I have something similar that needs to run twice a day. I used time
periods and a service template to control when it runs:
define timeperiod{
timeperiod_name twicedaily
alias For Running 2x Daily
monday 08:40-09:00,19:50-20:10
tuesday 08:40-09:00,19:50-20:10
wednesday 08:40-09:00,19:50-20:10
thursday08:40-09:00,19:50-20:10
friday 08:40-09:00,19:50-20:10
saturday08:40-09:00,19:50-20:10
sunday 08:40-09:00,19:50-20:10
}
define service{
name generic-twice-daily
use generic-service
normal_check_interval 30
register 0
max_check_attempts1
check_period twicedaily
}
All checks using this template kick off at 8:40 19:50. Since
normal_check_interval is greater than the time period windows, it will
only run once per window.
If there's a better way to do it, I'd like to know as well.

[Nagios-users] PNP performance
Hi, I have Nagios 3.0.6 on FreeBSD 7.1/amd64, with ~1500 services on ~250 hosts. I've been investigating replacing our MRTG setup with PNP. PNP runs fine, and we are keeping about 1450 MRTG graphs. Our plans call for at least doubling the number of services and graphs. Adding process_perfdata.pl has increased the system load from minimal to 10-20. I see that process_perfdata.pl will not run under ePN. Anyone out there have ways to reduce process_perfdata.pl's system load, short of rewriting it in C or making it ePN-friendly?

[Nagios-users] NRPE and redundant calls to remote hosts.
I've been adding a bunch of checks via NRPE on remote nodes and this got me thinking. Isn't it inefficient to keep starting check_nrpe calls from the monitoring host all the time? Why cannot nrpe on the remote node monitor some of the local services and only send a message back to nagios if there is a status change? For warnings based on things like disk usage, cpu usage, total procs, pbs scheduler daemon status , cpu temperatures etc. coudn't this approach relive the central host's cpu of a lot of endless check_nrpe calls? NRPE is already doing the work; its just a question of what initiates a communication channel between NRPE and nagios. Just curious.

[Nagios-users] Nagios remote GUI interface
Just completed an upgrade, from Nagios 1.x to 3.x on separate desktop devices however. On replacement device, I can locally load GUI using http specified to either localhost or actual static ip, but cannot load remotely as I was able to on 1.x device. 1.x was load on REL enterprise 3.x level while 3.x was through Fedora 9/SELinux. My browser fails to present an authentication Window fro the 3.x device. I thought it was the Linux firewall config which I have temporarily disabled while resolving, but still same problem.

I'm glad you asked that. I install everything by the excellent wiki guide and all went well, Nagios started and I added my Servers and Routers and they are logging well, Not got MRTG installed as yet but I can see uptime and such, in all there are 3 Servers a Switch and 1 Network printer Fire up CentreonconfigurationHosts and I add a Cisco 3550, put all my Switch's details in and click save When I look at under home there are no hosts being monitored nor servers.. I then do the following which has complete knocked me for six:- CentreonConfigurationNagios Put tick in the following boxes, Generate Configuration Files, Run Nagios debug, Move export Files and restart Nagios Just gone back to my Nagios page and all my Servers and Switches have gone and been replaced by the 1 Switch I added above, not only that they all show errors, the switch shows it pings ok but the host name is Red, clicking on that it states host down.

Re: [Nagios-users] PNP performance
Hi Michael, I write about how the team I am on at Comcast implemented PNP to scale well on my blog. In a nutshell: * Use modpnpsender.c on your Nagios master (we added in fork() code so that Nagios doesn't pause while modpnpsender sends events .. will be releasing that code as a patch soon). Have modpnpsender send records to a second host. * Set up NPCD on the second host. * Use a small xinetd script to write out PNP records to the NPCD queue (we will be releasing the one we have in place as well soon). We trend on almost 6000 services (~ 1200 hosts) every 5 minutes (runs take about 4 minutes right now to trend on all services). This set up works very well for us and has kept the I/O wait load reasonable on the report server as well as load average. We also send all PNP events to syslog where we have anothr process send them to a long-term data warehouse we use .. and we do our notifications from this second host .. load stays at 2-3 right now. Not bad :). http://www.semintelligent.com/blog/articles/38/nagios-performance-tuning-early-lessons-learned-lessons-shared-part-4-scalable-performance-data-graphing On Fri, Feb 6, 2009 at 2:00 PM, Michael W.

Re: [Nagios-users] PNP performance
That's a thing that an eventbroker module never should do. Think about what a fork() does... Yes, I know, but without forking, our scheduling was skewing way beyond our 5 minute interval due to thousands of checks being sent from the Nagios server to the report server .. so what choice did I have? :) OUr report server can handle thousands of XML files via TCP a minute so we had to make that tradeoff. Our data is being trended in a long term data warehouse so getting all checks done as consistently as possible within a 5 minute interval (all are scheduled at 5 min intervals) is critical for us. So yes, fully aware that a NEB module should not do that but for us it was exactly what we needed to keep the nagios scheduler from skewing check execution times tremendously over a few hours. * Set up NPCD on the second host. * Use a small xinetd script to write out PNP records to the NPCD queue (we will be releasing the one we have in place as well soon).

It's called npcdmod. Will check that out, but we really need to send data to our second server so unless it uses a socket-based system :) I will continue to work with and on modpnpsender. The system I have been describing has been in place for 4+ months and has been very stable .. no segfaults or unexpected behavior. We can discuss more on the PNP mailing list if you would prefer ... I was even thinking of changing from TCP to UDP for the modpnpsender code, that would reduce the impact on the sending system and receiving system and the network traffic between the two systems. Also was going to put the destination host IP, port and the debug flag in an external config file so that the module doesn't have to be recompiled when the destination IP changes :).

[Nagios-users] normal_check_interval misbehaving?
Hi all, I've been scratching my head on this one for a couple days.
I have a service defined that can only run once an hour. If it runs much
more often than that, the check program (which I didn't write) often steps
on its own feet and returns a critical failure. The service runs via NRPE
if that matters...
Anyway, I have the normal_check_interval set to 60, and max_check_attempts
set to 1. So it should run once an hour, and only once even if it fails.
But it runs every 10 minutes instead!
Here is some of my config:
define service {
use active-service
host_name cal-map1
service_description active-remote-spatialsync
check_command check_remote_spatialsync
contact_groups
normal_check_interval 60
max_check_attempts 1
}
define command {
command_namecheck_remote_spatialsync
command_line$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -n -c
check_spatialsync
}
[r...@nagios3 etc]# ssh cal-map1
[r...@cal-map1 ~]# grep check_spatialsync /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg
command[check_spatialsync]=/space/kaapps/sbin/probeSpatialSync
Here is the script (korn-shell wrapper) that runs:
[r...@cal-map1 ~]# cat /space/kaapps/sbin/probeSpatialSync
#!/bin/ksh
date /usr/tmp/spatialsync.runtimes.log
HERE=$(dirname $0)
JAR_DIR=$(cd $HERE/../lib;pwd)
MONITOR_JAR=$JAR_DIR/monitor.jar
PROBE_CLS=com.kelman.monitor.SpatialSyncTester
JAVA_PATH=/usr/java/jdk1.5/bin:/apps/platform/jdk1.5/bin
PATH=$JAVA_PATH:$PATH
exec java -cp $MONITOR_JAR $PROBE_CLS $1
..
I've checked, and the interval_length is set to 60 like I intended it to
be:
[r...@nagios3 etc]# grep interval_length nagios.cfg
interval_length=60
The wrapper that runs on the remote machine is logging the output of the
date command and appending it to a simple log file so I can tell for sure
how often it's being run -- every 10 minutes, like clockwork!
How come 10 minutes and not 60??
My head is hurting from all the scratching. I suspect it's something
stupid and tiny that I've missed, but would appreciate your help, even if
it just points to some arcane area of the documentation.
Thanks!

Re: [Nagios-users] normal_check_interval misbehaving?

Hi all, I've been scratching my head on this one for a couple days.
I have a service defined that can only run once an hour. If it runs
much
more often than that, the check program (which I didn't write) often
steps
on its own feet and returns a critical failure. The service runs
via NRPE
if that matters...
Anyway, I have the normal_check_interval set to 60, and
max_check_attempts
set to 1. So it should run once an hour, and only once even if it
fails.
But it runs every 10 minutes instead!
Here is some of my config:
define service {
use active-service
host_name cal-map1
service_description active-remote-spatialsync
check_command check_remote_spatialsync
contact_groups
normal_check_interval 60
max_check_attempts 1
}

Did it used to be 10 minutes? The config, as you've detailed it, is
correct. I suspect you have multiple nagios daemons running at the
same time, one with a 10 minute interval and one with the 60 minute
interval. Do you, at times about 60 minutes apart, have two that are
logged close to one another? I would stop nagios and use ps to verify
that there isn't another hanging about.

[Nagios-users] NRPE clutters /var/log/messages
My /var/log/messages shows hundreds of entries of this sort: Feb 6 23:33:00 star256 xinetd[15109]: START: nrpe pid=17610 from=:::11.0.0.100 Feb 6 23:33:01 star256 xinetd[15109]: EXIT: nrpe status=0 pid=17610 duration=1(sec) Are they just indicative of normal nrpe operations? If so, how can I disable them so as not to clutter my log? I do have debug=0 in my nrpe.conf. Why still these messages? -- Rahul -- Create and Deploy Rich Internet Apps outside the browser with Adobe(R)AIR(TM) software.
