[Nagios-users] trouble with statusmap.cgi
Hi people, No doubt you have seen this many times before, for some reason statusmap.cgi was not in the sbin folder when I first installed Nagios, I have since installed gdlib & its pre-requisites and overlaid Nagios but I still don't have a statusmap.cgi The only thing that shows about Gdlibs in config.log is: GDLIBS='-lgd -lz -lm -lpng' And the only warnings I receive in Config.log are: conftest.c:26: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function 'exit' conftest.c:75: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function 'exit' conftest.c:82: warning: conflicting types for built-in function 'strdup' conftest.c:83: warning: conflicting types for built-in function 'strstr' conftest.c:104: warning: conflicting types for built-in function 'snprintf' Has anyone any ideas?

True, the `max_check_attempts' and `retry_check_interval' settings for the service won't affect your problem.

At first glance it seems that there was no C compiler to
build the program install, but I double checked and the packages are there.

Re: [Nagios-users] check_megaraid fails in Nagios 2.0 on Debian 3.1
I got the plugin here: http://www.ibiblio.org/john/megaraid/ Nagios was installed via apt-get. I guess I could recompile it from source though I'd like to not do that since I have a number of Nagios servers in use. I did try adding the line "$my runtimedir;" before the first use of the variable but the error persisted. I will try some other things. Any other suggestons are welcome. :-) On 5/22/06, Marc Powell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:nagios-users- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gary Danko > Sent: Monday, May 22, 2006 12:28 PM > To: Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [Nagios-users] check_megaraid fails in Nagios 2.0 on Debian 3.1 > > We have two Nagios 1.3 servers that sit on Debian 3.1 machines.

I don't use it but have some suggestions. Since this is a non-standard plugin you should provide pointers to download the specific version you are using when asking for help. There are a couple of check_megaraid plugins that I've found but none use the variable $runtimedir. It would appear that this plugin is not written to be compatible with the Nagios embedded Perl interpreter. I would hazard a guess that your 1.3 installations were compiled without the ePN but your nagios-2 installation was. This should have been a problem for 1.3 as well since the plugin requirements are the same. You can either -- 1) recompile your nagios-2 installations without the ePN. 2) modify the plugin to be compatible with the ePN - This may be as simple as adding 'my $runtimedir;' somewhere before the first use of that variable. - other guidelines to make perl plugins compatible with the ePN are available here -- http://nagiosplug.sourceforge.net/developer-guidelines.html#PERLPLUGIN -- Marc --- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

[Nagios-users] Troubles compiling with C
Can anyone help us with installing Nagios?
At first glance it seems that there was no C compiler to
build the program install, but I double checked and the packages are there. When
running the configure script per the Installation Directions we get the
following error:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] nagios]# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/nagios
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c

Here is the config.log file:

Re: [Nagios-users] Host retry interval
HOST check mode is initiated once the service reaches the HARD state, which comes on the last allowed check as defined by max_check_attempts for that service. Ergo, if you set your service checks max to 15, after 15 minutes (assuming your delay is 60 seconds) your service will hit a HARD CRITICAL, and host checks will fire. /eli On 5/22/06 12:45 PM, "Kyle Tucker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks Eli, > > According to the docs, "Nagios checks the status of a host is when a service > check results in a non-OK status.".

Re: [Nagios-users] Host retry interval
Thanks Eli, According to the docs, "Nagios checks the status of a host is when a service check results in a non-OK status.". Is that when it reaches a HARD state after all iterations of max_check_attempts are done or as soon as it goes to non-OK (SOFT) state? If the latter, which seems to be when it's kicking off host checks, I don't see how increasing the service checks will help. > I'd suggest NOT taking this action at the host level; reason being that all > service checks are halted for the duration of this non-parallelized > action...

Re: [Nagios-users] Host retry interval
I'd suggest NOT taking this action at the host level; reason being that all service checks are halted for the duration of this non-parallelized action... You want to avoid doing a host check until absolutely necessary. Suggest increasing the max_check_attempts on the SERVICE to a larger number, this will avoid impacting the monitoring system as a whole. /eli On 5/22/06 11:45 AM, "Kyle Tucker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > I have many hosts that are constantly giving me DOWN/UP state as they > are unreachable for certain periods.

[Nagios-users] Host retry interval
Hi, I have many hosts that are constantly giving me DOWN/UP state as they are unreachable for certain periods. In an attempt to give the system more time to become available, I increased the max_check_attempts from 2 to 5. At 2 the interval between retry attempts was 10 seconds. Now at 5, the interval is 7 seconds. I'd like to have this interval higher for some hosts, but there's a real scary note on the hosts check_interval option to not use it if you can help it. Is this my only option or is there a better way? I am also following the thread titled "Workaround for 'Host DOWN' false-positives" but I don't clearly see how to set that up.

I can see how hostgroup escalations work, if there is a host-level problem.If I've got, say, "smtp" service definitions for three hosts, do I really have to have three different serviceescalation declarations -- one for each service definition -- to escalate each one? Is there no way whatsoever to simply say anything with service_description "SMTP" and host_name of "*" or something?Seems really ... well ... sucky, that for every host/service declaration I'd have to explicitly have an independent escalation declaration as well.Cheers,D --Derek J.

I don't use it but have some suggestions. Since this is a non-standard plugin you should provide pointers to download the specific version you are using when asking for help. There are a couple of check_megaraid plugins that I've found but none use the variable $runtimedir. It would appear that this plugin is not written to be compatible with the Nagios embedded Perl interpreter. I would hazard a guess that your 1.3 installations were compiled without the ePN but your nagios-2 installation was. This should have been a problem for 1.3 as well since the plugin requirements are the same. You can either -- 1) recompile your nagios-2 installations without the ePN. 2) modify the plugin to be compatible with the ePN - This may be as simple as adding 'my $runtimedir;' somewhere before the first use of that variable. - other guidelines to make perl plugins compatible with the ePN are available here -- http://nagiosplug.sourceforge.net/developer-guidelines.html#PERLPLUGIN -- Marc --- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

RE: [Nagios-users] check_megaraid fails in Nagios 2.0 on Debian 3.1
If you're using embedded Perl (and it appears you are), the requirement for plugins in Nagios 2 are fairly stringent, and they'll fail if not coded properly. http://nagiosplug.sourceforge.net/developer-guidelines.html#PERLPLUGIN This plugin probably fails requireent #4.

Re: [Nagios-users] Monitoring Windows servers
On Mon, 22 May 2006, Oliver Marshall wrote: I have spent the last week looking for a monitoring solution. I have been assessing Nagios, Zabbix, and Servers Alive for Windows. Servers Alive may seem perfect, though its clearly more expensive than the rest. I think it may have an issue monitoring clients servers on other domains etc as it lacks some form of remote authentication. Zabbix I will admit is my preference as it's all web based. It's windows agent means that I can get local info and, more importantly, run a script on the client server and get the results. However, the documentation is truly terrible and the Windows side is even worse. The last thing I need is someone to cock-up a monitoring setup and then never get informed of any issues. Nagios is clearly the daddy when it comes to network monitoring, though it does require a level of linux knowledge that we just don't have here (ssh access to setup the config for starters). I know that there is a web based tool for setting up the monitoring config (Nagat or something) but that's now not being supported or added to, and it's policy to not use out-of-support products. I know there is also a 3rd party Windows Agent that can run on the servers and monitor local events, though it doesn't have scripting support, and it's not part of the main build, and hasn't been updated for sometime. Does anyone have anything useful I should consider when looking at Nagios ? Any other web based config tools that can be used? Any other windows agents etc ? Any comments on my opinions so far ? When looking at Nagios and specially the plugins world, there are a couple place to look. There is the main nagios-plugins distribution which covers a core set of functionality and there are a host of additional plugins that have been contributed and are available via nagios-exchange. Both have active support on the mailing lists. For Windows - you have a couple of choices: NSClient/NSClient++/NC_Net and NRPE_NT. NRPE_NT allows you to write Windows scripts and extend the pluging capability. A number for wmi scripts are hosted on nagios-exchange. -- -sg --- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

Your machines have way too few RAM. It is totally not possible to run 1800 checks on a 512MB machine in a timely manner. Think about this: Everytime Nagios starts a check, it forks a child, which forks the check. Nagios usually uses up 26MB total memory per process, the check another 5MB maybe. When running 1800 checks, we are speaking of spreading out 55 GIGAbytes of needed Ram on 512 MB real Ram. Imagine how often that works without having the machines doing a shitload of swapping and io-wait. I really cannot imagine how such a machine can NOT swap when running Nagios. Are you totally sure that you did not make a mistake when checking the machine? Here's a lineup of our dedicated Nagios server, which is a minimal install of RHES4 with only Nagios/Apache running on it (and the HP Insightmanager tools and TSM backup client, but that should not reall matter that much ;)) : top - 11:48:52 up 69 days, 19:10, 1 user, load average: 0.75, 0.70, 0.67 Tasks: 53 total, 2 running, 51 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Cpu(s): 9.3% us, 4.3% sy, 0.0% ni, 62.5% id, 23.9% wa, 0.0% hi, 0.0% si Mem: 3116384k total, 2341696k used, 774688k free,55188k buffers Swap: 6291448k total, 144k used, 6291304k free, 2148772k cached This is a HP DL380, 3,6Ghz Xeon with 3GB of Ram and a Raid5. It is currently running "only" 120 hosts with around 500 checks, but those are in a high frequency schedule - ~400 checks per minute - as those are the company-critical services. Therefor it is under real pressure as you can see from the 2.3GB Mem usage and the 0.75 load with only 500 checks. But I think it is kinda comparable to your triple amount of checks. You should really, really upgrade the ram in the machines. In my opinion that would solve most of your problems, as I imagine you have a lot of io-wait on this machine (which you can check with an uptodate top by the way ;)) regards Sascha -- Sascha Runschke Netzwerk Administration IT-Services ABIT AG Robert-Bosch-Str. 1 40668 Meerbusch Tel.:+49 (0) 2150.9153.226 Mobil:+49 (0) 173.5419665 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.abit.net http://www.abit-epos.net - Sicherheitshinweis zur E-Mail Kommunikation / Security note regarding email communication: http://www.abit.net/sicherheitshinweis.html --- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

This was only a quick example! $SERVICESTATETYPE$ gets the state type ( HARD/SOFT ) So you can exit with a CRITICAL state if your service is CRITICAL/HARD. This is not a "ready to run" solution but i think its a possible way. Jörg pgpaYcIeU9xpN.pgp Description: PGP signature

Do you have it tested? I do not think it will work. The goal is to reflect the field "last_hard_state", not the field "current_state". "SERVICESTATEID" unfortunately corresponds to "current_state" while "last_hard_state" has no corresponding macro. If you think about the problem, its goal was to delay the host-status-change after stabilizing the state in many attempts, this goal has no opportunity to use the immediately changing "current_state" field. In fact my first version of the Perl script was using "current_state" and IRL it just did not work. It would be fine to provide macro for "last_hard_state" in the next release.

RE: Vedr.: [Nagios-users] Monitoring Windows servers
Thanks Thomas, Yep you are right about assessing the needs. There is a careful balancing act between costs and features and man-hours. I don't mind the people here learning more Linux skills, it's certainly no bad thing, but my general belief is that the time spent implementing a project shouldn't be more than the time gained by using it ! :) It would be good if Nagios released a pre-built virtual machine image, or even better a pre-created nagios disti which can install in one go and just start up, like IPCop or Smoothwall. I know there is a Nagios "Live" cd which boots from the cd, but you can't save any changes between reboots easily.

[Nagios-users] large text in nagios.cmd
Hello, I have a problem with nagios I use a lot of passive services and I have some scripts that write a process_service_check_result into the nagios.cmd file and also log before writing into the cmd file. The length of the written line is variable, and sometimes it can be verry verry long. All the passive services are volatile. Usually after the line is written in the cmd file nagios logs an external_command_process_service_check_result, then aservice_alert and then a service_notification. A few days ago something strange happened: -For one specific passive service that has one specific script writing Nagios stopped logging the external command, the service alert and the service notification for one specific service only. -The script keeps writing data into nagios.cmd and log files (as I did a manual debug) -All other passive services that have scripts writing lines into nagios.cmd work fine. -The status data is shown in the web interface but I receive no email alert. I use Nagios 1.2 Thank you for your help Stephane --- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
