Re: [Nagios-users] migrate 2.9 to 3.0: check configuration failed
strange, as i retry this evening, `nagios -v ...` now gives me error lines. i believe i only change some permissions. does nagios give some warning if it can't access some files ? or if permission directory is incorrect ? Maybe a warning could help thanks for the help Regards - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ ___ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null

I might be wrong, but as far as I know Nagios 2.x performs a host check on each service failure, and notify for that service only if the host is not in HARD DOWN state after the last check (when the service enter the HARD state and the host check has already been perfiormed for that last failure). I guess it also performs one on state changes, and possibly not when services are already in a hard critical state, to detect host up (haven't really read on that but that seems to be the logical thing to do). With Nagios 3.x, there's scheduled host checks and result caching in the mix, so that : 1. not every service failure will result in a host check 2. Host checks are not run serially like they did in nagios 2.x, which was by far the biggest bottleneck. The official Nagios documentation explains the check logic in details if you read it thoughtfully. - -- Thomas -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFJGQTS6dZ+Kt5BchYRAnOQAKDy6jYFWUSHe/+r5oPdrA4C0UM2LgCaA2Hi oIqady/Kz99UlzxLxDNhGiw= =kY+I -END PGP SIGNATURE- - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ ___ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
[Nagios-users] GroundWork (Nagios) Service Checks/Host Checks
Dear All, I have been studying GroundWork monitor, with reference of course to Nagios. I hope someone can answer my query. Re: Nagios 2.x It is my understanding that when all the service checks fail, Nagios performs host checks; the number of which we have specified to 3. At which point (after reporting that Host is in a "Non-okay" state) Nagios resumes service checks. It is at this point my question lies. When does Nagios perform another host check? Would it be after all the service checks are reported "Okay" or will Nagios perform a host check after the first service check reports "okay". Thank you to all in advance for taking the time to read this and respond, it`s highly appreciated.

To the best of my knowledge you can have only 160 bytes per message. And most email to SMS gateways do not handle content over this single message limit.

Just curious. What is wrong with defining contacts to be individuals and contact groups for the specific areas people are responsible for? - From a logical point I find it a bit hard to see why you would need to add individuals besides groups to devices. Sometimes it pays of in the long run to be a bit stubborn about adding not to many exceptions. Exceptions have a tendency to take on a life of their own and triple your workload.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios acknowledgement (with check_logfiles plugin)
We configure check logfiles as a volatile service and choose not to use the sticky option. Some logs we configure check-logfiles to send a message via nsca for each pattern match, ensuring we don't miss any notifications. We also configure check-logfiles services not to send out recovery messages, and only schedule downtime or disable notifications during maintenance.

[Nagios-users] Nagios acknowledgement (with check_logfiles plugin)
We're deploying Nagios (currently using 3.0.2) for our Unix servers, and I have a question about acknowledgement. We're using the check_logfiles plugin to monitor syslogs (e.g. /var/adm/messages on Solaris). check_logfiles returns CRITICAL when it detects a problem, but then normally clears itself (returns OK) the next time it runs. Nagios notifies us only once under this scenerio, and since it's possible that pagers might miss just one page (paging services aren't 100% reliable), we'd rather get notified until we explicitly acknowledge the problem. The check_logfiles plugin does have the capability to continue to report the error (using its "sticky" option). This is good since then we're notified longer, but if we then use the Nagios "Acknowledge" link to acknowledge the problem, new problems (e.g. new errors in /var/adm/messages) reported by the check_logfiles plugin get ignored. My question: Is there a way with Nagios to acknowledge a problem reported by a plugin like check_logfiles without ignoring future problems? Or would this be new functionality needed in Nagios? I realize we can syslog an "okpattern" string and check_logfiles will then clear, but I'm looking for something using the Nagios web (and external command_file) interfaces. Using the Nagios "Acknowledge" link would be ideal, since that's what folks are going to be using for other problems. Nagios and the check_logfiles plugin are great tools... perhaps I'm simply missing something.

[Nagios-users] disabling checks of all service and host no longer works
Ever since I upgraded to 3.0.5 I noticed that if I select a host and choose 'disable checks on all services on this host' then select for host also, it doesn't do anything. If I disable the host check and service checks individually it works, but never all at once. I did notice, however, that if I select to disable checks of all services and don't check to disable for the host also, it will actually disable checks for all services - but not if I include the host.

Re: [Nagios-users] Notification Recovery Issue
Here's a thought: could it be that your original contact list don't get
notified because you are in an escalation period? Thus the original list
is out of reach.
One thing you could try is creating a new list (lfisher_ooh) and then
set this group to get the alerts during escalation periods but only
'recovery' alerts (ie. notification_options r)

As I've said, I notice in the logs that there is a recovery notification
going to my none contact group, then before that I see the notification
sent to the none contact group, and then 2 hours before that I see the
notification going to everyone that it is supposed to. This has been
happening for awhile now.
Also, I don't believe your suggestion would do anything as the
documentations say: "Note: Notifications about host or service
recoveries are only sent out if a notification was sent out for the
original problem. It doesn't make sense to get a recovery notification
for something you never knew was a problem." Therefore why would a
contact only get recovery notifications.

Re: [Nagios-users] hosts.config
Herein lies my problem. I've inherited supporting our Nagios system.
It was pre-configured and set-up by a previous employee. I've gone
over the web-based manual, but can't find specifics like this defined
in the manual.
I was tasked with updating all of the groups and contacts, but need to
make sure that I get it set up correctly.

Or is there a different command that needs to go there:

Hi List, I have the following situation. I try to connect to the NDO and want to get informations about Downtimes that will be set, or was set. The nagios_downtimehistory is shown each downtime. Also them who set in the future. If I try do remove a Downtime, that is set in the Future in the Nagios Interface, the NDO still show the Downtime with the flag 'was cancelled=0'. In the Nagios Interface the Downtime is removed. The 'event_broker_options' is set to '-1'. My NDO Version is 1.4b7 and Nagios is Version 3.0.5 Any ideas or suggestions.

Re: [Nagios-users] Notification Recovery Issue
Sorry, I should have included that. I'm using version 3.0.5 on RHEL4 ES. I get recoveries if the host escalations do not take effect and I can see in the event log that the notification was just sent to my escalation group once the escalation group gets a notification.

[Nagios-users] Notification Recovery Issue
I have been noticing an issue with notifications that I wanted to run by everyone before I report it as a bug. I'm also hoping someone who is on the development list can let me know if this has already been reported. I use escalations to suppress notifications on weekends so when no one is around to fix something, we don't have a very full inbox come Monday. So, on non work hours, I have a host escalation that goes to a false email starting from notification 2 to infinity. This works great, but if the host recovers during the escalation period, recovery notifications only go to the escalation user, not all the users that were notified of the problem. This becomes a problem as certain management folk don't seem to know how to go to the website to look at the status and think things are still down without a recovery notification. I am not sure about service alerts, but I know this has not worked for quite some time on host alerts. Has anyone else seen this problem?
