Nagios father, script son ??

[Todd Barbera]

/etc/init.d/nagios stop

sleep 30

ps -ef|grep nagios

echo "now stopping sendmail"

/etc/init.d/sendmail restart

sleep 30

echo "now calling named"

/etc/init.d/named

echo "now starting nagios"

/etc/init.d/nagios start

 

This should give you a pretty good idea as to where the script is failing,
based on what echo statements get processed. If you're not running the
script interactively then redirect the output to a log, i.e.,
/usr/local/nagios/bin/mynagios_script >
/usr/local/nagios/tmp/mynagios_script.log. These are basic script debugging
techniques. You may do well getting yourself a good shell scripting
reference guide.

Hi Todd,

I tried your hint, but isn't ok.

Wath do you mean with "you could put in a process grep in the script" ?

Thank you

Enrico

Hi Enrico,
 
Try putting in the following:
 
/etc/init.d/nagios stop
sleep 30
echo "now to stop sendmail"
/etc/init.d/sendmail restart
sleep 30
echo "now to call named"
/etc/init.d/named
 
This will help determine if the script is truly dying because the nagios
process stops. 30 seconds should be far more time needed for nagios to
shutdown, although I suppose you could put in a process grep in the script
to verify.

Hi to all
 
I have this problem
 
Nagios executes a script.
This script have to restart the Nagios process in this way:
 
/etc/init.d/nagios stop
/etc/init.d/sendmail restart
/etc/init.d/named
/etc/init.d/nagios start
 
The problem is that when the script execute this sequence, it
executes only:
 
/etc/init.d/nagios stop
/etc/init.d/sendmail stop
 
It seems that the father Nagios execute the son script, but this
script dies when the father dies (Nagios).
 
 
Is there a way to run the son script separately from the father
Thak you
 
Enrico
