[Nagios-users] Fwd: sysUpTime.0: Status showing 'UNKNOWN'

[Jimmyboy]

Hi All,

Yesterday, I was unable to get the snmp-based Uptime data of a remote RSM in
the Nagios Web Interface.

Today, I have setup an L3 switch with VLAN and its IP address, and global
SNMP settings (public community only).

SNMP settings are as follows:
snmp-server community public ro
access-list 60 permit any
snmp-server host IP public
snmp-server enable traps
snmp-server enable traps snmp
snmp-server enable traps syslog

   - This switch is in the same subnet as the Nagios machine.
   - The access-list is set with permit 'any'.

 Still, I am unable to get the sysUpTime information in nagios web
interface. However, on doing an snmpwalk as under succeeds.

snmpwalk -v1 -c  sysUptime
DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::sysUpTimeInstance
= Timeticks: (496887) 1:22:48.87

So, I feel there is something I have missed out on?

Any idea what that might be?


Thanks,
Jim

To: frisv...@lafayette.edu, Sean Carolan 




I installed SNMP service on a Windows machine and set the NAGIOS
configuration files to monitor it for 'sysUptime'. It returns me a
successful reply on doing an *snmpwalk*.

 snmpwalk -v1 -c  sysUptime
DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::sysUpTimeInstance = Timeticks: (10375118) 1 day,
4:49:11.18

However, the Nagios web interface shows its status as UNKNOWN. The 'Status
Information' against it says this:
Usage:check_snmp -H  -o  [-w warn_range] [-c crit_range]

But, this fails.

At this point, we can say that Nagios is doing its job through SNMP.
So, as you pointed out, may be there are ACLs applied on the RSM, which I
need to check out.


Thanks,
Jim

Are there any app to integrate Cacti in Nagios? I've red about Centreon, can

It looks like it actually is displaying correctly but ignoring the

[Haffner, David (GE, Corporate, consultant)]

Hi all, 
I've been having a horrible time getting the sidebar to display
correctly.  Can anyone point me to a file or directory or something that
needs to be tweeked?
I've got it running on RHEL4.  Everything functions fine, it's just that
the sidebar displays wrong.  Here's a screenshot.
 
Thanks!

[Nagios-users] Using a different notification command after a certain downtime

[Georg M. Sorst]

Hi list!

I am currently integrating Skype into our monitoring to provide SMS
notifications. It's working pretty fine and if you're interested you can
check out my documentation in the Nagios wiki [1].

However, I had one tiny problem with the configuration that I would like
to sort out if possible. The problem is: When the HTTPs are down for
more than 20 minutes I want to be notified by SMS, but I still want to
use the regular mail notifications (currently set to occur after I
believe 3 Minutes). My solution to this was to duplicate the service
definitions for HTTP to provide different check intervals / max check
attempts (coming out at 10 minutes and 20 minutes respectively) and
contact groups / contacts (the contacts in the first group use mail
notifications, the contacts in the second group use SMS notifications,
but are essentially the same users as in the first group, just
duplicated). Have a look at the wiki page if this description is unclear.

So, in essence my question is if there is any way to tell Nagios to
"switch" to a different notification command after a certain downtime or
any other way to avoid this duplication.

Thanks and best regards,
Georg

Re: [Nagios-users] Error While Using check_ifstatus

[Onotsky, Steve x55328]

You may have v3 available on the device you are querying, but you need
to specify a lot more information to snmpwalk than you have.

 

Read more at
http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/TUT:SNMPv3_Options
(especially the table at about the middle of the page).

I tried check_ifstatus with -v 2  option and getting same message:

localhost -v 2 -C public -I -u E1 6/0
CRITICAL: Requested table is empty or does not exist for

I'll guess the message that "requested table is empty or does not exist
for 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8"  means that there is something that needs
configuring in snmp (???).  I am very green with snmp.

Are you sure the device you are quering is using SNMP v1 ?
most devices come with SNMP2 or even 3 , check the setting of
you snmp query and the snmp setting on 
the device to see what version you need to use to check..

[Nagios-users] Different notification contacts depending on service state

[Chris Picton]

Hi all

I am trying to create a service which will notify one group of users if 
the service state is 'u' and a different group of users if the state is 
'c'

Is this possible without creating duplicate service checks?

You assume wrong. This makes it depend on each hostgroup member. In order
to do "same-host" dependencies, you can leave out one of the "hostgroup_name"
or "dependent_hostgroup_name". I can't remember which, so go browse the docs
to find out. Do note that same-host dependencies only work in Nagios 3.

Right. I'll try to apply the depth first search to host and service
dependencies too. It was originally a patch from Jean Gabès, and it
speeds up parent/child relations for hosts by a *huge* amount, so it's
probably worth adding it to dependencies too.

Even so, I'm guessing you actually added 100 (or more) times the number of
dependencies you expected to add, so it's not surprising this eats a lot
of CPU.

Re: [Nagios-users] hostgroups and service dependencies?

[Assaf Flatto]

The 53 second delay is natural - as nagios is calculating the dependencies and 
what it 
calls "circular dependencies " - meaning it check that the definition is 
correct and the logic you 
defined is fine .

the delay will be there as long as you have the dependencies - as you are 
adding more complexity to 
the nagios operations and work logic - so it takes more time to prepare and 
create 
the "understanding " of the logic and requirements.

creating 100 definitions of service dependencies will not reduce the 
calculation time , and will 
only make you have a more "mess" in the configuration , the way you set it up 
is correct , and more 
elegant to read and understand by the next guy that will need to take care of 
the system (if that 
ever happens ).

Are you sure the device you are quering is using SNMP v1 ?
most devices come with SNMP2 or even 3 , check the setting of you snmp query

the device to see what version you need to use to check..
