[Nagios-users] Regarding Nagios
Hello, My self Sunny Bhatheja. From Last 2 months i m working with nagios in different enviourments.I did many projects with nagios. So i would like to share my work that i did that can help the people to understand the nagios, installation and configuration and monitoring the linux , windows and sun system. I created a document i will upload on net after few days and i give the links on nagios list.

[Nagios-users] HOWTO I wrote on installing NRPE from RPMs
For what it's worth, here is a HOWTO I made for some of the people I'm currently working with on how to install NRPE on a slew of RHEL-ish systems we currently have in production (Fedora, RHEL, CentOS). http://nagioswiki.com/wiki/index.php/Installing_NPRE_via_RPM Hopefully this helps others who are in the same boat. - SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

Not sure what that event is, but I'll soon look for it and monitor for it. AIX also has stuff in its error reporting program (errpt), so I can cron that to a log file and periodically check that for adapter errors or whatever.

Re: [Nagios-users] AIX log monitoring with check_log
Roger, I have an ODM snippet I use which logs the errpt data into syslog. Then your syslog monitoring software (not necessarily Nagios) can pick it up. AIX's ODM has the ability to call scripts or commands in response to error log entries, if you want to differentiate. If you'd find it useful, I'd be happy to post it here. Thanks.

[Nagios-users] Monarch not saving Contact gRoup info.
Hi all.. I was on vacation and when I returned I was the Nagios Admin. Actually enjoying it so far but I have run into an issue. I am using Monarch (GroundWork Monitor Architect 2.0) and I created a new Host. Worked great however when I add a contact group. I can highlight it. I can click Add. It appears in the left hand list of contact groups on the host page. I can click Save. It says it's saved, but when I view the host again, my contact group is back in the right hand "not added" list of contact groups. Any thoughts?

[Nagios-users] Define multiple serves per host(s)
Hello, I saw in the Nagios docs, in the Time-Saving Tricks For Object Definitions page, how to use regular expressions for defining identical services for multiple hosts. Is there a "shortcut" for defining similar multiple services for multiple hosts? The actual case here is to monitor the link status on all ports on several identical switches.

[Nagios-users] Event Handlers on the External Commands
I am trying to get the performance data from the remote machines passively and want to control the starting and the stopping of the monitoring probes from the Nagios Server machine. For this, I want to write Event Handlers on the External Commands, but I am not sure How to go about it ? Does somebody has any idea about it ? any sample code will be of great help.

Since spoofing the Mac is obvious, it can also take a list of hostnames since this is less obvious to spoof. If you use both, chances are that anyone jumping on your network and being issued a dhcp lease from dhcpd will trip it and alert you. It's not a complete solution but is nice from the defense in depth point of view of multiple layers. It's also just nice to see at a glance in Nagios who has leases on your dhcpd server and the output is fairly flexible. Of course, someone who gets on your network may not use dhcp at all but this is just a small piece of the puzzle. I also use arpwatch which can indeed alert on mac changes or additions, or you can use it's logging to alert from a central place... Arpwatch will not integrate directly into Nagios, but since arpwatch can log to syslog, you could use a nagios log check to alert on any logged Mac additions. -h -- Hari Sekhon - SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

[Nagios-users] multiple notifications with differing interval
Hi, i have a question regarding the following setup: I have Nagios send SMS for host and service alerts to a mobile phone. Also, I send those notifications to several jabber-users. This works fine. Now, the requirement is to send the SMS in 15 minute intervals. But I want to avoid spamming the jabber-users, and send notifications to them only every hour or so. I can use host escalations and service escalations to do that, however, i don't want serviceescalation-definitions for every service. Is that possible? Is there a way to have an escalation that applies to several services and hosts at once? /Benno -- Sebastian Benoit - SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

If manually and the guests will then run on that host-server only, there is no simple way to tell nagios this. It's akin to moving a server from one room to another. Nagios can't know that parents have changed unless you tell it to, so you'll have to reconfigure Nagios when it happens. > > > I saw a posting saying to create a virtual host which represents the ESX > cluster and to use check_summary to test for at least one OK ESX server. > > > > The check_summary didn't work for me, I wondered if there was another > way to achieve the same result ? > If it's supposed to happen automatically, you can use check_icmp in check_host mode, like so: ln -s check_icmp check_host ./check_host ip1 ip2 ip3 ... ipN If at least one server responds, it will return ok. -- Andreas Ericsson [EMAIL PROTECTED] OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 - SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

That usually gives a lot more human-parseable output than the mibs ever have. Seeing something such as "UPSBatteryPctCapacity = INTEGER: 100" makes things quite readable, imo.
