That makes sense. I have seen this option in the BES manager, but I didn't know this was the solution. In fact I didn't know what meant "Level 1 message".

Re: [Nagios-users] Slightly-OT - Notification management
Ugo, What you are looking for here are the blackberry-specific concepts of both "profiles" and "exceptions." First, setup the email address from your nagios alerting system inside your blackberry contacts. Second, setup two custom profiles on the blackberry - call one "nagios_on-call" and one "nagios_vacation." Third, setup the alerting methods you would like for each profile (on-call loudly alerts you, nagios_vacation quietly alerts or does not alert at all). Fourth, inside your current blackberry alert profile, setup a custom exception. Tie the exception to the nagios addressbook entry, and then set the blackberry alert profile to use either your "on_call" or your "vacation" profile - depending on how you wish to be nagged currently.

You could even have a separate check to monitor the CPU utilization of the busiest CPU. You could adjust your load thresholds in accordance with the number of processors. Then when/if your load hits a threshold, you can check the CPU utilization graph to see how it compares. I would think that the load average would be easier to interpret if the applications running on the server are multithreaded (and load is distributed evenly across the cores). - This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.

This is what we do on our Sun boxes, in a custom "check_system" script: # Set 1,5,15 minute load average thresholds based on CPU count CPU=`psrinfo | wc -l` LOAD1=$((CPU*20)); test $LOAD1 -lt 50 && LOAD1=50 LOAD5=$((CPU*15)); test $LOAD5 -lt 30 && LOAD5=30 LOAD15=$((CPU*10)); test $LOAD15 -lt 15 && LOAD15=15 LOAD_W=$LOAD1,$LOAD5,$LOAD15 LOAD_C=$((LOAD1*5)),$((LOAD5*5)),$((LOAD15*5)) ... and on our linux systems ... CPU=`grep "^processor" /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l` LOAD1=$((CPU*20)); test $LOAD1 -lt 50 && LOAD1=50 LOAD5=$((CPU*15)); test $LOAD5 -lt 30 && LOAD5=30 LOAD15=$((CPU*10)); test $LOAD15 -lt 15 && LOAD15=15 LOAD_W=$LOAD1,$LOAD5,$LOAD15 LOAD_C=$((LOAD1*5)),$((LOAD5*5)),$((LOAD15*5)) ... and we then parse the output of "uptime". It would really cool if the "check_load" plugin would take args like: check_load -w 20x,15x,10x -c 100x,75x,50x ... but what I've got above has been doing what we want just fine. -s- - This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.

The NSClient++ data collector's primary mechanism for actions (getting
it to do stuff) is via NRPE. It will respond to the old nsclient
command as well but the majority of it's functions are utilized through
NRPE. This is the case with your situation as well. On the Nagios side
you would define a check like you have above and in the NSC.ini file you
define a handler for the command. Below is an example of one we use to
check the CPU utilization of any process on the server.
On the Nagios server define your service as above and use something like
this for the command_line line.
Command_line$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -t 60 -c
wmi_process_perf -a $ARG1$
On the Windows server in the NSC.ini file under the NRPE Handlers
section put something like this:
wmi_process_perf=c:\windows\system32\cscript.exe //nologo "c:\program
files\nsclient++\scripts\wmi_cpu_perf.vbs" /process:$ARG1$
In this example the $ARG1$ value is the name of a running process on the
server. The check returns the CPU and memory utilization of the
process.

This is pretty much the same question as "should I modify my rm command, somehow, so that it forces -i, so I don't accidentally remove things", and, for me, where the *real* problem lies is here: If you train yourself to expect the modified behavior, then you won't be expecting the traditional behaviour when you find yourself out in The World... and other people coming in won't expect the answers they get either. I understand your goal, but I think a better way to do it might be to *rename the check command* on those machines, so that you still see 8 as the answer, but the question is check_load_8cpu. That way, you get a close-in reminder that the baseline is to be expected to be different. It's a really good question, though, and opinions will likely differ. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.

[Nagios-users] Total cpu usage
HI All I hope that someone can please assist me with either a script or a plugin. I am looking to monitor the total percentage of CPU usage on a linux server using Nagios. I was hoping to write my own script but as this is quite urgent being a production system I need to get this in a.s.a.p We are currently monitoring the load averages but they have the requirement to be notified once the cpu's are used at more than 80% capacity as this suggests a problem on the relevant servers.

[Nagios-users] NLG Errors
Hi All, We think NLG is for us (thanks Andy!) but we can't get it to work. Here's some details: OS: SLES10 32 bits NLG: 1.0.6 and 1.1.0b1 HTTPD: Apache2-2.2.3 PHP: PHP5-5.1.2 Browser: Firefox 1.5.0.6 Afaik all dependencies are solved. Server directory is copied to the Nagios server in /usr/local/nagios/share, and client dir is copied to the Webserver in /srv/www/htdocs. both are named 'nlg' which is reflected in the configfiles. We followed the PDF document to configure everything, but we get garbled output on the web GUI, and some errors in the apache logs: [Thu May 08 14:43:33 2008] [error] [client 10.10.10.10] PHP Notice: Undefined variable: NLG_Language in /srv/www/htdocs/nlg/s3_client.php on line 86 [Thu May 08 14:43:33 2008] [error] [client 10.10.10.10] PHP Warning: require(sync-files/s3_lang_.inc.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /srv/www/htdocs/nlg/s3_client.php on line 86 [Thu May 08 14:43:33 2008] [error] [client 10.10.10.10] PHP Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'sync-files/s3_lang_.inc.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php5:/usr/share/php5/PEAR') in /srv/www/htdocs/nlg/s3_client.php on line 86 Curious if anyone has any clues; googling didn't help much :( Rgds and thanks in advance, Richard - This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.

[Nagios-users] Slightly-OT - Notification management
Hi, This is only indirectly related to nagios, as it is more related to notifications management. We are currently using nagios and receive alerts by email and by text messages (e-mails) sent to our cell phones. I am looking for using Blackberry devices instead, but I have one concern: Assuming that we have a BlackBerry Enterprise Server, is it possible to, for example: -> Configure something so that it is possible to be notified (vibration, sound) by our BB device only if the e-mail received is a nagios alert. The goal of all this is that , outside work hours, our staff would read their regular e-mail if they'd like to, but wouldn't be bothered by the BB device for regular e-mail. However, if it is a nagios alert, they would be alerted. Thanks, Ugo - This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.

You need "-c " before check_disk 2. You should not be passing args through NRPE according to the nrpe.cfg docs. Instead you may want to hardcode the arguments in nrpe.cfg as command[check_disk_root] and then just call ./check_nrpe -H 10.23.3.29 -c check_disk_root. -h -- Hari Sekhon - This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.

This only takes a specific format for service checks only to my knowledge (or at least that's all I use it for). Otherwise I'd look on NagiosExchange.org, pretty much everything 3rd party to Nagios core is listed there... -h -- Hari Sekhon - This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.

You need a Unix-side script to execute and handle the condition
appropriately, for example to only call the restart when the service is
in hard failure. A sample Bash script is given in the docs to get you
started.
If using Bash (which I recommend) the Bash script should check the state
and perform the logic control, calling the batch or script on the
windows side though an NRPE call to nsclient++ to execute the script on
the windows host.

Re: [Nagios-users] check_nt -v counter value question (when using counters with colon)
Hello, Counternames with : are "broken" this is bug that will hopefully be fixed in the next version. A workaround is to use an "alias" which IIRC might work is to add an "alias" (which is what causes the problem) like so: "dummyalias:\\SQLServer:Databases(_Total)\\Data File(s) Size (KB)","SQL Server Databases Datafile size total is %.f" (not so much) more details here: http://nsclient.org/nscp/ticket/165 // Michael Medihn > I am using, on my windows 2003 server, nsclient++.
