 Get the actual commands run for 'check_zombie_procs' and
 'check_total_procs' out of the nrpe.cfg file on the remote server and
 run them by hand as the same user as the nrpe agent runs as to see
 what happens.


Here are the actual command and out put on the remote server

For Checking total process

Hi Lars,

Thanks a lot to let me know about the contrib.
Yes the mentioned script is there in my nagios monitoring system, but I
have not found it in my

Re: [Nagios-users] Problems with NDOUtils

2008-09-04 Thread Ronaldo A. Bueno Filho

Hi again!

I have already checked all files permissions and ownership. I've changed it
and was still not working, anyway, I found and solved the problem... I just
remade everything and when I was creating the files to compile, using
./configure, I saw that there were some statements with no. The list is
shown below:

checking ltdl.h usability... no
checking ltdl.h presence... no
checking socket.h usability... no
checking socket.h presence... no
checking tcpd.h usability... no
checking tcpd.h presence... no
checking for socket in -lsocket... no
checking for main in -lwrap... no
checking for mysql_connect in -lmysqlclient... no


To solve it, I installed the following libs using apt-get:

libltdl3-dev
libmysqlclient15-dev
libwrap0-dev

I just deleted the files and created it again using ./configure
For now, there are still errors (no statements) on my output. Before I had
problems with tcpd.h and socket.h. Now I have only the socket error, as you
can see below:

checking socket.h usability... no
checking socket.h presence... no
checking for socket.h... no
checking for mysql_connect in -lmysqlclient... no

the problem above to connect to lmysqlclient, is because it uses socket to
connect. All I did was to change the ndo2db.cfg and ndomod.cfg within
/usr/local/nagios/etc/ to use tcp in socket_type.

It works!!!


Notice thar I am still not able to use unix in socket_type due the problem
when generating the files. (did not find socket.h)

I found it on my debian the following socket.h 

/usr/include/asm-x86_64/socket.h
/usr/include/sys/socket.h
/usr/include/asm/socket.h
/usr/include/linux/socket.h
/usr/include/bits/socket.h
/usr/include/asm-i486/socket.h

Using diff, I see that all files are different from each other so I just
left it as it is. If you know some lib that contains the socket.h or if you
know how can I do to NDO find it, I appreciate. Anyway, now it is working
under tcp socket_type.

My hint is:

Take a look on the ./configure output. If there is any no, find the lib,
install it and issue again ./configure.

Thanks

 Check the permissions/ownership on your ndo configuration files, I'd
 created an rpm the other day with too strict permissions on these
 files that made ndo unable to read them. It doesn't really alert you
 about it, it just goes along with default values.

thanks mate, good overview. I have had the same issues with nagvis, it
crashing every now and then; ndo2db issues. I will give nexsm a try. Please
be expecting emails from me about nexsm, lol.

thanks again

 Have you used it in production environment before. What are the
 disadvantages and advantages over nagvis?


 Yeah, we were running nexsm on our network of about 300 devices - not huge,
 but not tiny. The main advantage that I found was ease of configuration.
 With nexsm, it starts with the map fully populated with all network devices
 and links, and you can simply drag the devices around to where you want
 them. With nagvis, it starts off with an empty map, and you have to manually
 place every device AND every link. If you are just trying to populate a
 server room or something, this is fine, and probably even easer than the
 nexsm approach (where you would have to tell it to hide all the unwanted
 hosts), but when you are trying to map 300 or so devices, plus links, it
 quickly becomes prohibitively time consuming. And while you can reposition
 devices in nagvis by dragging (although I have had no end of trouble getting
 that to work), they aren't attached to their links, so you have to manually
 reposition BOTH the device and any links to/from the device. This isn't an
 issue with nexsm.

 I also found the display in nexsm to be easier to use- you can easily zoom
 in and out to see more or less of the map (if you can do this in nagvis, I
 haven't discovered how), and the map can be as large as you want- nagvis
 (from what I can tell) is limited to the size of the background image you
 choose. Although I do prefer the icon sets with nagvis over nexsm- nexsm
 uses the image you set in the nagios config.

 Finally, I prefer nexsm over nagvis for performance issues,
 although admittedly I suspect this is due to mysql, not nagvis itself. On
 the system I am using, I have found that when nagios is dumping stuff to the
 database, mysql uses pretty much all available processing power, and nagios
 hangs waiting for it to complete. Nexsm just reads the nagios logs directly,
 and while it is java, which uses a fair amount of processor, it's not as bad
 as mysql, at least on my OS. Also, when running nagvis, nagios has
 a tendency to stop updating completely every day or two, and can't be
 restarted until I kill the ndo2db daemon. I never had issues like that with
 nexsm- probably because it was just passively reading the log files, rather
 than trying to use an active event broker in nagios. Nexsm also just feels
 simpler to me- nagvis consists of an event broker module, a ndo2db daemon,
 the mysql server (although that might already be running somewhere for
 something else) and the web front end. nexsm is just a single java applet.

 Keep in mind though that my opinions may be at least partially based on
 incomplete or incorrect knowledge of nagvis. While I used nexsm extensively
 until we moved to nagios 3, I have never actually managed to get nagvis
 running acceptably. The three separate occasions I tried it have all been
 non-starters. The last time I got it running for a couple of days, but
 between the above mentioned performance issues, and never really being able
 to get the maps configured the way I wanted, we quickly took it offline.
 Also it is entirely possible that my desired usage (as a full-network
 overview) is better suited for nexsm than nagvis, and a different usage
 might work better with nagvis. But so far, for us, nagvis has proven to not
 be sutable.

 Hi Guys,

 Are there other projects like nagvis?


 If you are still running nagios 2, nexsm ( http://nexsm.sf.net ) is
 an excellent option, one that I highly preferred over nagvis for a number of
 reasons. Doesn't work with nagios 3, however. I Don't know how hard it would
 be to fix (I suspect it is just a log parsing issue, but I don't know), but
 it is written in java, which I don't know, and the developer hasn't had time
 to work on it lately. Oh well.

[Nagios-users] notify-{host, service}-by-email command resistant to changes

2008-09-04 Thread Marcus
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi Folks,

I just tried to get the Macro $HOSTNOTESURL$ below my notification-email
for an enhanced usability experience.
However, the changes I made to the command-definition are not taken into
account, when nagios makes my mta send me a mail.

Example:

I just changed State to german Status just to see if it works, then
restarted nagios and klicked on Send custom host notification for one
of the servers.
However, I still see State instead of Status, and I don't see a
URL-representation anywhere.

I grepped for Date/Time, to see if there are maybe overlapping commands
defined, but there aren't.

I use the generic-contact template:
service_notification_commands   notify-service-by-email
host_notification_commands  notify-host-by-email

and the custom mail-commands, slightly enhanced for URL-sending:

The command-definitions are:

# 'notify-host-by-email' command definition
define command{
command_namenotify-host-by-email
command_line/usr/bin/printf %b * Nagios
*\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\nHost:
$HOSTNAME$\nStatus: $HOSTSTATE$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nInfo:
$HOSTOUTPUT$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n\nURL: $HOSTNOTESURL$\n |
/usr/bin/mail -s ** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ Host Alert: $HOSTNAME$ is
$HOSTSTATE$ ** $CONTACTEMAIL$
}

# 'notify-service-by-email' command definition
define command{
command_namenotify-service-by-email
command_line/usr/bin/printf %b * Nagios
*\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService:
$SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTALIAS$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nStatus:
$SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n\nAdditional
Info:\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$\n\n $HOSTNOTESURL$\n $SERVICENOTESURL$ |
/usr/bin/mail -s ** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ Service Alert:
$HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ ** $CONTACTEMAIL$
}

The mail then looks like this:

* Nagios *

Notification Type: RECOVERY
Host: OpenVPN1
State: UP
Address: ovpn1.somedomain.de
Info: WARNING - ovpn1.somedomain.de: rta 0.839ms, lost 0%

Date/Time: Thu Sept 4 09:44:01 CEST 2008

No URL anywhere, ...

Please be so kind to guide me to the solution of this occurence.

Thanks in advance,
 Marcus

 Well, you'd better verify what you've installed on the remote machine,
 and how it was installed. The contrib directory might not be included.
 The contrib directory is however included in the nagios-plugin source,
 i.e. you might have to pick up the check_linux_raid and put it on to
 the target machine yourself.

I'll do that.
with best wishes

 Hi Folks,

 I just tried to get the Macro $HOSTNOTESURL$ below my notification-

 However, the changes I made to the command-definition are not taken

Sounds like you have multiple nagios daemons running at the same time.

[Nagios-users] check_procs from Nagios plugins 1.4.12 is veeery slow on Solaris 10 5/08

2008-09-04 Thread Bernd Nies
Hi,

Something bad happened to the check_proc plugin between version 1.45 and 
v1991. For counting ca 1700 processes on a Sun Enterprise M4000 it takes 
45 seconds and sometimes longer. An older version was much faster qirh 
0.3 seconds.

I compiled Nagios plugins 1.4.12 on a Solaris 9 with GCC 3.4.6 to get 
binaries that can run on Solaris 8, 9 and 10.



[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ /opt/adnnagios/libexec/check_procs-1.45 -V

Can you please try a recent snapshot?  The I rewrote the pst3 binary  
to enable to work faster and be zone aware (to allow use in in the  
global and sub zones).  Its been fine for me, but I don't think there  
has been a release since the code was committed.

CC'ing in the nagiosplug-devel list (probably best place for this

 Sounds like you have multiple nagios daemons running at the same time.

I doubt that I actually had two instances running, but who knows.
Maybe there is an issue with my restart-script (from init.d)...
I just killed nagios thoroughly (blood everywhere), and now, the
test-mail I just initiated after restarting shows me the changes.
I even almost got the desired result (a link to host or service) by
building the linkification manually, by combining the servername and
$HOSTNAME$-variable.
But, for services that contain spaces, it doesn't work.

By the way, the $HOSTNOTESURL$ definitely doesn't produce any output on
my system, same goes for the $SERVICENOTESURL$. Is it supposed to
produce a valid html-link or something like that? I didn't quite
understand that part of the current documentation.

Why not try xinetd with a simple firewall rule?  I believe most people  
use xinetd or inetd and thus you should be able to get the most help  
that way.  I set it up the same way the documentation states. 
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/nrpe/NRPE.pdf 
   Have you successfully installed NRPE before?  If not, it may be  
time to move to a testing environment that you can have full control  
over.

That being said... Are you running SElinux?  Have you checked out your  
relevant logs for nrpe, iptables, selinux, etc (/var/log/messages,  
make sure debugging is turned on with NRPE)...  It may be give you  
some interesting information.  I like to run tail on the problem  
server then try NRPE from the monitoring server to see what is going on.


# REMOTE SERVER running NRPE daemon continuosly running tail
$ tail -f /var/log/messages
Sep  4 09:35:03 dev2 nrpe[7118]: INFO: SSL/TLS initialized. All  
network traffic will be encrypted.

I orginally replied to Dave off-list, but I saw a couple of hangups on 
our 6.3/amd64/SMP/4BSD master during/after some NSCA result submission 
bombs caused by some wide outages.  There was really no impact in terms 
of resource consumption or race conditions, just unresponsive daemons 
(the debug log just kept cycling through the nothing to do! routine.)

I wasn't too worried about it since it was caused by extremely atypical 
events so I didn't do much troubleshooting, but I can at least confirm 
the behavior.

Hi all:

 

Running Nagios 2.9 on a Linux system with MySQL 5.0

I have the database running and the nagios data is put into the MySQL.

 

Are there any examples, tips or resources available to writing reports
that will access the nagios data from the database?

 

Many thanks

Re: [Nagios-users] using nagios in my own website

2008-09-04 Thread Paul Weaver
The host/service status is stored in /usr/local/nagios/var/status.dat
(or wherever you nagios install is). This is a plain text file with the
status of every host and service in it.
 
You can read it yourself however you want, but some languages may have a
module for reading the file -- perl has a Nagios::StatusLog  module in
cpan, or often via your distribution (With ubuntu apt-get install
libnagios-object-perl)
 
You could also, I believe, look at NDO, which sends nagios data out to
a mysql database.

[Nagios-users] Problems while trying to configure Nagios

2008-09-04 Thread Reynier Perez Mira
Hi every:
I've downloaded and compiled Nagios 3.0.3. Reading the documentation I try to 
configure it for monitoring services and hosts. When I access to Nagios and 
pick Service Detail I get this error:

It appears as though you do not have permission to view information for any of 
the services you requested...

If you believe this is an error, check the HTTP server authentication 
requirements for accessing this CGI
and check the authorization options in your CGI configuration file. 

Can any help me with this?
Cheers and thanks in advance

[Nagios-users] Service Escalations

2008-09-04 Thread Robert Small
Ok, I¹ve manage to thoroughly confuse my self with service escalations.

Here is an example of my configs:

   --service_definitation:

define service{
use   generic-service
host_name box1,box2
service_description  disk_space
check_command   check_nrpe!check_disks
contact_groups
oncall,developers,backup,tech-team,management
notifications_enabled   1
}

My escalations config:

define serviceescalation{
host_name   box1,box2
service_descriptiondisk_space
first_notification 1
last_notification  10
notification_interval   4
contact_groupsoncall
}

define serviceescalation{
host_namebox1,box2
service_description disk_space
first_notification 11
last_notification  20
notification_interval   4
contact_groups  oncall,backup
}

define serviceescalation{
host_name  box1,box2
service_description   disk_space
first_notification21
last_notification 30
notification_interval  4
contact_groups  oncall,backup,tech-team
}

define serviceescalation{
host_name  box1,box2
service_description   disk_space
first_notification 31
last_notification
notification_interval   4
contact_groups   oncall,backup,tech-team,management
}

My first question:
There have been two times in the past 24 hours when a service went down, and
within a minute was acknowledged, and everybody got the acknowledgement, not
just the oncall person.

And secondly,  if I added and Œeveryone¹ to my service Œcontact_groups¹, and
utilized the time_period option in the escalations config for after hours,
would everyone get the notification during the day?

Thanks!

Robert

It seems you may have enabled authorization for the CGIs but didn't  
configure htaccess or otherwise complete the configuration? Otherwise  
the username you are logged in as isn't a contact for any hosts/ 
services or hasn't been granted extended authorized_for permissions in  
cgi.cfg.

[Nagios-users] ocsp_command option unable to complete - Code 127

2008-09-04 Thread Murali Edula
Hi,

We are configuring distributed monitoring using send_nsca. I am seeing
following error from 

Nagios.log when ocsp_command executed by nagios service. 

But I can run manually the same command as nagios user successful.

 

$ /usr/local/nagios/libexec/test_nsca rome.baytree.com 'Current Users' 0
'USERS OK - 4 users currently logged in'

1 data packet(s) sent to host successfully.

 

Please help me what I am missing and why Nagios service giving me Code 127.
Even though script is existed in

/usr/local/nagios/libexec

 

 

See the following setup files.

 

 

===Nagios.log

 

[1220559119] INITIAL SERVICE STATE: rome.baytree.com;Current

Make sure the script or binary you are trying to execute actually exists...

 

===commands.cfg

 

define command{

Thanks for providing the appropriate config snippets. Looks good. Make  
sure that any programs used within the test_nsca script exist and use / 
fully/qualified/paths. The environment available when the daemon  
executes the script is restricted.

I'm a little confused as to why you have everybody in the service
definition, and then break it down in the escallations.  It seems a
slightly unusual way of doing it, but based on the verbiage from the
docs, should work... 

  http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/escalations.html

The way the docs have it laid out, and using your samples, it'd have
the contact_groups for the service as just oncall.  Then for the first
service escallation, which would be from 11, to 20 (not 1 to 10), the
groups would be oncall, and backup. Then on the 21-30, it'd be oncall,
backup, and tech-team, etc etc etc.

And secondly,  if I added and Œeveryone¹ to my service Œcontact_groups¹, and
utilized the time_period option in the escalations config for after hours,
would everyone get the notification during the day?

It doesn't seem to mention it that way, but yes, it'd appear to behave
that way.

 I'm not using xinetd. I'm using nrpe daemon instead.
 May be my firewall is responsible for the problem but I'm not sure

 Why not try xinetd with a simple firewall rule?  I believe most people  
 use xinetd or inetd and thus you should be able to get the most help  
 that way.  I set it up the same way the documentation states. 
 http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/nrpe/NRPE.pdf 
Have you successfully installed NRPE before?  If not, it may be  
 time to move to a testing environment that you can have full control  
 over.

 That being said... Are you running SElinux?  Have you checked out your  
 relevant logs for nrpe, iptables, selinux, etc (/var/log/messages,  
 make sure debugging is turned on with NRPE)...  It may be give you  
 some interesting information.  I like to run tail on the problem  
 server then try NRPE from the monitoring server to see what is going on.


 # REMOTE SERVER running NRPE daemon continuosly running tail
 $ tail -f /var/log/messages
 Sep  4 09:35:03 dev2 nrpe[7118]: INFO: SSL/TLS initialized. All  
 network traffic will be encrypted.
 Sep  4 09:35:03 dev2 xinetd[32709]: EXIT: nrpe status=0 pid=7118  
 duration=2(sec)
 ...


 # NAGIOS SERVER running 'check_nrpe -H REMOTEHOST' or have nagios run  
 checks till they start to timeout.
 $ ./check_npre -H REMOTEHOST
 NRPE v2.11


 Good luck!
   

Hi,

I have not found anything interesting through logs. My problem has been
solved by increasing the time to 30
[ -t  30 ]  . Even 20 sec  time gave me trouble. But I have no clue yet
why any thing less than 30 sec  did not work.

with regards
