Re: [Nagios-users] Distributed Monitoring
Yes you can. Do a google for distributed monitoring. Basically it caomes down to having the one nagios configured as a slave. It then passes all its info to the main Nagios. The services that are monitored on the slave nagios, are configured as passive on the main Nagios., but the data is still displayed with all the other active check-data on the same screen. One thing that I did: Because the data from the slave gets passed on NOT on request but passively, if the slave nagios dies, the main will not know about it. So my slave-nagios is actively checked with a ping by the main-nagios.

[Nagios-users] Using the Trending Graph
Hi, new to Nagios so please bear with me. I queried the list archives and there were some similar threads but several with no answers so I hope I have better luck. Nagios Version: 2.5, from distro binary distribution Platform: Debian Linux Sarge 3.1r4 Stable Problem: - If I run the graph with First assumed host state: Unspecified I get 100% Indeterminate - If I run the graph with First assumed host state: Host Up I get 100% Up - If I run the graph with First assumed host state: Host Down I get 100% Down - If I run the graph with First assumed host state: Unreachable I get 100% Unreachable etc.. Obviously something is not working properly. I want a trend of the different states in time so I can give my ISP some info on where the problem is and see if we can discount their failures from our bill ;-] Important note and possible lead to the root cause: I used the default logging options in my config: log_file=/var/log/nagios2/nagios.log log_rotation_method=d log_archive_path=/var/log/nagios2/archives Nevertheless, this configuration did NOT store the archives in archives directory as expected so I changed to: log_archive_path=/var/log/nagios2/ This did NOT work either because the nagios web interface was expecting log names like: nagios-01-19-2007-00.log instead of the ones nagios has been generating which are of the form: nagios.log.X.gz I decompressed all the gz files and create soft links so the web interface could display past notifications: poseidon:/var/log/nagios2# ls -l total 140 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root adm12 2007-01-22 09:54 nagios-01-19-2007-00.log - nagios.log.4 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root adm12 2007-01-22 09:53 nagios-01-20-2007-00.log - nagios.log.3 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root adm12 2007-01-22 09:52 nagios-01-21-2007-00.log - nagios.log.2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root adm12 2007-01-22 09:50 nagios-01-22-2007-00.log - nagios.log.1 -rw-r--r-- 1 nagios adm 9265 2007-01-22 11:17 nagios.log -rw-r--r-- 1 nagios adm 52767 2007-01-22 06:25 nagios.log.1 -rw-r--r-- 1 nagios adm 45689 2007-01-22 06:25 nagios.log.2 -rw-r--r-- 1 nagios adm 10469 2007-01-21 06:25 nagios.log.3 -rw-r--r-- 1 nagios adm 10419 2007-01-20 06:25 nagios.log.4 It is my guess that my log problem is related to the trending problem given some of the threads that I read on the user's mailing list archives. Any help greatly appreciated. Perhaps there is some extended documentation on the trending interface and on the log file configuration from that included in the package install?

[Nagios-users] Nagios Modification for No Host Dependency?
Hello, I have been running a fairly large Nagios setup (40,000 service checks 4500 hosts) and I wanted to see if anyone has worked on a certain problem. When nagios runs service checks and gets no response from a service check, it stops working other service checks until it can determine if that host that had the timeout is up or not. After reading the archives I know that other people have ran into this situation. The reason it puts all service checks on hold is due to the feature of dependencies. If there is a host down then nagios assumes that there could be other hosts/services dependent on that host, thus it stops checking services until it can determine if that host is up. Previous posts have indicated that this is a feature, not a bug. While I agree that this is usually the case there are some special circumstances. In my situation there are no host dependencies. I would prefer nagios to keep running service checks while it runs through the host checks to see if the service check timeout is due to the host being down. I wanted to see if there is a patch or source code modification that would take this action. Obviously I would prefer it to be something configurable in the nagios.cfg file (ignorehostdependancy=0/1) but that might be harder then just making a source code tweak. Before I went digging in the source, I wanted to see if anyone else had tried this. Jay Radcliffe - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

In your example, you could pass $CONTACTEMAIL$ to a wrapper script that split the comma separated addresses, used one as the to-addr and created appropriate -c args for the rest before calling /bin/mail. The other recommendation for multiple contacts in a group is usually easier for most. -- Marc - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

You need to figure out what is and stop it. My guess would be logrotate. Nagios must have the uncompressed files in the archive directory with the proper names (nagios handles this) for historical reporting. It is my guess that my log problem is related to the trending problem given some of the threads that I read on the user's mailing list archives. Yes, you're correct. -- Marc - Take Surveys.

Hello, In my situation there are no host dependencies. I would prefer nagios to keep running service checks while it runs through the host checks to see if the service check timeout is due to the host being down. I wanted to see if there is a patch or source code modification that would take this action. Obviously I would prefer it to be something This will be supported under nagios-3.

Yeah. The key here is that you need the user your webserver RUNS as, NOT the user you log into your webpages as. You can find this by looking at your httpd.conf file, the User directive.

[Nagios-users] Remote Linux Client Appears Down But Services Are Monitored
Hi there -- I have Nagios 2.6 with plugins 1.4.5, and NRPE 2.6 installed on a server that is running Fedora Core 5. The remote client in question is running NRPE 2.6 with plugins 1.4.5 on a Fedora Core 2 operating system. NRPE is configured to run with the -n option on the server as well as the client. NRPE is configured to run on the client via the /etc/rc.local file with the following syntax: /usr/local/nrpe/bin/nrpe -n -c /usr/local/nrpe/etc/nrpe.cfg -d The remote client appears in the web interface as down, but its monitored services appear as OK. I checked the remote client to make sure the services in question were those that were on the client, and everything appears to match up. I ran the plugins on the client from the server using check_nrpe from the command line, and the output from the commands came back without a problem. I also ran the plugins directly on the client without any problem. The web interface, for some reason, is seeing the client as down even though from the command line it appears the client is fine and easily monitored. What has caused this problem, and how can I fix it? Thanks.

[Nagios-users] Nagios CGI authentication woes.
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi folks, Just put up a new installation of Nagios (version 2.6) and it's not like I haven't done this before so there is obviously something I'm overlooking. When I set up authentication I did the same things I've done before (I think) but it ain't working. When I try to log in I see in the Apache error logs: [Mon Jan 22 16:18:26 2007] [error] [client 68.37.227.52] access to /nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi failed, reason: verification of user id 'peter' not configured, referer: http://monitor.berghold.net/side.html and in the cgi.cfg file I've done this: authorized_for_system_information=* authorized_for_configuration_information=* authorized_for_system_commands=* authorized_for_all_services=* authorized_for_all_hosts=* authorized_for_all_service_commands=* authorized_for_all_host_commands=* which is not quite where I want to be but I've gotten there through desperation at this point.

Re: [Nagios-users] Remote Linux Client Appears Down But ServicesAreMonitored
I am interpreting this to mean that the Host status for the remote host is CRITICAL but the services on the host, checked by NRPE, show as OK. If that is the case then the check_command in the host{} definition for the client does not accurately determine the status of the host. What is that check_command and does it work if you run it as the nagios user from your nagios machine? If I understand you correctly, you are referring to the check-host-alive command in the hosts.cfg file.

-Original Message- From: Kaplan, Andrew H. [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 22, 2007 3:56 PM To: Marc Powell; Nagios-Users (E-mail) Subject: RE: [Nagios-users] Remote Linux Client Appears Down But ServicesAreMonitored I am interpreting this to mean that the Host status for the remote host is CRITICAL but the services on the host, checked by NRPE, show as OK. If that is the case then the check_command in the host{} definition for the client does not accurately determine the status of the host. What is that check_command and does it work if you run it as the nagios user from your nagios machine? If I understand you correctly, you are referring to the check-host-alive command in the hosts.cfg file. I'm sorry if I sound like and idiot, but there is no check_host_alive plugin in the libexec directory. What command should I run in this case? You'll have a file with all the command{} definitions in it (typically named commands.cfg or checkcommands.cfg). One of those command{} definitions will be named 'check-host-alive'. That command definition will specify a command_line that will be run to check if the host is alive. That command_line, substituting in proper variables as required, would be the command you should be testing as the nagios user. It's probably something like define command{ command_namecheck-host-alive command_line$USER1$/check_ping -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w 3000.0,80% -c 5000.0,100% -p 1 } In which case, as the nagios user, you'd run '/path/to/nagios/libexec/check_ping -H ip or name of host here -w 3000.0,80% -c 5000.0,100% -p 1 Where ip or name of host here is the value for 'address' specified in the client host{} definition. -- Marc - Take Surveys.

[Nagios-users] separating important from non-important hosts/services on tactical overview
Hi All - I was wondering if it is possible to not include some hosts/services in the Tactical Overview page. We use Nagios to monitor mostly production resources but there are a few dev and test resources in there as well. I was wondering if it is possible to NOT have the Tactical overview page report on warning/critical states for those dev/test hosts/services? We just want that page to report for the hosts we deem important to us but we still want to monitor all the hosts/services we do now and have detailed reports in the services page.

[Nagios-users] Several map views of Nagios
I learned several commercial software of NMS could defined several views of Monitoring maps and customize it for certain need. I think it's a good idea. Let say we have hundreds of server to monitor, and it would be very crowded and quite invisible if we put all the servers in one monitoring map. So the idea is to classify the servers/network devices into several categories such as routers, servers related with App A, servers with App B. Then PIC for routers will only have to monitor the map with routers devices, the same thing applies to PIC for application A only need to monitor the map with App A servers. Is it possible for Nagios to do several map views ? Best Regards, Herman - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
