I also looked under the Linux plugins and misc plugins and only found a check_snmp_process.pl script but it doesn't recognize the process. Thanks in advance.

Yet only in the special groupings have the service check definitions. Then I would look to see if when I click on hostgroup cab1 in the cgis if I get the computers with the right services..

I rotate my logs daily, and at this moment I have some older logs in my /var/log/nagios2/archives folder. Now, when I use the Event Log in the webconsole I can see the log of today without problems. When I click on the arrow to go an older log, IE jumps to a CPU usage of 99%. I kept waiting for a couple of minutes, but nothing happened. The log of yesterday is only 80K in filesize, so really small and easy to process. The strange thing is that it used to work, I never had this problem. Something's fishy here...

I did changed to the below one & it's working now. command[check_ping]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ping -H localhost $ARG1$c $ARG2$ -p 5 Can you please give me idea, how to integrated Nagios with MRTG?

OK this is what's happening. Firstly, check_ping on your Nagios machine is ignored by nrpe - as that contains it's own command definitions. So, here: command[check_ping]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ping -H $ARG1$ -w $ARG2$ -c $AGR3$ -p 5 it's expecting the hostname as argument 1, the warning threshold as argument 2 and the critical threshold as argument 3. (depending on what your check_nrpe command reads (something like "check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 5666 -c $ARG1$"), what Nagios is actually passing is: "check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60%", so your client machine is reading the host (argument 1) as 100.0,20%, the warning threshold (argument 2) as 500.0,60% and the critical threshold as blank. Also notice your typo in command[check_ping]: $AGR3$ should be $ARG3$ Andy.

I have read all the Nagios docs at least twice and would like to think I have a reasonable understanding of the whole thing but after confirming that I had indeed done it the way all the users on the mailing-list thought correct as well as a forum admin for the nagios forums, I came to the conclusion that it may not be my nagios_check_command that is at fault. I've disabled the check_command and it no longer gives me the warning in the web interface. In fact since doing that I can actually apply host commands via the interface. Nice. On a related note, this stopped me from entering comments in the interface even when everything seemed to be correctly set up regarding the cgi auth. Still can't schedule downtime, possibly because the check isn't running but that's another story for another thread...

The freshness threshold is set to 2000 seconds, so the service stays passive, when everything runs as it should. The check_command is defined as check_dummy, which generates the message "No data from host" when executed actively. This works fine for nearly every host. But there is one host, which is not different from the others, that makes trouble. The data is coming in every 5 minutes, but Nagios keeps flipping between active and passive mode: root at giedi3[nagios]# tail -10000 nagios.log | grep rana | grep disk | naglog.pl | cut -c-100 [01.09. 12:29:04] EXTERNAL COMMAND: PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT;rana;Local disk;0;DISK OK -

Just another idea here: If you got smarttools installed, and net snmpd running you can use "extended" net snmp checks. In your snmpd.conf add something like this: (change your device settings of course) sh SMART_health_disk0 /usr/sbin/smartctl -H -d cciss,0 /dev/cciss/c0d0 |grep Health sh SMART_drive_temp_disk0 /usr/sbin/smartctl -A -d cciss,0 /dev/cciss/c0d0 | egrep 'Current' | sed 's/^.*:....[^0-9]//' | sed 's/[^0-9]*$//' Uh, you might want to refine those sed statements to something more efficient. When you this up and running, just use check_snmp to get you values. /andr? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

A few possibilities: 1. Your cgi.cfg file is configured to bypass the usual access restrictions 2, The user you are logged in with is a contact for those hosts, or services on them. 3.

I'd recommend to check the objects.cache file and see if this host is actually set up identical to the others.

I do that on a few machines. The only potential snag (one that I have to deal with) is if you have Nagios boxes running different OS versions, in which case synching your plugins can be a bad idea.

Patrick, I assume you must have your two nagios server co-located at the same site and connected to the same switches. Otherwise do you have a method for rewriting your configs to change the parent directives to match the view from your backup/remote nagios machine. Also if you have local commands that are run on the nagios server rather than remote probes (such as nrpe or check_by_ssh), how do you define these entries in your services file? E.G. I have a stanza define service{ service_description DiskRootCheck hostgroup_name standard_linux_services,!standard_linux_services -dev host_name !nag1 use generic-service check_command check_by_ssh!check_disk!-w 10% -c 5% -p / servicegroups check_by_ssh normal_check_interval 2 } define service{ service_description DiskRootCheck hostgroup_name standard_linux_services-dev use generic-service check_command check_by_ssh!check_disk!-w 10% -c 5% -p / servicegroups check_by_ssh contact_groups renesys-admins-nopage normal_check_interval 2 } define service{ service_description DiskRootCheck host_name nag1 use generic-service check_command check_local_disk!10%!5%!-p / } I need to change all the "nag1" (which is the primary nagios server) host names to "nag2" which is the backup server (located 1500 miles from the primary server). How are yours set up so that you don't have to change the config files and still cross monitor the machines? -- rouilj John Rouillard =========================================================================== My employers don't acknowledge my existence much less my opinions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

E.G.

For example: define serviceescalation{ host_name webserver service_description HTTP first_notification 2 last_notification 0 notification_interval 30 contact_groups yourcontact } Would first notify according the notification of the service. On the second notification this escalation will take over and send it forever to the contact group defined. Setting last notification to 0 means it will continue to use this object configuration. You can do neat things like make the first one go to e-mail, make the second to fourth attempts go to pagers and so on. Check out the docs to get more details.

I have not attempted two duplicate master servers in different locations -- too many complications there. I have dual master servers in one location, and slave machines in other locations that can monitor independently, and have their own web interfaces enabled. Under normal circumstances, the masters do all the alerting, and that's where people use the web interface (since those boxes are the place where you can see everything in one place). However, in the case of a failure of one of those masters, the slaves turn notifications on and begin notifying independently. Nearly all of my checks are designed to be performed from the slave servers and submitted via on ocsp command to the masters, so they continue working if the masters die. Each of the slaves monitors each of the masters, so they all have their own independent view of whether their attached to the Nagios "cluster" or not. Parent/Child relationships are set up based on how they are viewed from the slave boxes doing the monitoring. All of my checks are set up with templates (e.g., "slave1-service, slave2-service, etc." that may or may not be defined differently on different hosts. In your case. I might define "host_name" as nag1 in a slave1-service, and nag2 in a slave2-service. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

The 'systrace' thing went over my head I'm afraid and the Solaris man page for that command isn't helping me much. To make things clearer, the setup I'm proposing is this: 1. # /usr/local/sbin/visudo ... nagios ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_logfiles -f /usr/local/nagios/etc/check_logfiles.cfg 2. # vi /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg ... command[check_logfiles]=/usr/local/bin/sudo /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_logfiles -f /usr/local/nagios/etc/check_logfiles.cfg 3. # grep nagios /etc/passwd nagios:x:1123:100:Nagios Remote User:/usr/local/nagios:/usr/bin/bash Note to Hari: my understanding is that sudo won't work for account that doesn't have a valid shell. Certainly all my testing led me to that conclusion. 4. # passwd -l nagios It's not clear to me exactly what the security risk is. The idea is that someone may gain access to an unprivileged account on the system and then use this access and this Nagios plugin to cause mailicious damage? Or to break the root account?

Yes, that's how you would check virtual hosts.

Your users do do not care what piece of iron holds a particular service. They only care about the services and so is Nagios. Host checks are a different bal game with Nagios as one may learn from this list archives. So you define websites as services. Like: define service{ use linux-counter-template host_name gimel.counter.li.org service_description HTTP-counter.li.org check_command check_http_url!counter.li.org!/index.php contact_groups linux-counter } define service{ use linux-counter-template host_name gimel.counter.li.org service_description HTTP-i18n.counter.li.org check_command check_http_url!i18n.counter.li.org!/index.php contact_groups linux-counter } define command { command_name check_http_url command_line $USER1$/check_http -H $ARG1$ -u $ARG2$ } Hugo. -- I hate duplicates.

But in the real world the equasion 1 host = 1 service is almost never valid. After all there are disk involved, perhaps a database and it is quite likely you want some means of maintaining them which could mean ssh, ..... I think you are focussed to much on this host thing. If a normal check_http does not work in a host definition then the website has host restrictions. And so you have cut loose the 1on1 link between hardware and services before you even went to look with nagios. Hugo. -- I hate duplicates.

What you're trying to do just isn't possible with the current Nagios version. However, it seems it would only be slightly less cumbersome, if it all, to have a service definition template set up so that when a new host is set up, you'd just have to add the following: define service { host_name new_host check_command check_virtual_host!www.yahoo.com } Sure, it's not a one-liner, but it's not far from it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

That should attempt to resolve any dependencies that you have to fulfill in order to compile nagios*.

Hi Marc, I checked the permissions, but could not find anything wrong. My archives directory, and the files in it have the same permissions as the current nagios.log But even if it was a permissions problem, my guess would be that firefox wouldn't work either ?

Looks ok so far, you just have to make sure of one BIG issue. /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_logfiles MUST NOT be owned by the nagios user/group and the nagios user/group MUST NOT have write permissions. Imagine someone doing: "copy /usr/bin/bash /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_logfiles" In regard to security of the plugin code itself, you're more or less on the safe side here. Since you "hardcoded" the parameters of the root call, you cannot suffer from buffer overflows caused my malicious parameters and exploiting the plugin via the logfiles itself is both most unlikely and secondly would mean someone already compromised the system - else he couldn't forge syslog entries ;) regards Sascha -- Sascha Runschke Netzwerk Management IT-Services ABIT AG i.

After /bin/falseing and locking the nagios account, the service check I have sudo NOPASSWDed still worked, and I cronned a job to get the date which ran every minute and output to a temp file. So it would seem that this is not correct. A valid shell is not required. Hari Sekhon ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

Actually, to nitpick a little :) I'd think it's entirely possible that sudo requires a valid shell, just like FTP and such. But in that case "valid" would mean "listed in /etc/shells" and not "working like a normal shell"... I'd have to check the man-page to be sure though.. Cheers!

Also, you could use sudo -s /bin/bash check_command so that you get the shell for that one command. The man page says you can use this to override the system set shell. If you find anything written anywhere about this then let me know. It's entirely possible that different versions have different quirks, this is not unknown in unixland... fyi my sudo -V gives me the version as "Sudo version 1.6.8p9" (lots of extras output omitted) -h -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

FreeNAC can be considered as having two phases. Initially, we have taken OpenVMPS (which provides MAC based access control), added a MySQL back end, a GUI, improved access control algorithms, scalability, redundancy, alerting etc. This tool has been published as OpenSource on FreeNAC.net. Next, we are testing 802.1x support by tying in FreeRadius (802.1x provides better security and is not limited to Cisco switches) and moving the Delphi GUI to a web based user interface. The 'plan' is for the project to move forward to eventually become THE OpenSource Enterprise tool for dynamic VLAN assignment and LAN/WLAN authentication. So, we wish to solicite community opinions, expertise, help and feedback. Are you interested in this tool, would you like to use it or even like to contribute to it (documentation, support, development, promotion, architecture, review...)?

And by 'valid' I didn't mean merely listed in /etc/shell; I meant a real shell like bash. However, I'm afraid I can't reproduce the problem at the moment, but I can say that I resorted to giving the nagios user a real shell only when I realised I needed to run a shell-script plugin as the root user. Someone explained to me: "It would be a security flaw for sudo to allow anything to run for a user who is not otherwise entitled to a real shell." I make no comment on the reasoning--consider it hearsay--but sure enough, it was the only way I could get my plugin to work. If I get a chance to reproduce the problem, I'll see what I can dig out about it.

Just started as a Nagios user so I am new on the list. I have nagios running and I also have a basic structure in place for sending SMS'es ( using smstools ). I need to expand it now because I have many people that want to be notified of only selected system information. At this point in time, all contacts are sent ALL information. So , bottom line is, I need to diffrentiate based on $USERNAME$ as defined in my contacts. define command{ command_name notify-by-sms command_line /usr/local/nagios/libexec/send_sms $HOSTNAME$ $HOSTSTATE$ $USERNAME } And then in ../libexec , my "send_sms"-script looks as follows: ( This is how it looks CURRENTLY ) #!/bin/bash HOST = $1 STATE = $2 ../sms/smstools/scripts/sendsms 0821111111 "$HOST $STATE" ../sms/smstools/scripts/sendsms 0822222222 "$HOST $STATE" [ entry for each cell-number ] I would like to make use of $USERNAME$ to control what gets sent to who. But, when I print the contents of $USERNAME$ in the script, it is either blank or it contains "-". I do have all my contacts defined in my ../minimal.cfg file OS = CentOS4.0 Nagios 2.4 smstools 2.2.4 a Pointer would be much appreciated ??? Thanks !

Stop the Nagios daemon and remove the "status.sav"-File in the Nagios-Log-Folder (/var/log/nagios/ over here :-) ). Startup again and Nagios should show all hosts/services as pending.

Make sure the plugin you're trying to run actually exists. This is most probably not what you see in the web server error log. The original problems seems to indicate that you did not set up the web server correctly. It's described in the manual, but basically you need to make sure that the nagios cgi-scripts are executed correctly. Permissions, ownership, selinux and AppArmor are some things to check first, then make sure the web server setup is thus that these scripts are actually executed and not simply sent when they are called. > what does this mean... > i am using the minimal.cfg file to get nagios up and running first ... Have you modified the configuration so that it actually uses the plugins you installed? Nagios really needs to be setup by you. > in the command prompt > services like ./check_ping & ./check_tcp are working fine for the > localhost...... As which user? Have you checked the paths?

Simple as that. You can then mailx all you like. If you have a decent distro like Gentoo this is the default, very simple. I use mailx and it works very simply, no fuss.

When I started out with Nagios I found it easier to start writing your own config files from scratch. In /etc/nagios, I created another directory called "nagios_cfg." In nagios_cfg, I created files named "services.cfg", "hosts.cfg", "commands.cfg", "contacts.cfg", "time.cfg" and defined all my own object definitions in the relevant files. Then, my nagios.cfg file (/etc/nagios/nagios.cfg) simply lists # OBJECT CONFIGURATION FILES cfg_dir=/etc/nagios/nagios_cfg with *all* cfg_file directives commented out. This way you avoid duplicates from the sample configuration data, and you know the layouts of the config files. Plus if you later add a configuration file (extension .cfg) in the nagios_cfg directory, you don't need to do anything but HUP the Nagios daemon to use it. You generally need to define: - hosts (host groups optional but useful) - services (service groups optional but useful) - commands - contacts - time periods (at minimum create a 24*7 time-period) It sounds difficult, but it isn't really - just look through the documentation at creating different objects, and you're done :) Andy. >> > Hi Andy > > Below is the output of command which you asked for > > [root at e nagios]# grep cfg_file nagios.cfg > # different config files by using multiple cfg_file statements here. > cfg_file=/etc/nagios/checkcommands.cfg > cfg_file=/etc/nagios/misccommands.cfg > cfg_file=/etc/nagios/minimal.cfg > > Kaushal > > !DSPAM:37,44fd6139143294224513357! > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

First, for each host that MRTG is monitoring, define one or more services in nagios (for example, if MRTG is monitoring the traffic on three ports of a router, you will need three services in Nagios). These services are then set up to use the check_mrtgtraf plugin. This plugin gives a result based on the traffic that MRTG is seeing. My check command for this is defined as follows: define command{ command_name check_mrtgtraf command_line $USER1$/check_mrtgtraf -F /usr/local/mrtg-2/ share/mrtg2/$ARG1$.log -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$ } where the arguments are the name of the log file MRTG creates for the device being monitored, the traffic level at which to give a warning status, and the traffic level at which to give a critical status (see check_mrtgtraf --help for more info). Depending on how you have this set up, you should be able to simplify the command somewhat by using the $HOSTADDRESS$ macro. The path to the log files will, of course, depend on your MRTG setup. To link the MRTG graphs in to the services, I simply used a serviceextinfo declaration for each service, and defined the notes_url property as the webpage that MRTG creates with the graph for the device. In my case, I put in a separate definition for each port pointing to the detail webpage for that port, you could, of course, choose to simply make one definition pointing to the summary webpage. This may not be the most "integrated" approach possible, but it does give me the ability to have nagios send me notifications (or whatever) based on the traffic information gathered by MRTG, as well as giving me easy access to the MRTG graphs from within nagios. You could take a similar approach using the check_mrtg plugin instead, if you wanted nagios to pay attention to information other than what the check_mrtgtraf plugin returns, but I haven't looked into this. A couple of caveats: 1) the version of the check_mrtgtraf plugin I had, for some reason, wasn't coded to ever set the output status to 'OK'. I don't know if that was a bug in the source code in general, or just the version I got, but I had to add code to set the output to OK and recompile before it would work for me. Simple enough (at least if you know basic C programing). 2) The plug in, as written, reports and sets warning states based on the incoming and outgoing traffic separately, with independent warning/critical thresholds for each. This may well be what you want. In our case, however, I was more interested in the TOTAL traffic- if the traffic in is 128 kb/s and the traffic out is also 128 kb/s, then our 256 kb/s link is saturated, and I wanted nagios to return critical, even though neither the inbound or the outbound traffic is by itself enough to warrant a critical state. Again, I was easily able to modify the plugin source to do this, but this may not be desirable in other situations. ------------------------------------- Israel Brewster Computer Support Technician Frontier Flying Service, Inc. 5245 Airport industrial Rd.

The notification command, when invoked, calls the way how to notify the contact from an LDAP backend. It's been lots of work (and is not yet finished or even documented) but it allows more flexibility. The simple solution would be shell script which, by checking the parameters for contact name, service name and whatever you like determines how to notify.

I've used other systems in the past and am trying to wrap my head around configuring Nagios. I have an array of application servers that I'd like to monitor. To begin with, a simple HTTP check to each will do. I have the hosts configured (they do nothing, I now know why), and want to configure the services. Now in my mind, I'd define one service (tim_http for example) and 'apply' it to each of the servers. Now looking at the service configuration, there is a place in there for 'host'. Does this mean that I have to define one service per host? So if I add 10 appservers I'd have 10 defined services all doing the same thing?

Let's say you have 20 application servers and you want to monitor the tim_http service on each one. The nagios way is to include each of the 20 application servers into what's referred to as a hostgroup and then when you define your service instead of referencing a host reference a hostgroup. For this example we'll assume all 20 applications servers have been setup and have host names that start with tim (ie: tim01, tim02, tim03, etc). In your hostgroups file you would have this entry define hostgroup { hostgroup_name tim-servers # Name is arbitrary and up to you alias The Tim servers # Ditto on alias members tim.* # Now we have an hostgroup which contains all the timXX hosts } In my services file I would have this entry (I'm assuming you'll have a service template called service-template define service { use service-template hostgroup_name tim-servers # Name of hostgroup from above example service_description Http Services on the Tim Farm contact_groups tim check_command check_tim_servers # This command is defined in the checkcommands.cfg file } So for situations where you have more than 1 host which needs to have a service checked hostgroups are the simple way to manage the services so you dont have to repeat the service over and over for each host. Once you setup a few the light bulb will go off. Anyhoo hope this helps. Deet.

Best to remove all but the latest x number of logs which amounts to x days of history. I expect that the history interface to nagios relies on these though so you might just want to move them to another location and then burn them off or something. -h ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

I have NRPE (0.8.0.2) running on two Windows 2003 Servers (SP2). I am using the check filecount script that I downloaded from Nagios Exchange to check various mail folders to see if there are files in them. This seems to work fine, although at least once a day each of the service checks that use NRPE give me an error "CHECK_NRPE: Socket timeout after 10 seconds." After a couple of hours this seems to clear itself, but it's very annoying. I can also clear it by restarting the NRPE service on the Windows Server (although the service does appear to be running when the problem occurs) Checking the event log on the windows server, I get messages like... NRPE_NT: Bad return code for [The check didn't respond within the timeout period!]: 5 I also get the same message in the NRPE_NT logfile. I've tried upping the timeout in the nrpe.cfg file (command_timeout=90) but this doesn't seem to have made any difference. Finally, there are normall no files in any of these directories when the checks are run - even when there are files present, there are no more than 20-30. It also doesn't seem to occur during a period of high activity on the servers (e.g. not during the backups...) Do I need to up a timeout on the nagios server? If so , where. Any suggestions that anyone has would be great. Alternatively if anyone has another method for monitoring particular directories for files using Nagios I'd like to hear it.

This is especially interesting if your dsl modem does not have a static IP adress. You can schedule the check with cron (linux) or the task scheduler (windows) and send your results to your Nagios server with send_nsca (which is part of NC_Net under windows; I don't recall where it can be found under linux though). Indeed, this means that your Nagios server is accessible from the outside (that is, behind - or being - a configurable firewall) so Giles' security recommendations still apply. -- Thibault GENESSAY ALIADIS www.aliadis.fr Tel. +33 4 72 13 90 40 Fax +33 4 74 22 00 09 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

Hi, did you try snmpget or snmpwalk to communicate with the UPS? It seems more like firewall/filter problem. I'd suggest checking if the community string is OK, UPS is configured to reply to snmp requests sent from your nagios box IP and firewalls and configured to accept this snmp traffic. -- Regards, Jedrzej Jajor Network Services Department Poznan Supercomputing and Networking Center 10 Noskowskiego Str., 61-704 Poznan, Poland tel. +48 61 858 20 36 fax. +48 61 855 13 68 e-mail: jedrzej at man.poznan.pl ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

It allows you to set certain users who are allowed to issue commands, and others who cannot. See http://altinity.blogs.com/dotorg/2006/02/index.html for details. It defaults to allowing users to make changes for compatibility, but it's easy to reverse if you want to lock everyone out and explicitly allow them. -- During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.

Message-ID: <873bb3b1s9.fsf@rgristroph-austin.ath.cx> Hi, When I visit my nagios from the web, it asks me for the user/pass and I log in successfully, except when I do "show host details" it says: "It appears as though you do not have permission to view information for any of the hosts you requested... If you believe this is an error, check the HTTP server authentication requirements for accessing this CGI and check the authorization options in your CGI configuration file." It also says "Logged in as ?" near the top of the page. However, if I run these commands as root: export REMOTE_USER="nagiosadmin" export REQUEST_METHOD="GET" export QUERY_STRING="hostgroup=all" ./status.cgi It prints to standard out a correct html page that says "Logged in as nagiosadmin". I can't find any useful information in the apache or nagios logs. Any suggestions on how this can be debugged ?

I realize that Make sure that you have the correct htaccess information for the _sbin_ directory, not (just) the share directory. Depending on how you configured it it's either in httpd.conf or an .htaccess file in ~nagios/sbin. It's the configuration for the sbin directory that's important. http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/installweb.html If you made the changes to httpd.conf, be sure you restarted apache after doing so. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

I'd like to know if anyone has experienced any problems running multiple vservers with Nagios before we announce this to customers. Obviously we're paying attention to what ports objects are binding to to ensure that they don't attempt to list on all IP addresses but I was curious what experience people have had with this.

On the off chance that you are, read on: I had this problem at the exact time that you first posted the issue. My fix was to cd dir && ./webinject.pl ....... which worked fine. Otherwise I kept getting this no output in the web interface which was really bugging me. webinject doesn't handle the full path for the config or test file. In fact it exits 0 which looks like a success but really it fails to open the file(s). You'll see that if you use normal report type. hope that helps. -- Hari Sekhon -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

So a "ps" never showed a nagios process. I've noticed this myself when installing hardened servers with grsec but the ps output should limit you to seeing processes that your user owns, right?

Processes inside a vserver cannot listen to other ip adresses anyway. The only exeption to this are _ping_ requests on _multihomed_ machines. I cannot ping from inside a vserver with several network interfaces. (my firewall at home has the DMZ as vservers.)

I'm happy enough that it isn't complaining. I may change my mind at some point since downtime scheduling still doesn't work even though everything else does. I found that when I disabled the nagios_check_command line I was suddenly able to do comments which previously never worked, so it's highly possible that the scheduling is in some way connected to the nagios self check before it'll let you do it. Of course the error is completely bogus, a perms thing when I know that to be correct, I made no change to perms at all, just this check command when the error for comments suddenly changed from perms error to working and I am 100% positive I made no changes to anything else at that time. anyway, glad you got yours working the way you want. -h -- Hari Sekhon ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

I think it is rather obvious that you have not configured anything. Nagios will not automagically work after installation. So please go over the manual and start building a config matching your needs. If you have issues after reading the manual and building your config you may run into specific issues and you can ask specific questions on the mailinglist that people may be able to answer. Don 't forget to include relevant sections from config files where needed to explain what you tried to setup. Hugo. -- I hate duplicates. Just reply to the relevant mailinglist. hvdkooij at vanderkooij.org http://hvdkooij.xs4all.nl/ Don't meddle in the affairs of magicians, for they are subtle and quick to anger. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

You can't put a path in the -H option. -H, --hostname=ADDRESS Host name argument for servers using host headers (virtual host) Append a port to include it in the header (eg: example.com:5000) Use the proper option for your path. -u, --url=PATH URL to GET or POST (default: /) Hugo. -- I hate duplicates.

Pretty well the only system dependency I can think of with embedded Perl is the Perl path and this should be dealt with my autoconf and friends. Are you using embedded Perl ?

Perhaps an easier way would be to specify the full path to Perl before any Perl plugin call: define command { command_name check_ntp command_line /usr/bin/perl $USER1$/check_ntp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ } You could, of course, define the path to Perl in a macro, or even the path to Perl plus the path to the standard plugin dir in one macro, like: $USER2$=/usr/bin/perl /usr/lib/nagios/plugins # in resource.cfg define command { command_name check_ntp command_line $USER2$/check_ntp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ } We need more intelligible macro names, like $USER_PERL$. -John -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Well, there's the Nagios documentation which is available in both HTML and PDF. It provides a basic overview of how NSCA works and how it ties into Nagios. The configuration files for NSCA also contain loads of comments, detailing the use of each parameter. Here's the general idea though. You can setup NSCA on your Nagios server to receive status updates for passive checks. These results are sent in using the send_nsca binary. Both processes have their own config files, respectively nsca.cfg and send_nsca.cfg (who'd'a thunk?)... NSCA is commonly used in two situations. 1) A distributed Nagios environment, where multiple servers perform bunches of checks. Each sends its results to a central Nagios server that gathers all the information for display in the GUI and such. 2) Your clients may use send_nsca to send in the results for locally run checks. This mechanism takes the load of your Nagios servers, which can forego the use of active checks. Local checks can be scheduled using either a local Nagios installation, or a wrapper script run through cron (which is the solution I chose to implement). Good luck!

Nice way of hiding a completely new question at the bottom of your previous discussion :) And no. The two are completely unrelated. NRPE is used to actively run check scripts on a remote client. NSCA is used to send in status updates for passive checks, to a Nagios server. It could still be that you need NSCA (e.g. in a distributed environment), but you won't need it simply because you're using NRPE. One does not lead to the other. Cheers!

Pardon? What do you mean by this? In neither of Tom's examples is he trying to pass parameters to check_nrpe, except for the name of the script in question. TOM: As odd as it may seem, we have always "solved" problems like these by removing the service check definition from the server config. Followed by a restart, followed by re-adding the service definition, followed by yet another restart. It sounds like a crappy, windows- like solution, but oddly enough it has worked for us in the past. Can't say that I understand why though.

Doh! I noticed that while reading your e-mail and it even made a small warning light flicker on. I've no clue why it didn't register with me as being -the- problem.

There are many perl plugins on NagiosExchange.org which are not testet to work with ePN I think Plugins should be tagged by the developer.

You can find the nagios-noitify MIB on http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=29880 This is an SNMP v2c MIB so traps must be send in this format. I think its possible to create an eventhandler or notification command to send Traps from Nagios.

My only issue is that parents don't seem to behave the same way as they do in netsaint. In netsaint if host1 is a parent for host2 and host3 then I do not get host notifications for host2 and host3 when host1 is down. In Nagios, with the same parent configuration I get notifications for host2 and host3 when host1 is down. I have unreachable notifications disabled in my host definitions as well as my contact definitions. I'm not sure if I'm missing something but if this is how parents behave now, what's the point of defining them? At the moment I'm getting around this by using hostdependency definitions.

The process needs to be restarted if one of the check fails. So I thought about using check_cluster and an event handler on the cluster service. But now I got to a limit of the configuration (or my knowledge of it). On demand macros are needed for check_cluster2: check_svc_cluster!label!1!1! $SERVICESTATEID:hostname1:Server Log Fileage$, $SERVICESTATEID:hostname1:Server Port 10000$, $SERVICESTATEID:hostname1:http Webgui$ But the service runs on 20 hosts so defining a seperate service check for each server wouldn't be that cool. is there a possibility to define sth like $SERVICESTATEID:$HOSTNAME$:Server Log Fileage$ ? I found discussions about parsing from inside to outside in the archives. Has there been a patch? my workaround is to write a plugin-wrapper-script which stores the returncode in a textfile. Another plugin can implement the check_cluster functionality on the textfiles How do you think about that? thanks in advance. matthias ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

I am aware that that the service_description definition is optional. But it works fine if I change earth to dev-earth. I think this is a bug in the serviceextinfo regular expression match for the host_name. earth and earthquake should not match, as they are different but nagios is insisting they are the same hostname. I can recreate this error by creating 2 hosts, a service both hosts are in and the serviceextinfo settings for both hosts, 1 host has the name embedded like, storm and sandstorm, earth and earthquake ...... but earth1 and earth2 will work. tom.welsh at bt.com wrote: > Hi Brian, > > You don't need to specify the service_description in the serviceextinfo > file see the docs... > > Info taken from Extended Service Information Definition > > Description: > > Extended service information entries are basically used to make the > output from the status and extinfo CGIs look pretty.

If there are going to be any, they'll be in your web server logs, not nagios's. It's not a nagios problem. Nagios is depending on your web server to set the REMOTE_USER environment variable via htaccess. Nagios (i.e. the CGI's in the sbin directory) just uses that environment variable to determine who is logged in. If it's not set, you see 'Logged in as ?' It's that simple. Nagios then takes that username and matches it against a contact or an authorized_for_* variable in cgi.cfg to determine what to show. As I mentioned previously, it seems your authentication for the sbin (cgi directory) is misconfigured or otherwise broken. You've not detailed out any of your specific web server configuration information that I've seen so all I can really say is that you've missed or misconfigured something. If I recall correctly, you're being prompted to log in so that means that you likely have mod_access enabled and configured to prompt for at least one of /share or /sbin. I'm going to assume at this point that it's just /share only otherwise you wouldn't be having this problem. You can easily test this with a simple php script. If you have php enabled, create a file named 'user.php' in /usr/local/nagios/share and /usr/local/nagios/sbin. In the file put the following -- Call the file via your browser with the following URLS -- http://your.nagios.server/nagios/user.php http://your.nagios.server/nagios/cgi-bin/user.php You should be prompted to log in and you should see something like 'REMOTE_USER = yourloginname' after successful access. -- marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

I believe that looking at the (very) brief doc that comes with Nagios that NRPE is a server side executor which tells the remote host "go run this plug-in and pass the result back to me", whereas NCSA executes itself on the host side and then sends the result to a listening NCSAd on the monitoring server running Nagios. So it comes down to active server initiated test or passive client initiated test. While NCSA would reduce load slightly (probably not noticeably though I expect), NRPE would allow for a more centralised way of doing things, especially since I keep my entire nagios config under svn and like to be able to redeploy it centrally.

What have you > used and what are your experiences of this? For everything I can't check across SNMP, I use NRPE. I just started using it less than a year ago for a few things. I like it because of my distribution though, the repo I use RPMs from has NRPE and Nagios all ready to go. This makes it perfect for my use, so your application of it may vary. Anyways, back to NRPE. I haven't noticed any overhead with processing checks even on older machines. My advice would be load both NCSA and NRPE up on a machine or two and experiment first. That way you can see for yourself which one you prefer to use. Let me know if you run Red Hat or a CentOS flavor and you decide to go with NRPE.

For instance, if you also monitor routers or other network equipment, you can't install nrpe or nsca on it. There are also other advantages. There are many servers/applications (jabber, squid, etc, etc) that have SNMP built-in support, so that you can use that you can monitor a lot of things with SNMP. Other advantage is the fact that you can use SNMP not only with Nagios, but also with stats application (like Cacti or other rrdtool based application ) which greatly reduces the ammount of software you'll have to install on your servers. It's really simple to start using SNMP. Take a look at Net-SNMP (http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net). After understanding how it works, you just have to identify the OIDs of the things you want to monitor and make some simple scripts to monitor them. For instance, I use perl scripts with the Net::SNMP module on my Nagios server to check disk space, load average and all that kind of stuff on my monitored servers.

What > have you > used and what are your experiences of this? A few weeks ago I was stuck with the same question. Back then a fellow by the pseudonym "Jakked Up" (he frequents many Nagios fora) helped my out by discussing the matter over e-mail. One of the most important things to keep in mind is the amount of checks you'll be performing and how things will be scheduled by Nagios. Say that you're running 1000 service checks through NRPE and that you want them all run within 5 minutes. Let's assume that each service check averages at 3 seconds before the results are in (best case scenario). This would mean that Nagios would have a thousand three- second connections open every five minutes. Parallelizing things using the Nagios scheduler will help naturally... But now start thinking big... Around 7000 service checks? Would mean 21.000 seconds worth of network connections crammed into five minutes. That's not going to work nicely. And all of this is still excluding things like retries in the case of a failure. Or assloads of retries in the case of massive failure. Now, if you take NSCA, the server will still be getting 7000 incoming connections every five minutes, but: 1) All incoming data will be dumped in the NSCA queue 2) Nagios will "leisurely" pick through the NSCA queue to grab all the status updates Or, as he originally put it: ===== To make a check on a remote system, via nrpe for example, nagios has to schedule the check every 5 minutes, or whatever. The check is made, which means a plugin runs a script that connects to a daemon running remotely. The script then tells the daemon what check to make. The check is made, the data passed on to the client connection, and now nagios has the data for the check and processes it. All of that is a lifetime, compared to: Periodically nagios reads it's external command file, whenever it has time to do so, depending on your settings. At times, it finds completed results of a service check. All nagios has to do is process that result. So, the check is NOT even really made by the central server. It's already sitting there for it. Of course, that is only achieved via something like a passive check via nsca. ===== Me, I'll be making our new Nagios environment as passive as possible. Most checks will be performed locally (scheduled through a small wrapper script I wrote, run from cron), after which the results are submitted through NSCA. For the remaining active checks I'll be using net-SNMP. Cheers! Thomas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

Here are a few clues: * ssh -> check_by_ssh * snmp -> check_snmp * nsca -> send_nsca and the NSCA daemon * apple pie -> yum :9 Okay... I threw the last one in, just because I -love- apple pie. SNMP is yummy as well since it'll let you do two things at the same time: 1) you can run the normal check scripts, by binding them to a custom OID 2) read all kinds of interesting OS and hardware information through vendor OIDs Two birds, one stone...

I do not feel too comfortable with a server holding valueable or vital data is open to connection from the nagios host, which, as a host running a web interface, might be more easily compromised than the actual server. This is a minus for NRPE. With NSCA, the actual server would initiate the connection to the Nagios host which decreases security exposure. otoh, NSCA has a "gap" in data flow as nsca_send wants to see the output in a different format than the plugins put out. There are a bunch of shell scripts around that "translate" between the plugin and nsca_send, but these are like foreign objects in the nagios setup in my feelings. I think that there should be a "glue binary" written in C that calls the plugin and then hands over the results to nsca_send.

The first step is to check your RRD files are being filled with data correctly. Do they look OK if you export them? Once you know your RRD files are fine then you can look at the next phase. Can your webserver read them? Check the error in google and read the links as this is not the first time I have seen the error: http://www.google.com/search?hs=a1j&hl=en&lr=&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&q=RRDs+graph+ERR+can%27t+make+a+graph+without+contents&btnG=Search Hugo. -- I hate duplicates.

Probably, but why would you trust someone else's threat analysis? Their criteria may be wildly different to your infrastructure and policies, not to mention an untrusted source. Why would you base your own security analysis on someone else's security model? Read up a bit and make up your own mind.

I'm not sure if this has to do with those checks directly or with Nagios. Checks will just 'stop' for a while. Most of the time it's the Disk check, but not always. Using Nagiosgraph though the disk checks always are missing data here and there. For the most part it seams to be limited to Windows machines, but I've seen it happen with Linux as well. I'll get back an error of: ERROR: Description/Type table : No response from remote host 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx'. On this example host, there are 5 other SNMP checks, out of those the Disk check and the Virtual memory check are in Unknown. I've been waiting and waiting, and it's been 16 days now for the Virtual memory check and 3 days now for the Drive C check. Nagios has been restarted many of times and this check has never come out of an 'unknown' status. If I force a check of this service, it will come back fine however and continue to work for a while till it breaks again. It seams to be random on what hosts and checks Nagios decides it no longer can connect to, but it's always the same, it stays in this state till you force a recheck. I've watched Nagios to be sure it's actually running the checks, and I can see in the logs it getting executed. With a tcpdump I can even see it sending data to the host and getting the response back. Yet, I can execute it by hand right before and right after, with perfect results, and again once I force it in Nagios, it will of course go OK and stay that way till it blows up again..... I'm out of ideas. Is there a difference in the way Nagios executes a normally scheduled check and a forced re-check?

Before the command line is executed, all valid macros are replaced with their respective values. See the documentation on macros for determining when you can use different macros. Note that the command line is not surrounded in quotes. Also, if you want to pass a dollar sign ($) on the command line, you have to escape it with another dollar sign So use $$ instead of $.

I've been running nagios successfully on both Redhat Enterprise Linux Versions 3 and 4, and now am trying to migrate this to Fedora Core 4. I'm compiling from source on each of the systems using RPMs (own spec files.) Since I'm using RPM to build, I can guarantee the configuration, permissions, etc are the same on both systems. However, when I try to run this on a Fedora Core System I get the: Whoops! Error: Could not read object configuration data! Here are some things you should check in order to resolve this error: 1. Verify configuration options using the -v command-line option to check for errors. I know my config is legitimate, and when looking for errors, there is nothing in the nagios logs nor the apache log files. Does anyone know of anywhere else I should look in order to troubleshoot this issue? I've been able to duplicate this on both 2.4 and 2.5.

I changed a couple of services to notifications_enabled 0 in the configfiles, but the deamon didn't recognize the changes after reloading and restarting. (yes, i checked for duplicate processes). So I changed the service description, reloaded nagios and the changes were activated. I then changed the description back, reloaded -> everything fine.. notifications disabled. The "View Config" cgi showed everything correctly all the time (I guess it parses the configfiles, not the status files, right?) To me it looks like a bug up to now.

Maybe it uses a form where you have to enter username and password and then press the submit button? In this case you need the -P switch for posting your credentials. If you are not sure, just use a browser: Do you get a popup windows from your browser which asks you to enter username and password? Then it's basic auth. Or do you get a form? Then it's application specific and you need to post your data. If the site is publically available, just tell us the URL and we will be able to help you.

Exactly, because what is run by ePN is not what you run. ePN takes the script and turns it into another script in which the original script is wrapped up as a subroutine (see http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/embeddedperl.html for the gory details). This subroutine is compiled only once - compared with every time if a shell was forked to run Perl - and the resulting Perl byte code remains in memory as long as Nagios runs (that is why it is such a memory pig). Also, when its compiled, the strict pragma is used. This means that each and every variable must be declared before use by my $foo = 'bar' ; > I wonder what wrong with my > configurations ? Nothing. This is simply part of the ePN tradeoff: better performance for pickiness about what is run and lots of memory used. > After added a new "my $script", the > other error is occur "Global symbol "$timeout" or the > other that begining with "$". Should i append the > variable my $"XXXX" all manual ? Yes. To know when you are there without having ePN complain each time 1 add 'use strict' to the plugin 2 correct everything that perl -c plugin complains about Either that or don't use ePN. You can not use ePN by 1 changing the command definition (of the plugin) in commands.cfg to add an explict path to Perl before the plugin path eg command_line $USER1$/check_rootport -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -N $HOSTNAME change to command_line /usr/bin/perl $USER1$/check_rootport -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -N $HOSTNAME This was discussed in the last week in this list. 2 calling the plugin from a shell or C wrapper (much harder). > > Thank you before. > > Best regards Good luck.

The core of the problem is the original coder didn't enable Strict syntax checking, and probably didn't enable warnings. Nagios's ePN plugin does the right thing and uses Strict syntax checking and gives warnings (this is standard perl practice).. You will need to contact the developer of the plugin to tidy up his code, or you can go in yourself and declare the variables yourself like I showed you, adding in the "my $var;" statement, or you could go the lazy route and run the script through an external perl interpereter without warnings or syntax checking, but losing lots of speed from launching an external process to compile + run the script every 5 minutes instead of running the internally compiled script.. There is apparently an ePN commandline util that you may be able to run which should work exactly the same as the embedded perl interpereter, you may need to check this in the docs or source.. And it looks like that Stanley has already said exactly the same thing :-) Cheers > > I wonder what wrong with my > > configurations ? > > Nothing.

These are the same as the 1.2 host as well. Morning.. Okay.. so the content switch is detecting the SYN attacks on multiple hosts.. Is the check check_nt_cpu running an NRPE_nt / NSClient++ check? These do use TCP.. Not sure what the check_nt_cpu check actually does because you haven't provided it here. it comes from the commands.cfg file.. I would say (without further investigation and no knoweledge of your network archetecture) that the content switch is probably just doing it's job, and is configured with some very low thresholds for SYN Flood protection.. Check out the thresholds, see if they are lower than the amount of checks the Nagios server is running through the server. Here's an equation for you so you can work out the servers polling frequency to match it up to the network switch thresholds Number of Hosts * ( Number of Services per host ( 60 Mins / Check interval for services ) ) = Num of checks per hour I would say these are probably a false alarm and adjust the parameters up a little higher. If you are really concerned, you might want to do some more digging and find exactly which hosts are being SYN Flooded, the amount of packets per second, the TCP ports being opened and the source port(s) of the attack. Two programs which will assist you in this are: tcpdump (cmdline) or ethereal (cmdline and X) Good luck > On 9/14/06, Donnell Lewis wrote: > > Did the 'ping' command check itself change from the 2 different > > versions ?

I know but this (as far as I understood) can only be set for a given service not a given contact. This means that I should duplicate *every* service and for each service: service1 notify contact_sms once per sms service1 notify contact every 120m per email I have more or less 50 entries that I should duplicate. I would like something like service1 notify contact_sms, contact per sms and email and then in contacs.cfg set globally that corti_sms should receive only one notification.

I used the minimal.cfg file, renamed it and simply changed the definitions for the services, hosts, contact, etc.. I also changed the chekc_commands to use the check_nrpe like this : define command{ command_name check_nrpe command_line .../check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c $ARG1$ } define service { ... check_command check_nrpe!check_disk1 } I have the nrpe deaemon running on the remote host with the IP of where nagios is in the allowed_host config (running as xinet.d) and I have verified it is running by telnet localhost 5666 and getting a connection from both servers (nagios server and the server I want to monitor). At first, I had check external commands disabled. I could use the web interface but all services were PENDING and staying PENDING even after the time went past the next scheduled check. And when I was trying to stop nagios (/etc/init.d/nagios stop) I would get an error (the only error I saw in all this mess): Stopping network monitor: nagios Waiting for nagios to exit . . . . . . . . . . . Warning - running nagios did not exit in time Some left over nagios process is left running and I have to "killall -9 nagios" to stop nagios otherwise I end up having multiple copies running. I've enabled check extern commands and changed the "rw" directory's permission based on the documentation (http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/commandfile.html) and now the web says nagios is not running even though I restarted apache and nagios. Error I get is : "Whoops! Error: Could not read host and service status information!" However nagios IS running. (ps awux | grep nagios shows 3 processes) apache is running as "daemon" so I have added secondary group nagiocmd to nagios and to daemon. the permission of the directory is: drwxrws--- nagios nagiocmd /var/log/nagios/rw/ When I run nagios -v /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg I get no warning and no errors (Things look okay). I have 6 services, one host, one host group, one contact, one contact group, 9 commands and one timeperiod. I've disabled the retention as suggested in this forum for services and hosts left in "PENDING", but no use. I would very much like to force a check using the CGI but I am having trouble there too. The log directory does not contains a status.log file, I do not know if that's relevant. I tried starting the daemon by hand (nagios -d /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg) but I got no error messages there either. I've searched on google to the only error message (in the title of this post) but only found reference to the script. I went over the parts of the documentation that seem related to my problem, I've looked thru the nagios FAQ and the forum. So in summary, nagios cannot be stopped properly, the services are never checked, maybe a log file is missing, there's not really any usefull error messages and I am lossing patience! I think I have done everything I can possibly can but I must be missing something that is too obvious and too simple for me to see, or something related to some information I am not aware of. Any pointers would be appreciated. Thank you Christian Roy ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

I guess I flew over this one a bit too fast.

Has anyone succeeded at this? I've checked over some old posts with suggestions but the CGIs just don't seem to work with two instances. The specifics -- We are monitoring a large network and have 24/7 operators watching the console and pager and e-mail. Nagios is great for alerting them so they can notify the right department/technician. The operators are not allowed to change the status, such as disabling notifications, acknowledgements... This is strictly a read-only interface. Hence, their web login is via a privledged account which allows them to view all hosts and services, but can't change anything. Their e-mail comes from a different account. Now we have developers who want to monitor their test/development machines and I don't want these failures to reach the operators' web interface. Since the operators are viewing a privledged screen, there's no way to prevent them from seeing the test boxes. My current attempt uses a single Nagios install with separate test directories, many linked back to the installed ones. Running the CGI in the test directory shows all the hosts from the production instance. If two instances isn't the best way to solve this, are there any other suggestions?

Has anyone some ideas? Well. If it is a bug you can propably reproduce it. If you can't reproduce it anymore then it could be just about anything. Your description sounds like a once in a blue moon event type. But if you can reproduce it and describe how you did it then I am sure the developers want to know about it.

Message-ID: <1158428655.20237.10.camel@luna.aikisoft.com> I'm experimenting with Nagios at home - I just joined a company that uses it extensively in the field and I'll need to know how it works. I've managed to install it, and I can get to the home page from my (FireFox) web browser (on systems running FC5). So far, so good. I have verified that I have a working config file. If I start Nagios, things look ok, but I don't have the authorization correct. I have added the entries in the Apache config file, and created the .htaccess entries in the nagios directories. But when I point the web browser at the nagios page, it does not ask for a login/password. Then I get authorization failures when I try to look at the various monitoring pages This is really a browser issue, not nagios I think. But it isn't something I've done before - can someone suggest what I might have set up incorrectly or point me at what needs to be added? thanks very much, nbc NAME: Neil B.

If you're not getting prompted for a login, it's not a Nagios or a browser issue -- it's a webserver configuration problem. Assuming your .htaccess files are valid, your webserver is probably configured not to use them. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

What is taking Nagios so long to check them. As long as the services assigned to he hosts are checked everything is fine.

Yours was one of the first approaches I took, but I found that the two sets of CGIs both returned the same results, regardless of the config files. This leads me to belive that the CGIs might interface with the running nagios process. I am running the CGIs from the command line to avoid any problems with Apache and vHosts. If you're sure this approach still works, then I can pound on my configurations till I get it, but I suspect that it no longer works with one instance and multiple configurations.

These file paths are hard-coded in the cgi binaries, which means that you have to compile (at least the cgis) with a different configuration. (You could also try patching them :-) Try a command like 'strings -n 6 /usr/local/nagios2/sbin/tac.cgi | grep status\\.dat' using your local path to the cgis, of course.

The template format of the configs makes it pretty trivial to do things like convert a text file full of URLs to a Nagios config. I don't know what your environment looks like, but in my case I'll often use something like a dummy host, with all the URL service checks attached to it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

Marc, Yes, downtime.dat is created/written to by the nagios process. I think I was possibly misstating the problem. It seems that the downtimes that have not triggered yet are kept, however ones that have already triggered and are in process while nagios is restarted don't re-enter the downtime period after the restart.

Message-ID: <1158694388.7895.13.camel@luna.aikisoft.com> I seem to have gotten Nagios configured and running on a single Linux host. Now I want to try monitoring a second host on the same network (I'm experimenting with a couple of machines at home) and I'm having some problems. I've been looking through the documentation, but either I'm looking in the wrong place or at the wrong docs. I have a number of questions - scattered through the rest of this message. Any help or pointers would be appreciated... On the primary monitoring machine (referred to as 'localhost' or 'host1'), I added host definitions that include the 'remote' machine (referred to as 'host2' in the rest of this message). So my file hosts.cfg includes this: define host{ use generic-host ; Name of host template to use host_name localhost alias localhost address 127.0.0.1 check_command check-host-alive max_check_attempts 10 check_period 24x7 notification_interval 120 notification_period 24x7 notification_options d,r contact_groups admins } define host{ use generic-host ; Name of host template to use host_name host2.aikisoft.com alias host2 address 192.168.130.111 max_check_attempts 10 check_period 24x7 notification_interval 120 notification_period 24x7 notification_options d,r contact_groups admins } Question #1: In the host definition for 'host2', should I include the check-host-alive command like I have in host 1? Why, or why not - I'm not sure I understand exactly what I'm defining here.... I set up an NSCA daemon process on host 1 to receive status information from host 2. However, I'm not sure how to configure host2 itself. I have Nagios installed there, and I have a basic configuration. I can start nagios running, but I don't see how to get the NSCA client to run the various tests and forward results to host 1. Question #2: Does Nagios need to be running on host 2 or just the NSCA client? Question #3: Is there documentation on NSCA? I found some minimal things, but not enough for me to figure out what is really going on. The way my system is running, host1 thinks it has 2 hosts to monitor, and it is using PING to decide that both are alive - that's the good news. But I would like to also report on CPU utilization, disk space etc from host 2, and that's where I seem to be stuck. Sorry if this is long and confusing - I'm definitely confused :) Thanks in advance for any pointers you can give me. If I need to provide other config info, I'll be happy to do that. nbc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Yes. Most Linux distribution come with a scaled down sendmail server or something that is compatible to it in the ways defined by the LSB (Linux Standards Base).

Why, or why not - I'm > not sure I understand exactly what I'm defining here.... The check-host-alive command, defined in localhost's object definitions, is the command that Nagios will issue if any service check returns with any non-OK state. Then, if nagios is running and not complained about missing definitions, you don't need to set a host-check-command. > I set up an NSCA daemon process on host 1 to receive status information > from host 2.

I can start > nagios running, but I don't see how to get the NSCA client to run the > various tests and forward results to host 1. Here is where i think you are misunderstanding. As NSCA is able to expect service check results from another Nagios server, we used to use the NSCA daemon in a distributed monitoring environment. So if you are monitoring host2, you don't actually need to run Nagios there, althought you might, but it isn't the "elegant" way to do it. You should think about running NRPE, or any client that will serve as the host2 information server for Nagios to connect to and gather all the info you need. Take a look at the check-by-ssh plugin also. > > Question #2: > Does Nagios need to be running on host 2 or just the NSCA client? Neither. Nagios shoulg run only on the host1, and it will poll the nrpe daemon to run local plugins, or connect to a daemon like netsaint_statd, or running local plugins by connecting through ssh, or whatever. Only if there are security constraints of active polling you should then think about passive monitoring. That also does not need Nagios to be running on all monitored hosts. > Question #3: > Is there documentation on NSCA? I found some minimal things, but not > enough for me to figure out what is really going on. Like i've said, NSCA is used to setup a distributed monitorign environment. > The way my system is running, host1 thinks it has 2 hosts to monitor, > and it is using PING to decide that both are alive - that's the good > news.

To monitor other resources, you should use NRPE or check-by-ssh, or any other daemon available to be polled by nagios plugins and gather info that is relevant to you. > Sorry if this is long and confusing - I'm definitely confused :) With time and patience you should get through all the way of understanding all concepts.

You'll need to pass any $USERx$ variables as parameters to your script or read them directly from resource.cfg within your script. The only other method would have been via environment variable but Nagios specifically does not export that variable set. http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/macros.html Macros as Environment Variables Starting with Nagios 2.0, most macros have been made available as environment variables. This means that scripts that are run from Nagios (i.e. service and host check commands, notification commands, etc.) can reference these macros directly as standard environment variables. For purposes of security and sanity, $USERn$ and "on-demand" host and service macros are not made available as environment variables. Environment variables that contain macros are named the same as their corresponding macro names (listed below), with "NAGIOS_" prepended to their names. For example, the $HOSTNAME$ macro would be available as an environment variable named "NAGIOS_HOSTNAME". -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

In other words, the offending service check process is not being killed by Nagios as it should. The check script is written in PHP and the situation this problem occurs in is when it connects to a socket but receives no response.

It has about 400 hosts and 1.500 services, with service check latency averaging on 9.6 seconds. I am trying to update my setup, but I am not sure if I have the best possible solution. What I need is this: If a service gets critical, a notification must be send out immediatelly to the contactgroupmembers of "Group A". A second notification for that critical service should be send to "Group B" 5 minutes after the service has become critical. Group A, should receive a new notification every 30 minutes the problem persists. Group B should receive a new notification every 15 minutes the problem persists. Additionally, Group B should only be bothered during a specific time period. In an attempt to accomplish this I came up with the following: define service { [...] notification_interval 600 } define serviceescalation { [...] first_notification 1 last_notification 0 notification_interval 1800 contact_groups group_a } define serviceescalation { [...] first_notification 2 last_notification 0 notification_interval 900 contact_groups group_b } The last requirement, Group B receiving notifications only at certain times, can be met in several ways. One way would be by adding the option escalation_period to the above serviceescalation and another way would by limiting service_notification_period for each of the members of Group B. Would there be performance-wise a preference for one of these solutions? The reason I am asking is that, basically, I only want notifications every 15 minutes (*but* for the first notification one of the groups should have a 5 minute delay). I currently have a notification interval in the service definition of 1800. Would there, considering the amount of services that are being checked, a potential performance problem? -- Rejo Zenger https://rejo.zenger.nl -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I would like to know, for example, where Nagios 3.0 is headed, and how the interface will be designed. (Will it be more "Ajax"-like?) Will Nagios 3.0 have a "central information daemon", instead of the big status.dat file it currently has? Will we have a "libnagios" to do the gruntwork? How are the "broker" functions / functionality coming along? Will we have various SQL backends? (MySQL / PostgreSQL / SQLite / ...)? Etc. So... if possible, please make the presentations available to those of us poor souls, that can't make it to the conference.

Have you done a tcpdump to ensure that the packet is actually hitting the eth1 interface, and is not being routed by the kernel to the loopback interface? Something like this should prove useful: tcpdump -lnSi eth1 proto dhcp ( I guessed the proto dhcp flag, it may be bootp or something else, read man page) I imagine that your dhcp daemon is bound to eth1 and not listening on the loopback or eth0.. Run some tcpdumps on the interfaces to see that the requests come in on the right interfaces and are responded to.. > but when I do it from another machine I get a successful result These requests are definitely going out over the wire and hitting the DHCP server's nic, and is being responded to. It may be a different story running the check_dhcp plugin on the DHCP Server.. see above.

Your notification command is not configured correctly. Usually you'd see a mail program like 'mail' between the "|" and "-s" in the command definition. Just insert the mail program you use on your server there, and make sure the -s switch does set the subject. On most common unix(like) systems, the command "mail" should work correctly. Then, make sure your local mail transport program aka mail server is set up correctly :-) Arno > Sep 21 13:19:37 segacc nagios: SERVICE ALERT: > prueba;PING;CRITICAL;HARD;1;CRITICAL - Plugin timed out after 12 seconds > > These are the files that I create > > define host{ > name generic-host ; The name of > this host template > notifications_enabled 1 ; Host notifications are > enabled > event_handler_enabled 1 ; Host event handler is > enabled > flap_detection_enabled 1 ; Flap detection is enabled > # failure_prediction_enabled 1 ; Failure prediction is > enabled > process_perf_data 1 ; Process performance data > retain_status_information 1 ; Retain status > information across program restarts > retain_nonstatus_information 1 ; Retain non-status > information across program restarts > register 0 ; DONT REGISTER THIS > DEFINITION - ITS NOT A REAL HOST, JUST A TEMPLATE! > } > > define host { > use generic-host > host_name prueba > alias prueba > address 192.168.xxx.xxx > check_command check-host-alive > max_check_attempts 10 > check_period 24x7 > event_handler notify-by-email > notification_interval 480 > notification_period 24x7 > notification_options d,u,r > stalking_options o,d,o > hostgroups linux-server > contact_groups linux-admin > } > > define service{ > name generic-service ; The 'name' of > this service template > active_checks_enabled 1 ; Active service checks > are enabled > passive_checks_enabled 1 ; Passive service checks > are enabled/accepted > parallelize_check 1 ; Active service checks > should be parallelized (disabling this can lead to major performance > problems) > obsess_over_service 1 ; We should obsess over > this service (if necessary) > check_freshness 0 ; Default is to NOT check > service 'freshness' > notifications_enabled 1 ; Service notifications > are enabled > event_handler_enabled 1 ; Service event handler > is enabled > flap_detection_enabled 1 ; Flap detection is enabled > # failure_prediction_enabled 1 ; Failure prediction is > enabled > process_perf_data 1 ; Process performance data > retain_status_information 1 ; Retain status > information across program restarts > retain_nonstatus_information 1 ; Retain non-status > information across program restarts > register 0 ; DONT REGISTER THIS > DEFINITION - ITS NOT A REAL SERVICE, JUST A TEMPLATE! > } > > > > define service { > use generic-service > service_description PING > is_volatile 0 > check_command check_ping!1050.0,30%!1550.0,60% > max_check_attempts 4 > normal_check_interval 5 > retry_check_interval 1 > check_period 24x7 > notification_interval 240 > notification_period 24x7 > host_name prueba > notification_options u,c,r > contact_groups linux-admin > } > > _________________________________________________________________ > Add fun gadgets and colorful themes to express yourself on Windows Live > Spaces > http://clk.atdmt.com/MSN/go/msnnkwsp0070000001msn/direct/01/?href=http://www.get.live.com/spaces/features > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Take Surveys.

Passing an argument to the check_command using !ARGn! notation doesn't work. I think it has something to do with the ARG definition in the manual: "The nth argument passed to the service check command. Nagios supports up to 32 argument macros ($ARG1$ through $ARG32$)." Arguments are only passed to service checks and not to host checks. There is no service associated with the said hosts. And I think it is not a good idea to just rely on service checks result for those hosts such that hosts can assumed to be up or down because the host checking method will just be a waste to the machine's resource given a huge number of hosts to be checked but the host check commands arent working.

If that's the case you could always either hard-code the necessary arguments in the check command - thereby possibly creating a large number of similar host check commands - or using a wrapper script around the actual check command. You could set up any additional arguments depending on the host name or address, for example. >There is no service associated with the > said hosts. That's a misconfiguration then :-) Hosts are only checked when they have a service problem. So: No services means no host checks. > And I think it is not a good idea to just > rely on service checks result for those hosts such > that hosts can assumed to be up or down because the > host checking method will just be a waste to the > machine's resource given a huge number of hosts to be > checked but the host check commands arent working. But why not simply add a service check doing what you now want to put into the host check? You could even simplify the host check to something like 'check_dummy 1 "Unknown switch state"' if you want to... > Any idea how to handle this?

I have noticed a couple of quirks though which I should point out. The nagios_check_command I specified in cgi.cfg never worked, despite the fact that it works perfectly from the command line of the nagios user (in fact I put it in a script and use it outside of nagios fine) . For reference see https://sourceforge.net/search/?ml_name=nagios-users&type_of_search=mlists&group_id=26589&words=nagios+process+not+running+it+is+running Once I commented out the nagios_check_command, I could add comments, but I still could not schedule downtime. I have also found that when scheduling downtime, if I put the name of the host in lower case instead of Capitalized as I have defined it, then I get the error regarding you are not authorized etc... even though my nagiosadmin user is authorized for everything everywhere. Therefore the downtime scheduling is case sensitive for hostname. So really this whole problem was nothing to do with permissions or authorisation. -h Deborah Martin wrote: > no idea! i use .htaccess and it works for me! my httpd.conf has the > following which is what i extracted from the docs! > > ScriptAlias /nagios/cgi-bin /usr/local/nagios/sbin > > AllowOverride AuthConfig > Options ExecCGI > Order allow,deny > Allow from all > > > > AllowOverride AuthConfig > order allow,deny > allow from all > Options ExecCGI > > > > Alias /nagios /usr/local/nagios/share > > Options None > AllowOverride AuthConfig > Order allow,deny > Allow from all > > > > AllowOverride AuthConfig > order allow,deny > allow from all > > > Maybe there is something else that is fundamentally wrong! > > > -----Original Message----- > *From:* Justin Craig [mailto:jrcraig.email at gmail.com] > *Sent:* 01 August 2006 16:22 > *To:* Deborah Martin > *Cc:* Martin J.

Sound like you want the omelet without breaking the eggshells. I think you need to handle this with routing. So I suggest you sacrify some subnet you do not want to reach normally and send that network out via the other link. (Say: 207.68.128.0/18 ;-) And just for good measures. If it is the backup link. How will you do the failover? (Not that is has anything to do with Nagios.) It might be worthwhile digging into the source based routing option of your network equipment. Hugo. -- I hate duplicates.

Is this functionality readily available in Nagios? I'm familiar with the availability reports available on nagios's pages, but is there an easy way to get it to generate a report at a regular interval and send it via email? I could make a cron job to run avail.cgi and send the output, but I thought I'd check to see if anyone can point me to some built in functionality first.

If you haven't modified the source code then it would appear that your firefox is borked. I use FF exclusively and have never seen that problem nor have I seen anyone else report it. All links have a target of 'main'. If you view source on the page, or look at ~nagios/share/index.html, you should see the frameset and a line that looks like -- The FRAME NAME defines the frame window that the links will use and must match the 'target=' used for each link. If it's not 'main' (or at least the same) then FF will either open a new window or replace the current window. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

Maybe I went too quickly. What dit not work is that I would like to use a group for the service description. I want to be able to say that for every server in my config, if NRPE is not returning OK on one server, don't do checks that depend on NRPE. The ideal solution would be only one servicedependency definition, but I don't think it is possible, so here is what I tried: - Defined a servicegroup: define servicegroup{ servicegroup_name NRPE_dep alias NRPE-dependant checks } - I added members through the "servicegroups" directive in the service descriptions. Now I'm trying that: define servicedependency{ dependent_servicegroup_name NRPE_dep host_name server1 service_description NRPE execution_failure_criteria n notification_failure_criteria w,u,c } I always get this error: Error: NULL service description/host name in service dependency definition Any ideas? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

I'm running Nagios on SUSe linux, 8.x, sles 9.3 and have been having this trouble since Nagios 1.1. Currently using v2.5. I'm currently using plugins v1.4.2, but the version doesn't seem to matter. The OS also doesn't seem to matter. We're running on an old 486, a new 64-bit Intel blade, and a z/Os mainframe virtual host and it bombs the same on all. Nagios crashes occassionally when entering or exiting from scheduled down time. I've seen the problem once or twice from other commands, but it seems the easiest to reproduce by scheduling downtime. In all earlier versions, the crash wrote a segfault to the logs, but v2.5 just dies quietly. The problem comes around once every 200-300 commands, but there isn't a magic number. It doesn't die on the same host name, either. We are currently showing around 11 critical items in the monitoring interface, and all the statuses and notifications are valid. We are using only active checks. The performance numbers look suspicious (90% over one minute) but with performance data monitoring disabled in nagios.cfg, I don't place much confidence in these numbers.

You were probably trying for something like -- command_line /usr/bin/httping -x $HOSTADDRESS$:$ARG1$ -c 1 -h www.google.com That would at least get httping running _BUT_ unless httping exits with the standard nagios exit codes to denote state and follows the nagios output guidelines (in the Developer Docs at http://nagiosplug.sf.net), you'll need to create a wrapper script for it so that it does. This is almost certainly going to be necessary. Essentially you'll need to look at the output of httping and determine if it's OK, WARNING, CRITICAL or UNKNOWN and tell nagios appropriately. At the minimum you'll need to follow the 'Print only one line of output' and 'Plugin Return Codes' section of that documentation. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

Alternatively do what I do. Create a servicedependency.cfg file that is created by a script that parses the objects.cache file. so to update: clear/empty servicedependency.cfg reload nagios wait until objects.cache is updated parse objects.cache for all the host/service pairs in the NRPE_dep servicegroup generate: define servicedependency{ dependent_host_name example dependent_service_description (all services from NRPE_dep for host example) host_name example service_description NRPE ... } and put them into servicedependency.cfg reload nagios to load the now non-empty servicedependency.cfg file.

I'm running Nagios on SUSe linux, 8.x, sles 9.3 and have been having this trouble since Nagios 1.1. Currently using v2.5. I'm currently using plugins v1.4.2, but the version doesn't seem to matter. The OS also doesn't seem to matter. We're running on an old 486, a new 64-bit Intel blade, and a z/Os mainframe virtual host and it bombs the same on all. Nagios crashes occassionally when entering or exiting from scheduled down time. I've seen the problem once or twice from other commands, but it seems the easiest to reproduce by scheduling downtime. In all earlier versions, the crash wrote a segfault to the logs, but v2.5 just dies quietly. The problem comes around once every 200-300 commands, but there isn't a magic number. It doesn't die on the same host name, either. We are currently showing around 11 critical items in the monitoring interface, and all the statuses and notifications are valid. We are using only active checks. The performance numbers look suspicious (90% over one minute) but with performance data monitoring disabled in nagios.cfg, I don't place much confidence in these numbers.

You may, for example, have a chack you want to run every 60 seconds. Getting notifications that often would be annoying. The inverse might apply for services that are checked infrequently. > 2) what happens when you set max_check_attempts to 0 (zero)? Will it > then always stick to the retry_check_interval? I haven't tried it, but I would guess that it's either invalid, or will cause state to never change. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Here is an extract of some notes I made when setting up a test system, so it only makes 97% sense, there a a couple of "odd" sentences. Remember it is still work in progress so if anything doesn't work plese let me know. It assumes you have Nagios working with the plugins ahd NRPE installed. G Monitoring a Windows Server Download the file for NRPE-NT onto the windows box, http://www.nagiosexch ange.org/NRPE.77.0.html?&tx_netnagext_pi1[p_view]=139, and unzip it. Rename the bin directory as Nagios and move it to the root directory on the c drive. Open a DOS cmd window cd /nagios nrpe_nt -i Now go and start the Nagios Remote service or reboot this client server. If you have a firewall on the client server open port 5666. Download the file for Basic NRPE_NT Plugins onto the windows box, http://www.nagiosexchange.org/NRPE_Plugins.66.0.htm l?&tx_netnagext_pi1[p_view]=62, and unzip it. Copy all the exe files in the bin directory to c:\Nagios. In the Nagios directory edit nrpe.cfg and set the allowed host to the ip of your nagios server. allowed_hosts=192.168.0.1 Then at the bottom, add configuration lines for the checks we can run. command[nt_cpuload]=C:\nagios\cpuload_nrpe_nt.exe 50 80 command[nt_check_disk_c]=C:\nagios\diskspace_nrpe_nt.exe c: 70 90 command[nt_check_disk_d]=C:\nagios\diskspace_nrpe_nt.exe d: 70 90 command[nt_check_disk_e]=C:\nagios\diskspace_nrpe_nt.exe e: 70 90 command[nt_eventlog]=C:\nagios\eventlog_nrpe_nt.exe 7200 "Service Control Manager" command[nt_memload]=C:\nagios\memload_nrpe_nt.exe 70 90 command[nt_service]=C:\nagios\service_nrpe_nt.exe "Event Log,DNS Client" These commands all have fixed values which once you are familiar with what you are doing you might want to change them. If you want to use parameters in the commands read the comments in the config file. Now on the host server we have to set up a new host in the host.cfg file, why not copy the entries for the first server and change the name, alias and address to those relating to your windows server. Copy this to checkcommands.cfg define command{ command_name nt_check_disk_c command_line $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c nt_check_disk_c } define command{ command_name nt_check_disk_d command_line $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c nt_check_disk_d } define command{ command_name nt_check_disk_e command_line $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c nt_check_disk_e } define command{ command_name nt_cpuload command_line $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c nt_cpuload } define command{ command_name nt_memload command_line $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c nt_memload } define command{ command_name nt_service command_line $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c nt_service } define command{ command_name nt_eventlog command_line $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c nt_eventlog } Copy this to the service.cfg replacing xxxxxxxxxx with the host name you used in the hosts.cfg file. define service{ use generic-service ; Name of service template to use host_name xxxxxxxxxx service_description NT_DISK_C is_volatile 0 check_period 24x7 max_check_attempts 3 normal_check_interval 5 retry_check_interval 1 contact_groups linux-admins notification_interval 240 notification_period 24x7 notification_options c,r check_command nt_check_disk_c } Validate the configuration, and as a small exercise, correct the deliberate error, validate again and restart Nagios. By copying the nagios directory onto other windows server and setting up the service to run as described above you can monitor them as well. You will also need to define them in the hosts.cfg and add them to the host_name on service entry defined above in the service.cfg file. - Geoffrey Walton (geoffrey) ----------------------- This thread is located in the archive at this URL: http://www.nagiosexchange.org/nagios-users.34.0.html?&tx_maillisttofaq_pi 1[showUid]=22073 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

The documentation points to a non-existant directory on my installation which was compiled from source. Nagios 2.5 Redhat EL4 Extract from 2.5 documentation The scripts should examine the values of the arguments passed in and take any necessary action based upon those values. The best way to understand how event handlers should work is to see and example. Lucky for you, one is provided below. There are also some sample event handler scripts included in the eventhandlers/ subdirectory of the Nagios distribution. Some of these sample scripts demonstrate the use of external commands to implement redundant monitoring hosts. Examples showing re-starting various services on remote linux and windows boxes would be appreciated.

Put the contents in /usr/local/nagios/share/images/logos. >From http://www.nagiosexchange.org/Frontends.37.0.html?&tx_netnagext_pi1[ p_view]=166 download nagiosmap.pl to your desktop. If you can see it or the program will not run chmod 744 ~/Desktop/nagiosmap.pl The current download (12/9/2004) will work if you edit the code slightly as the entries in hostextinfo.cfg file and the location of directories have changed in this release. So open nagiosmap.pl in an editor and on line 36 & 52 ... my $imgpath="/usr/local/nagios/share/images/logos/"; my $cfgpath="/usr/local/share/nagios/etc/"; Replace gd2_image with statusmap_image in 2 places e.g. print SAVE " gd2_image ".$object{$obj}{"GD2"}."\n"; print SAVE " statusmap_image ".$object{$obj}{"GD2"}."\n"; } elsif ($line =~ /^\s+statusmap_image\s+([\w\d\-\_\.]+)\s*(\;?.*|)$/) { If you are really picky you could also change Enable to Unable in all the error messages. There does seem to be some work being done at http://cvs.orion.education. fr/viewcvs/racvision/src/nagiosmap/ . apt-get install perl-Tk apt-get install perl-Locale-gettext Now you can run the script. (You might need to get some other perl modules but I am sure the erro messages witll be extremly clear and easy to decipher :-) ~/Desktop/nagiosmap.pl Click on File and Open, open and open. There are no lines on the map because the hosts file does not have any parent info. But once you put a hub in your hosts.cfg you can put a parent line in the definitions for your servers and then you start to get a "map". So exit the program and update your hosts.cfg. When you restart the program you can drag and drop the images. Assign an image to every host by right clicking on the questionmarks and selecting from the drop down. File, save,save,Yes,Yes Go and look at the hostextinfo.cfg file it created for you. The fields it can contain are shown below. define hostextinfo{ host_name host_name notes note_string notes_url url action_url url icon_image image_file icon_image_alt alt_string vrml_image image_file statusmap_image image_file 2d_coords x_coord,y_coord 3d_coords x_coord,y_coord,z_coord } You can use and editor to add default entries for lines it does not put in. Validate your config files and restart nagios. Select Status Map from the menubar on the left and then User Supplied Co-ordinates and click on update.

One of two things is probably happening: Either you have a host check defined in a host template, and now that you've deleted the override the default host check is kicking in, or you're receiving results from a PING service check. What message do you get, exactly?

I can verify this because in the web console when I do a "View Config" and select "Hosts", I can see that the Host check_command is empty. hostname: PING CRITICAL - Packet loss = 100% is the error message.

I read that increasing the retries would force Nagios to stall when it is retrying. My thought was, we would get alerts from the service checks if the host is down, so the ping checks may not be needed. I am new to Nagios. So forgive if my rationale is flawed. > Without a host check command, there's nothing to reset the host state to > "Host UP", so it will stay in the previous state recorded. I think you are right on.

I am new to Nagios. So forgive if my rationale is flawed. If host checks are a major problem for your setup (and it sounds like, if you were getting false positives, it may be better to tweak the checks so they don't get tripped so often), you can set up a host check that always succeeds, which'll work better than no host check. Since host checks will generally only get called when a service check fails, though, if you're getting false positives you probably just need to retool the service checks a bit. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

We've run without hosts checks for several years with no adverse effects. The regularly run ping service check (a requirement of our contract) is sufficient for our needs and eliminates the need to maintain parent relationships for all our devices. We found that in a failure situation where hundreds of sites may suddenly be down that the lag generated by host checks was unacceptable. The parent relationships can be very complex and not easily integrated into our scripted config generation so we took the simple path. It's worked out well for us at least. Setting up a host check that always succeeds uses un-necessary resources IMHO, especially for large installations. The host is always assumed to be up anyway. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Just turn off retention and restart Nagios (remember to re-enable it again later). Another way is to delete the individual HOST/SERVICE lines from the status file in the .../nagios/var/ directory. Using the latter may cause wierd results in availibility reports until the data has aged out into archives beyond your report range.

Maybe I went too quickly. What dit not work is that I would like to use a group for the service description. I want to be able to say that for every server in my config, if NRPE is not returning OK on one server, don't do checks that depend on NRPE.

Now I'm trying that: define servicedependency{ dependent_servicegroup_name NRPE_dep host_name server1 service_description NRPE execution_failure_criteria n notification_failure_criteria w,u,c } I always get this error: Error: NULL service description/host name in service dependency definition Any ideas? ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Mon, 25 Sep 2006 16:27:11 -0400 From: Ugo Bellavance Subject: [Nagios-users] Distributed setup, NSCA, not working To: nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net Message-ID: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Hi, I'm trying to make a failover system, so I have added, on the master server, to: nagios.cfg: obsess_over_services=1 ocsp_command=send_service_check ( don't check for hosts) I've defined send_service_check like this: # send_service_check command definition define command{ command_name send_service_check command_line /usr/sbin/send_nsca -H 10.0.0.2 -c /etc/nagios/send_nsca.cfg -d "," $HOSTNAME$,'$SERVICEDESC$',$SERVICESTATEID$,'$SERVICEOUTPUT$' } It does not work. 10.0.0.2 never gets anything, but I don't have any errors either.

I'm running Nagios on SUSe linux, 8.x, sles 9.3 and have been having this trouble since Nagios 1.1. Currently using v2.5. I'm currently using plugins v1.4.2, but the version doesn't seem to matter. The OS also doesn't seem to matter. We're running on an old 486, a new 64-bit Intel blade, and a z/Os mainframe virtual host and it bombs the same on all. Nagios crashes occassionally when entering or exiting from scheduled down time. I've seen the problem once or twice from other commands, but it seems the easiest to reproduce by scheduling downtime. In all earlier versions, the crash wrote a segfault to the logs, but v2.5 just dies quietly. The problem comes around once every 200-300 commands, but there isn't a magic number. It doesn't die on the same host name, either. We are currently showing around 11 critical items in the monitoring interface, and all the statuses and notifications are valid. We are using only active checks. The performance numbers look suspicious (90% over one minute) but with performance data monitoring disabled in nagios.cfg, I don't place much confidence in these numbers.

You were probably trying for something like -- command_line /usr/bin/httping -x $HOSTADDRESS$:$ARG1$ -c 1 -h www.google.com That would at least get httping running _BUT_ unless httping exits with the standard nagios exit codes to denote state and follows the nagios output guidelines (in the Developer Docs at http://nagiosplug.sf.net), you'll need to create a wrapper script for it so that it does. This is almost certainly going to be necessary. Essentially you'll need to look at the output of httping and determine if it's OK, WARNING, CRITICAL or UNKNOWN and tell nagios appropriately. At the minimum you'll need to follow the 'Print only one line of output' and 'Plugin Return Codes' section of that documentation. -- Marc ------------------------------ Message: 6 Date: Tue, 26 Sep 2006 00:49:49 +0300 From: "naim abu darwish" Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] httping through proxy To: nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net Message-ID: <3f8ec11c0609251449lde86f61w19b757096d8d221a at mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Hello Thnx for the quick reply Mark, httping actaully has a -N switch :: httping:: -N x Nagios mode 2: return 0 when all fine, 'x' i could add to that a time limit, say -t 2, standing for time limit is 2 seconds, and i sound the alarm when the value goes above that. but thats not what i really want, i want the actuall httping value, i want to make a graph out of it, with nagiosgrapher or pnp.

Alternatively do what I do. Create a servicedependency.cfg file that is created by a script that parses the objects.cache file. so to update: clear/empty servicedependency.cfg reload nagios wait until objects.cache is updated parse objects.cache for all the host/service pairs in the NRPE_dep servicegroup generate: define servicedependency{ dependent_host_name example dependent_service_description (all services from NRPE_dep for host example) host_name example service_description NRPE ... } and put them into servicedependency.cfg reload nagios to load the now non-empty servicedependency.cfg file.

What you're asking for is so widely variable, depending on what you check in your environment, that I wouldn't even be able to begin to guess. Figure out how many checks (and more importantly, what kind) you will be running, take a guess as to the bandwidth each check will use (a web page monitor may pull down a full page, or just headers, etc.), then do some math. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

I've had to implement a distributed systemand I have gone through some docs I found on sourceforge. I'll briefly mention what I have done: slave nagios 1. Installed the nsca pack 2. put send_nsca.cfg -> /etc 3. modified entry for ocsp_sommand in nagios,cfg 4. enabled obesess over services 5. enable_notifications set to 0 6. Defined a command called submit_check_result in my minimal.cfg 7. Written submit_check_result script and placed it in ../libexec server side: 1. Installed nsca pack 2. nsca,cfg -> /usr/local/nagios/etc 3. active service checks 1 for services checked from main nagios set to 0 for service checked from slave nagios 4. externetl commands checks enabled 5. passive service checks enabled 6. nsca -> /usr/local/nagios/bin 7. check existance of /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd 8. wrote nsca script in /etc/xinetd.d 9. added entry in /etc/services called NSCA 10. restarted xinetd Problem. When I send info from slave to main nagios by hand, it is sent and reported by the main nagios, correctly. When I remove /usr/local/nagios/libexec/submit_check_result, I get an error indicating that the slave nagios is trying to execute a non-existing script. When I re-instate the submit_check_result script, nothing happens. No error in any log. I do not see any attempt on the network ( tcpdump) that the slave is trying to contact the main nagios. I have also added a little echo statement in the submit_check_result script that writes to a file. This way I can see that the script was executed. This does not happen which means the submit_check_result script is not executed. Can someone help , please ?? John -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Message-ID: Hello! I'm looking for a possibility to view the performance info of a Nagios worker process in a clustered environment. (Because otherwise I will not see the statistics of the active checks, if all my checks are passively sent to the master) The default behaviour of the extinfo.cgi?type=4 page is to display the Nagios process performance data of the local running master server. Is there any parameter to tell Nagios (this CGI page) to display the performance data of another Nagios cluster node? (The nagiostats utility can access those data by defining the configuration file of the worker process (e.g. -c /etc/nagios-worker/nagios.cfg)) By the way, is there any documentation of all possible Nagios CGI-parameters (for example for extinfo.cgi or cmd.cgi) that are allowed?

Check your apache manual for apache questions. But apache will not record timing issues untill you run fresh out and then you get error log events. So the only way to test it is by being the client.

A few questions: What version of nagios are you running? When you added the echo statement was IT the only thing in the script? or did you leave the rest of the script intact? What are the permissions of the directories, files of where your submit_check_result script is? Did you try running the script by hand as the user nagios runs under? PS: Give an example of what your submit_check_result script looks like. Hi Bryan !!! Thanks for your mail. I have since dicovered that the problem was the permissions of my send_nsca.cfg file !! For completeness: Version of nagios is 2.4 The echo statement was simply added with all other statements intact The permissions of the script files are readable and executable by anyone. It is owned by nagios:nagios. As I said above, I slipped up with not checking the send_nsca.cfg file !!! Thanks for your time, Bryan. Much appreciated !!!!

Something that I hope you guys will know a way around. I'm running version 2.5 by the by. Membership of these groups can be defined in two locations: * In the definition of the member itself, eg the host or the contact. * In the definition of the group, eg the host group or the contact group. The documentation clearly states that you can use either one of these methodes to assign membership of a group. So why is it that Nagios - forces- you to at least have one member in the group definition? In our case, I want to put -all- the group assignments in the member definitions (due to the subscription model I'm using for my service checks). I don't particularly feel like mucking about in the group config, when all I should be doing is editing the member definition. With the contact groups, this isn't too big a deal. I've made a dummy account that is a member of each group, but who doesn't partake of any notifications. Fine. Dandy... It works, but it's a kludge. Nasty thing though is that it's not that easy with host groups. Fine, I can make a dummy host that's a member of all of my host groups, but in our case that would "subscribe" the dummy to all of the service checks that I've defined. Not a fun thing, I assure you :) So... Do you guys: A) Know a way around the required "members" entry for both groups? Doing away with it completely? B) Know of a neat trick to work around the required "members" for the host group definitions? Cheers! Thomas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

If so, the sad answer is that you can't. Both those programs store the "allowed_hosts" variable as a string in memory and converts the incoming IP-address to its string notation equivalence. They then match the stringified IP-address with whatever you put on allowed_hosts.

The group does need to be defined separately from the hosts, and it does need to have at least one member, but (on the setups I work with, anyway) that member does *not* need to be defined in the hostgroup definition. For example, I have quite a few hostgroup definitions that look like this, and they work fine, as long as at least one host is defined as a member in its host definition: define hostgroup { hostgroup_name blade alias Blade Servers } ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

Remarkable. What you describe is exactly what I want, but in my case it appears to complain about the fact that my "define hostgroup" is lacking a "members" line. Also, the Nagios documentation has the "members" line coloured red in the hostgroup config section, indicating it a requirement for a HG definition. Hmmm... I'll hammer on it some more. Maybe I need a larger hammer. /me grabs a mallet. Cheers! Thomas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

You mean to pass the date of the last $hoststate and handle the loop by handler? Nagios cannot do this? I've created test host with non-existing ip (on my net) and when host goes down/hard the handler is executed only _once_ and from yesterday (if i remember) event handler never was executed second time (nagios logs are also without something about executing handler for more than once) regards orzeh ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

I mean if The event handler is called by nagios on state change (including count of checks until hard state) but no other times. So, if you want something to be continually called then you might need to do it separately. You might like to try playing with the is_volatile=1, and stalking_options=c to see if this results in multiple calls to the event handler on every critical check rather than just on state changes?

However, hostgroups still need to *have* members. The reason the 'members' line is optional is the introduction of the 'hostgroups' variable in the host object definition. So, unless at least one of your hosts have a line saying "hostgroups your-hostgroup-name" you *do* need the 'members' line. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.ericsson at op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

"Permission denied: exec of '/usr/local/nagios/sbin/status.cgi' failed" You need to make sure the user apache is running as can execute the status.cgi binary. The easiest way to do that is to do like this, assuming the apache pseudo-user is called "httpd" su httpd cd /usr/local cd nagios cd sbin ./status.cgi The reason for doing it in steps is that you likely have not only faulty permissions on the status.cgi program, but somewhere along the path as well. Doing it like this will let you see at which points you need to modify the permissions in order for httpd to be able to execute the program, so just chmod your way there. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.ericsson at op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

I am not expert on Linux so I don't understand when you write: "..but for RedHat you *should* get everything needed by the simple expedient of yum install gd-devel" What do you mean? 2) I performed: su apache cd /usr/local/ cd nagios cd sbin ./status.gci getcgivars(): Unsupported REQUEST_METHOD -> '' I'm guessing you're trying to execute the CGI from a command line. In order to do that, you need to set the REQUEST_METHOD environment variable to either "GET", "HEAD", or "POST". When using the GET and HEAD methods, arguments can be passed to the CGI by setting the "QUERY_STRING" environment variable. If you're using the POST method, data is read from standard input. Also of note: if you've enabled authentication in the CGIs, you must set the "REMOTE_USER" environment variable to be the name of the user you're "authenticated" as. What does it mean?

Do you have SELinux turned on? If so, turn it off and try accessing the page through the web again. Try Google or the RedHat user forums for info on how to do that, cause I have absolutely no idea.

Nagios is telling you what is wrong! Check your checkcommands.cfg os whatever command.cfg you have with command definitions for your plugins.

Get your hands on the manual and learn the usage of the yum tool to install and update packages. In fact one can even install nagios and update that way without a glitch if just add the dag wiers repository. Just add http://hvdkooij.xs4all.nl/linux-server/dag.repo to /etc/yum.repos.d/ and you are all set if you run RHEL 3 or 4 or one of their clones.

And since snmpget is -exactly- what I'm using inside the script, you can indeed easily add these parameters to the command. :) All sorted. You know? I think I might put this into my version as well!
