I already have nsclient++ in place, and I’m using the checkCounter command in nrpe. The main issue at this point is the counter in question returns a value in scientific notation, which isn’t very readable for non-scientists. Here’s the command and response: ./check_nrpe -H 192.168.197.183 -p 5666 -c checkCounter -a Counter:PrivBytes=\\Process(ProductATasksService)\\Private Bytes ShowAll OK: PrivBytes: 2.38641e+08 Is there an option to convert the format to human readable? If not I might have to write something to convert it which might be a bad idea anyway, since I don’t see performance data coming from the plugin either and I write the performance data to a sql backend. I figured I would toss the question out to the list to see if others had run into this before. Thanks, James Whittington - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

I am doing some researching around NDOUtils too, 'cause I'll need Nagios to watch over Service Level Agreement thresholds.

Re: [Nagios-users] Plugin time out
Hi Sean, If it's a standard plugin (from nagios-plugins), you can normally use the -t option in your check command definition to set the timeout to 300 seconds (i.e. 5 minutes.) E.g. /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ping -H [IP address] -w 1000,20% -c 2000,50% -t 300 Andy.

I believe the host would have to have a static IP to get this to work.
Otherwise, you would have to change these entries each time the IP
address changed.
I have a router at home and run NAGIOS, but have it set to where
anything at 192.168.1.100 is a dynamic IP and everything below it is
static. My two boxes that I monitor have static IP addresses so that
Nagios (amongst other things) can work properly.

We use DNS together with DHCP for our clients (and actually some
of the servers as well). The idea is that the DHCP client reports
its hostname for update of our own DNS server. In the service address
field we use the host name, not the IP address. In DHCP/DNS lingo this
is called Dynamic DNS Update (DDNS).
Hope this helps

with a status of Service is not scheduled to be checked. I manually

but the status doesn't change.
Here is what I submit :

Below is an example of my service:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Nagios-users] Scheduling queue falling behind.
I'm not sure this is the right place to ask this, but I've been trying to figure out why the scheduling queue on my nagios server is always 20-30 minutes behind the current time. What I mean by that is the next check item is 20-30 minutes past the current time. I have 49 servers and 3 checks per server (ping, a process check, and syslog-ng(passive). I've tried tweaking all the settings for scheduling checks and only seem to make it worse. I'm currently running version 2.5. I didn't think that it would run into problems with this few since I've seen 300+ servers with 1000+ service checks. Am I just missing something?

[Nagios-users] Quick Question
I have been working with nagios for a few years now, but I have never really understood how Nagios decides to retry host checks. I understand that service checks have a check and retry interval and you can hard code a check interval for host checks(if you want to kill your performance...), but when nagios detects that a host has entered a problem state, how often does it retry the host check between each check attempt. Currently I am running Nagios 2.5 on CentOS 4.4 For my real-world issue, I have some nortel VPN's that seem somewhat slow to re-negotiate their connections. I currently have all hosts using a template that has 5 max check attempts. It seems that the only way to delay a Hard-Down notification for these VPN's would be to increase the max-check attempts for these hosts. The only problem is that I have no way of correlating the retry check interval with max check attempts to determine my acceptable detected downtime for these hosts before issuing notifications. The other option would be to remove the host-check command for these VPN's and just alert on a service for check_icmp that is configured the way I want it. -Doug - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Re: [Nagios-users] Passive checks.... Got It
When executing the submit_check_result, quotes need to be around the
trap name and plugin output. Like so...
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/eventhandlers/submit_check_result
(servername) Short term alloc failed 1 $3 requests for short term
memory could not be granted on server $1
Nagios then recognized the command and changed the status and sent a
notification.

Assuming this is Nagios 2.x, you don't have active_checks_enabled 1
in
your service definition (active checks are not enabled.)

Re: [Nagios-users] Scheduling queue falling behind.
Hey folks this is Trevor here, While i used to have a lot of nagios deployments for clients i did have these issues more than one. I had about 25-30 servers and all the checks on these servers would be way behind the actual scheduled time. It would wary from a few mins to hours at length. Never got around to solving the prob. Thought i had a bad config but i too had the same settings like Robert here. Was baffled as to why was nagios delaying the checks. The box wasnt topping out and the network wasnt an issue either. I have found such issues when running nagios with a huge number of metrics being monitored. 400-500 in total. Am not sure if this helps..but this is precisely what i too went through.

That can also cause backups in service checks. Otherwise, you're right -- that number of checks shouldn't be an issue. I'm looking at a box right now that's monitoring over 1,000 hosts with about 11,000 service checks, and the next scheduled check is always shown at the current time.

Re: [Nagios-users] Scheduling queue falling behind.
I had this problem and Jason describes one work-around to it (making host checks complete as fast as possible). My solution was to disable all host checks (my latency was still too high even with fast host checks). My understanding is that Nagios must complete the host checks of a down host before ANY service checks on any host are performed. If a host is down and your checks are configured to run over X number of minutes Y times then you are stalled for that long. If you have multiple hosts down then you can just multiply your latency. Prove this to yourself by going in to each configured host that you have that is down and disabling the host checks. Your service checks should come right up to time.

[Nagios-users] spending time with nagios to finetune
Hello nagios users. We run about 50 hosts with approx 400 services to check (webservice apache/mail/mysql/mysql_replica/ftp/load/procs/disks/mailq/temp/backups). Spending a lot of time to fine tune nagios, every day nearly 15-60 min , still we have 5 ~ 20 notifications a day. I have some questions, how you run nagios. How much time do you spend a day or week to run nagios ? How much notifications a day do you have ? Must be every notify a real allert or do you also have 80% notifications just for an annoying mobile telephone ring. Would be interesting to hear your idea how you run nagios. Nagios helped me a lot with uptime on my servers. No diskfull errors, no unknown downtime anymore and more happy customers. I'ts Better to spend time on nagios than fixing problems.

Re: [Nagios-users] Scheduling queue falling behind.
Now I feel like a Noobie!!Parallelizing checks was disabled.

What I mean by that is the next check item is 20-30 minutes past the current time. I have 49 servers and 3 checks per server (ping, a process check, and syslog-ng(passive). I've tried tweaking all the settings for scheduling checks and only seem to make it worse. I'm currently running version 2.5. I didn't think that it would run into problems with this few since I've seen 300+ servers with 1000+ service checks. Am I just missing something?

Re: [Nagios-users] Request new functionality: Off Hours state.
What we need / would like is a per-service and per-host configuration option that allows a host or service to enter an Off hours state in the CGI displays. (Or perhaps there should also be a global option for this?) The way we do this is via a small modification to the status.cgi script, so that there is an extra filter option which only displays things currently within their alerting window (its an extra flag in the bitfield options to serviceprops and hostprops). So, with this flag set, the screen will only show items which are currently able to send out alerts. Works well for us - I can send a copy of the modified status.c if you want, but we're using nagios 1.4...
