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 could be some thing like check-http-server!8088 Sort of an alias of your choosing if you will, as opposed to the literal command_line in checkcommands.cfg -Jim ________________________________ From: Cam [mailto:cameron.matheson at gmail.com] Sent: Wed 6/15/2005 10:23 AM To: nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] passing command line parameters to plugins Hi, I'm trying to use the check_http plugin to check a webserver running on an unusual port number. the syntax at the command line is check_http -p . to get it working in my services.cfg, i just use the literal command-line approach w/ the check_command (e.g., check_command "/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_http -p 2584 aspapp1". 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.

I have a couple of questions regarding using ncsa. The 3 servers that I want to monitor ( I want them to send me requests ) are behind a firewall that I don't control. I want the messages to be encrypted. What port do I ask the firewall guy to open on the remote end of things? What do I need to do to make sure that the messages are encrypted? Is there a way to send check_load data in ncsa like there is in nrpe?
