Re: [Nagios-users] nagio ping script help needed
Hi, thanks for the prompt response. I am running 2 clusters, each at a different site. What i want to accomplish is this : Cluster A is running a a service and I don't want Cluster B to start at bootup if Cluster A is running. I was thinking of using nagios to detect the active cluster at bootup and disable the local cluster. If the local cluster cannot detect the other cluster, then it will startup. if not, it stays inactive. In order not to simplify things, let's disregard the cluster. Assuming the 2 servers A and B are physically apart, but can ping each other (different subnet). Can i prevent A from starting up if B is already started using Nagios? --- Thomas Guyot-Sionnest [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On 13/06/07 01:23 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I'm currently using Redhat Enterprise Linux 4 and I've installed and configured nagios on 1 of my servers.

I've already configure Nagios as a bootup service for Linux already. Thanks in advance for any help. I don't get it. Cluster services are usually there for this kind of thing: making sure a service runs only once, or that no more than x instances are running... But now you want that king of control for the cluster services itself.. Are you trying to build a cluster of clusters??? I have no experience of RedHat cluster but I did use LinuxHA, and you would run the cluster software on every nodes no matter if the clustered services will be running there or no.

Re: [Nagios-users] VPN Monitoring
problem is, we can lose many VPNs to a node through diverse paths before a device is unreachable thus pinging something at the other end is probably not going to work as by the time the device is unreachable its far too late and customer impacting. I am really after monitoring something which reports the status of the VPN link, something like with a hardware interface where you can see if there is a physical link present or not, and observe things like flapping though for VPNs like either established or not.

Any ideas would be kindly recieved. Regards, Kerry. snip We've found the most difficult part of monitoring VPNs has been tunnel availability. Because of the way IPSec works, we cannot trust the VPN gateway's report that a tunnel is up as authoritative. The tunnel may be up from each gateway's perspective but they may be out of sync. We have resolved that problem pretty effectively for our environment. We are not using Checkpoint or Sonicwalls. Instead, we've been building highly secure VPNs for both LAN-to-LAN and Remote Access using the ISCS network security management project (http://iscs.sourceforge.net) with either SecureComputing SG devices or home grown Linux gateways. We have a script which pings across the tunnel with service dependencies of both gateways. This way, we test the real tunnel availability instead of what the gateways think is the reality. Finally, we have an agent which resets the tunnels if it does find them out of syn. As a result, even when tunnels go out of sync, the outage is usually between 30 and 180 seconds - less time than it would take us just to ascertain what was wrong. Hope that helps - John -- John A.

[Nagios-users] FW: Problems with distributed setup, master overload?
-Original Message- From: nagios-users On Behalf Of Jeffrey Lensen Sent: 10 June 2007 08:28 I recently extend our distributed Nagios setup of 1 master and 2 distributed slaves (in which the master also had a lot of checks running), to 1 master and 5 distributed slaves (in which the master does no checking at all, except for host checks). This setup had 556 hosts and roughly 7000 service checks. Ever since I modified this setup, the Nagios master host has been giving me problems. The symptoms: - When starting both Nagios and NSCA, I see NSCA accepting checks in my logfiles, but none get processed by Nagios. - After a few minutes NSCA processes are starting to build up, increasing with 5-10 processes per second. In a few minutes it reaches a few thousand processes and the machine starts hanging. - Sometimes the number of Nagios processes start increasing, instead of the NSCA processes. Same result, the machine starts hanging. I have seen similar problems, though in my case (1 master, 2 slaves, 824 hosts, 16000+ services) the queued NSCA processes are eventually flushed. However the Nagios master server also suffers from memory leaks; it eventually (after a period of 1 - 5 days) crashes with a kernel panic because there is no free memory or reaches a state where the kernel has killed all useful processes (e.g. nagios, nsca, sshd, ntpd, etc) in attempt to cure OOM (Out Of Memory) problems. Interestingly trying to strace the first daughter nsca process seems to bring everything into life and the queue of NSCA processes quickly flushes. I have tried running nagios using option -s to get configuration recommendations and nagiostats to get usage information on both master and slave servers, but they do not reveal anything useful. My current plan is to introduce 3 more slave servers as I have heard that this helps. Any comments would be helpful to me as well.

Hi, there are several easy ways to do this, one is using check_snmp_temperature.pl from nagiosexchange.org it has the right OID for DELL already inside. Or you can use snmp-get. You can see the values with snmpwalk -c yourcommunity -v 1 yourserver .1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.1.700.20 Please install the DELL OMC-package on the server, otherwise these values are not available.

Re: [Nagios-users] FW: Problems with distributed setup, master overload?
I'm not sure adding more slaves will solve the problem on the master server.. From what I've been reading on these maillists, the problem tends to be the filling of the nagios.cmd pipe. Multiple processes try to write to it (NSCA children) and multiple processes try to read from it (Nagios children). From what I understand the NSCA daemons are all waiting to access the pipe, but can't, and then start to wait. NSCA creates another child child process, which starts to wait, etc etc. Within an hour the system started swapping because of the large amount of processes (I think I actually saw it going up to 6500!) and eventually it died. In my setup this problem started showing after I added 3 slave hosts... So I'm not sure if that will fix anything... My current (temporary) solution is a small script in the crontab, which restarts the NSCA daemon every 30 minutes or so. If it can't stop normally, it does a killall -9, and then forces another start. Seems to hold up so far, but the solution isn't pretty. Jeffrey Lensen System Administrator Hyves hyves page: http://skyler.hyves.nl mail/msn: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wheeler, JF (Jonathan) wrote: -Original Message- From: nagios-users On Behalf Of Jeffrey Lensen Sent: 10 June 2007 08:28 I recently extend our distributed Nagios setup of 1 master and 2 distributed slaves (in which the master also had a lot of checks running), to 1 master and 5 distributed slaves (in which the master does no checking at all, except for host checks). This setup had 556 hosts and roughly 7000 service checks. Ever since I modified this setup, the Nagios master host has been giving me problems. The symptoms: - When starting both Nagios and NSCA, I see NSCA accepting checks in my logfiles, but none get processed by Nagios. - After a few minutes NSCA processes are starting to build up, increasing with 5-10 processes per second. In a few minutes it reaches a few thousand processes and the machine starts hanging. - Sometimes the number of Nagios processes start increasing, instead of the NSCA processes. Same result, the machine starts hanging. I have seen similar problems, though in my case (1 master, 2 slaves, 824 hosts, 16000+ services) the queued NSCA processes are eventually flushed. However the Nagios master server also suffers from memory leaks; it eventually (after a period of 1 - 5 days) crashes with a kernel panic because there is no free memory or reaches a state where the kernel has killed all useful processes (e.g. nagios, nsca, sshd, ntpd, etc) in attempt to cure OOM (Out Of Memory) problems. Interestingly trying to strace the first daughter nsca process seems to bring everything into life and the queue of NSCA processes quickly flushes. I have tried running nagios using option -s to get configuration recommendations and nagiostats to get usage information on both master and slave servers, but they do not reveal anything useful. My current plan is to introduce 3 more slave servers as I have heard that this helps. Any comments would be helpful to me as well.

Re: [Nagios-users] checking windows clients for hung state
Please always respond on list. You'll be giving experience back to the community and future readers will benefit from it. -Original Message- From: Lalita Drolia [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2007 7:46 AM To: Marc Powell Subject: RE: [Nagios-users] checking windows clients for hung state That is what I was guessing Marc that you need to check for the particular service which is causing the machine to hang. I would like to give you an example of solaris servers. They have a state called ok promot as I understand and you can ping the machine in that state but its stuck in the boot up process. So I have put a check on ssh to overcome this problem because ssh will be working only when the machine would have booted up properly and be usable. Yes, that's the kind of check I'm proposing for your windows machine. Similarly, I was wondering that can we put a check on some service on windows machines which will definetly be halted in case the machine hangs? I hope I have made myself clear and not confused you :) How can we know? We don't even know what services your windows machine is running. Is it running IIS? Does IIS respond when the machine hangs? If not, then use check_http to check IIS. Is it running DNS? Does it respond to DNS queries when the machine hangs? If not, use check_dns. Does port 139 respond when the machine hangs? If not, then use check_tcp to check that port. You'll have to perform tests such as these based on the services the machine is running to determine what's best to use. Nmap can help you determine what ports your machine is normally listening on if you don't know. If the machine is 'hung' but still responds to network tests properly then you'll need to dig further to determine what's actually broken when it's in this state and use that as a basis for your check. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

When the router fails I get a single alert as I'd expect, but it's a notice about the one particular host behind the router every time and not the router itself.

[Nagios-users] How to handle macros with \'s in them
Hello. Recently, we've started running plugins that have \'s in their
output. Specifically, the nsclient++ disk check that would report on,
say C:\.
The plugin sends output like:
C:\ - total: 3.91 Gb - used: 3.62 Gb (93%) - free 0.29 Gb (7%)
which looks fine in Nagios' web interface. However, when an alert gets
generated, all I get for the service output is
C:
We use the common notify-by-email command for notifications. I.e
define command {
command_namenotify-by-email
command_line/usr/bin/printf %b * Nagios
*\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService:
$SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTALIAS$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState:
$SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n\nAdditional
Info:\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$ | /bin/mail -s ** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ alert -
$HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ ** $CONTACTEMAIL$
}
So unless I'm mistaken, the \ in the $SERVICEOUTPUT$ gets eaten by the
/usr/bin/printf for the notification command.
A simple solution has eluded me. Has anyone found a nice way to handle
this?
Thanks

Not the most elegant way of handling it, but you could write a wrapper for
your check script that passes the check paramaters along and then strips the
\ from the output before passing it along to Nagios. The \ doesn't seem
like critical information so I don't think you'd really miss it.

Re: [Nagios-users] Debugging Nagios?
nagios.log and syslog were of no value, but I was able to build with debug (./configure --enable-DEBUGALL) and see where Nagios is forcing all checks to occur at midnight tomorrow. I've seen several posts on this with questions, but no answers.

Re: [Nagios-users] Debugging Nagios?
EUREEKA!!! Thanks to some other users for pointing this out and helping me resolve... Somehow when I converted config files from Nagios 1.x to 2.9, my timeperiods.cfg was messed up and had the 24x7 entry going from 0:00-0:00 everyday, when it should have been 0:00-24:00 everyday. This caused all my checks to be scheduled at midnight everyday. Thanks for all the help with debugging flags and config files.

Im having problems configuring Nagios 2.7, i have all the .cfg files ready to get started but when i try to initialize the nagios process i get this error message: Error: Could not create external command file '/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd'. as named pipe: (13) - Permission denied. If this file already exists and you are sure that another copy of Nagios is not running, you should delete this file. Any ideas? the nagios.cmd is supposed to be created automatically but that isn´t happening. The error indicates that the user you've configured nagios to run as, usually nagios, does not have permission to write to the directory you've configured to hold the external command file (/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/). You'll need to -- - verify the directory you've specified exists and is owned by the nagios user - the nagios user can create files within that directory - if the file exists and isn't owned by the nagios user, stop nagios, remove it, restart nagios. - if the file exists and nagios isn't running, remove it then restart nagios -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

Re: [Nagios-users] problems passing check_log into check_nrpe
Not sure what I'm doing wrong, but this command isn't working. Perhaps I'm passing in the parameter wrong? [EMAIL PROTECTED] plugins]# ./check_nrpe -H 192.168.1.156 -c check_log -F /opt/program/jboss/server/default/log/server.log \ -O /opt/program/jboss/server/default/log/serverPrev.log -q error I'm running this from my Nagios console station. NRPE is properly installed on the remote station (I tested it by passing the check_disk to the server running the NRPE client), and I'm wondering if there is some other stupid thing I missed? Is nrpe configured to allow parameters to be passed? - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML. No limits.
