when a host is down - ping will not respond , so this is a basic assumption you
can work from :
define servicedependency{
host_name host
service_description PING
dependent_host_namehost
dependent_service_description load,disk,
execution_failure_criteria c,u,w
notification_failure_criteria c,u,w
}
Also i advise you to read this :
http://nagios.telecity1.uk.ssp/docs/dependencies.html
Be advised though a large number of dependencies will increase the load on the
machine and will
cause some preformance change.

Therefore, you will have to find a device that you can query by SNMP (or some other means) to obtain the temperature reading. APC makes environmental monitors capable of this.

[Nagios-users] check_command instant feedback
Hello, I'd like to be able to run a check_command from the command line and have it return feedback immediately (versus a forced-check from the webui). Is this possible? The reason for this is that I'm trying to throw together a simple web interface and when the user clicks 'recheck' a window will pop up with the results of that particular service's check_command. I thought about parsing the commands.cfg file for the command and then looping through the $ARGX$ fields and plugging in the correct values - but this seems extremely complicated (what with dealing with commands with variable-length fields, user macros, etc.).

[Nagios-users] Help with installation past the first host/switch/service
I have nagios 3.x setup and installed on Fedora 10. Works fine but I only have 1 server, 1 switch, 1 printer, 1 windows server setup. How do you add more of the same type? The instructions (all that I could find) say "Do this for the first one" but then fall silent on what to do with the second, third etc. The same thing goes for the switches and any other device or "host" Any insight would be appreciated even a good pointer to a How-To. All of my searches have failed to provide any insight into this. TIA John J. Boris, Sr. JEN-A-SyS Administrator Archdiocese of Philadelphia "Remember!

[Nagios-users] Each switch in a file .cfg
I started one job with a NAGIOS at a big network. My first ideia was monitoring all switchs on this network. I put all switch configuration in the file: /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/switch.cfg I hope that I can create configuration files to each switch, one file per switch, and make a reference to switchs on this file: /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg. In this file i uncomment a line /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/switch.cfg to make use actual configuration. I tried made a reference to other files, that i had created but the Nagios don´t restarted with other references in /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg.

Re: [Nagios-users] nagios 3.0.3 on FreeBSD defunct process
That sounds very familiar to the locking/contention issue FreeBSD 7.x has with Nagios 2.x. It has to do with how Nagios and FreeBSD handle threading. Unfortunately I don’t have any answers on how to fix it. I’ve had to leave my Nagios deployment on FreeBSD 6/Nagios 2 for the same reason: anything newer would lock up due to defunct Nagios processes.

Re: [Nagios-users] unable to use check_http with oracle applicationserver
Yeah I saw that, which is why I opened the ticket with Oracle. When I remove the -S switch, it just reports that it gets no data back from the server. And I know for a fact it actually is using SSL.

[Nagios-users] Help - minor issue (host detail vs. service detail)
Hello,
I am new to Nagios and this users list so forgive me if I am doing this
incorrectly
I just recently added a bunch of new hosts to our nagios config everthing seems
to be working great :-)
Except...
when I display the Host Detail Page under the column Last Check it says NA and
there is no Status Information BUT
when I display the Services Detail Page the information for Last Check and
Status Information is displayed for every host defined!
I have looked & looked but am unsure where (which config file to check) or why
this is the case
this is only happening for my newly defined hosts the old hosts are each
defined in their own .cfg files
below are the config files I thought might be helpful...

If I understand what you're saying correctly, this is OK and expected. Based on your provided configuration, the status of the host will not be checked until a service on that host fails. The logic being that if a service is up on the host, the host itself must be up so there's no need to check it; just assume it's OK. Once a service failure happens, nagios then checks the host to make sure it wasn't the cause of the service failure and it's status, and Status Information will be updated appropriately. -- Marc -- ___ 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

Re: [Nagios-users] Help please - test works fine EXCEPT over NRPE???
Can you add a line to your /etc/xinetd.d/nrpe to run as a different user. Something like like: user = nagios-nrpe Next create that user in /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow, and /etc/group The user doesn't need a passwd set or a login shell. Next add the user to the groups needed to see the logs, or set-up sudo for that user to see the logs? I think giving 'nobody' sudo rights isn't the best route.

No, you defined the command 'check_prov', not 'check_nrpe'. Nagios is
correctly telling you that there is no command{} definition with a
command_name of check_nrpe.
> From the documentation the check_command should be "check_nrpe!

You're mixing a few things seemingly without really understanding how
they go together.
A service{} definition with a check_command of 'check_nrpe!check_prov'
will look for a command{} definition named 'check_nrpe' and expect to
pass to it a $ARG1$ of 'check_prov' --
define command{
command_namecheck_nrpe
command_line$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS -c $ARG1$
}
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/objectdefinitions.html#command
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/macros.html - Example 2
Nagios will interpret the above command_line and execute '/path/to/
plugins/check_nrpe -H -c check_prov.
check_nrpe will contact the NRPE daemon running on and ask it to run the command 'check_prov', which
must be defined in the nrpe.cfg file on that remote host. The results
are automatically returned to nagios by the check_nrpe daemon.

So, you're stating that you've got other nrpe checks working fine on the clients and that nrpe is running under xinetd? If not, try running nrpe as a standalone daemon. Next step, open the log files and check_logs.pl script to the user nobody so you avoid have to run the script under a sudo call...

[Nagios-users] Essential parameter to a big network with big problems
Good night, Today in the afternoon launched a thread on this list with the title: Each switch in the .cfg file. Was great pressure at work and just jumping some steps that I want to correct now. My name is Renato Krause and I have 26 years. I live in Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. My English is not very good then I would like to apologize for my words. I work for the government of the state, more specific in public coffers. My expertise is in information technology development but recently I have worked in multi-sector IT body. My current job is working on top of several faults that are occurring in the network. The state of our network is chaotic. I imagine that the first step that I take is to examine the current situation. After some research began by installing the Nagios packages .deb. Use a little and by the plugin that feeds data from the log files of the MRTG, noticed that is a great tool that can produce excellent results with the addition of your Nagios plugin for snmp. Now i using a nagios build from source like a manual. In this difficult task with two colleagues tale. Our network has about 2,000 desktop computers and covers our state has about 282,062 square kilometers. Our capital has two buildings side by side with most of the equipment. Each building has a backbone connected to a Extreme switch along with the servers. Each of the two backbone distributes the network to other switchs responsible for each floor. Unfortunately my knowledge in networks are not very detailed. I Watched: ifInError, ifOutError, ifInDiscard, ifOutDiscard addition to other services standards posted on the Nagios manual. The intention of my post is whether anyone in this list can help me with some idea about what parameters do I track to begin to identify or eliminate the problems in our network. Currently the switchs has stopped responding and often do not last seconds running when reset. These switchs the times spend hours working well. In view the current event has been somewhat random. Now thanks to a big, warm hug to all.
