[Nagios-users] Nagios 3.0b5 - ePN and perl caching
The problem I am having is with subroutines inside of perl scripts ran under the ePN. If a subroutine is defined the next time the script or similar script is executed the ePN compile fails with a duplicate subroutine reported as the problem.

Re: [Nagios-users] Comments between versions 2 and 3 of Nagios
Hi Martine, This is a known issue between Nagios 2 and 3 - it's also the case for downtime. See the following package for how-to migrate the comments from one system to another: http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/upgrading.html#nagios2x I don't know if anyone's written a script for it, but it's a 10-second job to do manually as I did it on my test Nagios 3 system.

Re: [Nagios-users] Timeouts for send_nsca program
Make sure NSCA is still accepting the results from send_nsca. to do this send over a result from the command line. reviewing your submit_check_result.sh should give you the connection details of the destination nsca, and the send_nsca --help should assist with the commanad line, This is assuming that it used to work, and would only detect that it is currently broken. but not why it broke nor how to fix it. if it is intermittent, you can trial and error to find a good Timeout value using the command line. other people would be better at diagnosing the cause of the issue.

Probably. If it's close to the documented submit_check_result, it's sending only a small bit of data and should only take a fraction of a second. I can use it to send data to two hosts in 0.011s. Maybe network problems or load on either end are causing a delay in the data transmission. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems?

Nagios would appear to be doing other things like reading config files, parsing associations, etc, before writing the cache file read by the cgi's.

I am using NDOUtils and Actually, this is a holdover from the days of nagios-1 when database support could be integrated directly into the nagios core if compiled that way. It is very different than the current ndomod support. The main program and the CGI's always use the same data storage options with 2.x+ (text file). In any event, your logs show your ndo module successfully connecting to the database immediately after restart. If you have lots of hosts/services (10's of thousands) or complex relationships between them, then that delay is likely normal for 2.x. If not, you really need to determine what nagios is doing during that window. I would recompile nagios with debugging enabled (./configure --enable-DEBUGALL) and run the daemon as a foreground process. If that wasn't interesting, I'd resort to strace to see what the process was doing at a system level. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

[Nagios-users] Nagios slow restarting/reloading possible NDOUtils issue?
I have gone over the documents again this morning and don't think I missed anything. Here is all the relevant information I can think of as well: OS: SLES 9.3 Nagios: 2.9 Plugins: 1.4.10 NRPE: 2.9 NDOUtils: 1.4.9 Addons: NagiosQL, NagVis This system is in the testing phase at this time so I can do anything that needs to be done. When I reload nagios (/etc/init.d/nagios reload) it takes upwards of a full minute to bring everything back up for viewing. In the meantime a message is displayed concerning the status of the nagios daemon: Error: Could not read host and service status information! This goes away in between 90 second and two minutes and everything begins to function normally and the system goes on that way until the next time I have to reload the configuration. The suggestion on this page are: 1. Check the Nagios log file for messages relating to startup or status data errors. [1191938804] Caught SIGHUP, restarting... [1191938804] ndomod: Shutdown complete. [1191938804] Event broker module '/usr/local/nagios/bin/ndomod.o' deinitialized successfully. [1191938804] Nagios 2.9 starting...

Always verify configuration options using the -v command-line option before starting or restarting Nagios! Done and nagios is actually running 3. Make sure you've compiled the main program and the CGIs to use the same status data storage options (i.e. text file or database). If the main program is storing status data in a text file and the CGIs are trying to read status data from a database, you'll have problems. This is where I suspect the issue might be hiding. I am using NDOUtils and did not compile nagios is any special manner. I suspect, if this is actually an error, that it is somewhere in the text files vs. DB issue. I could be insane and this just could be how long it takes nagios to HUP when using NDOUtils. No matter the issue I suspect this list is where I will find my answer.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios and cluster setup...few questions
Lacking the time and knowledge to understand monitoring clusters, I concocted a home brew web page that has the concept of a virtual service, and virtual service groups. It's all configured in an XML file. I have a virtual service called "clipcache 01", one called "clipcache 02", and so on. Easch service has two checks pulled from the nagios status file, using hostname and service description. If both are OK, then the virtual service is ok, otherwise it's critical. I then have a group called "Clipcaches", which looks at the number of virtual services, and is critical if none ar running, warning if 1 is running, or OK if 3 or more are running. A group called "live system" monitors the clipcaches group, amongst others, and exports it's status back up. It also looks for shceduled downtime and acknowlegments. Another group that's a member of "live system" is "midtier", which consists of checks of virtual service "Main midtier" (which monitors a certain process on one of 3 machines, must be on one, and one only, to be OK), "Search instance", which is OK if 2 instances are found on one of 4 machines, warning if 1, and critical if 0, and a few other checks. The program then displays this as a tree on a webpage, expanding branches with problems, it gives a quick comforting overview of the whole system, while nagios' "Service Problems" page gives a list of things to fix (which might not be of immediate importance to the overall health of the system, but need fixing anyway) It does it using Perl's "Nagios::StatusLog" module. No idea how well it scales, and I'm sure there's a better way of doing it. It's definatly a work in progress, and has made me think a lot more about defining system health. -- Paul Weaver Systems Development Engineer News Production Facilities, BBC News Work: 020 822 58109 Room 1244 Television Centre, Wood Lane, London, W12 7RJ > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf > Of Tarak Patel > Sent: 09 October 2007 14:32 > To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [Nagios-users] Nagios and cluster setup...few questions > > > Hi all, > > Here is a quick background of my current setup for monitoring: > > I have an in-house tool monitoring clusters.

[Nagios-users] Nagios and cluster setup...few questions
Hi all, Here is a quick background of my current setup for monitoring: I have an in-house tool monitoring clusters. The tool simply uses ssh to launch perl scripts on remote machines and grab all of the output to stores it on a central location in a logfile. This output is parsed and for any pre-defined tags (WARNING/CRITICAL/ERROR). If any of these tags are noticed the message is logged using syslog. The scripts residing on remote hosts is a collection of perl functions. Each one is executed one after another. Some of these functions utilize a status file from previous run to verify if state of items changed from last time. Some of these functions can be given a special argument to set the current state as default state for next iteration of checks. Cluster are monitored from the head nodes since not all nodes are accessible from central location. Head node checks contain a special function that simply use DSH to launch checks on all nodes. After looking at nagios and its check_cluster plugins I realized I would really like to monitor each of the nodes individually since I want to be able to disable a particular check on a particular node. Also I want to be able to use status files for some of the checks. As of now I have yet to find any plugin that utilizes a status file to monitor hosts. All plugin simply use current output from commands to verify the status. I will be using active checks on the clusters therefore I will configure nrpe on all nodes. My plan of attack was to simply use head node as a gateway and all nodes and services to be defined on the head node (under nrpe). From central location I can simply execute a check_nrpe type script to verify backend nodes. I still haven't figured out how I can use status files from each iteration of checks to validate status. I'd appreciate some inputs as to what are the best options in monitoring clusters where backend nodes are hidden from the central monitoring server. Also some help with use of state files.

Re: [Nagios-users] Plugins for health-check of IBM servers
Thanks for the help. I am in the process of configuring the check_ipmi_chassis plugin. In my earlier email I mentioned that I use the check_cciss plugin for health-check of HP servers (by mistake). Actually the plugin used is check_hpasm.

Not so much of a problem. You'll want to use the -I and -H parameters to
check_http and pass the hostname from the service definition as an
argument --
define command{
command_name http_vhost
Command_line $USER1$/check_http -I $HOSTADDRESS$ -H $ARG1$
}
define host{
host_name web_server
address 192.168.1.2
...
}
define service{
host_name webserver
service_description web site 1
check_command http_vhost!www.site1.example
...
}
define service{
define service{
host_name webserver
service_description web site 2
check_command http_vhost!www.site2.example
...
}

Re: [Nagios-users] New Nagios Plugins website
Thanks Tom, We were thinking that the --help pages are different from the man pages. For instance, dpkg --help or rpm --help gives a list of options, whereas man dpkg or man rpm gives more commentary and examples. However, that requires more work. If --help on the site is sufficient, we could setup a job that takes the latest code and populate the web site with it.

Re: [Nagios-users] escalation
First, you don't really want to add r to escalation_options as you only
want it to escalate when the status is critical, not when it's critical
and recovery.
Second, it doesn't make much sense as an "escalation" as the
notification interval is supposed to increase when you define your
escalation, you do exactly the opposite, although it probably is not the
cause, you could add a bigger notification_interval to service than to
service escalation.
(forgot to change the "To..." address to Nagios-user, now the original
poster gets 2 mails, but oh well)

[Nagios-users] Availability reports & Retrospective Scheduled Downtime
Hi there, Is there anyway to retrospectively add in scheduled downtime so that the downtime does not appear as unscheduled in the availability report in Nagios 2.9? At present, if I add downtime after the outage (e.g. if it turns that an outage was due to a customer doing maintanence rather than a fault in our service) it doesn't change the report, it still appears as unscheduled downtime.
