From MJoyce at ccia.unsw.edu.au Thu Mar 1 01:39:49 2007 From: MJoyce at ccia.unsw.edu.au (Matthew Joyce) Date: Thu, 1 Mar 2007 11:39:49 +1100 Subject: [Fwd: Re: Service Dependencies - How do you doyours?] Message-ID: <2A67EA781EC7F949A2AB0A0D07A86C6A01DA6058@mail01.ccia.local> I prefixed the serviced which depended on an SNMP service "SNMP -", then I cobbled a python script to search for those services. It outputs a single service_dependency_HOSTNAME_SNMP file which I put in a service_dependencies folder. Each time I add a server or service I run this script and pass the host name to it. It works well, I'll probably do the same for NRPE. The only thing that stops me sharing the script is that it's a real kludge and once it worked I stopped working on it.

I've got it on my to-do list to create a shell script (probably PHP) that will create a service_dependencies.cfg file for you with each host and it's NRPE services. I'll try and get round to it this weekend and post on Nagios Exchange. I'll probably even post it as a page on my webserver so you won't have to have PHP locally. HTH Andy.

You will definitely need to escape or quote the > to prevent the shell interpreting it. I don't know if this error is being produced by check_nrpe, by nsclient++, or by Nagios itself. Certainly on our system, Nagios 1.4 does not check commands for illegal characters, and check_nrpe 2.5.2 does not either, so my guess is that nsclient++ is doing it. Make sure you have your parameters quoted and check nsclient++ for definitions of illegal characters...

It's a program that you run on a Windows box to collect information from the Windows Performance Data Helper (PDH) library that Microsoft provides. It would have no function on a *nix box. In our case, we have a Linux Nagios installation which uses NRPE to connect remotely to Windows machines and runs the wincheck_counter.exe program as a plugin which returns whatever information about that windows box we want (like cpu load at that moment, for example). The PDH.DLL file is really only needed if your particular windows box doesn't have it already. Win2K, WinXP and Win2K3 already have it although I've had some weird issues with wincheck_counter.exe on Win2K, but maybe that's just me. Hope that helps.

Is your event handler executable by the nagios user? I'd add debug output to the event handler that gets written to a file to make sure that it's actually running and getting the input you expect. For example, in all my event handlers written in sh, I have the following as the first thing done -- LOGFILE=/usr/local/nagios/var/eventhandler.log; export LOGFILE echo -n `date` . " " >> $LOGFILE 2>&1 echo "$0 IFP service check ($1) ($2) ($3) ($4)... " >> $LOGFILE 2>&1 And lines like the following at appropriate places -- echo -n `date` . " " >> $LOGFILE 2>/usr/local/nagios/var/eventhandler.log 2>&1 echo -n "$0 Restarting IFP service (2nd soft critical state) on $4... " >> $LOGFILE 2>&1 /usr/bin/ssh $4 'sudo /etc/init.d/n2h2-ifpserver restart' >>$LOGFILE 2>&1 This allows for intimate tracing of the execution of the event handler to catch any problems. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

I would like to use Nagios to monitor my DB server which has no outside IP Address, but is on the same network as my webserver. I was wondering if you guys have any easy solutions for this? Right now I am thinking about setting up nagios to do a nrpe_check on a different port on my webserver, and configure my firewall to forward that port to my dbserver, which will also have the nrpe daemon running on it.

If I were going to make a recommendation, it would be: Don't do it. You're asking for trouble. There are reasons people don't make their DB boxes available from the internet.

Worse, if you don't have proper dependencies (between your NRPE checks and a check for NRPE itself), you can very easily spam your cell into oblivion ;) Also, some DB machines deliberately have no default route (or one not letting them leave their nets). So passive sending is not possibel, either. So, from a security standpoint, I'd recommend the "webpage does the checks and is checked by check_http" approach.

Worse, if you don't have proper dependencies (between your NRPE checks and a check for NRPE itself), you can very easily spam your cell into oblivion ;) Also, some DB machines deliberately have no default route (or one not letting them leave their nets). So passive sending is not possibel, either. So, from a security standpoint, I'd recommend the "webpage does the checks and is checked by check_http" approach.

Requirements on Centos 4.4 are met with packages available through the common repositories. Just did `yum install perl-Net-XMPP' and the required packages were installed. Now the challenge is to find a jabber server that will work with this perl module. (XS4ALL is listed as non-working.)

If you've just installed things, make sure you read the documentation on starting Nagios. Some other things you should check in order to resolve this error include: 1. Check the Nagios log file for messages relating to startup or status data errors. 2. Always verify configuration options using the *-v* command-line option before starting or restarting Nagios! 3. Make sure you've compiled the main program and the CGIs to use the same status data storage options (i.e. text file or database). If the main program is storing status data in a text file and the CGIs are trying to read status data from a database, you'll have problems.

( under reporting link the sub-links that qare working are alert history,alert summary, notifications and event log. In configuration link , view config sublink is working). I have a question. If i recongifure it, with the main config file and stuff, would it overwrite it and is it going to be ok or would it mess it up?

My next step is getting it to run within Nagios. The script has been copied to the libexec directory, and I have added a command definition to the commands.cfg file.

Configure your services to send a few pings (I'd say anything between three and ten but your mileage may vary) and consider using either check_fping or check_icmp instead of check_ping. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

Whether a critical alert gets generated or not can depend on the notification_options in the service definition, the host definition and/or the contact definition. Whether notifications are generated at all can depend on notification_enabled in the host or service definition, on the timeperiod in the contact definition, globally in the nagios configuration and it can be dynamically enabled/disabled for hosts, services and for nagios as a whole. My guess is that it might be something quite simple in the notification_options somewhere. See http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/notifications.html Another option worth trying is check_for_orphaned_services in your main nagios.cfg file.

Now, when I logged in as nagiosadmin and trying to check if the services under Monitoring list works, they dont seem to work and the information that it provides is the below. I configured the additional permissions to CGI also with system information, commands, all hosts,services according to the documentation. It does not seem to work. Can anyone help me? I'm a newbie and need some help. Whoops! Error: Could not read host and service status information! The most common cause of this error message (especially for new users), is the fact that Nagios is not actually running. If Nagios is indeed not running, this is a normal error message. It simply indicates that the CGIs could not obtain the current status of hosts and services that are being monitored. If you've just installed things, make sure you read the documentation on starting Nagios. Some other things you should check in order to resolve this error include: 1. Check the Nagios log file for messages relating to startup or status data errors. 2. Always verify configuration options using the -v command-line option before starting or restarting Nagios! 3. Make sure you've compiled the main program and the CGIs to use the same status data storage options (i.e. text file or database). If the main program is storing status data in a text file and the CGIs are trying to read status data from a database, you'll have problems. Make sure you read the documentation on installing, configuring and running Nagios thoroughly before continuing.

I noticed that immediately after my daily log rotation, the current state of all hosts and services is entered in the log file. As I have thousands of hosts/services, this makes the log (in my case) unnecessarily large, and was hoping to find an option to prevent those states from being logged. Here is a sample of entries I am referring to: Informational Message[03-07-2007 00:00:00] CURRENT SERVICE STATE: ;Ping;OK;HARD;1;PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 29.40 ms Informational Message[03-07-2007 00:00:00] CURRENT SERVICE STATE: ;Ping;OK;HARD;1;PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 73.01 ms Informational Message[03-07-2007 00:00:00] CURRENT HOST STATE: ;UP;HARD;1;PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 10.64 ms Informational Message[03-07-2007 00:00:00] CURRENT HOST STATE: ;UP;HARD;1;PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 28.26 ms The documentation references the "log_initial_states" entry in the main configuration file, which seems like it should control this option.

I would gues sthat latency refers to the average time between the start of a service/host check and the time it finishes. So near 0 is rather good. Having a schedula running 3 minutes slow seems to indicate the system is having a bit of a hard time keeping up. Given it is a test version I would not be surprised if there is some error in these calculations.

Message-ID: <0BD0B10BB7C83641AF55A85477F75F9701266272@DEFMX001.deuser.de.intra> Hi, i have a strange problem i quite don't understand to handle. Question: Is Nagios dropping service checks when executing a host event handler? Situation: 1. We are monitoring 85 Windows Servers with about 630 service checks being performed. check_ping is being run on all servers. 2. Any and all performance data is being passed to a custom shell script. Among others, this script is writing the performance data to a text file 3. The text file containing the performance data is then passed to our data warehouse in order to generate reports. Problem: Per day, there are about 150 checks (Ping) NOT being executed at all. When checking our external text file, i see (example here) that a check at 16:23 is missing. Actually, it seems like check_ping at 16:23 was not executed on ANY host at all. 02-19-2007 16:21:18#SRVDE050#Ping#OK#PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 4.24 ms# SRVDE050#02-19-2007 16:21:18#Ping#PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 4.24 ms 02-19-2007 16:22:18#SRVDE050#Ping#OK#PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 1.21 ms# SRVDE050#02-19-2007 16:22:18#Ping#PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 1.21 ms 02-19-2007 16:24:45#SRVDE050#Ping#OK#PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 7.24 ms# SRVDE050#02-19-2007 16:24:45#Ping#PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 7.24 ms Problem source could be: When checking nagios.log, i see that a host event handler was being executed at that time. Workflow: 1. check_ping reports a problem (host down, for example) 2. nagios executes the configured host event handler This is the point where it seems to me, that ANY check related to the same check_command (here: check_ping) are being dropped at that time. Maybe i am missing something here...? We use Nagios 2.6. Any help is appreciated.

Each wan link is connected to both routers on each side - so any single failing router or wan link does not cause a network problem. I used the following config on the nagios server: RouterA1: parents SwitchA RouterA2: parents SwitchA RouterB1: parents RouterA1,RouterA2 RouterB2: parents RouterA1,RouterA2 SwitchB: parents RouterB1,RouterB2 The problem is: if any given router fails nagios states "blocking outage" and stops sending messages for any other system on the remote site. This is clearly wrong, since all systems are perfectly reachable. Is there a mistake in my config or have i hit a bug?

For example, if you were to weight the importance of your servers on a scale from one to three, a highly important one might be in there three times, like so: hostname server_A_1 ... hostname server_A_2 ... hostname server_A_3 ... if you want to get fancy, then only server_A_1 does any actual checking, then runs an eventhandler or something to submit a passive check result for the other two. Course, this will clutter up the display of the rest of nagios immensely, as well as making the count of critical/warning/ok hosts/services be incorrect, so I would recommend NOT doing it, but if all you are concerned about are the health meters, it might have the desired effect... :) > > ----------------------------------------------- > Israel Brewster > Computer Support Technician > Frontier Flying Service Inc. > 5245 Airport Industrial Rd > Fairbanks, AK 99709 > (907) 450-7250 x293 > ----------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

I was expecting the tactical overview page to say that there are no active checks for service/host. However the tactical overview page says that for the active checks "X services disabled" and "Y hosts disabled" and shows them in red color. I am not sure if this is correct or incorrect. However I certainly does not want to see anything in "red" on tactical overview page unless it really is down. One more thing regarding the passive host/service configuration that I am not able to understand is the "check_command" configuration. When I put a host/service in passive_check_mode, I understand that nagios will update the status for such a device based on external command results fed to nagiso.cmd. My question is why do I need to specify the check_command in this case? I have supplied the check_dummy which essentially returns 0 always. Is my nagios really showing the status as reported by the passive external command status or is showing from the result of check_dummy command. I am sure I am missing something, but not sure what?

If you run strictly passive checks, it doesn't matter what you put in as the check command, since it will never get run. If you turn on freshness checking, though, this command will be run if the box receiving check results doesn't receive one within the expected timeframe. If your checks are supposed to come in at regular intervals, it can be helpful to put in a check that always fails in the config, so you get alerted if your passive checks stop coming in. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

Assuming the "Central" server is not able to access the computers in the remote sites, I am using passive checks through NSCA to get the active results done by the "Agent" nagios. How do you define the hosts of the computers in the central server? Do you use localhost as the host IP? Do you use freshness checking of hosts in the central server? I had an idea to use scheduled checking of the host on the "Agent" , and send passive host results to the central nagios, if freshness checking discovers the results are not fresh, It runs a script that put "Info: host info is stale", and will exit with the same error code the host is currently in (from the a macro value), I think my way of handling this is wrong, as scheduled host checking must be done on the agent, which is bad for performance.

The Nagios documentation suggest leaving active host checks on the central server as you normally can't have freshness checking on them. I believe that's just a matter of personal preference and you can have them distributed just like the rest. > Assuming the ?Central? server is not able to access the computers in the > remote sites, I am using passive checks through NSCA to get the active > results done by the ?Agent? nagios. That's another idea. You can have the "check_host_alive" command run nrpe with args, though it's considered a big security risk. It shouldn't be a problem though is there's no users on the lan and it is properly secured. Note that the additional latency of running nrpe could impact performances if there's a lot of hosts. > How do you define the hosts of the computers in the central server?

Another solution is to use Nagios 3 which has a completely different logic for host checks. You shouldn't have performance impact anymore with a properly set-up Nagios 3. You must keep in mind that's it'S alpha software and can (and likely will) have bugs. Thomas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

It will create a new file in new/ with the hostgroup_template.head as header and one properly modified hostgroup_template.cfg per hosts in the for loop after the header.

All our systems are running Linux. For some time now the master server has been running out of memory between 4:50 and 5:00 such that the server either kernel panics (rarely) or it kills all useful processes. To try and investigate the problem I have been running at commands to run "vmstat 15 160" and "date; ps -ef; sleep 15" (160 times) to record system activity at 15 second intervals for 40 minutes, i.e. from 4:30 until 5:10. This has revealed that the problem is caused by a) nsca processes starting and not being completed (today's maximum count was 4447) until they all suddenly complete at about 4:50. During this time vmstat shows that memory usage increases slowly, but it is all released when the nsca processes run. About 10 minutes later there are many separate nagios processes which do not complete (183); as the nagios process is quite large this fills system memory and swap space which effectively kills the system. You might think, given the time that this is happening, that this is affected by cron, but for this morning I had retimed cron.daily to run at 10:02 rather than 4:02. Has anyone seen anything like this ? I can say from the master server logs that no tests seem to be recorded from about 4:00 onwards; if they system survives they start after that. Any help would be appreciated. The server is a blade server with a single CPU but it is running with hyper-threading on (if that makes a difference); the kernel is 2.6.0-42.0.8 Any suggestions would be appreciated.

You may want to try running nsca in --single mode. You can potentially lose some slave checks, but you would never get the high number of nsca processes. We've seen situations where a high number of nsca processes makes the nagios server crawl, slowing other things down. > During this time vmstat shows that memory usage increases slowly, > but it > is all released when the nsca processes run.

IIRC, passive check results are processed by the main nagios process, so shouldn't be responsible for multiple nagios processes. There are multiple nagios processes for parallelised service checks - perhaps you could restrict the number of parallelised checks?

Do I need a different plugin? You can check storage by using check_snmp_storage[1] wrote by Patrick Proy. AIX SNMP agents should provide HOSTS-RESSOURCES-MIB: I've already set some services using this plugins for a customer. You can also use Patrick Proy's plugins to get CPU load (check_snmp_load[2]) and memory usage (check_snmp_mem[3]). Since AIX 5.2, you must enable aixmibd sub-agent to get "Paging Space" statistics (I can publish a plugin that support this IBM-AIX-MIB if you need). > I also want to put a password on this instead of making it public, do I > just change all words that say public to the passphrase I want? Right, you've to modify this string to change the community. Note : with SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c, this community will be transfered without any protection on the network. You must use at least SNMPv3 to get a more secure protocol. AIX snmpdv3[4] agent also support this protocol version.

Hi, I've already and successfully use some AIX 5.2 systems and retreives OID from H-R-M (hrSystem, hrStorage, hrDevice and hrSWInstalled tables). Did you have hostmibd[1] running ?

Is this part of the standard plugin distribution or is it extra? Message-ID: I compiled Nagios 2.7 and the latest plugins from scratch on a very barebones server. I later discovered that it was barebones enough not to have the openssl libs on it and so check_http's https functionality didn't work. I'm wondering if something similar happened with check_snmp, because I don't have it in my libexec directory. I suppose I could've used the debian universe version of Nagios, but it was stuck back at 2.4 and gave me trouble during install anyway.

Hi, According to SNMPv2-MIB, syUpTime (OID you're talking about) is: "The time (in hundredths of a second) since the network management portion of the system was last re-initialized.". If you want to get host uptime, you've better to check hrSystemUptime from HOST-RESOURCES-MIB : "The amount of time since this host was last initialized. Note that this is different from sysUpTime in the SNMPv2-MIB [RFC1907] because sysUpTime is the uptime of the network management portion of the system." I've never used IRIX but I think you must have "host-snmp" subagent to be running in order to implements RFC1514 (or HOST-RESOURCES-MIB) : http://techpubs.sgi.com/library/tpl/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?coll=0650&db=relnotes&fname=/usr/relnotes/host_snmp Regards, -- Rapha?l 'SurcouF' Bordet ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

This release primarily fixes 2 quite serious bugs - one which we believe to have been present since v1.0.0, and one that was introduced with v1.0.2. The first bug saw the backgrounds to servers in the Network Browser disappear when a host descended into a "network error" or "down" state, and the second saw peculiar behaviour when hosts and services changed state (particularly when the length of the plugin output varied drastically between index rebuilds.) This may have resulted in spurious "unreadable ...." errors in the display, or check results being shown under a different service to what it should have been. 1.0.3 also improves NLG's decision of when to rebuild it's internal indexes, stops it opening a file it didn't need to, and indexes Nagios' "info {}" section in the status file. Unless any other bugs come to light, this is the last maintenance release in the 1.0 series before 1.1 is due later in the year. NLG has been tested with Nagios 2.4 - 2.8. I urge anyone using any previous 1.0.* release to upgrade.

A typical nagios installation uses /bin/mail to send out notifications. Check your notification commands to verify (usually host-notify-by-email and service-notify-by-email). In this configuration, /bin/mail uses whatever MTA you have running on the nagios machine (sendmail, postfix, exim, etc) for delivery so if you need to specify a particular upstream SMTP server that all mail must flow through you'll need to configure the MTA to do so appropriately. When searching for MTA specific docs on this it's usually referred to as smarthosting. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Do you have 'notifications_enabled 1' in your host and service definitions or templates?

I have the nrpe running as a daemon at the moment to keep things simple, and without SSL, have the nrpe.cfg tweaked to run on port: 5666/U: nagios/G: nagios and the example check defined: Command[check_load]=/usr/local/lib/nagios/plugins/check_load -w 15,10,5 -c 30,25,20 And run the following from the nagios server while the nrpe daemon is running on the remote host: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -n -H remote.host.name -p 5666 -t 30 -c check_load And I continually get the proverbal nrpe[427]: [ID 421412 daemon.error] Could not read request from client, bailing out... error. Any thoughts or ideas on what I could fix/check/reconfigure?

However, it seems there is no "convenient" way to --enable-neb (it is not enabled and there does not appear to be any way to enable it using the port). To this end I have downloaded the nagios 2.7 source and am intending to compile it using the same FreeBSD port options, but this time, include the --enable-neb configure switch. How feasible is it to just replace the current nagios binary with the new one? Or will this fail horribly?

The initial problem was that when the proxy was down, or rebooted, we got thousands of alerts from the services that used the proxy to do checks. We thought that to fix this we would make all the WMI checks dependent upon the NRPE service running on the proxy. This way when the parent NRPE service was down or unreachable, the WMI checks would not be processed. This is NOT working to due the time it takes for the NRPE service to go from soft-down to hard-down (during this time tons of alerts are sent out). We enabled soft state dependency and this fixed the problem, but it will KILL our WMI proxy as its now doing MANY more checks (the NRPE parent service is constantly checked to get the current state as opposed to using the last know state, which is what happens when soft state dependencies are turned off) So what is the answer to my problem? I need to make sure that when the NRPE service running on the proxy is down or unreachable, ALL wmi checks immediately stop and not even a single alert is sent out.

Hi Jim, I see what you're getting at, but do not think it is relevant to the situation at hand. Sometimes, individual services in my host do fall, and I'd sure be glad to know about them. On other occasions, it's the whole server (or rather the network and crappy provider) that malfunctions - and it is then that I receive the army of notifications as each and every service is discovered as "failing". - Guy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

What people have been trying to tell you is that you don't configure Nagios for SMTP authentication. Nagios itself doesn't use SMTP. You need to configure the mailer on your machine (whatever you happen to use) to relay through your SMTP server, and that's also where you need to configure the authentication. How you do that depends on which mailer you use. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

How are your host checks configured? If you have host checks enabled and a valid host check configured, Nagios will run it as soon as any service goes into a non-OK state. Usually this would prevent any service alerts from going out if the host is completely down. It sounds like you may just need to tweak your host checks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Please would someone explain why appending to the command file is deprecated. I ask because I can have several nsca processes running every second; if each of them writes to the command file, the output from previous nsca processes has been lost; this would explain why my master server issues so many tests itself because test results become stale. I should add that the command file is a pipe and it is reaped every 4 seconds. Perhaps I am misunderstanding something, about the nature of a pipe ? Or perhaps the documentation in the configuration file is misleading/wrong ?

Please would someone explain why appending > to the command file is deprecated. I ask because I can have several Semi-educated commentary follows -- The 'command file' is more properly named a 'command pipe'. It's not a real file and therefore appending to it makes no sense. A pipe is essentially a FIFO buffer. Data is written to it by one process and read by another in a sequential fashion. If the reading process can't keep up with the writing process, your kernel will buffer the writes up to a point depending on the OS. For linux kernel < 2.6.11 the buffer was 4096 bytes. For > 2.6.11, the buffer is 65535 bytes. Nagios also has its own internal buffers to help process the pipe faster. With nagios-2.7, these are controlled by the external_command_buffer_slots option in nagios.cfg. You can also control how often nagios checks for data in the pipe with the command_check_interval setting. You certainly want that to be -1 and not every 4 seconds. -1 tells nagios to check as often as possible. Depending on your check frequency, it sounds like nagios isn't able to keep up with your check submissions, almost certainly related to your checking the pipe every 4 seconds only. At ~100 bytes per check, you could only accept 40 results in 4 seconds before dropping. If you're doing 16,000 checks every 5 minutes that's ~213 check results every 4 seconds. You can do the math based on your actual sizes/intervals... Verify that you have a good amount of buffer slots (use nagiostats to see current utilization) and that you're checking external commands as fast as possible. I'm only doing 1/4 of the passive checks you are so you may be hitting limits that I haven't experienced yet but it doesn't appear so at this point. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

Unfortunately Nagios::Config was way too buggy to work on complex configs so I went up with a solution using Nagios::StatusLog. The command looks like this: ./TrapReset.pl -c /path/to/nagios.cfg It will look up the status and command files from the Nagios config, parse the status and then force an active check for services matching these criterias: 1. Should not be scheduled to be checked 2. Has active checks enabled On my setup this roughly translate to all my traps (They all have the following proprieties: check_period none; max_check_attempts 1; is_volatile 1; active_checks_enabled 1 ) Alternatively you can look in the code and replace: if ($$log{'SERVICE'}{$host}{$service}{'should_be_scheduled'} == 0 && $$log{'SERVICE'}{$host}{$service}{'active_checks_enabled'} == 1) { With the following line (already there, commented-out): if ($service =~ /^.+Trap$/) { Where '^.+Trap$' is the regexp to match. It will use the regexp to match services on which to run a forced check. You can also change the command sent, say if you want to submit passive check results instead. This is by no way a finished product and I assume the user has at least basic Perl programming skills to make this program suit his needs.

We have a similar system, with SNMP alerts coming into Nagios, and use the Freshness Check to set the status to OK after a set period of time. Services are set to volatile, max_checks=1, so they notify immediately on receiving a trap no matter what the current state.

I have approximately 20 hosts with 35 services set up, with notifications only set to send for service alerts. This was all working fine up until a couple of weeks ago, when notifications for services seem to have stopped. Something may have changed in the configuration at this point, but I have gone back over it all and have not been able to find the problem. If I turn on notification for hosts (by replacing 'n' in the host notification options in the contact definitions with 'u,d') they work fine, and I did receive a single service notification yesterday for one particular service, though when I tried to recreate the circumstances, I didn't receive it again. It is not a problem with my notification command, as I was using the same command for the hosts, plus the notification does not even show up in the event log so it doesn't seem to be even attempting to run it. This leads me to believe it is failing one of the notification checks, though I can't for the life of me figure out which one, I've gone through them multiple times to try to figure it out. Is there anyway I can get some information on what nagios is doing when I get a HARD service alert, and where it is deciding it doesn't need to send a notification? Thanks, Ben James. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

At this time I'm still running 1.x version 1.4.1. I'm trying to make the migration to nagios-2.8, but I'm struggling with object definitions for services in 2.x. in 1.x I define hostgroups with member hosts. In the service definition I tie the hostgroup to the service. Easy binding of large numbers of hosts to a single service, keeping the config sane. I have ten distributed nagios hosts with several hundred hosts and thousands of service checks, so I cannot believe that services need to be defined on an individual basis for hosts, so I'm assuming that I'm missing something fundamental to 2.x. If I have 2500 current services, am I to understand that I need to define 2500 different services? There has to be a short hand method for this that I'm missing. Can someone point me to a best practice that they've been able to implement in 2.x that will allow large numbers of services to be defined in a minimally managed scenario. Any suggestions appreciated. thanks for your time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

I guess my idea was that a trap should stay on until it is handled. For various reasons we're not really using traps yet, but the system is there for the day we start using them (soon hopefully). Maybe after we use them a bit we'll decide on changing to "Self-reset" traps. Thanks for bringing is on though, that's a good suggestion... :) Thomas -----Original Message----- From: Steve Shipway [mailto:s.shipway at auckland.ac.nz] Sent: Tue 13-Mar-07 19:51 To: Thomas Guyot-Sionnest; nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net Subject: RE: [Nagios-users] Trap reset script > It will look up the status and command files from the Nagios config, parse > the status and then force an active check for services matching these > criterias: > 1.

I would really love to be able to do Nagios AAA through LDAP. I also set up LDAP authentication for Nagios and, I thing, it's only limited by the contact_name in Nagios not matching the LDAP-authenticated HTTP user; Our LDAP users are in the form "uid=cbu,dc=mycompany,dc=be" where contact_name are in the form "cbu" (that's the uid in the LDAP dn... so close to the goal...). I just read in the Apache log documentation that the userid of the person requesting the document as determined by HTTP authentication is typically provided to CGI scripts in the REMOTE_USER environment variable. So, if Nagios cgi do use this environment variable, it would be in my case as simple as adding a small filter at the start of all Nagios cgi.

You can delimit this line with the | (pipe) character to include more performance data, but it certainly won't get you anywhere near what you want. Nagios 3 does have extended output capabilities for plugins allowing you to return more details from the plugin check. See http://nagios.cvs.sourceforge.net/*checkout*/nagios/nagios/html/docs/pluginapi.htmlfor more details. Rob -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Simply provide a small script that copies across the files you need to your remote splunk server and then set the global_event_handler to be enabled. This would copy it across every time an event occurred, so you may need to put some logic into your script that only copied after a certain duration to avoid too many connections to your remote host. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Possibly. ./configure almost certainly wasn't able to locate the mail binary by itself and probably complained about it. Normally there isn't a problem locating it but if it's installed in an unusual place or not installed at all the result would be what you experienced. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

Nagios < 2.x only supports one line of plugin output. Nagios-3 will support multi-line plugin output. You could work around the notification limitation by having your plugin include the contents of the file in the e-mail you send. You _might_ be able to force multi-line display in the web interface by substituting all carriage returns in the output with
and only sending one long line of text but the formatting still wouldn't be right as standard rendering will reduce your tabbed columns to single space separated unless you do more processing (i.e. inserting multiple  ) -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

The problem is that it's not a printable character (carriage return) so kwrite and vi just aren't showing it. Try 'vi -b filename'. That will put vi in binary mode which will display everything in the file as a printable character (^M for [CTRL-M] in this case). vim, often used as a replacement for vi these days, seems to be better at automatically setting binary mode when necessary from my experience. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

It is a windows carriage return. Open up a shell and try to see if you can find dos2unix which dos2unix If it finds dos2unix then run it as follows to convert the ^M to the unix equivalent dos2unix filename After you've rid the file of the ^M you should be ok to run it. Now you should open your kwrite preferences and find out why it's using ^M for Carriage Returns. From the sounds of it, if you are going to use kwrite for writing unix scripts you will always encounter this problem unless you either correct kwrite preferences (assuming it's configurable), or start using a different editor.

Does anybody have such a patch to share? Thanks. Let me tell you further, who are interested and have time: I have set up Nagios to check only up/down state for about 300 hosts. However, it could not finish checks in desired time period. Even, my host check latency was about 400 secs!. I have noticed host checks were unable to be done in parallel. So for each host I have added a "HOST STATUS" service to check liveliness of host with ping (using host_check_alive plugin). During this process, host check latency and service check latency were fallen under 5 secs. Very nice. But, It is impossible for me to say Nagios to check a host five times with "1 minute delays" more to decide if a host is down. It checks host 5 times eventually with 10 seconds delay.

Nagios is very service-centric. Nagios monitors services first and foremost. Hosts will only be checked when a service on the host fails. If a service is up, then the host _must_ be up. Nagios-3 introduces parallelized host checks and benefits of doing regular host checks in addition to service checks but services are still the primary focus IMHO. > But, It is impossible for me to say Nagios to check a host five times with > "1 minute delays" more to decide if a host is down.

That's correct, at least for nagios-2 and prior. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Hi Matthew, Me too. Try Splunk-2-Splunk. It will work one-to-many if you like as well. In this setup, you'd run one Splunk server co-located on your Nagios box and then another Splunk server on a central log host.

From what I've read, for check_commands I can define a way to pass arguments at runtime by using "command parameter_1!parameter2....!parameter_n" if I state $ARG1$...$ARGn$ in the definition part. Is there anything like that for the notification commands ? What I'd like to do is send personalized notifications based on the contact specified in my configuration. I'm trying to call gammu/gnokii to send an SMS with different texts depending on who's being notified and I'd like to avoid if possible the definition of each and every particular notification command. Is there any way to do this (something like specify in the notification command just script-name "Custom Text" "mobile number" ) ? Or do I have to create specific entries for each one of them ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

We ran into some other issues while doing this. We have grouped checks together in one service. For eg. we have a bunch of log file checks and all are grouped as one service "log_check". When we acknowledge on error, since it stops the notification on that service, future alerts (due to different checks failing) are also missed. Is there any way to solve this problem. Other than having 1:1 mapping for service to checks is there any other solution. Thanks. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Bored stiff? Loosen up...

It looks like we can look forward to some big improvements in Nagios 3. See http://nagios.cvs.sourceforge.net/*checkout*/nagios/nagios/html/docs/whatsnew.html . Until then, make sure you use check_icmp or check_fping rather then check_ping for your host checks; these will complete much faster.

Sorry, I think that I have confused the discussion by not appreciating the difference between service_reaper_frequency (which is 4 secs) and command_check_interval (which is -1). After restarting nagios this morning (Thur 15/03 - the master server had panic'ed due to lack of memory), I issued the command "wc -l /var/log/nagios/rw/nagios.cmd" and got the answer 1003 (this is command pipe). If I understand you correctly, there were 1003 commands in the pipe waiting to be processed by the server (understandable as the master server had just restarted and the slaves had plenty of commands waiting to be processed), but the operation of command wc actually discarded these commands by reading through the pipe. At present I am running nagios 2.6. I want to upgrade to nagios 2.8, but as I also use ndoutils I need to compile the latest version of that and update the SQL tables that it writes. If the problem does not go away with the latest version of the server, I will raise the issues again, but nay other comments would be much appreciated.

Yes, follow standard setup guidelines and minimize your usage of host checks. Define all your hosts. Configure a host check that runs once and exits quickly; check-host-alive with a single ping is usually sufficient. Have it run a couple of times if you're paranoid (max_check_attempts). *Do not set a check interval, don't even have it in the host definition.* Configure the parents directive for your hosts if you want to take advantage of the network outages logic to minimize notifications. Define one or more services on the host. If the host is pingable only, define a PING service for the host that pings it. Set a normal_check_interval, retry_check_interval and check_period that is sane for your environment. Nagios will check the service in parallel and will only perform a sequential host check when a service fails. Since services should rarely fail, host checks will be run rarely. Since the host check will run and exit quickly, there is minimal interruption of normal scheduling. If all your hosts are pingable only and you don't care about configuring parents then you don't need host checks at all and can set the check_period to none in the host definitions to completely eliminate them. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

That's probably because the normal_check_interval = 5 (minutes). If you want quicker checks, change normal_check_interval to a lower value. /L ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

First, you could define a bash/perl/c or any other language basis (embedded perl or c is suggested for speed issues - if you have a less notification frequency of 10 notifs in a minute) script. Then, certainly, you are passing the mobile number as a parametre. So you could select a text inside that script. At last that script will be the trigger for SMS. So notification scipt will be your new bash (or other) script. Second, you could define "n" (which is the number of different texts) different SMS notification commands in (etc/misccommands in old versions, and etc/command.etc in nagios 2.x). But you have to say that, this person will be notified with this command for each. I hope it is a bit picturable. If you have questions, I can be more clear on this.

Let me explain this way: I will have just one host which is the Nagios server, other hosts will be deleted. Then, that host will be checked with active checks and of course any moment it will be UP. This host will have 300 services, actually which are "host_check_alive" for our other hosts. So if some services are DOWN, host check will return UP and only service notification escalation will be running. Nothing more. Therefore, no hosts will be checked with 10 secs delay, eventhough I have entered the check delay as 1 min. Does it sound good? Have any ideas?

That makes service checks stop. What do you expect? You're doing something that the documentation specifically says not to do because it leads to that behavior. I've been telling you that your methodology is busted and wrong. You need to change it if you want nagios to work right. > Some servers are out for 4-5 minutes because of some sophisticated :) > construction issues which we are unable to be aware of.

Re-read Determining Status and Reachability of Network Hosts. Everything I've said so far is well documented. Reading the documentation was the single best thing I did to understand how Nagios works and you will be well served by doing the same. If you do this you'll see that hosts are checked only when necessary and services are checked all the time, on your schedule. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

For example, my nagios.cfg is configured to have the archives rotated daily in /var/log/nagios2: log_rotation_method=d log_archive_path=/var/log/nagios2 The logrotate script is pretty straightforward: /var/log/nagios2/nagios.log { daily missingok rotate 10 compress delaycompress notifempty postrotate /etc/init.d/nagios2 reload endscript } However, the history.cgi is looking for log files in a different format. Here's the error I see from the web interface: Error: Cannot open log file '/var/log/nagios2/nagios-03-15-2007-00.log' for reading! I've scoured the configs looking for some filename convention settings, but haven't come up with anything fruitful. Can anyone point me to my (probably obvious) oversight? Thanks in advance...

If Debian is including a logrotate script for nagios then that should be treated as a bug and reported back to the maintainer. logrotate shouldn't be used on the nagios log files. Nagios handles the rotation of its own logs internally based on the log_rotation_method. Worst case you'd want to remove log files older than your longest desired reporting period or 2 years old, whichever is less.

What i have is a webpage written in asp that accepts a pager number and message, and what i would like is for nagios to send the page through that web gateway. I was originally thinking something simple, maybe curl (i.e. curl -d "PNumber=27175&PLine1=I am down, please fix me" ) but i have been having some difficulty getting this to work properly.

Hi, Yes, you're right. Sun is shipping a version of net-snmp (based on net-snmp 5.0.9) and named SMA[1] (SNMP Management Agent) with Solaris 10. You've always the old agent, SEA[2] (Solstice Entreprise Agent), shipped. Under SunFire and Netra servers, you've also another net-snmp based agent (again based on net-snmp 5.0.9) that implement SUN-PLATFORM-MIB and ENTITY-MIB and named MASF[3] (Management Agent for SunFire and netra).

Now it depends on what version of the JDK you are running as to what you need to do. JDK 5 and above include the JMX libraries so you will simply need to update your classpath variable so that it includes the JMXServiceURL class. If you're not sure how to update your classpath or how it effects your java settings, take a look at this: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/tooldocs/win32/classpath.html If you have JDK < 1.5, you will need to download a JMX implementation. There are lots around so you do have a choice as to what you use, but the Sun reference implementation is available here: http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/core/mntr-mgmt/javamanagement/download.jsp Rob -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I think the options you use are not valid. Also using the restart option may result in issues with duplicate processes and such. Stopping and starting services is a admin job so needs to be done as root or user with equivalent rights. For small config changes I use: service nagios reload For bigger issues I check Nagios configs at least twice and then do: service nagios stop sleep 10 service nagios start To get yourself into trouble use: service nagios restart. Untill someone puts a sleep command in the nagios service file. Hugo. -- hvdkooij at vanderkooij.org http://hugo.vanderkooij.org/ This message is using 100% recycled electrons.

This is because you should be sure that Nagios runs the command exactly as yours. There can be some exceptions (bugs, some missed escape chars, ...). Thus, see the difference. First of all, let it write into a file. For instance, change the command like, echo '/usr/bin/printf "%b" "Svc:$SERVICEDESC$ ++Host:$HOSTALIAS$ ++ Addr:$HOSTADDRESS$ ++ State:$SERVICESTATE$ ++Date:$SHORTDATETIME$" | /usr/local/bin/gammu --sendsms TEXT $CONTACTPAGER$' >> /tmp/someTempFile After you're sure a notification is done, open that temporary file and get a random line (first, last or any) then try to execute it.

I had some problems (not quite the same as yours though) after upgrading the plugins for Nagios until I remembered that for check_nt I had been using the version of check_nt from http://www.shatterit.com/nc_net/ . I had forgotten that by reinstalling the default plugins it would overwrite the shatterit version. I don't know if that will help you in your situation, but thought it worth mentioning anyway.

No, these two plugins only check for sanity on the ports and do not actually send/receive email. The way we do it here is to check all sorts of things. First, we use check_imap/check_smtp/etc to check that the ports are listening correctly. Then, we have checks for mail queue lengths on the mail servers (make sure they aren't too large as this indicates something is constipated...) Finally, I have a 5-min cronjob that injects an email into the mail system, addressed to a pseudouser on the Nagios host. This pseudouser is in fact a program which parses the email, identifies how long it took to arrive, and submits a passive service check into nagios with a status based on the delivery time. A service freshness check will set the service status to critical if no email is received for 30 mins (the critical threshold for mail delivery here). This is most likely the sort of thing you're after. The check_mail_loop plugin does similar to this but for people with a single POP mailbox - our system is bigger and so this was not appropriate for us. You sould make sure you are injecting your email into the system at a suitable place so that it does not bypass the majority of the normal mail flow, though.

The error you're getting means that NLG cannot find (or read) all of the files it needs to determine that Nagios is running, and for it to read it's status information from. The files it looks for are: - comments.dat - downtime.dat (not currently used but it still checks it anyway) - objects.cache - status.dat It looks for them by default in /usr/local/nagios/var. Someone on the list has noticed before that their "status.dat" file was actually "status.log", in which case symlinking status.dat to status.log did the trick. Please check these files exist and are readable by your webserver user. If you believe they're all intact, please reply back with the following: - the output of "ls -l /usr/local/nagios/var" (change the path to Nagios' var directory if different) - the result of "head /usr/local/nagios/var/status.dat" (run as your webserver user, change the path to Nagios' var directory if different) - the value of the ServerNagiosFiles and ServerNagiosFeed settings from your "nlg/server/s3_client.inc.php" config file Regards, Andy.

Any information on how I can enable more verbose logging to see just where the problem is? I've been checking permissions all over and everything seems correct. Thanks in advance... -- Mike I JUST installed this on an exact system setup that you described, and had similar trouble until I changed two things ... In the /usr/share/nagios/server/sync-files/s3_config.inc.php change the 'ServerNagiosFeed' path to Nagios' var directory to /var/log/nagios/ that should allow NLG to see the appropriate files. That's really the only change I would suggest, other than that and perms on the /index/ directory should be apache:apache or whatever UID/GID you have your webserver running as.

The pipe in the output of the plugin is the delimeter for the plugin output and the plugin perfdata. This is a normal feature of most Nagios plugins. The problem is that Nagios cannot execute the plugin, so I would guess that you have a configuration error somewhere or a permissions issue. The command definition you posted earlier seems ok, but can you post an example service definition. What does ls -l in the $USER1$ macro directory show?

First, you can attach notes to a host or service that appear when you click on the host or service. It's nice for quick notes, but doesn't offer much in the way of organization. Second, using host or service extended info feature, you can include an icon and link that appears in the status screens. Clicking the icon will take you to the URL of your choice, which can of course contain whatever you need. I maintain a "website" for each host which is populated with any relevant info for that particular host. Andrew ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

With the external command file there are numerous commands that you can submit into Nagios from external sources (hence the name). You could simply put together a small shell script that submits the command to enable downtime on a host at the beginning of your scheduled downtime, and then when everything is finished have cron submit another command to re-enabled the host/service. For a full list of the commands that you can submit visit this page: http://www.nagios.org/developerinfo/externalcommands/commandlist.php I think the one most pertinent to what you are trying to achieve would be SCHEDULE_SVC_DOWNTIME or maybe SCHEDULE_HOST_SVC_DOWNTIME. cheers Rob -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I needed to check a web page for today's date in the format YYYYMMDD - tried passing $(date -d "today" +%Y%m%d) to check_http using the -s switch, but Nagios kept eating some portion of the date output. I then set the $USER$31 resource macro to $(date -d "today" +%Y%m%d) then passed the $USER31$ macro to check_http -s $USER31$ Bingo ! The date command formats today's date correctly and then passes it to check_http. Another victory for the flexibility of Nagios. Oh, you can do stuff like $(date -d "-1 day" +%Y%m%d) too. I am curious as to what else could be achieved with resource macros (especially shell arithmetic). Anyone got examples of resource macro usage ?

There are various scripts and utilities you can try at http://www.nagiosexchange.org in Categories / Add on Projects / Downtimes. The one I use is the PHP one by aaronsegura; it has a really friendly syntax for specifying begin and end date/times. hth, Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

So it sounds like as long as I'm not obnoxious about my processes, I am cool. I will be monitoring under 100 hosts (ping and possibly one to three services, such as SMTP, HTTP, FTP, etc). In a couple of cases, I'll be checking a URL or logging in a database. As long as I keep it to 1x for every 5 minutes, I should be ok, right? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Dreamhost just wrote me back and told me that they don't allow any persistent processes. Having seen SpamAssassin and ClamAV "make install" tutorials (from your shell login), I thought that this sort of thing would be ok. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Without the retention tweak, I was seeing nagios run for 15 minutes without updating its status.log and that is too long of an outage for me to live with.

And new configuration did well which made me check each server (as a ping service for each) with 1 minute delays. I have any other problem at the moment.

That is the latest version and includes, amongst others, the fix in the config file as you mentioned. These errors appear at first glance to be typically permissions, particularly with the client accessing s3_download.php. A typical test would be to enable debugging in server/s3_config.inc.php, then try and access: http://yourserver/nagios/share/server/s3_download.php?filename=s3_config.inc.php&action=check If you get an MD5 hash back, then the server side is working OK, and it's a problem with the client script connecting to s3_download.php (perhaps invalid username/password for HTTP authentication, no username/password supplied when required, invalid URL etc.) If not, it's a web server configuration error (or invalid/denied URL.) One thing I have just noticed while writing this, your client script is at http://myservername/nagios/client, yet your server is trying to connect to http://myservername/nagios/share/server (should the "share" directory really be there?) If your "server" directory is at the same level as "client" in the file-system, then it looks like your server feed URL should be http://myservername/nagios/server.

Hi, I don't known any plugin but, according to "Sun Storedge 3310 SCSI Array Release Notes"[1], RAID controller firmware version 4.15 has enhanced SNMP protocol. According to "Sun StorEdge 3000 Family RAID Firmware 4.15 User's Guide"[2], you can configure the Notification Processing Center (NPC)[3] via the RAID firmware to use SNMPv1 or SNMPv2c protocols for GET and SET messages and SNMPv1 for TRAP messages. You have to wrote a specific plugin for SNMP GET messages or you can use configure snmptrapd and snmptt to translate SNMP TRAP messages to Nagios external commands.

The documentations found at: http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/redundancy.html has a very good explanation on to set it up and how it works. However, it is not clear for the scenario of: Assume master nagios server goes down and remains down for 12 hours. Now the slave will take over. If after 12 hours, master comes back online. Master takes control. Does master now have historical data when it was down for 12 hours? If not, how do we get it to master? We have a requirement of master needing to have all data.

Andy Shellam 21/03/2007 19:46 Please respond to andy.shellam-lists at mailnetwork.co.uk To joe.stringfellow at liverpool.com cc nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net Subject Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios Looking Glass problem Hi Joe, Have you tried NLG 1.0.3? That is the latest version and includes, amongst others, the fix in the config file as you mentioned. These errors appear at first glance to be typically permissions, particularly with the client accessing s3_download.php. A typical test would be to enable debugging in server/s3_config.inc.php, then try and access: http://yourserver/nagios/share/server/s3_download.php?filename=s3_config.inc.php&action=check If you get an MD5 hash back, then the server side is working OK, and it's a problem with the client script connecting to s3_download.php (perhaps invalid username/password for HTTP authentication, no username/password supplied when required, invalid URL etc.) If not, it's a web server configuration error (or invalid/denied URL.) One thing I have just noticed while writing this, your client script is at http://myservername/nagios/client, yet your server is trying to connect to http://myservername/nagios/share/server (should the "share" directory really be there?) If your "server" directory is at the same level as "client" in the file-system, then it looks like your server feed URL should be http://myservername/nagios/server.

I have been setting up various hosts and have noticed that when you restart Nagios, some of the hosts being monitored do not retain their UP duration (if they were in an UP state at the point of restart). The UP duration is reset to 0d 0h 0m 0s and starts counting up from there. I investigated further and have noticed that all affected hosts have a + symbol tagged on to the end of the duration, .e.g. 0d 1h 8m 41s+. I've also noticed that if any one of these hosts enters a down state and/or recovers while Nagios is running, the + disappears from the end of the duration and the correct state duration is maintained over restarts from that point on. I have read through this list and the documentation and can't find a mention of what a + means and why the duration is being reset over restarts. Any information to explain/correct this behaviour would be appreciated. regards, Aidan ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

NC_NEt is an excelent substitute, since it can be installed and requires no additional configuration except for disabling NSClient and accepting it in the windows firewall (which would be standard for any substitute) (additional configuration is required if using custom port or password.) A new version of this will be availible in about a week, but the current one should meet your needs at least for testing until the new version is out. http://sourceforge.net/projects/nc-net NSclinet++ is also a good substitute, I am not sure of the configuration requirements but I believe the Nagion Configuration would remain mostly unchanged. (For more details of this, see the current Nagios Documentation under Windows monitoring) Tony (Author of NC_NEt) On 3/22/07, Marco Borsani wrote: > > Hi all > > > > NsClient agent hangs sometime on server Windows 2000/2003 server. > > > > How can I debug this kind of problem? > > > > Regards > > > > Marco Borsani > Technical Operation > > tel.: +390104310115 > e-fax: +390683175950 > * m.borsani at it.net > > ITnet S.r.l. > Direzione e Coordinamento di Wind Telecomunicazioni S.p.A. > Via Pacinotti, 39 > 16151 - Genova > > > In ottemperanza al D. lgs 196/03 in materia di protezione dei dati > personali, le informazioni contenute in questo messaggio sono strettamente > riservate e sono esclusivamente indirizzate al destinatario indicato (oppure > alla persona responsabile di rimetterlo al destinatario).

I've installed NRPE 2.7.1 on a Fedora Core 6 machine, and no matter what I try, it doesn't like the command_prefix setting. Here is my config: ... ### Daemon Options pid_file=/var/run/nrpe.pid server_port=5666 #server_address=192.168.1.1 nrpe_user=nagios nrpe_group=localservice #allowed_hosts=127.0.0.1,82.165.38.62 dont_blame_nrpe=0 #command_prefix=/usr/bin/sudo debug=1 command_timeout=60 connection_timeout=300 #allow_weak_random_seed=1 ### Commands configuration ... with all the commands listed afterwards (check_dns, check_procs etc.) Notice how command_prefix is commented out. This works: # ./check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1 -c check_dns DNS OK: 0.062 seconds response time. portland-1.andyshellam.eu returns 89.200.137.203|time=0.062236s;;;0.000000 If I uncomment command_prefix and kill/restart NRPE: # ./check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1 -c check_dns NRPE: Unable to read output If I login as the Nagios user ("nagios") which is whom NRPE runs under, and try the command I believe NRPE is trying to run: $ /usr/bin/sudo /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_dns -H portland-1.andyshellam.eu -a 89.200.137.203 DNS OK: 0.005 seconds response time. portland-1.andyshellam.eu returns 89.200.137.203|time=0.004811s;;;0.000000 Any ideas, anyone? I've tried with and without SSL - makes no difference, enabled debugging but don't get anything helpful in syslog. I have some plugins that need root privelege so need this working.

Event handler commands can be passed $ARGx$ variables in the exact same way as service check commands. define service { ... check_command check_blah!somearg1!somearg2!somearg3 event_handler fix_blah!somearg1!somearg2!somearg3 } In the same way that the check_command command definition has to pass $ARGx$ to the script, you need to do the same for the event_handler command{} definition.

Otherwise, I don't have anything sensible in my mind about this. Could you check (if possible pass to Nagios user and try to execute) /usr/bin/printf /usr/local/bin/gammu can be readable and executable by Nagios user? you can simply add # chmod +x /usr/bin/printf # chmod +x /usr/local/bin/gammu however, one more problem can occur. gammu also could be able to read its resources as nagios user. Anyway, let's try to execute the command as Nagios user. Waiting for your reply...

The core functionality hasn't changed much, except for (hopefully) better error handling, expanded options, & more debugging output. changes: - switched to Getopt::Long - more nagios plugin-compliant (I actually read the guidelines) - bad usage & all non-zero snmpwalk exits now return UNKNOWN - CRITICAL is reserved for disk & controller failures - using an absolute path for the system call - better error handling (& better handling of unexpected snmp output) - improved debugging output - added SNMPv3 snmpwalk options - added an internal alarm - cleaned up & expanded help output a bit I wrote a version that used Net::SNMP, but it was noticeably slower due to the module loading - so I've just continued using a system call to net-snmp's snmpwalk.

NC_NEt v3 or higher installs with no issue on these hosts since they require Framework 2.0 NC_NEt before version 3 (2.X or 1.X) require Framework 1.1 but I do not recomend installing older verison of NC_NEt. I just updated NagiosExchange yesterday to reflect that the current verison is maintained on Sourceforge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/nc-net THe newest version of NC_NEt v4.x that is currently in testing should be done within a week. I can email a copy of this version to anyone that would like to try. request it by email me at nc_net at montitech.com Version 4 does a much better job at Event Log checks. and I am looking for feedback on this. Version 3.x that is currently downloadable from sourceforge should resolve your issue.

Change your host check_command to something that you reasonably believe represents the up/down status of the host. Check_tcp to port 23 if it accepts telnets would probably be sufficient. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

If you have an other server running on it, example of http server you can use the check_http command, and I think you should remove the check_host_alive from the host config. If your switch does not host any other services, take a look on the check_fping command it may work :) Riahi Taieb On Fri, 2007-03-23 at 22:11 +0100, Michael Johnston wrote: > Hi list > > I swear I've seen a way to do this this before but I just can't remember where and I can't seem to find it.

This seems awfully quick - personally I request 1000ms (1 second) to give it a fair amount of time to respond. If the host/router/whatever is busy, it could take slightly longer than 30ms to reply, causing a warning (or longer than 60ms to be 'down'.) Andy.

I added "> /dev/stdout 2>&1" to the end of a command in my nrpe.cfg, and got the following result when running check_nrpe off my Nagios server: "sudo: sorry, you must have a tty to run sudo." Looking at the /etc/sudoers file on the machine reveals a line "Defaults requiretty". Commenting this out sorted the problem. For some reason, on a stock FC4 install, the sudoers file was virtually empty, yet in FC6 it was full of various settings!

I am masters student in GWU. I am doing Nagios installation and configuration during my Unix project. I am having one problem, after installing it. I followed all the steps written in the documentation to install Nagios. But after restarting my web server when i just want to verify if that changes working or not or i want to see the Nagios web interface, i entered the following path in to my web browser http://localhost/nagios/ . It asked me for the user name and password for Nagios Access at http://localhost. i have not entered any password, i just created the user as written in the documentation. So please anyone can tell me what i should do to resolve this problem.

Nagios itself does not prompt for authentication. You must have configured your Apache server to do it. You'll need to complete that process. Take a look at your Apache configuration, and any files you have specified there that it should use for authentication. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

I want to check for a process with 3 args and the args can be in any order. I don't see how to do this as it takes a string after the -a switch this means that I have to have a predefined order for the args. Is there a way, short of writing my own bash script for this, to do it? Also, check_procs --help shows -a and --argument-array as the same thing but I am not sure how this array is supposed to be constructed as it says "STRING" after it. Does it take an array or does it take a string? If string then does it use the string like an array. I have already tried to switch the position of args in the string to see if it will make a difference and it does, the plugin does not find the process. -- Hari Sekhon ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

I wouldn't say it's similar to Nagvis at all, but Nexsm is also very well worth a look. http://nexsm.gridshield.net/Overview.html It can be a little tricky to install, but once working I think it's well worth the effort especially if you have quite a few nodes on your network.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <46082B29.4090207@groundworkopensource.com> Hi Din?er, Not quite sure I follow your logic, but it looks like you want to control what happens with Nagios host checks. Nagios will check the host if and when a service on that host enters a non-ok state. It then executes the plugin that you select as a host-alive check. If it comes back with a non-ok status on the first attempt, it will try again, up to the max number of attempts. If all attempts fail, it sets to host to state DOWN (or UNREACHABLE - see the parent directive). It then send a host alert, and notifications, if configured. If it comes back OK, it stops checking the host, and sets it to OK. Then you will get a service alert, notifications, etc. So, one way to be sure that you always ping 5 times when you are checking a host is to configure the plugin you use for the host-alive check to send 5 pings on each attempt: $USER1$/check_icmp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w 3000.0,80% -c 5000.0,100% -n 5 for example. You could also use a passive check to set the host state. This is a pretty advanced topic, but will give you great control over host checks. One thing to consider is that Nagios 2.x and 1.x use a "blocking" host check. That is, whenever a host check is performed (actively), Nagios stops doing pretty much everything else. Thus it makes sense to optimize your active host checks. The longer they take, the larger the affect on overall latency. This will be fixed in v3, or so I have read. I have not tried v3 yet :) Thomas Din?er Kavraal wrote: > Hi, (as to be numbers are only sample) > We know that host assumed to be DOWN if host does not reply (or > timeout) for 5 times successively (I mean 5 distinct checks in order). > Do you know how to make nagios assume that host is UP only and only if > host says OK to ping check for 5 times successively after a HARD-DOWN > status? > > > > > 2007/3/25, Andy Shellam >: > > Also, in your check_ping command definition, you're requesting the > host > respond within 30ms to be classed as up and OK. > > This seems awfully quick - personally I request 1000ms (1 second) to > give it a fair amount of time to respond.

I want to use a easy to use administration tool to do the configurations. I currently using Monarch, it does the job verry good. But I have searched the nagios exchange website and there are some other programs that also will do the job (fruity, NagiosQL 2005, NagiosWeb). I was wondering what kind of front end you guys use, and what your experience are with these tools. Another quistion I have I with failover servers. I use a failover server that is actively checking all the hosts that my nagios server is checking, the only diffrence is that I will only enable notification when the first nagios fails. This setup work perfectly, the only issue that I have is that I will have to do all the configuration twice. Is there some kind of tool that I can use to sync the configuration to a secondary server?

I've got nagios v2.6 with plugins v1.4.6 The check definition is: define command{ command_name check_service_cluster command_line $USER1$/check_cluster2 -s -l $ARG1$ -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$ -d $arg4$ } The service definition is: define service{ ... check_command check_service_cluster!"DNS Cluster"!1!2!$SERVICESTATEID:host1:Service$,$SERVICESTATEID:host2:Servic e$,etc ... } The problem is as follows, no matter how many of the services are critical, the check keeps reporting everything ok. When I run it from the commandline, I also get everything ok. When I replace the $SERVICESTATEID:host1:service$ with eg. 1,0,0,2 It reports correctly 1 warning, 1 critical, 2 ok. So the error lies in the definition of the host/service state. According to the documentation this should be: $SERVICESTATEID::$ Any suggestions what's going wrong?

In-Reply-To: <46082B29.4090207@groundworkopensource.com> References: <46082B29.4090207@groundworkopensource.com> Message-ID: Thanks Thomas, actually I was very much trying to do at least 5-checks before changing DOWN status of an host. But this was a problem of "blocking" strategy of Nagios v1 and v2. Thus, I am waiting for v3. In fact it is in alpha stage at the moment. I can't trust it -as you can guess why- before even a few beta stages. I will be looking for a way to prevent "blocking" host check strategy. Before this, I tried to close active checks of hosts and prevent any host checks. Any host had only one service which was host check (as a service). So those could be parallelised, and I did. But it borns a problem. UNREACHABLE status does not exist for me anymore. After that, I tried to configure service depedency. However, then, only notifications were disabled of child services. But I was expecting an UNREACHABLE status for those. Shortly - Summary I am asking for a way to set UNREACHABLE status for child services under service dependency.

The problem would appear to be with the on-demand macro you're using in your check_command. I don't use check_cluster2 but a quick glance at the documentation for it and on-demand macros leads me to believe that you are using an incorrect form of the on-demand macro in the check_command. If the service check_command above is accurate, is the service_description for the service you're trying to check on all machines really named 'Service'? Same for host_name. Are they really host1 and host2. I can't imagine any reason that you would need to obfuscate those and it's possibly confusing. I might help if you post a host, service and service description as unedited as possible. It might also help you to diagnose what nagios is really doing by seeing what nagios would be running. define command{ command_name check_service_cluster command_line echo '$USER1$/check_cluster2 -s -l $ARG1$ -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$ -d $arg4$' } After a check attempt you'll see the full command as nagios would have run it on the command line in the GUI. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

I'm setting up a new instance (2.8) on RHEL4; I set SELinux to "Warn" at install time, so that we don't get confused trying to figure out why things aren't working (we haven't had much need for SE before, but are starting to look at it now). On a somewhat-related note, if anyone is installing RHEL4 into a VM under VMware ESX 2.5, you've likely encountered the issue where the guest OS clock lags behind real time, even with ntp and VM guest clock sync set up. The fix, as I've discovered, is to update ESX to v2.5.4 build 36502 (three patch bundles from a stock 2.5.0 install). Apparently the issue doesn't affect ESX 3.0+, but we haven't tested - waiting for FY08 to start so we can start spending the budget and upgrade. :-) Just thought I'd share...

Another way would be to use a tool like Monarch or NagioSQL to store the hostnames and IPs in a MySQL DB. Then the script could use the DB interface to do the lookups. That would be faster, and if you are willing or able to allow the host that does the posting to access MySQL across the net, it could run on a remote system. Kind of depends on how you are running Nagios - with nsca/nscafe or not, and where the passive results are generated. I don't know if the Nagios event broker can give you this data directly, but if you use NDOUtils or GroundWork Foundation then these databases backends also store the IP and hostname.

If you go into the hostgroup overview, and click on the short name of the hostgroup (the one in parentheses), you'll see an option to schedule downtime or disable notifications for all hosts and/or services in the group. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

Once you start wrapping your brain around it, it gets easier, although I'm sure we've only scratched the surface at my shop. My biggest complaint about the SELinux implementation in RHEL4 is just that the selinux-policy-targeted-sources RPM isn't included in the standard rollout, and that can lead to a lot of head-scratching. ("I know I want to change these policies, but can't figure out what to change...") So, I don't know if some of these items have been discussed on this list already, but here are some of our generic "Nagios-on-CentOS4-with-SELinux-enabled" notes. I also disclaim any liability for these changes having unintended consequences in your security context (which I don't know anything about), so "Caveat lector". Also, note that some aspects of these two issues may have been corrected by the packagers (our Nagios installs on CentOS4/RHEL4 come from Dag Wieers' package repositories): 1) Enabling the Web Interface Using the nagios packages from Dag Wieers, there are a couple of tasks that need to be completed in order to make the nagios web interface function: * if it is not already installed, the selinux-policy-targeted-sources RPM must be installed in order to allow editing of Selinux policy. * edit the /etc/selinux/targeted/src/policy/policy.conf file and jump to the section marked "line 172".

This is the logic that allows you to suppress notification for hosts being down "downstream" of a router that fails. The most common problem I have seen with this is that the host notify options are actually set to tell you when the host is Unreachable. Take the "U" out of the host notifiy options, and you should not see this happen any more. If, however, the hosts are set to status DOWN, then something else is going on. You may be overloading Nagios, or some other inhibitor is affecting it's ability to set the dependent hosts Unreachable.

We're predominately a Windows shop and the majority of our system admins has no *nix experience at all, so I was looking for a way to get them to play nice together without modifying the policy source. What I ended up doing after beating my head against a wall for a few days is run the following commands (explanation following each command - locations assume nagios is installed from the Dag Wieers RPMs): chcon -R -t httpd_sys_script_exec_t /usr/lib/nagios/cgi (allow apache to execute the CGIs) chcon -Rh -t httpd_sys_script_ro_t /var/log/nagios (allow apache to read the nagios logs) chcon -Rh -t httpd_sys_script_rw_t /var/log/nagios/rw (allow apache to write to the external commands files) chcon -h -t httpd_sys_script_ro_t /var/log (allow apache to traverse /var/log so it can get to the nagios subdirectory) I am not overly familiar with SELinux myself, so I am sure that this opens up additional security holes, but in my company's environment, heavy modifications would not be understood or maintained. I'm especially not happy with the last command, but httpd_sys_script_ro_t was the lowest built-in permission type I could give to the /var/log directory while still having the nagios web interface work. While it does not change the type on the contents of /var/log, any new files or folders will be created with the type httpd_sys_script_ro_t, so chcon -h -t httpd_sys_script_ro_t /var/log should only be run at the very end of the configuration process for the server. -----Original Message----- From: nagios-users-bounces at lists.sourceforge.net [mailto:nagios-users-bounces at lists.sourceforge.net] On Behalf Of Sam Hooker Sent: Tuesday, March 27, 2007 3:11 PM To: nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] RHEL4 selinux and nagios -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 SELinux is a beast, but I think it's a worthwhile thing to understand, so I applaud your desire to make it work for you. Once you start wrapping your brain around it, it gets easier, although I'm sure we've only scratched the surface at my shop. My biggest complaint about the SELinux implementation in RHEL4 is just that the selinux-policy-targeted-sources RPM isn't included in the standard rollout, and that can lead to a lot of head-scratching. ("I know I want to change these policies, but can't figure out what to change...") So, I don't know if some of these items have been discussed on this list already, but here are some of our generic "Nagios-on-CentOS4-with-SELinux-enabled" notes. I also disclaim any liability for these changes having unintended consequences in your security context (which I don't know anything about), so "Caveat lector". Also, note that some aspects of these two issues may have been corrected by the packagers (our Nagios installs on CentOS4/RHEL4 come from Dag Wieers' package repositories): 1) Enabling the Web Interface Using the nagios packages from Dag Wieers, there are a couple of tasks that need to be completed in order to make the nagios web interface function: * if it is not already installed, the selinux-policy-targeted-sources RPM must be installed in order to allow editing of Selinux policy. * edit the /etc/selinux/targeted/src/policy/policy.conf file and jump to the section marked "line 172". Add the following entries: #line 172 allow httpd_sys_script_t var_log_t:dir search; allow httpd_sys_script_t var_log_t:file { getattr read }; allow httpd_sys_script_t var_log_t:file read; allow httpd_sys_script_t var_log_t:fifo_file getattr; allow httpd_sys_script_t var_log_t:fifo_file { getattr write }; * change the context of the /usr/lib/nagios/cgi directory to "system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_script_exec_t" chcon -R system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_script_exec_t /usr/lib/nagios/cgi 2) Nagios Hangs When Launched By Init (Most of this answer was found at http://article.gmane.org/gmane.network.nagios.user/34668, but successful implementation required some of our own research.)

If you don't want to change it (and you probably shouldn't) you may want to consider making this a passive check, which generally makes more sense for checks that are going to take a long time to complete. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

Standard plugins mostly support a -t switch to specify the timeout for the plugin. The nagios.cfg service check timeout is a catch-all for those that don't terminate themselves when they should. Ideally, each command definition would have a specific timeout for each plugin defined with -t and the nagios.cfg timeout would be the max possible value of your timeouts. In that scenario individual plugins would have unique timeout values and your max would catch any runaways. You could go further with that and actually pass the timeout value as a $ARGx$ macro to the command from your service definition allowing you very specific granularity in your timeout control. Since the duration of the run-time for your check is so long, I agree that it probably makes more sense to either run it out of cron and have it submit a passive check result or have it update a file that you then parse as an active check in nagios. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

I'm running CentOS 4.4 with Apache 2 and PHP 5. My Nagios version is 2.8 and I'm trying to use Nagvis 0.9. Could anyone using NagVis please shed some light on this for me. A how-to link or some specific instructions would be great. I don't read or speak German, so most of the Nagios community sites and message boards aren't much help to me. For the record, my Nagios install and the NDOUtils install are both working fine. Thanks Rob -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

What that should do is output any info and errors returned from the command to debug.log in /tmp. I'm guessing it's going to be something like an environment variable that isn't set when Nagios is running, but is when cron (or yourself) runs it. Possibly $PATH? Anyway try the above, and let us know what you get. Failing that post your /etc/init.d/mysql script and /tmp/debug.log (as attachments) and we can investigate what variables that script needs set.

You're a genius. Thank you. Killing the old nagios and starting a new one fresh did the job.

Thanks, I check my sudoers file and there's no "defaults requiretty" line but I've try it and the result is : Mar 27 19:21:01 localhost sudo: nagios : sorry, you must have a tty to run sudo ; TTY=unknown ; PWD=/var/log/nagios ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/etc/init.d/mysql restart and if I change the line in "defaults ! requiretty" or if I remove it the result is the same : Mar 27 19:23:01 localhost sudo: nagios : TTY=unknown ; PWD=/var/log/nagios ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/etc/init.d/mysql restart But mysql don't restart.

Thanks for that. The plugin in question (check_rootkit) is a simple shell without any timeout option. I'm going for the passive check solution.

What features would you add? What features would you > change? What logic would you change, etc? I'd like to see a separation of "contact" with a "contactprofile". The idea is that a contact holds the general info about the contact: name, email address, phone number, etc (looking like LDAP, isn't it?) Then the contactprofile defines which contactgroups are notified on. You can add your required means of notification here. So you would define like this: define contactprofile { contact_name contact_name contactgroups contactgroup_names host_notification_options [d,u,r,f,n] service_notification_options [w,u,c,r,f,n] host_notification_commands command service_notification_commands command } One contact can have multiple contactprofiles. A side effect is that you can have a contactprofile for warnings that go to emails, while another contactprofile is for criticals to alert to your mobile phone. There probably needs to be an order to the contactprofiles so that a notification alert only alerts through at most 1 contactprofile. We talk a bit about this at http://altinity.blogs.com/dotorg/2006/06/ lessons_in_noti.html. But we haven't the time to add this yet....

I did find that it is faster than check_ping, and that the old check_ping had a problem with some of the icmp response codes that check_icmp did not have. The speed issue is especially important if you are trying to optimize blocking host checks. This definition works for host checks: define command { command_name check-host-alive command_line $USER1$/check_icmp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w 3000.0,80% -c 5000.0,100% -n 1 } for a service check, I use basically the same thing: define command { command_name check-icmp command_line $USER1$/check_icmp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w 3000.0,80% -c 5000.0,100% -n 5 } Check ping is almost the same: define command { command_name check_ping command_line $USER1$/check_ping -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$ -p 5 } Note the -p for number of pings changes to -n in check_icmp.

In short; however you configure it ;-) In essence there are 3 ways 1) nagios server runs checks on a client, such as is this port open and listening, can the server be pinged, etc 2) nagios server runs a check on the client and obtains result, such as via SNMP, or via a daemon running on the client that listens for nagios requests (NRPE). A large number of check are available already (http://nagiosplug.sf.net and http://www.nagiosexchange.org) and it is easy enough to write them for yourself 3) the client runs the checks itself periodically and sends the result back to the server, which the server then processes (NSCA) The communications between server and client are again down to how you set up nagios (i.e. encrypted using ssl for NRPE/NSCA or just use ssh when doing your own scripts). Nagios can begin as a simple setup but can also cope with hideously complex situations (distributed setup, parent/child relations ships, too many to list...).

After some struggle I manage to integrate nagiosgraph and configured one of the service to generate graph. The problem that I am seeing is that the icons and their associated links are interchanged. e.g. I have 3 icons for Root partition service. ICON | mouser over tip | Link Passive | Active service checks are | nagios/cgi-bin/extinfo.cgi?type=2&host=rcdut10&service=Root+Partition disabled..... Extra service | View Extra service notes | /nagiosgraph/show.cgi?host=rcdut10&service=Root+Partition Graph | View Graph | nagios/cgi-bin/extinfo.cgi?type=2&host=rcdut10&service=Root+Partition If you notice the link for Extra service icon is pointing to nagiosgraph where as it should point to nagios extinfo.cgi. As an side note I am using fruity to generate the configuration files, and they seem to be OK on cursory look. Any ideas?

Unfortunately some of our on-call engineers work from home, and live some miles apart so it's not that easy. In fact what I do now is use a commercial email-sms gateway service and have set up a contact group there which contains the mobile number of the on-call engineer.

If the firewall solution shares a logical IP address as part of its failover strategy, then I would simply have Nagios monitor that IP address and wouldn't be too concerned about the physical IP addresses that actually map to the hosts on which the firewall can run. As long as the logical address is shown to be the parent of any child services, then the layout in the status map should be fine. If you wanted to include the physical IP addresses of the firewalls, then I guess you could define a host group that contains only both the physical addresses and then the logical address. Defining only the logical address as the parent of any other hosts should hopefully sort out the display issues but I'm not too sure on this.

For example, heavy processor wait on disk IO could cause high load without actually consuming CPU usage, amongst other things. Am I incorrect? If I can rely on check_load to return .50 in a 5 minute average if 50% of the cpu is used for five minute straight this should work for me needs. My gut feeling tells me it never quite works this way. Additionally, can't a momentary amount of high load (greater than 1.0 or 100% cpu) cause a number above 1/100% to be averaged in and cause these measurements to be off? Although it could be nice to monitor cpus individually in a multi-cpu system for hung processes, etc, I can live without this if check_load works nicely. Thanks!

For example if you have two processes running constantly (ex. number-crunching applications) you load average will be always 2 (or higher if there's other programs running). Since the run queue does not have a upper limit like the CPU usage percent, the meaning is slightly different. For example on a quad processor system that runs many process the load can climb pretty high without the CPU being fully utilized because at some times you might have 200 processes on the run queue, and at other times there will be none, so the average will be high. The average CPU usage, on the other hand, can't be higher that 100%. This means that when you approach the upper limit under normal load you know you're hitting the limit of your server, so this might be a much more precise indication that you need a faster server. About the check question, I don't know of any standalone check beside INTEGER SNMP OIDs: UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuUser.0 (.1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.9.0) UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuSystem.0 (.1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.10.0) UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuIdle.0 (.1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.11.0) However, these are not very precise and to better monitor the CPU usage I suggest to graph (using MRTG, Cacti and the like) the CPU usage from the Raw values (These are counters that have to be polled and then the average usage is calculated based on the time between pools). You can optionally write a check script that will then extract the 1-minute, 5-minute, etc. average from the RRD file using rrdtools. Cacti has a plugin for that if you don't know how to do it, though you won't have 1-minute pooling (even though Cacti has a 1-minute patch it requires much more modifications to have it work properly) Raw OIDs that can be pooled (there may be more or less depending on the system: UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuRawUser.0 (.1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.50.0) UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuRawNice.0 (.1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.51.0) UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuRawSystem.0 (.1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.52.0) UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuRawIdle.0 (.1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.53.0) UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuRawWait.0 (.1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.54.0) UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuRawKernel.0 (.1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.55.0) UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuRawInterrupt.0 (.1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.56.0) UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuRawSoftIRQ.0 (.1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.61.0) Thomas On 29/03/07 05:10 PM, ffwqe efwa wrote: > Andy, > > I was under the impression that load was more indicative on process-wait > for cpu cycles and general system performance than actual cpu usage. > For example, heavy processor wait on disk IO could cause high load > without actually consuming CPU usage, amongst other things.

Something like the CPU usage seen on my server here? http://arwen.waakhond.net/#Sensors I read the values with snmp and feed them to the rrdtools. They do the averaging for me.

In my experience, people always want email but not always sms. Forcing it to be a single notification only wouldn't be a good idea.

So the characteristics of the contactprofile define the filters for a particular event, the command defines the type of notification (email, sms, paging, rss) and the above rule stops you getting multiple emails/sms/pages/rss items for a single event.

Is there something that I have missed in the documentation that This should be a FAQ and actually I believe it's in there. Nagios is first and foremost a service monitoring application. Hosts are never checked unless a service on that host fails* therefore every host must have at least one service defined for it. http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/checkscheduling.html#host_checks I'd be surprised if you didn't find lots of discussion about this by searching for 'pending' in the archives. -- Marc * There are exceptions when walking up a parent tree to determine network outages. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

It seems to me that nagios's notification logic is serial in nature, much like the current host check logic. When there are large numbers of notifications (or potential notifications) to be sent out, we see check latencies skyrocket. It would be nice to see notifications performed in parallel if that's really what's going on. I am making the assumption that it's the notification logic because immediately after disabling notifications on a program-wide basis, check processing returns to normal. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

Message-ID: <38D6D515FC15924693F2640881AF4620D3C67E@corpexbe2.arcadis-us.com> It's been a while since I set Nagios up to notify anyone but myself. I now have a need to notify different users based on hostgroups. Back in the day, I think we could add a contact and/or contactgroup to a hostgroup definition, but it looks like this is no longer an option. What is the new easy 'template' way to say "Any device in XXX hostgroup should send notifications to XXX user"? Should I create several different generic host and service templates, each one using a different contactgroup? If so, I would still have to touch each one of my hosts/services to change the template that it uses. I'd rather not have to do all that. If this is in the docs or a FAQ, please feel free to point me in the right direction. Thank you, Garry W.

These are all separate functions, and are controlled separately. In my experience, all eventhandlers work fine if notifications are off globally. The config below has nothing to do with event handlers - it's talking about external commands. So... The answer to the question is yes...

SORT OF. What they have is a check e-mail loop plugin that sends with SMTP and checks with IMAP What i need is something that sends with SMTP and send with IMAPS there's someone on there that posted changes for IMAPS but i tried making the changes but it didn't seem to take correctly. Maybe i'm reading his changes incorrectly. Link is here http://www.nagiosexchange.org/Networking.53.0.html?&tx_netnagext_pi1[p_view]=372 If someone could help me out that'd be fantastic.

Message-ID: <26face530703311109p556d612bje259cc0b0d2f2fff@mail.gmail.com> I have ~25 computers worldwide, and want to run several test commands on them every x minutes (where x is configurable), report the results, and alert me when "bad things" happen. Is this what Nagios/OpenNMS is designed for? Specifics below, but are Nagios/OpenNMS designed for network testing or more general multi system status monitoring/reporting/alerting? More specifically: % Confirm each machine is up/pingable/reachable [obviously!] % nmap each machine to make sure correct ports (varies by machine) and no others are open % "Egress" testing: machines can/can't reach port 25/80/443/etc (my choice for each machine) on public machines like www.yahoo.com, smtp.yahoo.com, etc. % Config changes: not just hacking/cracking testing, but maybe I intentionally upgraded something, and accidentally broke email between two machines or broke Mailman auto-reply or something like that. % Not all tests all the time: some tests should run less frequently (reduce the load); ideally, some "silly" tests run "randomly" to check on things I'm 100% positive sure will work all the time (but really fail sometimes-- eg, loopback interface broken) % For machines running httpd, download several pages, diff to last copies of these pages, report "big" differences (I assume small diffs are changes, but big diffs may be hacking/defacing/config error/etc); for "status update" pages (like mrtg), pages *should* be changing frequently, otherwise something is wrong % For machines running sendmail, send a test email to one of the other machines running sendmail, which then confirms receipt; alert if not received. Also do other mail routing/delivery tests. % For machines running MySQL, run specific queries that are expected to return certain results (two basic types of queries: some that should NEVER return ANY results, others that should ALWAYS return AT LEAST ONE result) % For machines running popd/imapd, simulate login to confirm authentication is working (popd/imapd auth isn't always local for us) % For machines running bind/tinydns, DNS testing: responding w/ correct IP addresses, ACL control re who can lookup which hosts? (internal machines can look up yahoo.com, external machines can look up *.mycompany.com only) % For machines running other daemons, do daemon specific testing/verification % Backup testing: our backup server should have fairly recent copies of the files it's backing up from other machines % Replication testing: confirm that a config file/database/software version/etc is the same on two given machines % Monitor files in /etc (eg, passwd, shadow, crontab) for changes. % Ping the other 24 machines + alert me if ping fails or is very slow % Firewall rule testing: test which machines can reach which other machines on what ports and compare to known good list/table % Cross-report status of each machine to each other machine, even if nothing is wrong (so each machine knows how the other 24 are doing) % Run things like "df -k/df -ik", "ps -aux -www", "top -n -d 1 infinity", "netstat -a", "vmstat", "mailq -v", "uptime", etc, and find memory-hogging/CPU-intensive processes, non-daemon processes that have been running for a long time, processes running w/o proper subprocesses, non-listening daemon processes (like ntpd) not running, near-full disk partitions, DOS attacks, many sockets in FIN_WAIT_[12] state, overfull mail queues, recent reboots, etc. % Allow for special cases: run specific tests (eg, a Perl script) on only 1-2 of the 25 machines % Windows machines: ideally, run the equivalent of the commands above and also report failed scheduled tasks, near-full Exchange stores, and other Windows-specific issues % Ideally, a lot of the above tests should run "out of the box" or Nagios/OpenNMS could run some sort of "discovery" program (find out which machines are running httpd and grab a few pages linked off the home page + use those as the "test" pages from then on), and allow me to customize as necessary. Of course, I realize I'll have to config things like custom SQL queries. % Ideally, the testing should be "decentralized": any of the machines can test any of the others, and the results are stored in a distributed/mirrored way. However, the testing management is ideally "centralized" in the sense that I can control testing on all machines from a given machine. % Ideally, the results (good or bad) can be displayed in a web page so my customers can see that my machines are being tested regularly, and are up and running fine as of x minutes ago. % Ideally, the "something bad has happened" reporting can be configured-- it may be OK for "mailq -v" to be large for 10-15 minutes, but not for 30 minutes (for example). % Ideally, software-specific "regression" testing. EG, when I upgrade Mailman, sendmail, etc, Nagios/OpenNMS could run a set of tests to make sure I didn't break something horribly -- We're just a Bunch Of Regular Guys, a collective group that's trying to understand and assimilate technology. We feel that resistance to new ideas and technology is unwise and ultimately futile. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
