Distributed Monitoring

[InnovationsTech, Matthew Thomas]

Below is snippets from configuration. Is there a way to debug send_nsca
?  I tried snoop and the port, tcpdump and the port, or tail on the
nagios.log file and I don't see when it's submitting the results. But
according to the website, they are updating every 4-6 minutes.

 

<Nagios.cfg>

command_check_interval=-1

interval_length=30

log_external_commands=1

log_passive_checks=1

 

 

<services.cfg>

        check_period                    24x7

        max_check_attempts              2      

        normal_check_interval           3        '90 Seconds per check

        retry_check_interval            1         '30 second till retry
on soft fail

 

 

Thanks for the assistance.

Results will be getting sent to your ocsp command every time a check
result comes back on the distributed server if it's obsessing.  Are you
sure the checks are running every 90 seconds?  Or, have you set a long
command_check_interval in nagios.cfg?

I've setup a distributed monitoring server. One issue I'm seeing is that
the distributed server only updates the central server every 4-6
minutes. 

I have service checks running every 90 seconds on the distributed
server. I have it set to obsess over services.

 

Is there any way to adjust how often the send_nsca utility is actually
ran, or adjust how often the distributed server updates the central
server?

I have freshness turned on, and it always wants to go out and get the
results, because it thinks they are stale after 2-3 min. (threshold set
to 450sec). But this creates double traffic, and kind of defeats the
reason for distributed monitoring.

 

Thank You,

Matt
