Re: [Nagios-users] How to monitor a linux file opened closed status using Nagios
Hi, Thanks for your guidance.I followed your instructions.I installed net_nc in windows-XP and I could only get the file's modified time. I am also interested to know about how to monitor a linux file's status whether it is opened or closed and modified etc.I used chech_file_age plugin which gives only the age of the file.Is there any way please help me.

Check_nt requires a Plugin on the Windows Host, So what plugin is on the Windows Host? Nc_net should allow for testing Modified Date via Check_nc_net of both Files or directorys. Windows will report different values for these, and nc_net has options to choose between these. I do not know how this is implemented through the other Windows Plugins. An alternative if you cannot find a plugin to do it, is to write a VB script then send the results via NSCA, or Fetch usin NRPE.

I'm not aware of any plugins that check these. If you decide to write your own plugin, lsof (when run using sudo) will be your friend. 'is opened' - specified file appears in the output of lsof 'is closed' - specified file does not appear in the output of lsof 'is modified' - depends on what you mean by modified. File age may be sufficient but if you want to see if actual changes were made you'll need to create a copy at each run and compare the current with the previous (using cmp or diff, for example). A quick google for 'nagios check lsof' doesn't yield any interesting initial results but you might have luck further in the search results. -- Marc -- Come build with us!

[Nagios-users] Not sending e-mails

Nagios is trying to send notifications using the command you've defined, according to the logs. You haven't provided the definition for that command (notify-service-by-email), but I assume it's trying to send an email. If you're using anything like the example commands that come with Nagios, it is probably using something like /bin/mail to send the message, and your mail log would be a good place to look for why it's not being delivered. -- Come build with us!

[Nagios-users] getting repeat emails
I am sure I am missing something simple, and would like some extra eyes on this. The effect I'm seeing is that when a service is in a state I want to send notifications (e.g. CRITICAL) for, it seems to keep on sending notifications out, every 20 or 30 minutes or so. For example: 2009-9-29 13:36:38 SERVICE NOTIFICATION: kriek-email;kokeyserver;Login Requests;CRITICAL;notify-by-email;CRITICAL LoginRequests:1065(1000.0) 2009-9-29 14:06:25 SERVICE NOTIFICATION: kriek-email;kokeyserver;Login Requests;CRITICAL;notify-by-email;CRITICAL LoginRequests:1128(1000.0) 2009-9-29 14:46:33 SERVICE NOTIFICATION: kriek-email;kokeyserver;Login Requests;CRITICAL;notify-by-email;CRITICAL LoginRequests:1046(1000.0) What I want is for it to notify me only once when it goes from OK to CRITICAL, until the service is OK again. I would have thought this is controlled by notification interval, but here's the service from the objects cache: define service { host_name kokeyserver service_description Login Requests check_period24x7 check_command service-is-stale contact_groups linux-admins notification_period 24x7 initial_state o check_interval 5.00 retry_interval 1.00 max_check_attempts 3 is_volatile 0 parallelize_check 1 active_checks_enabled 0 passive_checks_enabled 1 obsess_over_service 0 event_handler_enabled 1 low_flap_threshold 0.00 high_flap_threshold 0.00 flap_detection_enabled 0 flap_detection_options o,w,u,c freshness_threshold 1800 check_freshness 1 notification_optionsu,w,c,r notifications_enabled 1 notification_interval 10080.00 first_notification_delay0.00 stalking_optionsn process_perf_data 1 failure_prediction_enabled 1 retain_status_information 1 retain_nonstatus_information1 } -- Come build with us!

Do I have to do define it anywhere? notification_interval != notification_period Try notification_interval 0 instead of notification_period 0. notification_interval:This directive is used to define the number of time units to wait before re-notifying a contact that this service is still in a non-OK state. Unless you've changed the interval_length directive from the default value of 60, this number will mean minutes.

Nagios is trying to send notifications using the command you've defined, according to the logs. You haven't provided the definition for that command (notify-service-by-email), but I assume it's trying to send an email.

Re: [Nagios-users] FW: Not sending e-mails
I agree - I've found a few other oddities while messing around with Postfix. Gotta fix those first.

On a complete postfix setup you should have a command sendmail - Postfix to Sendmail compatibility interface which I believe /bin/mail will use. So the issue here isn't really Nagios-specific, since you're unable to send mail with /bin/mail outside of Nagios as well. If you fix the email setup, Nagios notifications will be delivered just fine, and Postfix setup is too off topic for this list :-) Good luck!

Did you try the two notification mail commands I sent over? Postfix uses different syntax than what comes in the default Nagios config, and the ones I'm using are from a functional Ubuntu/Postfix setup.
