I assume) has found that active checks put too much load on his Nagios box or he can't get the checks through firewalls. His solution is to use what is effectively *very* distributed monitoring by puting NC_Net on every server he wants to monitor and having each monitored server submit its own passive checks. I would guess he's doing that because he can't install a linux box with Nagios in each of the remote sites. So he is doing distributed monitoring, although whether for sensible reasons or not we do not know for sure. What he also wanted to do was only submit passive results if a service changed state in order to reduce the load. That would be reasonable IF he had a remote Nagios box doing the checks and IF he performed active checks on the remote Nagios box or if he had staleness checks on the passive results the remote Nagios box submitted for its own service. In that situation if a service on the monitored server goes down the remote Nagios box spots the problem and submits a passive result. If the remote Nagios box goes down then the master Nagios box spots the problem. But with each server monitoring itself and submitting results only if a state changes there are failure modes he cannot detect. He can't enable staleness checking because the results don't come in on a regular basis. That means if he only submits state changes and the server itself dies or goes up in flames, or loses power, or whatever, his Nagios server will continue to think the service is up. As somebody else suggested you can add check_ping as a service check to the monitored servers but you can get ping responses from machines that have got themselves into a state where nothing else is working. So the web server, mail server, and NC_Net could all be locked up but ping is OK so you think everything is working. > Witch is a valid thing to want to do. The metrics over all will not be > off, if the service goes down Nagios will get the passive results sent > to it, if the box goes down you have another check to allow Nagios to > down the box. Which ought to be better than a ping check. It needs to be a check of one of the essential services. Except it could well be that each of the servers he's monitoring only have one or two essential network services (we have a client that has several computers that are each dedicated to being web servers and nothing else, other computers dedicated to being mail servers and nothing else, other computers that are dedicated to being MS SQL servers and nothing else, etc.) If his servers are like that then he's back in the situation of active checks. And even if his servers run multiple services and he actively checks only one, there's a small possibility that one or more of the passively checked services could fail along with NC_Net but the service he actively checks continues to give good results. I admit it's a very small chance, but it's a real one. For instance, running out of disk space might kill SMTP and NC_Net (if he's having it write to a log) but DNS could continue to work. DNS is a lightweight protocol so would be the obvious choice to reduce the load placed on the main Nagios box. > If the Nagios is setup with passive check with a time out Nagios will > force the check it self get an unknown and then ping the box. That is the normal way of doing it.

There's no real difference provided you do it right (regular submission of passive check results whether there has been a state change or not together with staleness checking).

As the subject says, I am looking for details of how the nagios reporting works (versions 1.2 and 2.0). In particular, I am looking for confirmation that reporting cgi's will automatically go through the archived log files to report. Looking through trends.c, I see that the number of archived logs to used is based on the 'backtrack_archives' variable and the default used is dependant on the frequency the logs are rotated. It *seems* that regardless of what you set "Backtracked archives" to, it will automatically pull out the correct number of archived logs. Is this correct? I probably could see this better, if the graphics were being displayed correctly, but I am getting "Premature end of script headers: trends.cgi" (as well as histogram.cgi ), but that is a different issue. Another issue is the alert history. Is there any way to specify a specific date? Is there any way of specifying a range of dates? Also I would be interested in any documentation describing the details of other aspects of the reporting.

It *seems* that regardless of what you set "Backtracked > archives" to, it will automatically pull out the correct number of > archived logs. Is this correct? Nagios will automagically figure out what log files it needs to look at for your reporting period only. The backtracked archives feature is useful to determine the initial state of the host/service at the beginning of the reporting period. For example, if you run a report for this month but don't have any log entries for the host or service in question until the 20th, nagios will show the first 19 days as undetermined. If there was a log entry showing the host was OK on May 29th, you can use the backtracked archives feature to include that log file as well to set the initial state. You can also use the First assumed state option if you want to assume an initial starting state if there is no log entry. > I probably could see this better, if the graphics were being displayed > correctly, but I am getting "Premature end of script headers: > trends.cgi" (as well as histogram.cgi ), but that is a different issue. Check your web server error logs. They'll detail the problem. Typically the GD libs are not available or not where they were at compile time. > Another issue is the alert history.

No but you could grep the information out of the archived log files if you needed that. > Also I would be interested in any documentation describing the details > of other aspects of the reporting. There isn't much (http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/cgis.html). Most of the CGI's are pretty standard/self explanatory if you're familiar with monitoring systems. I haven't really seen any good end-user documentation.

You can download RPMs for RedHat at: http://dag.wieers.com/packages/ You'll notice that there is a nagios-nrpe (what you would install on the remote machines). There is a nagios-plugins-nrpe (under nagios-plugins) that you would install on your Nagios machine. Pretty much all this RPM does is install the check_nrpe in your plugins folder. You might be able to use the SRC RPMs on that site for your SUSE... or at least modify the spec file to customize for your situation. >I was under the impression that it would have at least > check_nrpe in the libexec > directory or something.

Inter-check delay method: SMART. doesnt work for you. you can always change the value in nagios.cfg to USER-SUPPLIED VALUE and then supply your own values. second from my experience with plugins ssh and snmp written in perl. no matter if its embeded / compiled. you get lousy preformance. better to write them in C. and if its not possible write them in php-snmp the results are much better. please also check you computer load.

It seems that the ',' used to separate the two OID's is being replaced by a ' ' in Nagios. Running the following from the command line produces: behrens: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_snmp -H tg-v001 -p 1 -c 0:0 -C watchme -o enterprises.ucdavis.extTable.extEntry.extResult.1,enterprises.ucdavis.extTable.extEntry.extOutput.1 SNMP OK - 0 ypmatch -k user password This is all the correct information, however if I look at the process tree for nagios as it runs the command: behrens: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_snmp -H tg-v001 -p 1 -c 0:0 -C watchme -o enterprises.ucdavis.extTable.extEntry.extResult.1 enterprises.ucdavis.extTable.extEntry.extOutput.1 Basically what is happening is the ',' is getting replaced witha space. I tried everytning from backslashes to double and single quotes. This is causing the results in nagios to only display the exit code. What needs to change to allow the ',' to stay?

Microsoft's SQL Server ripped off somebody else's protocol - it's the Microsoft way, they never innovate, they either buy somebody else's technology (if they have to) or rip it off (if they can get away with it). > Find out which one you have or want, and get a plugin for that. I see from other posts that he needs to check MS SQL 2000. There are two plugins in the contrib directory that check MS SQL. The one that uses freetds is, in my opinion, the better one. The one that uses freetds copes with all MS SQL network protocols from the earliest to the latest that has been released (it's not automatic, you have to configure freetds so it knows that server X uses protocol version Y and that server A uses protocol version B) but it's the one I'd recommend. -- Paul Allen Softflare Support ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

My problem is that even if I deliberately make the script fail it will still show as OK in Nagios. And the status information shows 'no output returned from plugin'. If the script fails I have it exiting with status code 2, and it exits with a 0 if the script works. The script is below if that will help. Could someone please tell me how to get user created plugins to give the correct info back to nagios ? I cannot find this in the nagios docs, nor on google. If someone knows where this info is then a link would be appreciated.

Then you probably haven't tried to monitor hundreds of hosts or thousands of services :-) Active checks do NOT scale. Unless you involve passive checks at some point (even if it's a Nagios slave server submitting results to a master by passive checks), as your system grows it will get slower and slower until it falls over when it reaches a certain size. > Though my views are slant to our environment, all web sites, each site > displays a page giving information of the health of the site. From there > we are firm believers if the service is critical we will actively probe > it, not waits for it. Passive checks submitted to the master, backed up by an active check from the master if the results become stale, are every bit as good as active checks in my book. Plus they reduce the load on our monitoring server by an order of magnitude. Since we don't have infinite resources, that really helps a lot. And we do still get timely alerts of problems.

After this you configure a NC_Net plugin on your machine windows and configure it. After, you will have to configure the NSCA Client on windows, this client will do the comunication with nagios server and sent it the result of a service monitored.

I know they use passive checks back to main Nagios Host. The problem I have is for a critical peace of infrastructure is relying on the passive check to the Host. I prefer active check. The problem with passive check is you are relaying on the host to update Nagios instead of Nagios actively polling for information. Like you said below I know if the data becomes stale Nagios will fore a check on the service. I just prefer to cut the middle man out of the system and reline on active checks. Over all Nagios will scale to a very large amount of active service check in a short amount of time. For the most part most check take very little system recourses, but the problem becomes you can only do some many checks in a set time frame. Right now our site of Nagios is not the Biggest, we only monitor 495 host with 518 service every three mins. Though we have to be rock solid and quick, here Nagios is the underdog we had to carve out a nitch for our self from the likes of Patrol, MOM, HP Open view and sitescope. Over all I believe Nagios hold it own, in a few cases our little free services has to be tone back because we were performing services of the high price monitoring apps. Over all I under stand passive checks, I have user them a lot before for monitoring services and in distributed monitoring, in my option I like active check better and I like the theory of polling for data instead of the push modal. I have been using the product sine it was Netsaint 0.7, over all love this app and the way I can make it work with other monitoring app. The one thing I was sad to see was when it became Nagios we lost the little penguin. Again this is all my two cents. -----Original Message----- From: nagios-users-admin at lists.sourceforge.net [mailto:nagios-users-admin at lists.sourceforge.net] On Behalf Of Chris Wilson Sent: Thursday, June 23, 2005 4:37 AM To: Nagios Users Subject: RE: [Nagios-users] Re: About a active plugin in local machine Hi Richard, > Over all I am not a fan of passive > checks, in my option if the service check is not critical enough to > perform a active check but wait for the host, then it is a nice to > know but not critical. Then you probably haven't tried to monitor hundreds of hosts or thousands of services :-) Active checks do NOT scale. Unless you involve passive checks at some point (even if it's a Nagios slave server submitting results to a master by passive checks), as your system grows it will get slower and slower until it falls over when it reaches a certain size. > Though my views are slant to our environment, all web sites, each site > displays a page giving information of the health of the site. From > there we are firm believers if the service is critical we will > actively probe it, not waits for it. Passive checks submitted to the master, backed up by an active check from the master if the results become stale, are every bit as good as active checks in my book. Plus they reduce the load on our monitoring server by an order of magnitude. Since we don't have infinite resources, that really helps a lot. And we do still get timely alerts of problems.

It seems that the scheduler of nagios roles over itself if the count of services is to big. Therefore we decided to install another nagios process with different configs in a different directory. So we splitted our nagios like our networks. One Nagios (nagios-1) for Network A and another one (nagios-2) for Network B. So our count of services per nagios instance was decreased and it runs so far so good. All this was under version 1.2. In the past I posted some questions about our problem but there were no good answer on it, so today I just only know that it works for us. So far for this. I hope nobody will geek me when I take your post to describe some problems we now have on testing above doing with different instances on the same host with nagios 2.02b. When I fire up my instance "nagios-1" with around 1600 Service Checks it runs very fine with nearly no latency. But when I fire up the "nagios-2" with around 1850 services this instance runs very fast to latencies around 100 seconds. When I now stop the first instance the latencies on the second one decrease down to < 5 seconds. Perhaps some of the developer can tell me if I am right in theory that (one of) the working thread(s) with the scheduling queue can see the other scheduling queue? Are the possibly the same? I am not a programmer but I can think about following: Starting nagios-1 will create the scheduling queue and gives it to RAM. So far so good. There it is and the worker runs through it and executes the checks. I am now afraid that when I start my second nagios process this will also create the scheduling queue into the system RAM but that the two proceses don't have their own queues... Hope that anybody understand what I mean. Best regards Hendrik Mieden, Rick van der schrieb: > We have heavy performance problems with Nagios.

It wasn't quite that easy (I had to upgrade glibc and a dozen other things first too), but it was all done with rpm -U. All I needed was the right RPMs, which I found on http://rpmfind.net.

Yeah. It's spitting out what you want to know in your own language, Franglais. If you look at what you're telling it to do and what it says it can't do, one in English and one in French, you can fathom it out for yourself: ?No program or service of that type at ...?.

Within the same major version it's usually as simple as './configure --whatever-options; make all; make install' to just install over your existing installation. None of the config files get overwritten. Always check the CHANGELOG if there is one to make sure there are no important config changes you need to make but those are rare. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

I have also not been able to get check_radius working. I am not using Linux which might complicate it. I finally gave up and used my vendor's (I use the Radiator non-open source RADIUS server) Radius test routine and hacked it to make my own check_radius script. See what test routines your Radius vendor provides. If you've not written a script before it might seem daunting, but it isn't that hard. And I found it to be easier than getting the standard check_radius nagios plugin to work on a non-Linux system if it works that way at all, which I'm not sure.

However the underlying command "snmpget" or "snmpgetnext" requires the oids to be separated by a space not a comma. So if you run command under verbose mode, you will see the command being generated with spaces. The plugin will print out the text values of both the oids as they were returned. which version of the plugin are you using? -- -sg ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

I knocked up a perl plugin that checks printers using the RFC 3805 MIB. I've not been able to test it on many printers by causing various error conditions to confirm that it gives sensible answers. A couple of HP printers I tried it on gave some spurious answers during the tests. Since HP is pretty clued up I suspect my plugin to be at fault rather than their SNMP implementation, but since the printers were at a remote site and somebody else was doing things like emptying paper trays I don't know for sure if he was doing what I asked him to.

What do you mean by active? If they're not supposed to be listening then you could use check_tcp/check_ftp with the negate wrapper to return OK if they're not listening on their respective ports and CRITICAL if they are. If you need a more specific test you'll need to describe more specifically what you're looking for. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

You're probably looking for the is_volatile option in your service definition. http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/xodtemplate.html#service The way to handle SNMP traps is almost identical to what you're doing so those docs may be useful as well -- http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/int-snmptrap.html -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

Is your nagios host listed as an allowed_hosts in nrpe.cfg? Can you manually telnet from your nagios host to your nrpe host on port 5666? Have you tried enabling debug in nrpe.cfg? If the first two are correct, the last should direct you to what you need to fix. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

Message-ID: <200506241813.j5OIDHo28279@qube3.mapfusion.com> Hi, I have been using Nagios for a long time but have just switched to Nagios v2.0b3 and I'm re-working my config files a little bit. A large portion of my monitoring is done via the NRPE plugins. And a large portion of the NRPE checks are common across all of the machines. So my structure is as follows I have all of the Sun servers in a hostgroup SUN-Servers, I have definitions for about 8 common NRPE checks that are assigned to the SUN-Servers hostgroup. So far so good, with very little in the way of definitions I have 100's of checks defined. Now to my problem, I would like to define a service dependancy for all NRPE services to be dependant on one check_nrpe_daemon check. So when the daemon is down I don't receive multiple alerts for every NRPE check. So I'd like to get the equivalent of this: define servicedependency{ dependent_host_name DBDEV dependent_service_description / Root Slice host_name DBDEV service_description Check NRPE inherits_parent 1 execution_failure_criteria o,w,u,c,p notification_failure_criteria o,w,u,c,p } For every common NRPE service for every host in the SUN-Servers group. Now if I use the SUN-Servers hostgroup in the servicedependency definition it makes every NRPE service dependant on EVERY host's NRPE Daemon this obviously isn't what I want. The best solution I have to this problem is to NOT send notifications for UNKNOWN service checks for every NRPE check except the daemon check. But I'd like to know if there's a better way to apply service dependany's in this situation. Thanks in advance for any help. PS. Below I've included the relevant entries for one host/NRPE check definitions. Ray, define service { use generic-diskcheck hostgroup_name SUN-Servers service_description Check NRPE check_command check_nrpe_daemon } define service { use generic-diskcheck hostgroup_name SUN-Servers service_description / Root Slice check_command check_nrpe!check_disk1! } define service{ name generic-diskcheck use generic-service is_volatile 0 check_period 24x7 max_check_attempts 3 normal_check_interval 10 retry_check_interval 1 contact_groups office-admins notification_interval 1440 notification_period 8x5 notification_options w,u,c,r register 0 } define service{ name generic-service active_checks_enabled 1 passive_checks_enabled 1 parallelize_check 1 obsess_over_service 1 check_freshness 0 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 hostgroup{ hostgroup_name SUN-Servers alias All SUN Solaris Servers } define host{ name generic-dev-host parents MFSW_SVR01 notifications_enabled 1 event_handler_enabled 1 flap_detection_enabled 1 process_perf_data 1 retain_status_information 1 retain_nonstatus_information 1 check_command check-host-alive max_check_attempts 10 notification_interval 60 notification_period 8x5 notification_options d,u,r hostgroups DEV-Servers,Office,SUN-Servers contact_groups office-admins register 0 } define host { use generic-dev-host host_name DBDEV alias Development ColdFusion & Oracle address dbdev.mapfusion.com } _______________________________ Ray Ward System Administrator MapFusion Technologies Inc. mailto:ray.ward at mapfusion.com http://www.mapfusion.com _______________________________ NOTICE: This message is intended only for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed; and it, including any attachments, may contain information that is privileged, confidential and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.

Seppanen) Date: Fri, 24 Jun 2005 15:03:45 -0400 (EDT) Subject: Host Notifications Disappearing Message-ID: Hi Folks: I'm running a distributed nagios 1.2 configuration, and I had a couple of host notifications that never showed up. I was doing escalation testing today, and everything worked. I regenerated configurations with the correct IP's so that the device would show up again. The logs detect that it came back up but no notifications were received and the notification history cgi shows nothing either. The template I'm using has that this device type should notify from both a remote monitoring host, and a parent aggregate host. On both servers it did not notify. It is configured to notify on d,u,r. The following are a sample of the logs Jun 24 13:52:23 host nagios: Warning: Host check command 'check-host-alive' for host 'testhost' timed out after 10 seconds Jun 24 13:54:22 host nagios: HOST NOTIFICATION: test;testhost;DOWN;host-notify-by-email;(No Information Returned From Host Check) Jun 24 14:07:24 host nagios: Warning: Host check command 'check-host-alive' for host 'testhost' timed out after 10 seconds Jun 24 14:22:23 host nagios: Warning: Host check command 'check-host-alive' for host 'testhost' timed out after 10 seconds Jun 24 14:24:25 host nagios: HOST ALERT: testhost;UP;HARD;2;(Host assumed to be up) No host notification. The server would have been restarted to get the updated host IP, so when it started back up, it assumed it was up... Any ideas. Servers are running version 1.2.

It's very expensive to dig through logfiles, and very cheap to run a local plugin making a single system call (sysinfo() on linux, f.e.). Interpreted plugins (scripts) always run slower and require more memory than their compiled counterpart. Plugins executing external programs also run a lot slower. SNMP-plugins parsing a lot of mibs will run significantly slower than those using OID's and not parsing the mibs (I think Net::SNMP of perl parses all mibs automagically, so executing snmpget without parsing mibs is actually faster when using perl). In healthy networks where things work most of the time, plugins will run a lot faster (since no plugins time out) and Nagios will be able to handle more active checks. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.ericsson at op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Lead Developer ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

Do you happen to know of anything that isn't effectively a database that accepts SQL queries? I don't (but I admit I don't know everything). I have to say that I find it difficult to conceive of doing left and right joins, for example, on something that wasn't effectively a database or had a mode of operation in which it was effectively acting as a database. I could talk to the postman in SQL, but I doubt he'd understand me or give me an answer if he did. >> Not entirely true. Each database has its own proprietary extensions. >> That said, I cannot conceive of any *sane* system where a plugin would >> need to check the functioning of those proprietary features rather than >> performing a simpler check of access to a particular table or record. > > There's also ANSI SQL. Most (all?) RDBM's servers implement a superset of > the required parts of the language, I expect that some of them don't implment all the required parts, or implement some of the required parts incorrectly. I would guess that most of them claim to implement all the required parts and try to do so even if they don't. MySQL lists a number of ways in which it departs from ANSI (but not whether those departures are from required or optional parts) but it can be started up with --ansi if that matters to you. Even so, I cannot imagine any *sane* system where a plugin needs to check anything but a minimal subset of the required parts of ANSI SQL. Can you connect? Can you select database X? Can you pull record Y from table Z and get the expected result? Do you have at least W records in table Z of database X? There are many, many possible failure modes in a database with many tables upon which complex queries are made but checking for all those failure modes would be resource-intensive, even if you could afford the time to analyse what all those failure modes might be. I can conceive of some circumstances where you've been burned before by a cow-orker doing something silly and the PHB requiring a very complex SQL query to check that the same thing doesn't happen again (it probably never will, and your cow-orker will find some other way of breaking things that your current test doesn't spot). I can conceive of this check requiring the use of MySQL extensions that improve performance because otherwise it would take so long that it would time out. I just don't think it's particularly sane to do it. The most common problem you're going to encounter is the database server not running at all for some reason (system has been rebooted and the database isn't configured to be started at boot; somebody has accidentally found a bug that causes the database to crash; etc.) Next most common is somebody accidentally deleting a table or even a whole database. If you need to use proprietary extensions to do your checks then it's likely you're testing for a problem that only occurs once in a blue moon. You could perhaps make a case for running checks invoking MySQL "CHECK TABLE" but that would be slow and it's rare that tables get corrupted except after a power failure (and rare even then), and it usually only affects one or two tables out of hundreds, and checking all the tables every few minutes just in case you've just recovered from a power failure is going to consume a lot of resources. In some cases, where one or two tables are mission-critical, then you might have to check those. For us, power failures are rare; MySQL table corruption is rarer still (because of ext3 journalling and RAIDed drives); and we have many customers using MySQL for trivial things - in that case the customer does the monitoring. If you're a bank and all your customer account details are in one gigantic MySQL table then a regular "CHECK TABLE" can probably be justified, but an rc.local "CHECK TABLE" on the mission-critical tables is probably adequate for most people. >> Not entirely true.

I couldn't be bothered digging out the docs on FreeTDS, which I'm using to monitor an MSSQL database. I just remembered reading that TDS had been ripped off by Microsoft from somebody else. Microsoft rip off so much it's hard to keep track of who they ripped it off from. It's much easier to keep track of what technology Microsoft has neither bought from somebody else nor stolen from somebody else - there isn't any (even if you count their aggressive business style as a technology, the MAFIA got there first). -- Paul Allen Softflare Support ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

Neither relational nor structured, but still a > database, of sorts. ODBM, NDBM, GDMB and DB are all databases. Not relational or structured, but they are indexed (which a textfile is not, unless it is sorted by primary key and has fixed-length records so you can use a simple binary chop to seek the desired record). You can, with sufficient code, use ODBM, etc. (and even a textfile) as a relational DB. Except in simple cases it would be more sensible to use a real RDBM. It would not be sensible in the general case to add an SQL parser and the fiddles needed to use (say) GDBM as a relational DB rather than using a real relational DB. >> I could talk to the postman in SQL, but I doubt he'd understand me or >> give me an answer if he did. > > It might be fun to try.

I use Slackware 10, kernel 2.6.11, nagios-2.0b3 and gd-2.0.33, apache-2.0.54 all compiled/installed from source. The thing a have see into the config.log, is somes stranges line like: /config.log:configure:1239: checking for uio.h /config.log:configure:1245:17: uio.h: No such file or directory configure:1245:22: pthreads.h: No such file or directory configure:1245:20: socket.h: No such file or directory Fortinately, this files is located into "/usr/include/linux" folder, but the pthreads.h is not found anywhere. Other strange line /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-slackware-linux/3.3.5/../../../../i486-slackware-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lcma /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-slackware-linux/3.3.5/../../../../i486-slackware-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -liconv /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-slackware-linux/3.3.5/../../../../i486-slackware-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lttf What is missing to my system, what is lcma, liconv, lttf, I supposed iconv and ttf is refered to libiconv and ttf refered to TrueType font.

My plugins are fine, they are really fast on commandline. I also have noticed that the latency drops to 4 secs if I have around 1700 services running. So it looks like Nagios has some problems when the amount of services go over 2000 over something like that. I'v read something with the USE_MEMORY_PERFORMANCE_TWEAKS. But even that option does not do anything better with the latency. I also have read that there are many people who has far more hosts and services checks than I have without any performance problems.

It seems that the scheduler of nagios roles over itself if the count of services is to big. Therefore we decided to install another nagios process with different configs in a different directory. So we splitted our nagios like our networks. One Nagios (nagios-1) for Network A and another one (nagios-2) for Network B. So our count of services per nagios instance was decreased and it runs so far so good. All this was under version 1.2. In the past I posted some questions about our problem but there were no good answer on it, so today I just only know that it works for us. So far for this. I hope nobody will geek me when I take your post to describe some problems we now have on testing above doing with different instances on the same host with nagios 2.02b. When I fire up my instance "nagios-1" with around 1600 Service Checks it runs very fine with nearly no latency. But when I fire up the "nagios-2" with around 1850 services this instance runs very fast to latencies around 100 seconds. When I now stop the first instance the latencies on the second one decrease down to < 5 seconds. Perhaps some of the developer can tell me if I am right in theory that (one of) the working thread(s) with the scheduling queue can see the other scheduling queue? Are the possibly the same? I am not a programmer but I can think about following: Starting nagios-1 will create the scheduling queue and gives it to RAM. So far so good. There it is and the worker runs through it and executes the checks. I am now afraid that when I start my second nagios process this will also create the scheduling queue into the system RAM but that the two proceses don't have their own queues... Hope that anybody understand what I mean. Best regards Hendrik Mieden, Rick van der schrieb: We have heavy performance problems with Nagios.

I know on the Cacti message boards there have been discussions on how to do this. Really, the only agreed upon method was to use both at the same time, but for the items that Cacti polls, use some kind of wrapper to submit passive checks to Nagios (if it's something you want to alert on). As far as integration, the best I found was to use notes_url (in hostextinfo) and point that at the cacti graphs page for that server. -- -JasonQ- ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

That's what I have to do in my own chosen language, Nornglish, on my own test machine ...

Is your nagios host listed as an allowed_hosts in nrpe.cfg? Can you manually telnet from your nagios host to your nrpe host on port 5666? Have you tried enabling debug in nrpe.cfg?

Yeah. It's spitting out what you want to know in your own language, Franglais. If you look at what you're telling it to do and what it says it can't do, one in English and one in French, you can fathom it out for yourself: ?No program or service of that type at ...?.

Hi, I have been using Nagios for a long time but have just switched to Nagios v2.0b3 and I'm re-working my config files a little bit. A large portion of my monitoring is done via the NRPE plugins. And a large portion of the NRPE checks are common across all of the machines. So my structure is as follows...I have all of the Sun servers in a hostgroup SUN-Servers, I have definitions for about 8 common NRPE checks that are assigned to the SUN-Servers hostgroup. So far so good, with very little in the way of definitions I have 100's of checks defined. Now to my problem, I would like to define a service dependancy for all NRPE services to be dependant on one check_nrpe_daemon check. So when the daemon is down I don't receive multiple alerts for every NRPE check. So I'd like to get the equivalent of this: define servicedependency{ dependent_host_name DBDEV dependent_service_description / Root Slice host_name DBDEV service_description Check NRPE inherits_parent 1 execution_failure_criteria o,w,u,c,p notification_failure_criteria o,w,u,c,p } For every common NRPE service for every host in the SUN-Servers group. Now if I use the SUN-Servers hostgroup in the servicedependency definition it makes every NRPE service dependant on EVERY host's NRPE Daemon...this obviously isn't what I want. The best solution I have to this problem is to NOT send notifications for UNKNOWN service checks for every NRPE check except the daemon check. But I'd like to know if there's a better way to apply service dependany's in this situation. Thanks in advance for any help. PS. Below I've included the relevant entries for one host/NRPE check definitions. Ray, define service { use generic-diskcheck hostgroup_name SUN-Servers service_description Check NRPE check_command check_nrpe_daemon } define service { use generic-diskcheck hostgroup_name SUN-Servers service_description / Root Slice check_command check_nrpe!check_disk1! } define service{ name generic-diskcheck use generic-service is_volatile 0 check_period 24x7 max_check_attempts 3 normal_check_interval 10 retry_check_interval 1 contact_groups office-admins notification_interval 1440 notification_period 8x5 notification_options w,u,c,r register 0 } define service{ name generic-service active_checks_enabled 1 passive_checks_enabled 1 parallelize_check 1 obsess_over_service 1 check_freshness 0 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 hostgroup{ hostgroup_name SUN-Servers alias All SUN Solaris Servers } define host{ name generic-dev-host parents MFSW_SVR01 notifications_enabled 1 event_handler_enabled 1 flap_detection_enabled 1 process_perf_data 1 retain_status_information 1 retain_nonstatus_information 1 check_command check-host-alive max_check_attempts 10 notification_interval 60 notification_period 8x5 notification_options d,u,r hostgroups DEV-Servers,Office,SUN-Servers contact_groups office-admins register 0 } define host { use generic-dev-host host_name DBDEV alias Development ColdFusion & Oracle address dbdev.mapfusion.com } _______________________________ Ray Ward System Administrator MapFusion Technologies Inc. mailto:ray.ward at mapfusion.com http://www.mapfusion.com _______________________________ NOTICE: This message is intended only for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed; and it, including any attachments, may contain information that is privileged, confidential and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.

Message-ID: <1119889397.1105.237247823@webmail.messagingengine.com> I'm looking for some sort of smart CPU monitor. I'd like to have something that does a baseline of the server CPU utilization for a given time period (at least a months worth of data). Then compare the current CPU utilization to that if it is a specified amount differing notify. So say for example that every night for 1 hour I run a system backup that pegs the CPU at 100% (this is at different times for our servers), or it could be some month end processing job, or an end of the week processing job. I want the monitor to be smart enough to not send an alert because this is normal system activities. And obviously it has to hit this threshold a determined amount of times before it sends the alert. What are other people doing for CPU monitoring on Unix systems? Does this approach seam reasonable? Sometimes it's OK for it to be utilized, I just want to know when it's acting odd. I don't currently do any SNMP monitoring, but it is in the plans for the future.

Message-ID: Hi there, I check our CPU's on some win2000 boxes via SNMP. I made a script to get all cpu values and then some thresholds. If the cpu(s) hits 100 % it does not make an alarm at first, but if it hits 100 % during two samples it will - like if a process goes crazy. Then I have some warning thresholds like 85 to 99 => Warning If you have some heavy load hours during NOT workinghours you can make a check_time period called WorkingHours like its called default by Ethan ... ;- ) Anyway you will have to fiddle with this stuff, and perhaps you will never make a bulletproof solution - but it gets pretty close..

I'd like to have something that does a baseline of the server CPU utilization for a given time period (at least a months worth of data). Then compare the current CPU utilization to that if it is a specified amount differing notify. So say for example that every night for 1 hour I run a system backup that pegs the CPU at 100% (this is at different times for our servers), or it could be some month end processing job, or an end of the week processing job. I want the monitor to be smart enough to not send an alert because this is normal system activities. And obviously it has to hit this threshold a determined amount of times before it sends the alert. What are other people doing for CPU monitoring on Unix systems? Does this approach seam reasonable? Sometimes it's OK for it to be utilized, I just want to know when it's acting odd. I don't currently do any SNMP monitoring, but it is in the plans for the future.

The test functionality you are looking for doesn't exist in that plugin. I think it would be pretty straightforward to write a small specialized perl plugin to do that though using the LWP module.

Don't know anything about Asterisk, but it sounds like this might be better handled through the use of eventhandlers in Nagios. I assume there's some type of commandline routine you can run that changes the routing in Asterisk -- just turn that into an eventhandler and you're done.

Right now during normal office hours I have notifications sent to a central e-mail queue that the IT department monitors. During off hours notifications are sent to a cell phone using the service & host "e-pager" command. If it was the case that the Internet connection went down and Nagios could not send notifications through e-mail or by text messaging I would like to have a backup where it would use a dialup connection to send out the alert. We are running Nagios 1.2 on FreeBSD 4.10 Has anyone setup this type of notification method? Any help would be much appreciated.

For critical systems, we want an email and a page after 15 mins. For non-critical systems, we always want an email, but we only want a page if it's during daylight hours Monday-Friday. This is all pretty painless with escalations. The only problem I have is that if a non-critical system goes down on a weekend, I would like a page as soon as we hit the daylight Monday-Friday hours. According to the 2.0b3 docs on notifications: Note: If the time period filter is not passed, Nagios will reschedule the next notification for the host or service (if its in a non-OK state) for the next valid time present in the time period. This does not appear to be true for escalations. Is there a way to make an escalation schedule a notification for a contact's next available time period? Thanks, Jesse ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

As far as I understood, the pipe method is not suiteable when you have a lot of performance data, because for every data it opens a new process, when you haven't configured Nagios with embedded perl and perlcache. Maybe you should try out another method.

The plugin fails with "socket timeout after 10 seconds" when monitoring a remote Postfix server, while this server is happily routing mail at the same time, even back to the server running Nagios, as you can see in the logs (as line breaks would render the logs harder to read, I'll attach them instead of including them in the message body). My Nagios configuration is as follows: define command{ command_name check_smtp command_line $USER1$/check_smtp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ } define service{ use generic-service name foo-24x7 is_volatile 0 check_period 24x7 max_check_attempts 4 normal_check_interval 5 retry_check_interval 1 contact_groups foo-admins notification_options w,u,c,r notification_interval 480 notification_period 24x7 register 0 } define service{ use foo-24x7 host_name foo service_description SMTP check_command check_smtp } I've tried increasing the SMTP plugin timeout up to 30 seconds (10 is the default), but I still receive the misleading messages. Does anybody else see a similar behaviour? What can I do to get the SMTP plugin working correctly? -- Mit freundlichen Gr??en / Sincerely Dipl. Inform.

The service could not be found! You haven't provided much information on your installation but at a guess, you have something that is writing bad data to nagios.cmd. Do you have something submitting passive service checks? Have you mistakenly configured some application to write to nagios.cmd when it shouldn't be? I would have expected something like 'os/etc/switch_conf_195.220.107.207' to ring a bell for you. Where does that come from? > second i use nagios to get vlan information and to see it in the nagios > interface i have to recompile nagios with MAX_PLUGIN_OUTPUT larger > when i launch nagios i have > > Warning: Size of service_message struct (4252 bytes) is > POSIX-guaranteed > atomic write size (512 bytes).

Seems like that would correlate nicely with the problems that you're seeing above (specifically service checks being mangled). This last might be better for nagios-devel but I'll bet that the max size and the warning above are there for a reason. 4K is a _lot_ for plugin return data and I'll bet there are other variables that you'll need to adjust to support that, if it's possible at all. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

I used Nagios (with NRPE) to monitor a server located on the same network and everything was OK. But, I had to change the loc ation of this server (on another network). Now I get the well-known message : CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake - I changed the nrpe-xinetd script in order to math the new IP adress - I modified my hosts.cfg file -I also changed my nrpe.cfg file but i think it was not necessary What did i forget ?

This might be Nagios 1, right? The SQL backend isn't there any more for Nagios 2.

Message-ID: <54654.127.0.0.1.1119990669.squirrel@bols> Greetings to all, In my test configuration, I have one server as the distributed node and the other as the master node. The distributed node does all of the checking and sends its check results to the master node via NSCA. The checks are sent (and received) in a normal fashion to the master node, but for some reason I am having issues with the freshness threshold on the master server. The nagios.log excerpt below states that the check is stale by "7" seconds even though there is a threshold of "200" seconds. Therefore, I believe that I must be overlooking something in the configuration and would appreciate any advice. (As a side note, quite a few services go into the stale mode at once, and not just this single check. However, not *every* service immediately goes stale.) >From nagios.log on the master server: "Warning: The results of service 'time' on host 'server1' are stale by 7 seconds (threshold=200 seconds). I'm forcing an immediate check of the service." Alas, I have a few questions: a. Where exactly is this "7" coming from (or calculated) in the configuration? b. Where exactly is this "200" coming from (or calculated) in the configuration? c. Is there a recommended complete (yet barebones) master and distributed node configuration reference for nagios.cfg, hosts.cfg, and services.cfg? d.

I have about 50 machines/network devices with about 500 services over 3 sites connected via VPNs. I was running all these sites with seperate instances of Nagios, but am now trying to get the distributed monitoring working. For the most part it seems to be good, except that service checks go stale before the remote server has a chance to send a passive check result. The problem with this is I get a few false positive notifications. (not good at 3am in the morning) The other weird thing is, that the Master host tries to do an 'active' check of the service, even when active checks are disabled for that service on the master. Why? I have been playing around with a lot of the timings for various things, and scouring the mailing lists for other peoples adventures trying to piece it all together, with only so much luck. I think the key is to carefully, record and trial different values for various timeouts until you have a set that is working for your environment, but YMMV, as I have found. Good luck, and keep us posted. Greg. On 6/29/05, Bob Johnson wrote: > Greetings to all, > > In my test configuration, I have one server as the distributed node and > the other as the master node.

Is the master host running NSCA under xinetd? If so, check your logs to see if xinetd thinks you're getting so many connections there's a denial of service attack and disabling NSCA for a while. There is something in the NSCA docs or in the Nagios FAQs about twiddling xinetd's limits if this is happening to you. You might also want to consider the values of check_interval on the two machines. > The problem with this is I get a few false positive notifications. > (not good at 3am in the morning) The other weird thing is, that the > Master host tries to do an 'active' check of the service, even when > active checks are disabled for that service on the master. Why? Because that's how it's designed to work. It's explained in the documentation about passive and distributed monitoring. -- Paul Allen Softflare Support ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

I had removed it from inetd and now nsca just runs as a daemon. I have changed the values of normal_check_interval on several services, but have had limited success. On your last point, "only if freshness checking is enabled"... I see my problem. (Thanks for pointing out the flaw in my reading ability.) Of course this doesn't mean I will now go and turn off freshness checking, but do have some more timeouts to play with. Greg. On 6/29/05, Paul L.

The script does : 1) Get the snmp table with index and description 2) Match with the processes 3) Get the status of the selected processes I've done it like this because it takes a lot of time (and ressources on the remote host) to get the whole process table. Problem : if a process on the remote host die at step 2, then the index won't be valid and you will get an error at step 3.... I've added a "-g" option wich gets the entire table at step 1 : it can help, but in case processes are dying/respawning very fast the problem will still be here.

Admittedly I've only got one out of 10 hosts I'm monitoring complaining. The host in question is running net-snmp-5.0.9-2.30E.15 (Redhat) and 2.4-21 kernel. Have you seen similar compaints? Is there a workaround (that doesn't involve me upgrading the far end system)?

Thanks for the prompt and detailed reply. I appreciate it. I'll try -g. Have you considered using: host.hrSystem.hrSystemProcesses.0 ? This seems to report a process count, but I'm thinking you discounted this for some reason, so am interested if that's the case - was it to do with dealing with multiprocessors? cheers jamie > > Patrick > nagios AT proy dot org > > > -----Message d'origine----- > De : Jamie Baddeley [mailto:jamie.baddeley at vpc.co.nz] > Envoy? : mardi 28 juin 2005 21:58 > ? : Patrick Proy > Cc : nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net > Objet : ERROR: running table : Received noSuchName(2) error-status > aterror-index 32. > > Hi Patrick, > > I'm using your check_snmp_process.pl to do some process count checking on a > variety of Linux hosts. > > >From time to time I get the error reponse shown above.

Mr Aait didn't... Thanks for your reply. I have already considered this solution but this is not the one I prefer. If I choose this solution, that means I would have failed in the optimal configuration of Nagios (I can't admit it ;) ). Also my script can't be used anymore if Ihave two macros containing strings. The best solution is to correcftly configure Nagios command line and Iknow there 's a way to do that. It's not a problem of perl code but Nagios configuration (it's why I post in the nagios mailing list and not perl one). Finally, I'm not a perl coder as you have seen ;) (I prefer C lang. but in this case I do not decide any).

Put single quotes around the macros (outside the dollar signs). This will fail if any of the parameters contains single quotes as well, but will work otherwise, unless your shell is broken.

Not that I've noticed, although I haven't browsed all the translation files. Single and double quotes are intentionally left out from plugin output for this precise reason.

You may intentionally omit quotes for that reason. Maybe some other people do too. I just had a look at the plugin developer guidelines and this requirement is not mentioned. I'd guess that in the majority of cases the reason there are no quotes in plugin output is because the text happened not to require them, not because the text was written to avoid using them. Perhaps when the guidelines are updated to indicate that -W is reserved for POSIX extensions the section on plugin output can also be updated to indicate which characters should not appear in plugin output. -- Paul Allen Softflare Support ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

Message-ID: <3d2eb72a05062914147671cac1@mail.gmail.com> After a couple months of development, a new LICENSE change, and some more things up my sleeve, Fruity 1.0 is coming. No longer will Fruity 1.0 be confined to just configuring nagios, as it will be extensible in creating tools to configure anything regarding your network. And it could be used to not just configure, but monitor and run diagnostic tools, directly from fruity. :) So just to prove that development has been ongoing, direct yourself to the Fruity homepage at (http://fruity.sf.net). There's a list of screenshots there for you to gawk at. Also, let me get you to salivate. I've been busy building an alternative to the nagios cgi interface. Let me just say this, for large networks, it's fast, it's extensible, and it allows you to navigate through your network in a radically different way. ;) Be prepared for that as well. Just wanted to keep you all posted on my development efforts.

Looks like you are hitting the instances maximum, rather than the cps (connections per second limit). Check that your nsca calls are not actually exiting in a timely manner -- instances normally defaults to 60. Maybe you're getting a LOT of nsca logs coming in? Maybe something is blocking? Then, you can add 'instances = 200' (for example) to your nsca service definition to increase the max number of concurrent instances of nsca. We use 'instances = UNLIMITED' (OK, risky, I know) because of the huge number of nsca alerts coming in.

Message-ID: It actually doesn't matter if there's a physical hostname, as long as you don't use $HOST*$ as any of the arguments in checkcommand. So I just create a pretend hostname that relates to what the machine is for. Maybe something like "emulator". define host { name emulator etc,etc } define service { name emulator-check checkcommand check_emulator } Then your checkcommand could just be something like: define checkcommand { command_name check_emulator command_line check_emulator.pl $ARG1$ } (or something like that).

Thanks for the prompt and detailed reply. I appreciate it. I'll try -g. Have you considered using: host.hrSystem.hrSystemProcesses.0 ? This seems to report a process count, but I'm thinking you discounted this for some reason, so am interested if that's the case - was it to do with dealing with multiprocessors? cheers jamie > > Patrick > nagios AT proy dot org > > > -----Message d'origine----- > De : Jamie Baddeley [mailto:jamie.baddeley at vpc.co.nz] Envoy? : mardi > 28 juin 2005 21:58 ? : Patrick Proy Cc : > nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net > Objet : ERROR: running table : Received noSuchName(2) error-status > aterror-index 32. > > Hi Patrick, > > I'm using your check_snmp_process.pl to do some process count checking > on a variety of Linux hosts. > > >From time to time I get the error reponse shown above.

I am not sure what host_name is supposed to be or why I even need to configure one in nagios. In this instance, it doesn't seem to make sense to me. I am not checking a host. I am checking a service which is handled by a cluster of hosts. The IP address that the actual test script connects to has nothing to do with my app. There is no need to ping any specific server here to see if it is alive. I just want to run the test script at regular intervals. ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

I guess it depends what you are trying to achieve. If you just want to see if a Remote Desktop session is active you could approach this from a different direction. Instead of looking at it from the network side you could run NSclient or the like on the Windows host and monitor the event log or set up a WMI script to monitor Remote Desktop activities. The NSClient could then execute a check on this log file or using this script.

I take it you're on a fairly green limb in the network management tree then. Services in a network are provided by one or more devices.

If you post any more nonsense on this subject claiming that the check doesn't really belong to a host, I think you'll be pretty thoroughly flamed.

No need for a script even if you're prepared to very roughly use grep: snmpwalk -v1 -cpublic .tcpConnState | (grep 'established' | grep '3389') Or thinking about it if you didn't want to pipe two greps together you could use sed: snmpwalk -v1 -cpublic .tcpConnState | sed -e '/established/!d' -e '/3389/!d' Either of these would spit out all established connections on port 3389.
