Mine is turned on by default (retain_state_information=3D1) and I don't
plan to change it either. ;-)

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 at
nsclient and nrpe_nt and I don't see how it can be done. I would prefer not
having to specify a different service for each partition on all servers on
the network.
 
Does anyone know of a tool, or how to do a disk check what will check all
partitions?
 
Thanks,
Dan

Hi...

 

I would like to know what the following message means...

 

"System call sent warnings to stderr"

 

This occurs when I'm trying to monitor Total Process on a remote host using
NRPE.

 

To test, I'm typing the command from the Console of the Nagios Server. This
message is the that I receive on Nagios screen.

 

Thanks a lot.

 

Fabiano Martins

Try a wrapper script which checks to see what time it is, and then
passes the appropriate argument to your actual check command based on
that.

Subject: [Nagios-users] SSL handshake

Hi,

Please delete that last email, RE.

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.

Subject: [Nagios-users] SSL handshake

The version of check_nrpe on the server is 1.8 and does not support ssl, but

I am using check_nrpe_20 which is the same version as on the remote host and

does support SSL.  Why would the SSL error say anything about check_nrpe.  
It should be saying check_nrpe_20 could not complete the handshake.

Hi,

Do I need to add another /etc/service port to listen to to allow=

 ssl?   check_nrpe_20 and my nrpe daemon support ssl.  They are=

 both version 2 and have SSL available.  	=09

'Why does "ps -aux" complain about a bogus '-'?

'According to the POSIX and UNIX standards, the above=20

Hi...

=20

I would like to know what the following message means...

=20

"System call sent warnings to stderr"

=20

This occurs when I'm trying to monitor Total Process on a remote host
using NRPE.

=20

To test, I'm typing the command from the Console of the Nagios Server.
This message is the that I receive on Nagios screen.

Thanks a lot.

Anything that you can get a metric out of - via command line, via some api 
can be turned into a plugin.

verify if tcp wrappers is enabled on xinetd - if so add monitoring host to

I want that "HOST B" appears in state UNREACHEABLE when service VPN of
host "HOST A" is in state CRITICAL.
I can do something like this?

Hi Subhendu			=09



Thanks for the response.

There is a bug I found that I want to report.  When the file nrpe=

 is created out of source it call the service ncsa or something.=

  After changing that to nrpe everything seems to be working now.

Make sure you have the correct hosts in your nrpe.cfg file under
"allowed hosts".  That's usually why I have that problem.

But yes opening the port would help too. :)

Hi all,

Well I'm not able to telnet host 5666 so that's odd.

The simple way;

Add HOST C which has the VPN check as its only service, and also as its 
host check_command. Make HOST B the child of HOST C. When VPN goes down, 
B goes unreachable.

If possible, check the VPN IP of HOST A as the address of HOST C.
