Re: [Nagios-users] Monarch vs. Fruity GUIs (was) which nagios config gui are you using?

You must be mistaken.. fruity only supports nagios 2.x, from the fruity

REQUIREMENTS:
Nagios v2.0
- Nagios v1.x support is no longer supported.
- You can import v1.x configs, however.

Both can be used stand-alone: that is, Monarch works with Nagios even if 
you choose not to implement the rest of GroundWork Open Source.

[Nagios-users] howto prevent notifications on network outages

[Rene Fertig]

Hi.

If a network with e.g. 10 hosts becomes unreacable because the router to this 
network fails, nagios recognize a netwok outage. I get 1 DOWN notification 
for the router and by and by 10 UNREACHABLE notification for the hosts.

How do I prevent these 10 notifications best? Better by setting up 
host-dependencies (and how) or better by configure the hosts in host.cfg not 
to send unreachable notification (set notification_options to "d,r,f" instead 
of "d,u,r,f").
Am I right with my assumption, that nagios only mark a host as unreachable if 
its parent host is down (I've searched the documentation but didn't find a 
description about that)? If not, the latter way wouldn't work propperly.

And is there a posibility to generate a "network outage" notification?

Bye, Rene

Hi,

I also had this problem for a while, but it seems to have settled down.
 I ran it under a debugger for a few days and the damn thing refused to
crash!  :-)

I'd question the use of FC4 strictly from a lifetime approach. With
FC5 out now, core 4 has about 6 months left. a RHEL 4 rebuild like
centos or scientific linux will last you until 2012.  As to your
question of installs, you can choose the minimum install, and then use
yum to get everything else if you use the Extras package. That's a
fine course of action. Nagios doesn't need much beyond fping, perl,
net-snmp-utils and httpd.

For nagios specifically this doesn't really matter. For server
maintenance standards it depends on your goals. A RHEL rebuild is
designed to be stable and provide several years of enterprise service
where 'new' isn't always what you want. Fedora, gentoo and others move
more rapidly. For me, rapid movement isn't what I want in a machine
for monitoring. I want it to last, and provide a baseline for
everything else.

Indeed, and such a thing is easy. But kickstarts are generally for
mass repetitive installs, or machines that are rebuilt quickly. In
most environments, this doesn't describe the machine you're using for
monitoring others.

The nagios documentation is very much generic *nix instruction, and is
quite thorough and very good. It's the generic nature of it though
that leads to the discussion. I recommend that people follow the
packaging method of their distribution of choice as much as possible.
If you use an rpm based system, use or make an rpm of nagios. If
you're a debian fan, make or use a deb of nagios. This simplifies the
overall system maitenance requirements and you can use the same tools
for every package. If you work in an environment like I do that
requires software audits periodically, rpm and other package tools
make it easier than saying "Well some are over here, and there are
some others over in this general area".

Yes, but that's because I didn't document them. My guide was meant to
be taken with the nagios documentation, and I only mentioned what I
felt people needed to know to get nagios off the ground.

The nagios rpm I describe has things in:
/etc/httpd/conf.d/nagios  -> the included apache config for
authentication/access control.
/etc/nagios, /etc/rc.d/init.d/nagios to start and stop the nagios
service,  /usr/bin/ where the nagios and nagiosstats binaries are,
/usr/lib/nagios for plugins and the cgis, /usr/share/doc/nagios and
/usr/share/nagios for the documentation and web interface.

And distribution type customizations, similar to how apache is set up
on rhel,fedora etc.

Yeah. I have a typo in there. Thanks for catching it, I'm fixing it now.

My doc was just to cover the rpm based approach, and to work with the
existing documentation. If it got you thinking then that's what
matter

[Nagios-users] Errors in my log since upgrade to 2.1

[Gabriel Matthews]

I upgraded to Nagios 2.1 over the weekend, and since then, I've been 
having some problems.  It runs fine during the day, handles 
notifications fine, everything works great.  When I come in the next 
day, the process has stopped, and the log file is full of this:


[1144102973] Warning: The check of service 'ping' on host 'pmad-sw-01' 
could not be performed due to a fork() error.  The check will

 be rescheduled.
[1144102973] Warning: The check of service 'ping' on host 'pkc-rt-01' 
could not be performed due to a fork() error.  The check will

be rescheduled.
[1144102973] Warning: The check of service 'ping' on host 'pcc-sw-a9'

[1144102973] Warning: The check of service 'ping' on host 
'evvlinlwt-ert-01' could not be performed due to a fork() error.  The 
check will be rescheduled.



And I mean full.. I monitor 87 hosts / 171 services, and it makes that 
log file a monster to dig through to find anything besides these errors.


My 'ping' check is as follows:

# 'check_ping' command definition
define command{
command_namecheck_ping
command_line$USER1$/check_ping -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w $ARG1$ 
-c $ARG2$ -p 3

}

And

[EMAIL PROTECTED] libexec]# ./check_ping -help
check_ping (nagios-plugins 1.4.2) 1.49


Any ideas?

The ID and group you start the Nagios
process with must have full permissions on the file that needs executed
as well as the directory. I usually have NAgios and the group own the directory

Not without the rest of the error that you chopped off. What's the
'' part? That's probably the most useful bit of information. You've
been on the list long enough to know we need more information than that
;)

Can you run restart-http as the nagios user? Show us the command and
service definition. Verify that you're using full paths for commands
used within restart-http. Detail what restart-http is doing
specifically.

Have you looked at the output of ./configure --help? There

[Nagios-users] ORACLE instance and CHECK_NRPE: No output returned from daemon

[Sandeep Narasimha Murthy]

Hello,

My command is invoking a script which verifies the state of an Oracle instance. 
My problem is when I invoke this command, I get a 
CHECK_NRPE: No output returned from daemon   Error. The problem has to be with 
invoking this script because if I substitute the code in the script with just 
an echo, it works fine.

I tried implementing what I had posted below earlier on but it doesn't work in 
this case.

Any ideas/ suggestions ??

thanks

Hi again,

I solved the problem and thought I should share this here..

The reason I was getting an Unable to read Output error was because the output 
generated by the called script was not being deciphered by nagios. I had some 
java commands in the script and possibly Nagios couldn't invoke them..

I solved the issue by creating a new script which then invoked the main script 
and then read its contents back to nagios.

Hi all,

I installed a new script in a remote server but on trying to invoke it
from my Nagios host with the command : 

./check_nrpesun -H 192.168.5.10  -p 5666 -t 5 -c check_wlheap

I get a "NRPE: Unable to read output " message.

Now, before anybody suggests that I check the file and directory
permissions, I have already done that and confirmed and reconfirmed that
the script has the proper permissions. :)

I have a number of scripts running on this remote server and all of them
run fine except for this one. All have the same permissions and are
configured Ok in the nrpe.cfg.

Is there anything else I should check for ?

TIA,

Does the NRPE user have privileges to execute the script? Does
the script load all of its environmental dependencies (there is
no .profile loaded under NRPE)?

[Nagios-users] integrating swatch with nagios

[tomvo]

Hi,

I'm trying to integrate swatch in nagios (via passive checks, I want 
swatch as a reaction to a 'hit' run the submit_check_result into a passive 
check).

But I'm having a lot of problems with the commandline parameters. for 
example, swatch offers the $_ parameter containing the entire line from 
e.g. a solaris message file. But these files then to contain characters 
that are interpreted by the shell such as [ and ' and whatever.

Basicly, I want to search a logfile for a regular expression, and if 
there's a match, I want the entire line to be sent to nagios (preferrably 
via a passive check).
I do not want to use the nagios plugin checklog because it's too kludgy 
for my taste.

How do you integrate logfile parsing in to nagios ? I've installed SEC 
also (http://simple-evcorr.sourceforge.net) but it appears to be far too 
complex for my needs.


Thanks for your input on this matter.


regards,
Tom.

[Nagios-users] check_service_freshness on central/distributed

[Kyle Tucker]

I've set up a distributed server with freshness checks
for each service being submitted passively set to 1 on
the central server. But in the main nagios.cfg on each
server (central and distributed), what should the global 
check_service_freshness parameter be set to? I don't see 
anything definitive on the page for setting up 
distributed server. Thanks.

I tried implementing what I had posted below earlier on but it doesn't work in 
this case.

Does the NRPE user have privileges to execute the script? Does
the script load all of its environmental dependencies (there is

I would tend to second the 'check your environment variables' 
suggestion.  Oracle (and binaries linked to oracle, include DBI::Perl 
etc). usually requires at least the following env. vars set to function):


ORACLE_SID
ORACLE_HOME
LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Good luck,
David

[Nagios-users] Summary Overview

[Brian Hellman]

Back in the 1.2 release I asked about a feature to email me a status 
summary of what is happening on the network. Someone replied saying that 
it should be implemented in 2.0, however I can't find anything about it. 
Does someone know if this feature is implemented or if it is still in 
the process?

I don't see anything in the external commands documentation, but is
there a particular CGI that outputs what you would like to see in an
email?

[Nagios-users] Correction: Monarch vs. Fruity GUIs (was) which nagios config gui are you using?

Taylor Dondich, Fruity's developer, and several list members have pointed out that Fruity is for Nagios 2.x only, not 1.x only as in my previous post.  Sorry for any confusion.Peter MuiOpen Source Community AdvocateGroundWork Open Source139 Townsend Street, Suite 100San Francisco, CA 94107[EMAIL PROTECTED]+1 415 992 4573Begin forwarded message:From: Robert Story <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>Date: March 28, 2006 7:10:22 PM PSTTo: "Dany Allard" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>Cc: Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] which nagios config gui are you using?On Tue, 28 Mar 2006 16:54:00 -0700 Dany wrote:DA> We use monarch from groundwork http://www.itgroundwork.com/They also make fruity, don't they?

[Nagios-users] Context help?

[Hugo van der Kooij]

Hi,

I noticed there is a context help but the isn't any data in it. As I am a
lousy programmer I will try to update this section and present you with
the results.

Just curious how popular the concept of this feature is to see how high I
will scale it on my to-do list.

I will dump some experimental ones on http://hvdkooij.xs4all.nl/NAGIOS/
for thos who wish to test them. Just remove my initials from the filename
again to fit them in your Nagios system. (Mainly a security feature so I
will not overwrite in an upgrade.)

Hugo.

[Nagios-users] Nagios 2.1 problems.

[Marcel Mitsuto Fucatu Sugano]

Watching the list activity gives me an impression about the new 2.1
release of Nagios. I have just downgraded to 2.0 version because of some
problems with retention setup, and I am also not confortable with the
fact of many reports on service flapping detection problems.

Is there anyone having status retention problem, or i am alone with
that? Or, should I ask, Is there anyone with retention setup using
Nagios 2.1?

Thanks in advance.

Marcel.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios 2.1 problems.

[Eli Stair]

What issues are you having with retention, I haven't noticed any posts 
to that effect on the list.  If you search, you'll find the issues I've 
had with state retention.  There is at least one other user having 
(nearly) identical issues to mine, I'd like to know if you've had 
similar problems.
