I am going to try Centreon (not sure if it has modules for editing Nagios files though). There is also Lilac (formerly fruity) which comes with an autodiscovery engine (actually running Nmap).There is EZNag (lots of stuff to make Nagios easy to manage already bundled together) and Opscfg or so. But until I actually see something better, it's NagiosQL for me - here is thanks to the development team and the support community. Regards.

Second - the nagios install comes with a complete set of documentation you can access via the wen interface . And for your question - the file containing the definitions you are looking for is called either commands.cfg or misccommnd.cfg , it resides in the etc directory of the nagios installation . most likely you'll find a command called check_http with no parameters , that is because it is going to the default ports , RTFM and made the modifications .

If there's nothing in the log for a particular day, it simply means it''s been pinging fine all day (or if it's been critical all day long). Nagios itself doesn't do anything with the performance data, but can be configured to pass it on to flat files, a database or to a graph for example PNP or nagiosgrapher. I use (and recommend) PNP as it's easy to install and use and seems to get better & better with every new release. http://www.pnp4nagios.org/pnp/start ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null From masoud.tabrizi at gmail.com Mon Mar 2 21:20:44 2009 From: masoud.tabrizi at gmail.com (Masoud Tabrizi) Date: Mon, 2 Mar 2009 15:20:44 -0500 Subject: Monitoring Logs under Windows 2003 server In-Reply-To: <6b13ab0f0903021209k530c114are98e175031dd794c@mail.gmail.com> References: <733AB7C81DB6459BAE8CF45FCE521BCD@EDI3MT> <6b13ab0f0903021209k530c114are98e175031dd794c@mail.gmail.com> Message-ID: <02A3F946013C44EB9B2B6CCAB8E86C45@EDI3MT> I looked that the event log but does no good for me as I am trying to monitor application logs and not events logs. looking for something similar to check_logfiles on Unix.

I have not yet heard of one availible specifically for nagios on a Windows Host. Assuming the Log Files are just TEXT your best bet is to write a program that parses through text logs using regular expessions. This can be done through VB Scripts. The tricky thing with VBS, or Dot Net is it handles RegExp slightly differently than compared to UNIX but there are a series of Settings one could use to get desired results from the Regexp. THe other tricky thing with Windows is making sure you file opening for Read Only , since opening them with RW access may cause their corrosponding apps to fail getting the file handles to its own log file. The last thing to consider is the order of the file, If the Log file always appends to the end then try to itterate through the file from the end moving twords the begining untill you hit your stopping point, This way you can exit the loop early.

It is a fairly small piece of software written in C++ (the original version was written in VBS) and have yet to see it crash or cause any problems. The main value of the client - aside from my own innovation of using HTTPS to submit the passive check results - is that it packages quite a few third-party plugins, including NSClient++, and their configurations into a single installer package. What isn't stable about it is the exact specification, behavior and which plugins get packaged and how they are configured; I expect that there will be ongoing changes. The interface between the TNTMonitoring client and Nagios should be fairly stable - it is simply the standard NSCA protocol, but running over HTTPS PUT requests. On the receiving end, a simple PHP script accepts the results and puts it to the Nagios command file. The source code for TNTMonitoring contains an older version of that script; I should really be updating that. Also the documentation is really somewhat insufficient. The current installer will ask a number of questions before installing everything. One of the improvements I'm working on is to come up with a "quiet" version that simply installs without asking any questions - basically, what you've been asking for.

I have a strange problem. I don?t get > any notifications > > When hosts went down but notifications is working OK for services. > > Any hint ?? There are various options in the host definition which determine whether Nagios will send a notification for a host. For example max_check_attempts, check_interval, retry_interval, contact_groups, first_notification_delay, notification_period, notification_options and notifications_enabled. You can read all about them in the documentation at: http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/objectdefinitions.html#host It's possible too that you might have disabled notifications for the host. Check the host in the web front-end to make sure. In the host detail screen it should say (amongst other things) "Notifications: ENABLED". Also note that host and service notification options are specified separately in the contact definition. For example, the template I use for contacts looks like this: define contact{ name generic-contact service_notification_period 24x7 host_notification_period 24x7 service_notification_options w,c,r host_notification_options d,r service_notification_commands notify-service-by-email host_notification_commands notify-host-by-email register 0 } The host notification command is usually different to the service notification command. Check your command definitions and make sure there isn't some problem with your host notification command. hth, Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null From martyn at chetnet.co.uk Tue Mar 3 15:02:12 2009 From: martyn at chetnet.co.uk (Martyn) Date: Tue, 3 Mar 2009 14:02:12 -0000 Subject: NRPE only_from Message-ID: Hi all, I want to test connectivity from the outside world to my Linux box inside my network, I'm wanting to test before I try and monitor an external box. On the inside of my network I have a Linux box on 192.168.3.245 running NRPE and my Nagios Server on 192.168.3.247 Both of these are connected to a 3560 Cisco Switch which in turn is connected to my Linksys Router then onto my Cable modem. On my Linux box I have in my nrpe "only_from = 192.168.3.247 which allows Nagios to gather its stats, however if I change it to the public IP address that is given I get the following errors "Check_NRPE: Error Could not complete SSL handshake". In my .cfg file on my Nagios server (the cfg of the box I want to monitor) I have pointed it to my public IP address and restarted Nagios. On my Linksys Router I'm port forwarding to the Linux box port 5666 but it makes no difference, I have even put my Linux box in the DMZ but still no joy. Does anybody know how I can test my Linux box so it looks like its from the external network, failing that does anybody have a test box I can try and monitor for 10 minutes or so. Also, NRPE the line only_from, am I allowed to put the domain name or is it just IP address only. Thanks Martyn -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The requests do not originate from that device. It may pass them, but it does not originate them.

The key is that the requests must come in from the WAN interface for the port forwarding to work. If you're testing the port forwarding from your nagios machine (on private IP), the Linksys box isn't going to use the Forward rule for that connection. > Does anybody know how I can test my Linux box so it looks like its > from the external network, failing that does anybody have a test box > I can try and monitor for 10 minutes or so. > Test from a machine that is off your network, on the public Internet; a friends computer or one at work.

Some options that come to mind -- 1) Create a contact per status. contact1 that sends e-mails only does so for critical services; contact2 that sends pages only does so for warning services. 2) Have one contact but multiple notification commands (service_notification_commands service-notify-by-email,service-notify- by-pager). -by-email and -by-pager contain simple logic to only work for critical or warning respectively. 3) Create one contact with one notification command. That notification command contains the simple logic to send an e-mail or send a page depending on the notification type. 4) ... 5) Profit! This kind of configuration is discussed somewhat frequently on the list. The archives might provide more information. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null From martyn at chetnet.co.uk Tue Mar 3 23:57:39 2009 From: martyn at chetnet.co.uk (Martyn) Date: Tue, 3 Mar 2009 22:57:39 -0000 Subject: Email to Voice Message-ID: Although I'm new and still setting up how I want to monitor my Servers and Routers, it got me thinking about texts that I receive whilst I'm in bed, I'm so used to getting a text statement from my bank that I now sleep through them, so text alerts are not sufficient enough for me to lift my head of my pillow if there was a fault.

It is a fairly small piece of software written in C++ (the original version was written in VBS) and have yet to see it crash or cause any problems. The main value of the client - aside from my own innovation of using HTTPS to submit the passive check results - is that it packages quite a few third-party plugins, including NSClient++, and their configurations into a single installer package. What isn't stable about it is the exact specification, behavior and which plugins get packaged and how they are configured; I expect that there will be ongoing changes. The interface between the TNTMonitoring client and Nagios should be fairly stable - it is simply the standard NSCA protocol, but running over HTTPS PUT requests. On the receiving end, a simple PHP script accepts the results and puts it to the Nagios command file. The source code for TNTMonitoring contains an older version of that script; I should really be updating that. Also the documentation is really somewhat insufficient. The current installer will ask a number of questions before installing everything. One of the improvements I'm working on is to come up with a "quiet" version that simply installs without asking any questions - basically, what you've been asking for.

I have a strange problem. I don?t get > any notifications > > When hosts went down but notifications is working OK for services. > > Any hint ?? There are various options in the host definition which determine whether Nagios will send a notification for a host. For example max_check_attempts, check_interval, retry_interval, contact_groups, first_notification_delay, notification_period, notification_options and notifications_enabled. You can read all about them in the documentation at: http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/objectdefinitions.html#host It's possible too that you might have disabled notifications for the host. Check the host in the web front-end to make sure. In the host detail screen it should say (amongst other things) "Notifications: ENABLED". Also note that host and service notification options are specified separately in the contact definition. For example, the template I use for contacts looks like this: define contact{ name generic-contact service_notification_period 24x7 host_notification_period 24x7 service_notification_options w,c,r host_notification_options d,r service_notification_commands notify-service-by-email host_notification_commands notify-host-by-email register 0 } The host notification command is usually different to the service notification command. Check your command definitions and make sure there isn't some problem with your host notification command. hth, Jim ------------------------------ Message: 9 Date: Tue, 3 Mar 2009 14:02:12 -0000 From: "Martyn" Subject: [Nagios-users] NRPE only_from To: Message-ID: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Hi all, I want to test connectivity from the outside world to my Linux box inside my network, I'm wanting to test before I try and monitor an external box. On the inside of my network I have a Linux box on 192.168.3.245 running NRPE and my Nagios Server on 192.168.3.247 Both of these are connected to a 3560 Cisco Switch which in turn is connected to my Linksys Router then onto my Cable modem. On my Linux box I have in my nrpe "only_from = 192.168.3.247 which allows Nagios to gather its stats, however if I change it to the public IP address that is given I get the following errors "Check_NRPE: Error Could not complete SSL handshake". In my .cfg file on my Nagios server (the cfg of the box I want to monitor) I have pointed it to my public IP address and restarted Nagios. On my Linksys Router I'm port forwarding to the Linux box port 5666 but it makes no difference, I have even put my Linux box in the DMZ but still no joy. Does anybody know how I can test my Linux box so it looks like its from the external network, failing that does anybody have a test box I can try and monitor for 10 minutes or so. Also, NRPE the line only_from, am I allowed to put the domain name or is it just IP address only.

The requests do not originate from that device. It may pass them, but it does not originate them.

The key is that the requests must come in from the WAN interface for the port forwarding to work. If you're testing the port forwarding from your nagios machine (on private IP), the Linksys box isn't going to use the Forward rule for that connection. > Does anybody know how I can test my Linux box so it looks like its > from the external network, failing that does anybody have a test box > I can try and monitor for 10 minutes or so. > Test from a machine that is off your network, on the public Internet; a friends computer or one at work.

To: nagios List Message-ID: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Hello everyone! I'm having huge troubles with Mysql using 100% of CPU at peculiar times. I don't know when this problem starts and I don't know the reason, but when it happends I kill nagios, ndoutils and Mysql, and try to restart Mysql, ndoutils and Nagios at this order. When I start Nagios, the CPU usage of Mysql goes to 100% and everything just freezes with the initials INSERT/UPDATES made by ndoutils. Has anyone had the same problem? I've changed my.cnf to hold slow-queries logging, an have seen at intervals of 1 minute a query runned by ndo that tries to delete service_checks results. It takes about 4 seconds too run. Is this expected? Can anyone help me? Running Nagios 3.0.3, Debian etch, NDO2DB 1.4b7 and mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.45.

If you are able to query CPU and disk using SNMP, that's probably going to be the easiest way to monitor them on a Solaris system. I monitor an older Solaris system this way quite successfully. You'll find some good Nagios plugins for querying systems using SNMP at http://nagios.manubulon.com/ and http://nagiosexchange.org As for a step-by-step guide, if you find the documentation heavy going, you could try one of the many books available on the subject. My personal favourite is "Nagios" by Wolfgang Barth, pub. No Starch Press http://nostarch.com/nagios_2e.htm . I found the 1st edition very helpful and have just bought the 2nd edition. hth, Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null From Dries.Dams at vlaamsparlement.be Wed Mar 4 10:13:59 2009 From: Dries.Dams at vlaamsparlement.be (Dries Dams) Date: Wed, 04 Mar 2009 10:13:59 +0100 Subject: scheduling problems Message-ID: <0KFZ00B1I5NHNY00@mail.vlaamsparlement.be> Hi, Since the beginning of the year we are experiencing some problems with the scheduling of checks on our nagios installation. Some checks that normally run several times a day are now scheduled for a time more than a year from now. For example a check that runs today will have a next scheduled check date of 05/03/2010 instead of 05/03/2009. There is no real connection between the checks, it's like a random problem. Some checks have it, others don't. a manual reschedule of the check does solve the problem but sometimes only temporary.

This plugin actually checks to see if it gets a valid response from the radius daemon against an actual user, not just if the port is open. So, you've got to setup the clients and users files correctly on the radius server. You've also got to install a radius client on the nagios server and configure its conf file as well.

I moved on to radius_check_adv and radius_check_ih, both from NagiosExchange, and they both fail with errors about the secrets not being correct, though I have checked them multiple times and even tried configuring them as testing123 and test and nagios and more. radtest (from freeradius) can authenticate with no problem using the same secrets. What am I missing? Is there some super-secret config switch I need to set or something?

With check_radius, I had used a configuration almost identical to what you had (of course, addresses and secrets were different) ... I've run across an old message mentioning that running check_radius as root made it work..

I have used check_radius.pl by Carlos Vicente sucessfully in the past (it's title is "Perl check radius" on nagiosexchange.org). I found that after a month though the password for the radius account I was using would time out and the check would fail. Fair enough, but the admin of the Radius server would never get around to resetting the password for me so I gave up in the end and have stopped monitoring it. Good luck.

I just spent all of 10 minutes getting the perl version up and running. And it worked, first time.

We use .htaccess with Apache in the Nagios webroot to restrict authentication to only our internal LDAP system. Once auth'd Nagios' cgi.conf then defines which users have which perms. Users coming from our "protected" IP space don't have to auth at all and get the default user of guest. This has been working fine for us over the last year or two, but since trying to move to 3.1 the same method and config files are giving us different behavior. After authenticating succesfully as user "bob", Nagios doesn't pick up bob as the auth'd name and just sees me as the default "guest". Which means bob's Nagios perms are not activated, guest's are. No matter what I've tried I can't get Nagios to accept the authenticated user name from Apache, yet I have this working fine in 2.7 with identical configs. Anyone else seen the same behavior or have any ideas? This really has me stumped and is a blocker for us upgrading.

I have looked at both "NagiosQL" and "Lilac" since both have nice configuration tools and import options. However none of them provide a text console interface for importing config files from a script nor periodical scheduling of file imports. Has anybody implemented this? Is there a better tool for this besides NagiosQL or Lilac? Any pointers are appreciated //Marco -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I have my Nagios Server with NRPE plugins installed and I have a Linux Remote Server that I want to monitor, I know that you need NRPE on the remote Linux box but after that it goes a bit glazed, this is the bit I need to understand. Here is the standard configuration NRPE installed on my remote Linux box: command[check_users]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_users -w 5 -c 10 command[check_load]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_load -w 15,10,5 -c 30,25,20 command[check_disk1]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 20 -c 10 -p /dev/sda1 command[check_zombie_procs]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_procs -w 5 -c 10 -s Z command[check_total_procs]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_procs -w 150 -c 200 So my question is, if I need to monitor SMTP on the remote box I would have to ask the remote administrator to add the following command to their nrpe.cfg: Command[check_smtp]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_smtp -H localhost Do they have to use the -H localhost directive or is there something different they can use, the localhost just does not seem right looking at the other examples above. Then on my Nagios Server, under the .cfg box I want to monitor I define the command: define service{ use generic-service host_name linux-server service_description SSH check_command check_nrpe!check_ssh } Hope its not such a stupid question that it does not warrant a reply.

So the service isn't starting that you're trying to use to get counters from? nsclient++ seems to work okay, not tested on 2008 yet, pretty soon though.

Example, I have a firewall (prod-fireall) has 6 ip's associated with it so in host.cfg i should do like this define host{ host_name Prod-firewall-0 use generic-switch address xx.xx.xx.40 hostgroups firewall } define host{ host_name Prod-firewall-1 use generic-switch address xx.xx.xx.41 hostgroups firewall } define host{ host_name Prod-firewall-2 use generic-switch address xx.xx.xx.42 hostgroups firewall } like I need to assign different hostname per each ip address but in the nagios interface, this looks a long list of host name that we dont want to have.

Is there any combination of parameters with status.cgi or some other script that one could use to easily determine the current status of a specific host:service? I can get the whole page with this kind of URL nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi?host=HOSTNAME and then simply parse out the status of the specific service. However, I am not too happy with relying on the structure of an HTML page. I would like to be able to call up a URL from a remote machine, passing the hostname and service, and get some very basic text like OK or a numeric value for the status of that service. I would then take this value and pass it to some other application. Building something with Perl or PHP is straight forward (we're running NDO). But I was hoping that something is already available.

Message-ID: <49AFAFE1.9020009@enlume.com> Hi Friends, I Want share My experience of monitoring scripts on nagios , Very simple and Easy. I am 3 months experienced with nagios and u should make copy of all your modifying files initially. Actually I want to monitor tomcat threads,memory etc.. along with other services , i could not find plug ins similar to mysql. In my office we have inbuilt scripts to monitor tomcat manually. On test bases I had taken one of this script and tested , I had success. There are other ways thanks to Mr.Richard Quintin who shared his knowledge of using nagiosgraph and scripts to monitor tomcat but my suse10.2 , monitoring server have few issues i could not go head instead tried this. Monitoring nagios using scripts. Example: Monitoring tomcat Threads. At remote host side i.e where nrpe is installed / monitored box Created a file tomcat_threads.sh using vi editor #vi tomcat_threads.sh Entered following three line code #!/bin/sh totalThreads=`ps -C java -L -o pid,tid,pcpu,state | wc -l` echo "Total Threads Available:$totalThreads" Save the file and quit Made sure first script runs at # prompt. Moved script to /usr/local/nagios/libexec folder if its not created here. Set permission #chmod 755 tomcat_threads.sh Give ownner ship to nagios user only. #chown nagios:nagios tomcat_threads.sh #cd /usr/local/nagios/etc #vi nrpe.cfg Append below command line command[tomcat_threads.sh]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/tomcat_threads.sh Save and quit Restart xinetd to make changes effected. #service xinetd restart At monitoring server side / where nagios monitoring server installed. #cd /usr/local/nagios/etc/ #vi services.cfg Append this service define service{ use generic-service host_name amazon service_description tomcat_threads.sh check_command check_nrpe!tomcat_threads.sh notifications_enabled 0 } Save and quit check for erorrs #/usr/local/nagios/bin /nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg correct your erorror if any. Restart nagios service #service nagios restart DISCLAIMER: This is what worked for me and i am confident i will add as many as scripts i want in future.

But I tried to shut down one server that relates to the IP ( i added my test server IP here to check), I can still see that the host's IP is up and running in Nagios. And when I down the actual hostname ie Prod-firewall all the services related to that host were down. It looks the solution you gave me is not working. Any idea?

Either that, or check_ping_ip is misdefined; make sure that the argument to -H in your command is $ARG1$, not the host IP address. You may want to turn on logging and check the Nagios log files to see what commands are actually being issued. asam30 at gmail.com wrote: > Kevin, > > I did what you suggested, now I can one hostname and underneath I can > see services as ping_1, ping_2,..... to monitor other ips in the same > host/device. this looks kool.

The SE boolean value for snmpd_disable_trans is off on my machine and I can still query snmp. I would recommend the following: . check the firewall/iptables rules for udp port 161 . enable logging in iptables to see if the firewall is dropping packets (requires more work) . check the source and string under the com2sec definition in snmpd.conf . check the view definition in snmpd.conf, defaults are a bit restrictive . try using the setroubleshoot browser to see if any snmpd related warnings pop up. These warnings can include a section called Allowing Access. -Giovanni Satish Patel wrote: > I already used this option its not working. > > ----- Original Message ----- From: "Giovanni Torres" > > To: > Sent: Wednesday, March 04, 2009 10:50 AM > Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] SELinux problem for SNMP > > >> $ getsebool -a | grep snmpd >> snmpd_disable_trans --> off >> >> $ setsebool -P snmpd_disable_trans 1 >> >> $ getsebool snmpd_disable_trans >> snmpd_disable_trans --> on >> >> Let me know if that helps you out. >> >> Thanks, >> Giovanni >> >> Satish Patel wrote: >> > I have a selinx its running under default policy. i want SELinux >> disable for SNMP daemon thats it.. if any one know about how to disable >> for snmpd please let me know. >> > >> > I have tried to found on SELinux mailing list as well but not gave >> any appropriate answer. >> > >> > ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lee Azzarello" >> > To: >> > Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2009 12:09 PM >> > Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] SELinux problem for SNMP >> > >> > >> >> I believe your question would be better served on a list related to >> SELinux. >> >> >> >> In my experience SELinux is overkill for anything but the most >> >> paranoid security situations.

First execute it manually on the host and confirm it's working, next copy the command line into the nrpe configuration. Disconnect from that host and connect to the host where nagios is running and manually execute the check_nrpe plugin with the IP/hostname of the remote host to confirm remote execution works. Then go into the service configuration and lock it down. I prefer not to pass arguments via NRPE, so the service check is always just the name of the NRPE command name on the remote host. There is also SNMP, though that's a real can of worms if you haven't yet worked with Net-SNMP before. -lee On Wed, Mar 4, 2009 at 6:26 PM, Martyn wrote: > Hi all, hope you do no think this is a stupid question; however I have to > ask it anyway for a better understanding. > > I have my Nagios Server with NRPE plugins installed and I have a Linux > Remote Server that I want to monitor, I know that you need NRPE on the > remote Linux box but after that it goes a bit glazed, this is the bit I need > to understand. > > Here is the standard configuration NRPE installed on my remote Linux box: > > command[check_users]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_users -w 5 -c 10 > command[check_load]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_load -w 15,10,5 -c > 30,25,20 > command[check_disk1]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 20 -c 10 -p > /dev/sda1 > command[check_zombie_procs]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_procs -w 5 -c 10 > -s Z > command[check_total_procs]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_procs -w 150 -c > 200 > > So my question is, if I need to monitor SMTP on the remote box I would have > to ask the remote administrator to add the following command to their > nrpe.cfg: > > Command[check_smtp]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_smtp -H localhost > > Do they have to use the -H localhost directive or is there something > different they can use, the localhost just does not seem right looking at > the other examples above. > > Then on my Nagios Server, under the .cfg box I want to monitor I define the > command: > > define service{ > ??????? use????????????????????????????? generic-service > ??????? host_name?????????????????? linux-server > ??????? service_description??????

Currently, I have only tested it with HP printers, but at least in theory it should work with Ricoh and others as well, since it uses standard SNMP. If you want to try it out, download http://sourceforge.net/projects/tntnagiosplugin/ I would actually appreciate feedback about what printers it does or does not work with. One catch: the plugin only runs on Windows, so it is not directly useful for the majority of nagios users (I wrote it primarily for my own needs). Also, the only thing it currently monitors is toner level. Doug Veldhuisen wrote: > > I tried once to get RICOH Savin Printers checked via Nagios.

Message-ID: <49AFF610.6070207@wpkg.org> Are there alternative Status Maps for Nagios? Current implementation has at least these limitations: 1. With lots of monitored hosts, the map becomes unreadable / does not fit on the screen. The ideal would be if status map allowed to draw selected host groups only (right now, it allows host group selection, but the whole map with all hosts is rendered anyway; not selected hosts won't have icons/descriptions, but it doesn't help much with readability) 2. All nagios users can see the whole network structure for all hosts. Even if a given web user is not authorised to view certain hosts, he/she will see them anyway on the status map (without icons/descriptions). It can be even viewed as a security flaw.

Now host is not checking on regular time interval because I have the check_interval is set to "0". Lets say the service check fails, at this point would nagios perform on demand host check? Also would nagios show host status as down and service status as critical? Please advise on this.

It doesn't need NRPE to do that. If this remote server answers on port 25 on an IP reachable from your nagios host, you could just as easily run it from your nagios host and probably have more reliable results. The only scenario where the check above makes sense is if the SMTP server only accepts connections from the local machine. You can always run 'check_ --help' to see what parameters are required and available. NRPE is only needed for checking things that don't expose external services. Things like disk space, cpu utilization, memory use, etc.. Any network aware daemons like sendmail, postfix, apache, sshd, etc can generally be checked without using NRPE. > Then on my Nagios Server, under the .cfg box I want to monitor I > define the command: > > define service{ > use generic-service > host_name linux-server > service_description SSH > check_command check_nrpe!check_ssh > } > This is another one that doesn't really make sense to run through NRPE. check_ssh tries to connect to port 22 on a specified host (-H) to see if sshd is listening. You'd want to perform that test from a different box than sshd is running on to make sure it's listening publicly.

Another one well worth looking at is NExSM. It can be a bit of a mare to get it installed and working, but for a large network is probably the best of the bunch. Unlike NagVis it doesn't rely on NDOUtils (MySQL database). The upside of this is you don't have to install/run a MySQL database. The downside is that the amount of querying it does of your Nagios server can be a bit heavy (depending on your setup).

Thank you for your answer. Do you think that just after a "HARD UP" the check number should be reset to "1"? I don?t think so. Look at other messages log, for the same host: [1236260301] HOST ALERT: sani6as05;DOWN;SOFT;1;Network is unreachable [1236260361] HOST ALERT: sani6as05;UP;SOFT;2;TCP OK - 0.538 second response time on port 135 [1236260681] HOST ALERT: sani6as05;DOWN;SOFT;1;Network is unreachable [1236260751] HOST ALERT: sani6as05;DOWN;SOFT;2;Network is unreachable [1236260821] HOST ALERT: sani6as05;DOWN;SOFT;3;Network is unreachable [1236260891] HOST ALERT: sani6as05;DOWN;HARD;4;Network is unreachable In this example, after the "UP;SOFT;2" we had a "DOWN;SOFT;1". That is my doubt? Someties Nagios resets the check number, sometimes it doesn?t. Thank you again. Rodney.

When using nagios config version 2 in nagios3 I have some errors. Looking at the config of version 2 I see: define host{ name standard-host use generic-host ; Name of host template to use register 0 ; Template - don't register host_name not-defined alias not-defined check_command check-host-alive contact_groups pager notification_period 24x7 } define host{ name virtual-host use generic-host ; Name of host template to use register 0 ; Template - don't regis ter host_name not-defined alias not-defined check_command check-host-alive contact_groups pager notification_period workhours } It worked with nagios2 ; nagios3 Warning: Duplicate definition found for host 'not-defined' and then error Could not add object property at line point to host_name not-defined. I changed the value of host_name to be uniques such as not-defined0, not-defined1 and it stop complaining. But I do not know what nagios3 understand that in case name and host_name are both defined in host definition?

I have a series of items that I need to get Nagios to do so I am excited to be learning it and will probably frequent this list. To start with, how do I specify to watch a service in Windows? For example, I want to watch the Backup Exec remote agent on a series of servers and be paged if for some reason it is not started. Do I need an add on for this or can I simply specify it in the Windows Cfg file? Thanks.

You're right, but your check_disk plugin seems to be giving you wrong results. I wonder is it something peculiar to whichever operating-system you are using? I just tried it here on Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Server and got these results (which I believe are fine): $ /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 20% -c 10% -p / DISK OK - free space: / 25541 MB (81% inode=97%);| /=5741MB;26353;29647;0;32942 $ df -h / Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda1 33G 5.7G 25G 19% / You could also check your command definition to make sure there's nothing silly in there, but I presume you're using the default from your original install which should normally work fine.

But if I want to give access to given hostgroups to a few people, they should not see the map for the whole infrastructure monitored by nagios. Once, it may confuse them, two, there is no reason why they should see everything (even without hostnames, it unnecessarily outlines the scale of the whole infrastructure). So, maybe the simplest solution would be to entirely disable status map for these users?

Let me explain the background first : We have a several servers that are rebooted every weekend and one of them is a file server with several exported mount points to other servers . After the reboots one of the machines is unable to recover the mount points ( could be cause we are still using smbfs and not cifs ) and we need to manually remount those filesystems . I wanted to implement an event handler to remount the "stuck" mount points after the reboot is complete ,( doing a "mount -f -a " is not an option ) , the problem i am facing is - how do i pass the mount point to the event handler ? is it at all possible ? the output from the command is as follows ; the error : [1235783450] Warning: The check of service 'sapmnt_PX1 disk space' on host 'host' looks like it was orphaned (results never came back).

I had installed Nagios on a server I used to run some tests and now I have validate my developments I have to transfer Nagios from this server to a production one. Till then, there is no problem... Unfortunately, I had to run some hosts and services' checks and I want to keep these results on the new server. Should I only copy the old log files to the new installation or do I need to do something else ? I understood the checks' history are only kept in the log files so I imagine all I have to do is some copy but will my new Nagios look at them as its own log files?

Wow! That made a huge difference! I simply added a file "nagios.cnf" under /etc/mysql/conf.d like so: [mysqld] innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit = 2 and it reduced my Nagios startup time from more than 3 minutes to only 30 seconds! I already had quite a few of the data_processing_options disabled in ndomod.cfg and had reduced all of the max_*_age parameters in ndo2db.cfg to 24 hours (before those my startup time was more than 5 minutes). Many thanks indeed!

I am trying to get my Nagios 3.0.4 configuration setup with NRPE to remotely monitor the status of a process on my remote systems. I followed the configuration for NRPE on both the Nagios server and the remote system and have it very close but am stumbling over the final piece. I have the remote system able to work with the nrpe daemon and that is all good. When I try to do a simple check_nrpe from my Nagios server I am getting: CHECK_NRPE: Error receiving data from host. I tried to telnet to the port on the remote system and was successful (telnet remotehost 5666). This means it can't be a firewall issue or any problem with routing. The log on the remote system shows the nrpe daemon starting up and exiting on the completion of the check. I know this must be something very simple that I am missing. Can someone point me to something that can help me resolve this issue? Thanks in advance! Larry -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I am maintaining and redesigning a quite large Nagios installation in a mixed environment. The boxes we are monitoring are firewalls, servers, proxies, loadbalancers, ... a lot of stuff. As we have different groups of admins which administer different systems we had host groups like for example "Frontent-Proxies", "Application-Firewalls" and so on and the mapping to the responsible users so that a antivirus administrator does not have to see a broken firewall module. The problem is using these groups also for managing the service-to-host mapping in an easy manner. So for example we have 20 firewalls in "Application-Firewalls", they are the same machines, BUT 8 of them must use a different SNMP port or another additional service checks or need different warning/critical thresholds because of higher load. Managing this in a per-host-manner in services config file is hard work. My idea was to make something like "organinizational" and "functional" subgroups of them, so for example: Application-Firewalls | +--Application-Firewalls_special1 | | | +-- host1 | +-- host2 | +-- ... | +--Application-Firewalls_special2 | +-- host3 | +-- host4 The problem is that all users which are able to view all the hosts included in all the subgroups of "Application-Firewalls" see _all_ the subgroups in host overview. Even more difficult is the following szenario: Firewalls (for overview fw-admins) | +--checkpoint1 +--checkpoint2 +--about 20 more machines Firewalls_with_multicast_routing | +--checkpoint1 +--other machines Now the machines appear twice in the host overview. I am sure that administrators of larger installations have already thought about this and maybe you have a few good ideas for me?

It doesn't need NRPE to do that. If this remote server answers on port 25 on an IP reachable from your nagios host, you could just as easily run it from your nagios host and probably have more reliable results. The only scenario where the check above makes sense is if the SMTP server only accepts connections from the local machine. You can always run 'check_ --help' to see what parameters are required and available. NRPE is only needed for checking things that don't expose external services. Things like disk space, cpu utilization, memory use, etc.. Any network aware daemons like sendmail, postfix, apache, sshd, etc can generally be checked without using NRPE. > Then on my Nagios Server, under the .cfg box I want to monitor I > define the command: > > define service{ > use generic-service > host_name linux-server > service_description SSH > check_command check_nrpe!check_ssh > } > This is another one that doesn't really make sense to run through NRPE. check_ssh tries to connect to port 22 on a specified host (-H) to see if sshd is listening. You'd want to perform that test from a different box than sshd is running on to make sure it's listening publicly. Running directly from nagios is better. define service{ use generic-service host_name linux-server service_description SSH check_command check_ssh } Assuming your check_ssh command definition looks something like -- define command { command_name check_ssh command_line $USER1$/check_ssh -t 30 -H $HOSTADDRESS$ } -- Marc ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null From phanoko at gmail.com Fri Mar 6 19:52:01 2009 From: phanoko at gmail.com (matt wells) Date: Fri, 6 Mar 2009 18:52:01 +0000 Subject: 2-D map question..

NDOUtils is just a way to store that data in a DB for access by other applications.

Since these are templates (register 0) you should just leave host_name and alias undefined (remove the lines). You'll have to define them anyway when you use the template.

As Jim indicated, parenting does this better. http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/networkreachability.html If your switch fails, it's children will be identified as UNREACHABLE instead of DOWN. If you don't want notifications for those children, don't specify unreachable as a wanted notification_option. Are you seeing this behavior when the switch goes down? -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users at lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null From marc at ena.com Mon Mar 9 14:59:25 2009 From: marc at ena.com (Marc Powell) Date: Mon, 9 Mar 2009 08:59:25 -0500 Subject: logout for nagios web interface In-Reply-To: <6db4a4200903090622w5498468eo1f092ba003b60e3e@mail.gmail.com> References: <6db4a4200903090622w5498468eo1f092ba003b60e3e@mail.gmail.com> Message-ID: <2907828C-B4E0-4E73-A5CC-CB2C8EC20614@ena.com> On Mar 9, 2009, at 8:22 AM, shadih rahman wrote: > All, > Is it possible to create logout for nagios web interface.

You'll need to call the check_http script with the -u option. The default "check_http" command doesn't do this, so you'll have to create a new one. Since you're also querying a custom port, you'll need to pass that info along too.

It also hasn't been updated since 2006. If you're going to do a new Nagios install, you should be on 3.x. If you're going to try one, you're probably best off with NagMin, but realistically, unless you're going to make changes in the web frontend, then crawl your server for what's changed and diff it, you aren't likely to learn it. I just migrated from BB to Nagios following Wolfgang Barth's "Nagios 2nd Edition" and its been really helpful to understand the file structures and command-line, especially if you want to extend Nagios with trending, etc. So this is where I politely say "suck it up and read the manual... or at least a good book about it". :) Of course, a few years of experience as a UNIX/Linux admin won't hurt either...

The problem is really not a Nagios problem, but an HTTP authentication problem. Nagios uses HTTP authentication, and that means that the user name and password are sent with every single request. So when you try to reset this variable, it will get set right back to what it was the next time the user requests a page. HTTP authentication did not envision ever logging out; that is one of the reasons why most Web sites today use Web forms and session-based logins instead.

It also hasn't been updated since 2006. If you're going to do a new Nagios install, you should be on 3.x. If you're going to try one, you're probably best off with NagMin, but realistically, unless you're going to make changes in the web frontend, then crawl your server for what's changed and diff it, you aren't likely to learn it.

Do I understand right that the check_http works without problems (prints OK) but nagios claims that the host is down? You need to change the check_host command for this host to something that gives you a clear knowledge about the host. Or you do not monitor the host itself and change the check_host command to some dummy. > can any one help. this is my client Server, and i want to check > apache/jboss and need to restart if service is down. ping is disabled > on it.

The network tests are fine, but I'm curious which is the best solution for monitoring local items on a Windows server (2000, 2003, and 2008). Here's what I think the options are: Use check_nt with NSClient, NSClient++, OpMon Agent, or NC_Net Use check_nrpe with NSClient++, OpMon Agent, or NRPE_NT Use check_ncnet with NSClient, NSClient++, OpMon Agent, or NC_Ne Use NSCA-Daemon with NC_Net Note: I'm interested in screwing with WMI... NSClient appears to be old, but stable and well known. However I see it has good support for NT4 and 2000 and 2003 R1, but not 2003 R2 and I don't see anything about 2008 Server. NC_Net looks current and well developed. NSClient++ seems to have NSClient compatibility, but is more current and supports NT4 thru 2008. It looks like I already have check_nt as part of a default 3.x installation. NRPE_NT also seems to have been around for a bit and stable. NSClient++ seems to have its own, native NRPE support. What are your opinions of the best combination to A) get the best overall support and B) have the least impact/installation on a Windows server? I want something current and currently developed with 2008 support, but I also want stability and the least work possible. Presently I'm using NRPE for my local linux/UNIX servers, so I'm inclined to give NRPE a try, but I'd also like to avoid loading plugins on the Windows client if I can. I'm leaning towards NSClient++ with check_nt, but I'm not sure this is the best solutions. Thoughts, opinions, and ideas are requested... -- A.

As far as I know, hostgroups are all at the same level, but hosts can be members of more than one hostgroup. I set my host definitions up like this: define host { use prod_windows_server host_name servername alias serveralias address w.x.y.z hostgroups +FTP Servers,Web Servers } My prod_windows_server host template sets a hostgroup of windows_servers. In the host definition here, the + adds the additional host groups to the host. Without the +, the host definition's hostgroup setting would replace windows_servers. Then, in my services.cfg, I assign services to hostgroups: define service { use standard_service name Web_Service hostgroup_name Web Servers service_description Service: Web check_command check_nt_service!W3SVC } You don't have to assign services to a hostgroup, but it's convenient for me to do so. -- Chris Beattie Nothing in this message is intended to make or accept and offer or to form a contract, except that an attachment that is an image of a contract bearing the signature of an officer of our company may be or become a contract.

Here's what I think the options are: Use check_nt with NSClient, NSClient++, OpMon Agent, or NC_Net Use check_nrpe with NSClient++, OpMon Agent, or NRPE_NT Use check_ncnet with NSClient, NSClient++, OpMon Agent, or NC_Ne Use NSCA-Daemon with NC_Net Note: I'm interested in screwing with WMI... NSClient appears to be old, but stable and well known. However I see it has good support for NT4 and 2000 and 2003 R1, but not 2003 R2 and I don't see anything about 2008 Server. NC_Net looks current and well developed. NSClient++ seems to have NSClient compatibility, but is more current and supports NT4 thru 2008. It looks like I already have check_nt as part of a default 3.x installation. NRPE_NT also seems to have been around for a bit and stable. NSClient++ seems to have its own, native NRPE support. What are your opinions of the best combination to A) get the best overall support and B) have the least impact/installation on a Windows server? I want something current and currently developed with 2008 support, but I also want stability and the least work possible. Presently I'm using NRPE for my local linux/UNIX servers, so I'm inclined to give NRPE a try, but I'd also like to avoid loading plugins on the Windows client if I can. I'm leaning towards NSClient++ with check_nt, but I'm not sure this is the best solutions. Thoughts, opinions, and ideas are requested... -- A.

Event handlers are not meant to be used for notifications. The $CONTACTEMAIL$ macro isn't valid for them.

There are worse options, but I suggest you read http://trac.nakednuns.org/nscp/wiki/doc/About where the author, Michael Medin says, amongst other things, "As for checking with NSClient++, I would recommend NRPE as it is a lot more flexible than check_nt." > Thoughts, opinions, and ideas are requested... There isn't any substitute for trying some of these solutions for yourself and finding out what the pros & cons are. Personally, I use NSClient++ with mostly nrpe checks but also some check_nt checks. On occasion I also use the nsca functionality with NSClient++ to do passive checks. I've also used a standalone send_nsca (sorry can't remember which) to return results from backup scripts and suchlike to Nagios. If you decide to try nc_net, make sure you download and compile their alternative check_nt which has much better support for performance data and a few other neat features not available in the default check_nt plugin.

My configuration is e.g: define service { flap_detection_enabled 0 check_freshness 0 check_period 24x7 freshness_threshold 0 passive_checks_enabled 1 notification_period 24x7 retain_status_information 0 high_flap_threshold 0 service_description Jira Webservice parallelize_check 1 notification_options w,u,c,r normal_check_interval 1 host_name oldmz-main-01 obsess_over_service 0 retry_check_interval 1 event_handler_enabled 1 notifications_enabled 1 event_handler notify-by-email active_checks_enabled 1 process_perf_data 1 is_volatile 0 max_check_attempts 5 retain_nonstatus_information 0 check_command check_https_url!https://domain/jira/secure/Dashboard.jspa low_flap_threshold 0 notification_interval 60 contact_groups tomcat.admins } The problem is that i have the event_handler_enabled? And the event_handler "notify_by_email" is used for notifications _and_ the event_handler? With 2.x i only got a notification when the service isnt available for 5 minutes. With 3.x the event_handler is executed every minute the service isnt available. So will it help if i disable the "event_handler_enabled"?

In-Reply-To: <49B6CEF0.80908@gmail.com> References: <49B6CEF0.80908@gmail.com> Message-ID: There are a Lot of options Naturally I prefer NC_NEt since I made it but it is not Ideal for all situations, It uses the Dot Net Framework. and Allows easy access to WMI, Event Logs, and Custom scripts and executables. (use check_nc_net to access the help on the individual commads in nc_net) I would recomend you test all the agents. and see what one you like the best, each on had advantages and disadvantages. Then decide what you need to fetch from the windows servers and if you need to Push or Pull the data from that server. if you need to Push from Windows to Nagios, then use NSCA or NSCA through NC_NEt. If you need/want to pull from Nagios initiating the commands Start with CHeck_nt and try any of the Windows clients. (if availible try them all check_nt syntex is the same for each.) once installed you will see what additional commands are availible either through the documentaiton or the help IF windows client you like the best is missing a particular command or means of retrieving the data you want then use NRPE to augment it. this will allow for custom scripts and executables to retrive data or perform work. For most active checks check_nrpe and check_nt can be used. since NC_NEt has a lot of additional commands built into it it has its own version of check_nt called check_nc_net check_nc_net contians the NC_NEt command documention through the --help=COMMANDNAME Argument After testing them, Post back some of your experience it may help others choose what one is best for them.

Event handlers are used to perform special actions like trying to restart a service before a notification is needed. The notification command that gets run is determined from the contact{} definition, and is not directly associated with a service. The contact almost certainly has notify_by_email specified as their service_notification_command (it's real purpose). > With 2.x i only got a notification when the service isnt available > for 5 > minutes.

For the iPhone it's a particularly tricky problem due to the small amount of memory available to applications. It's a pretty sophisticated little multi-threaded application that does alot of incremental concurrent loading and various memory management tricks to keep the footprint as small as possible and keep the user interface snappy even when on an Edge iPhone.

Currently I use an external email-sms service similar to http://www.intellisms.co.uk so I can send emails from Nagios in the usual way and have them converted to SMS. It's extremely easy to set up, but has the disadvantage that if the email system goes down, we don't know about it! Alternatively, you could connect a mobile 'phone to your Nagios server and send SMS using gnokii http://www.gnokii.org/ or similar, or your mobile operator might well have an http interface you could use or can recommend other options. In Nagios, you specify the notification methods in command definitions which you can write yourself so it's extremely flexible. See http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/notifications.html under the heading "Notification Methods". hth, Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.

I am (BTW) the author of NSClient++ so I am pretty biased... I did a presenation on windows monitoring at netways nagios conference last year where I presented my views on the various options avalible for windows monitoring (slides can be found (in .pptx) http://nsclient.org/nscp/wiki/conferences/nnk-2008 ) and my conclusion was the following (see below). There is also (if you want) some more details on the various options in the powerpoint slides (and if you want I can email you if you cant read the ppt) this is just the ending summary. Conclusion: I would use either: * NSClient++ * NC_NET I would not use (unless I have a specific reason): * SNMP - Complex to use * NSClient - Old and outdated * NRPE_NT - Hard for some (simple) checks * OpMonAgent - I don?t see the benefit * "Agentless" WMI - Limited functionality // Michael Medin > I'm a UNIX and network guy, but since Nagios is my task, I also have to > add the Windows servers to Nagios.

I'm pretty sure there isn't one called "\Local Area Connection\%". On your Windows system go in to Administrative Tools / Performance and add the counter you want to look at. Once you can see it in the performance tool, right-click on it and click "Properties" to see the full name of the counter which you want to monitor. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.

When listing events for a particular day in our report, it would be very helpful to extract as much information as to how the particular event was covered (i.e. the scheduled downtime comment always carries ID an id into our ticket tracking system, which could be used to extract further information, and so on).

When I was using Nagios 2.7 I noticed that sometimes Nagios wouldn't reapply the Acknowedge after a daemon restart until a few seconds after starting up, so sometimes I would get these additional alerts just like you describe. I haven't seen the same issue since upgrading to Nagios 3. I'm not certain whether that's because it's fixed now or just that my new config just works better than the old one.

Message-ID: <586806120903110837m3fc40fc5ia6580ac03a14e05b@mail.gmail.com> In the course of my learning (just starting out) how to work with Nagios I have found that it isn't aware of layer 2 connections. In other words, if I have 2 switches with a trunk between them Nagios doesn't seem to provide me a way to either note that manually on the map nor does it seem to be aware of that type of connectivity. The same applies to servers, there doesn't seem to be a way to identify which switch a server is connected to. Now I admit this might be due to my limited knowledge of the product so I ask the members here. Am I correct in this assessment? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

What I have been seeing for the last few days is that some of the services I'm monitoring are returning the following error for every host: (Return code of 127 is out of bounds - plugin may be missing) Some services are performing checks just fine, but others (most importantly check_ping) give the above error. I've tried googling this and gotten some ideas about file permissions and making sure the Nagios.cfg file points to the directory where the plugins are located, but I can't seem to get this fixed. This all started when I was using the Fruity interface to make some host changes and upload them to Nagios, I'm not sure if something got corrupted. The Nagios service starts up without any errors. Any ideas?

You might want to looks at something like opsview if you want a picture of your network like that. Also, fwiw, I think what you're really asking for is a layer 1 map if you want to know what host is plugged into what port - layer2 would be like what host is on a particular broadcast domain. I think most people give up on the nagios map pretty quickly, or at the most setup a few partent/child hosts and leave it at that. .r' -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Parent-child relationships are useful to get a bigger picture of points of failure, for example if a web proxy has 5 app servers behind it, 6 hosts will go down if that proxy fails. -lee ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.

I simply make sure that every host has at least one active-check (not passive) service. The simplest is to make sure you ping (as a service check) everything which wouldn't otherwise have an active service check configured. I tried putting two screens on one page using frames and having one above the other, but that was less than satisfactory - if the top frame had lots of alerts on it, the bottom frame would get shoved below the visible screen. There are myriad alternative front-ends for Nagios. Maybe one of those will do what you want it to?

I'll post my configs later, but once you have confirmed that SMS is setup and working (make sure that for every email alert, you also get an SMS alert), then you define your network topology and put them into hostgroups. In my case, I have a hostgroup of "network-core" which includes my core routers, firewalls, Exchange server, Exchange storage, and the switch connecting the Exchange system with the firewall. I then have a contactgroup of the SMS addresses of three key people (myself included). If any of those device fail, Nagios sends notification via SMS. If anything else fails, it goes via emails. The kewl thing is I'll often sleep through emails, but if I get an SMS, I know something serious failed and I force myself to get up... Additionally, I tend to define a sanity check: a ping to yahoo and http to MSN and non-caching dns query of Google. If all sanity checks fail and are not resolved within 4 hours, then through escalations, an SMS is sent to the manager of the support team at our ISP as we likely have a bandwidth down issue. If sanity checks AND a core network device fail, my ISP doesn't get notified as we know its us... A.

These versions coexist nicely. Microsoft has been pushing them out as part of their update packages, so the only reason they might not be installed is that either an administrator specifically excluded them from installing due to some incompatibility (which is rare; I haven't heard of any problems), or hasn't been diligent about doing Windows updating in the first place. On all the servers I manage, I use WSUS and have these updates pushed out automatically. Or if you prefer, run Windows Update, and you will get all of these versions of .Net. That said, for Nagios purposes, I am not very fond of using .Net. The reason is that it has a huge footprint - and that means, more memory, slower loading times, and a host of other issues. Of the plugins I use in TNTMonitoring, those that do use .Net are well over 1 MB *each*. Those that don't use it are a few dozen KB each. Obviously, I'm looking to replace those big plugins at some point. It might be less severe for an agent that runs continuously than for a plugin that is started once.

Note that it could also be permissions on one of the directories on the path to the plugin. In most distributions I have seen, plugins are either in /usr/lib/nagios/plugins, or in /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins. Maybe Fruity somehow changed the directory from lib64 to lib or vice versa? You say that some checks are working and some aren't. Find one of the plugins that works, and one that doesn't, and compare the permissions and file locations. And finally, if you have turned on one of the hardening mechanisms (such as SELinux or AppArmor), a plugin may not be executable even with the right permissions. Since you say it happened when you used Fruity, my first guess is that it somehow changed the directory where Nagios looks for plugins.
