Re: [Nagios-users] Negate binary file
Hi,
Thank you Richard. I get it.
I write this mail to show everybody how I get to use the negative binary
file (if someone don't know how to do it, here you have)
As Richard tell us, you only get the negative result on the Nagios console.
If you launch the ./negate check_xx, you always get the check_xxx result,
not the negative.
So, you have to put the command 'wrapped' in the negate command in the
nagios
configuration like that, in the checkcommands.cfg, for example:
In this example, I use the check_http command.
define command{
command_namecheck_http_negate
command_line$USER1$/negate /opt/nagios/libexec/check_http -H
10.190.8.xxx -p 80 -u url -s string
}
Remember that you have to indicate the complete path of the command (in this
case, check_http), and put everything between
Good Luck!!
And thank you very much, Richard
Yolanda

nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.netHi,

Am I doing something wrong?
Hello Yolanda,
No, your not doing something wrong, your just confused ;-) let me explain:
The OK you see is the exit status of the check_http plugin, which is
indeed: OK. If you check the status of the negate with echo $? (directly
after you issued the command) you should see a response of '2', which is
the exitstatus known as CRITICAL.
Nagios interprets the negate exitstatus and not the exitstatus of the
command you 'negated'.
Just put your command 'wrapped' in the negate command in your nagios
configuration and it will show up as a CRITICAL when the plaintext-error
page is shown.
Good Luck!
Richard
I check:
./check_http -H 10.190.8.xxx -p 80 -u url -s ERROR
And I get an OK
Then, now I want the opposite, so I do:
./negate check_http -H 10.190.8.xxx -p 80 -u url -s ERROR
And I get an OK again. If I add the complete path:
./negate /opt/nagios/libexec/check_http -H 10.190.8.xxx -p 80 -u url
-s
ERROR
I continuous get an OK...
What is wrong?
Thanks

[Nagios-users] nagios unable to set threshold for warning and critical alert
I am trying to monitor Microsoft Exchange 2003 SMTP Remote Queue Length using Nagios check_nt plug-in like ./check_nt -H 192.168.x.x -p 1248 -s password -v Counter -l \\SMTP Server(_Total)\\Remote Queue Length The above work fine but I would like nagios to indicate a warning when SMTP remote queue is 50 and critical when 100 mails, is queued on the remote queue.

[Nagios-users] Active vs. passive checks; host won't check
Hi, I'm a relative newbie to Nagios though I have v2.5 set up, running, and a couple dozen hosts defined. I set it up using Monarch. Nagios is being used to monitor external hosts (that are not running Nagios) for uptime and POP/HTTP/etc. services using check-host-alive and check_http, etc. Parent relationships are defined (internal router-ext. router-host). I have two questions, and the first may help to answer the second. I've never been too sure about the difference between active and passive checks. What is the difference? Is there a correct time to use one or the other? I have one host (a router) that will not check. Status=PENDING (Host has not been checked yet) forever. Active and passive checks are both enabled. It is a router, so there are no other services. Also I used Monarch to clone it from another router's host definition that was working. Any ideas on why it wouldn't be checking? I can ping it's IP.

I've never been too sure about the difference between active and passive checks. What is the difference? Is there a correct time to use one or the other? Active checks are initiated by nagios itself. The plugin runs on your nagios machine and actively checks the status of some service. Passive checks are received by nagios from an external source and not initiated by nagios. Passive checks are often utilized in distributed monitoring where you may have one or more other nagios installations performing checks and sending the results of those checks back to a central nagios server. Another use for passive checks would be to receive check results from a script that is running on a machine that isn't directly accessible by nagios due to a firewall or other circumstance. I have one host (a router) that will not check. Status=PENDING (Host has not been checked yet) forever. Active and passive checks are both enabled. It is a router, so there are no other services. Also I used Monarch to clone it from another router's host definition that was working. Any ideas on why it wouldn't be checking? I can ping it's IP. Under normal configurations, hosts are never checked until a service on the host fails. No service, no host checks ever. You must define at least one service for every host if you want it to be checked. This requirement is likely to change with nagios-3. -- Marc - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

Thanks to all the respondees. I'd vote for that change as it seems counterintuitive to me to not check the status of something that Nagios knows is important (parent or grandparent to all other hosts), and also the average router doesn't really run a service IMHO, though ping would have to work to check the status anyway, I think. Sounds like I need to set up a host profile for routers that has at least the ping service. As for active/passive, what you all describe makes sense. It's just not documented that I could find.

[Nagios-users] Enabling active checks
This may be more of a Monarch question, but one thing that probably helped confuse me about active checks are that if I have a host defined in Monarch with Active checks enabled checked, within Nagios itself the Host Detail and Information pages seems to show new hosts with Active Checks:DISABLED. I can click the Enable active checks of this host link but I'm not sure why or if I have to? I say if because on the one router to which I just added the Ping service, it has now been checked and the status is UP yet it shows Active Checks:DISABLED.

Hi List,
Does anyone know of an ascii/text/curses frontend to nagios.
(dialog based maybe?)
I have a situation were I don't have other than ssh access
to the box and need to be able to get some sort of overview
from a textbased frontend to nagios once logged in.
Failing that, any ideas?
Is there a published API for the frontend?
Any thoughts appreciated.

/Lars
Other people have mentioned console tools so I won't bother.
But did you know that with ssh access you have access to every port on the
remote machine?
SSH(1)
-L [bind_address:]port:host:hostport
Specifies that the given port on the local (client) host is to be
forwarded to the given host and port on the remote side. This
works by allocating a socket to listen to port on the local side,
optionally bound to the specified bind_address. Whenever a con-
nection is made to this port, the connection is forwarded over
the secure channel, and a connection is made to host port
hostport from the remote machine.
ssh -L 8080:localhost:80 your-nagios-box
http://localhost:8080/
So here you're hitting port 8080 on your desktop machine and the packets
are getting sent over your SSH connection to the HTTP port on the nagios
server.
If the HTTP server on the nagios box isn't bound to localhost you'll have
to specify (in the ssh command) the hostname or IP that it is bound to.
('netstat -tnl | grep :80' can help you find out)
Windows ssh clients such as PuTTY can also do port forwarding.
