Re: [Nagios-users-br] Ndoutils e problemas de performance
Cristiano, Tenho um ambiente bem parecido, atualmente sao 4300 services e os mesmos problemas de performance acontecem com o ndoutil. Pelo que li, ele realmente eh sequencial. Quando eh necessario um reload o nagios ainda tem que atualizar todos os dados no mysql antes do nagvis ficar disponivel. Pelo jeito a solucao eh esperar uma alternativa ao ndoutil ou uma correçao do mesmo. A unica coisa que fiz e que voce nao fez ainda eh agendar manutencao diaria no bd: db=nagios echo USE $db; DELETE FROM nagios_servicechecks WHERE start_time = (NOW() - INTERVAL 1 DAY) | mysql $MYSQL_LOGIN /dev/null echo USE $db; DELETE FROM nagios_hostchecks WHERE start_time = (NOW() - INTERVAL 1 DAY) | mysql $MYSQL_LOGIN /dev/null for db in $(echo SHOW DATABASES; | mysql $MYSQL_LOGIN | grep -v -e Database -e information_schema -e test) do TABLES=$(echo USE $db; SHOW TABLES; | mysql $MYSQL_LOGIN | grep -v Tables_in_) echo Switching to database $db for table in $TABLES do echo -n * Optimizing table $table ... echo USE $db; OPTIMIZE TABLE $table | mysql $MYSQL_LOGIN /dev/null echo done. done done As tabelas nagios_servicechecks e nagios_hostchecks sao apenas de historico e os dados antigos podem ser deletados ja que os logs ja tem a informacao. Se voce teve algum progresso, favor nos reportar. Atenciosamente, Leonardo Neves Bernardo Linux/Unix Specialist LPIC3 (core+mixed environment+security) + RHCT 2009/5/7 Cristiano Casado co.cas...@gmail.com Olá a todos. Estou utilizando em ambiente de laboratório o Nagios 3.0.6 com ndoutils 1.4b7 e MySQL 5.0 em uma máquina Linux CentOS 5.2 (2.6.18) x64 com 2GB ram e processador Intel Xeon 2.50GHz. Optei em utilizar o ndoutils para manter informacoes históricas de checks no banco de dados (tables nagios_servicechecks e nagios_hostcheks), assim como utilizar o NagVis para representacao gráfica das minhas redes. Os testes funcionais foram bons, porém cheguei ao ponto do projeto em que tive que fazer um benchmark com um número de 7.000 services, simulando o que vou encontrar em ambiente de producao. Carregando o broker ndomod porém sem executar o daemon ndo2db consigo uma performance boa de service checks com quase 95% dos services sendo processados na janela de 5 min e com uma latência de check baixa. Importante ressaltar que todos os services são ativos (não passivos) com check_interval de 5 minutos. Ao executar o daemon ndo2db, onde o mesmo inicializa o socket unix e comeca as operacoes em banco de dados, percebo uma perda considerável de performance do service check com apenas 9% dos services sendo processados na janela de 5 min, latência alta de checks e o contador de iowait da CPU entre 90% e 100%. Services que deveriam ser processados pelo daemon do Nagios em 5 min são processados com delay de até 1 hora, o que inviabiliza a solucao como ferramenta de monitoracao. Como o MySQL está na mesma máquina, fiz o tunning nele (buffer, threads, etc), apliquei índices adicionais as tabelas e testei passando as tabelas do database nagios para o esquema blackhole. Desta forma o banco aceita conexões e operacoes (select, insert, delete, ...) porém não grava os dados em disco. O iowait continuou alto e a performance ruim. Não desconfio mais do banco de dados. Percebi que o daemon do ndo2db utiliza apenas 1 conexão com o banco de dados para fazer diversas operacoes por segundo, sendo que cada operacao aguarda o final da execucao anterior. O que particularmente acho ruim. Pergunta: alguém utiliza as facilidades do ndoutils com banco de dados em grande instalacoes do Nagios ( 1500 hosts 7000 services) e que não tenha estes problemas de performance para me dar uma luz ? As configuracoes do Nagios estão abaixo. Segui algumas recomendacoes de tunning para o Nagios do documento http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/tuning.html Obrigado.

We had some problems with our nagios server a couple of weeks ago and we believe it is related to mysql performance, we could see that the mysql process was consumming from 80 to 90 % of the CPU in the monitoring server at certain times. We could solve the problem by applying a couple of indexes to the nagios database (the one used by ndoutils) as recommended in thread: http://www.mail-archive.com/nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg23943.html Afterwords we enabled monitoring for the nagios database by using the check_mysql_health plugin and we see that the index usage for the nagios database is under 10%. I am not a Database Administrator but I believe this is a very low index usage.

[Nagios-users] NRPE permissions problem
I have a Nagios server 3.0.6 running on Ubuntu 8.04 Server. It is
monitoring all things fine on multiple targets except the one below.
On a certain target, I am trying to monitor my /var/log/auth.log file for
bad activity, such as failed password attempts, or attempts to login as
invalid users, etc.
I am trying to do this via the check_log plugin via nrpe, but, I get a Log
check error: Log file /var/log/auth.log is not readable! when the server
checks on it.
The easiest way I have to reproduce the error is the following manually
executed command from the host server:
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H target -c check_badpw
I know that it means that the file cannot be opened during the check, but, I
don't understand why.
ls -l of /var/log/auth.log:
-rw-r- 1 syslog adm 1590863 2009-05-12 10:47 /var/log/auth.log
In /etc/groups, I have added the nagios user to the adm group, so I would
think it should work.
Further, if I am logged in as root on the target, and do su - nagios, I
can read /var/log/auth.log
Further, if I chmod o+r /var/log/auth.log, the command executes properly.
Additionally, when I am logged into the target as root, and su to nagios and
execute the command as defined in nrpe.cfg:
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_log -F /var/log/auth.log -O
/usr/local/nagios/auth.badpasswords.log -q : Failed password for
it works fine.
So, I know it will work if I loosen the permissions on /var/log/auth.log,
but, I'd prefer to keep them as tight as possible.
When I am logged into the target as nagios and execute id, I get,
uid=5308(nagios) gid=5309(nagios) groups=4(adm),5309(nagios)
When I embed id into the check_log script, I get:
uid=5308(nagios) gid=5309(nagios)
so, it would seem that it does not inherit the groups as I would assume it
would.
More configuration information:
nrpe runs under xinetd on the target:
service nrpe
{
flags = REUSE
socket_type = stream
port= 5666
wait= no
user= nagios
group = nagios
server = /usr/local/nagios/bin/nrpe
server_args = -c /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg --inetd
log_on_failure += USERID
disable = no
only_from = 127.0.0.1 x.x.x.226
}
How can I determine why the check_nrpe command does not allow for reading of
the /var/log/auth.log file on the target machine?

I'm certain this was recently discussed but my search-fu is weak this morning. It might have been on -devel or nagios-plugins though... I didn't follow closely but the gist of it (I believe) is that xinetd drops/ignores any secondary groups the user is a member of before starting the server. No secondary groups, no access in your case. Looking at my xinetd.conf man page, I see the following which may help.

[Nagios-users] NRPE permissions problem
I have a Nagios server 3.0.6 running on Ubuntu 8.04 Server. It is monitoring
all things fine on multiple targets except the one below.
On a certain target, I am trying to monitor my /var/log/auth.log file for bad
activity, such as failed password attempts, or attempts to login as invalid
users, etc.
I am trying to do this via the check_log plugin via nrpe, but, I get a Log
check error: Log file /var/log/auth.log is not readable! when the server checks
on it.
The easiest way I have to reproduce the error is the following manually executed
command from the host server:
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H target -c check_badpw
I know that it means that the file cannot be opened during the check, but, I
don't understand why.
ls -l of /var/log/auth.log:
-rw-r- 1 syslog adm 1590863 2009-05-12 10:47 /var/log/auth.log
In /etc/groups, I have added the nagios user to the adm group, so I would
think it should work.
Further, if I am logged in as root on the target, and do su - nagios, I can
read /var/log/auth.log
Further, if I chmod o+r /var/log/auth.log, the command executes properly.
Additionally, when I am logged into the target as root, and su to nagios and
execute the command as defined in nrpe.cfg:
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_log -F /var/log/auth.log -O
/usr/local/nagios/auth.badpasswords.log -q : Failed password for
it works fine.
So, I know it will work if I loosen the permissions on /var/log/auth.log, but,
I'd prefer to keep them as tight as possible.
When I am logged into the target as nagios and execute id, I get,
uid=5308(nagios) gid=5309(nagios) groups=4(adm),5309(nagios)
When I embed id into the check_log script, I get:
uid=5308(nagios) gid=5309(nagios)
so, it would seem that it does not inherit the groups as I would assume it
would.
More configuration information:
nrpe runs under xinetd on the target:
service nrpe
{
flags = REUSE
socket_type = stream
port= 5666
wait= no
user= nagios
group = nagios
server = /usr/local/nagios/bin/nrpe
server_args = -c /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg --inetd
log_on_failure += USERID
disable = no
only_from = 127.0.0.1 x.x.x.226
}
How can I determine why the check_nrpe command does not allow for reading of the
/var/log/auth.log file on the target machine?

[Nagios-users] Reporting issue
We;re currently using 3.06 in Production. We use a custom availability timeframe to run reports every month to report availability data to Mgmt. We noticed a change in behavior over the past couple months that has us puzzled. When we run an availability report for the past month and choose the custom report period, it reports the duration as 30 days. Seems logical as that is the elapsed time of the report, but in the past, nagios would calculate that duration as the maximum availability based on the custom timeperiod we used to generate the report. To make this a bit clearer, if our Production time was 18 hrs/day M-F and we defined that as Corp_Prod and we ran the report against it for, say, April 09. Nagios would have reported the Duration as 396 hours (22days x 18hrs/day). However, in recent months we're noticing that Nagios report the calendar duration of the report with no regard for the customer timeperiod. Any ideas whether something has changed or if we're doing something wrong? Thanks \\Greg -- The NEW KODAK i700 Series Scanners deliver under ANY circumstances!

Re: [Nagios-users] Help with graphing
I read through and followed Wolfgang Barth's Nagios 2nd Edition for my Nagios 3/x install. Its been extremely helpful and covers lots of options. For graphing, it covered multiple options with reasons for each, including Nagiosgraph, Perf2rrd, drraw, NagiosGrapher, and PNP. After reading about them all and and such, I decided on PNP (pnp4nagios) as it was the best mix of ease of installation combined with functionality. Most that were easy to install were also somewhat limited. Those that were unlimited in scope were also difficult to install. pnp4nagios struck a good balance between both. There were some tweaks to make, though, so for this reason I recommend pnp4nagios but I also recommend Nagios 2nd Edition as it has all the changes and caveats covered. A.

[Nagios-users] Assigning contacts to hosts confusion
Hi All, Can someone help me understand the best way to assign contacts to hosts en masse? In version 1.x, we would create a hostgroup put the hosts that we needed in it and then assign a contact group to that hostgroup, done deal. Now it appears that under Nagios 3 to accomplish the same thing I have to create the hostgroup as before and then go to each host and assign a contact or contact group to it. That's much more tedious than the old way, am I missing something? Please tell me there's an easier way that I'm overlooking. I found this in the what's new in Nagios 2 doc's (http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/whatsnew.html): Contact group changes - The contact_groups directive has been moved from hostgroup definitions to host definitions xodtemplate.html . This was done in order to maintain consistency with the way service contacts are specified. Make sure to update your config files!

Re: [Nagios-users] Assigning contacts to hosts confusion
Hi,

Can someone help me understand the best way to assign contacts to hosts
en masse? In version 1.x, we would create a hostgroup put the hosts that
we needed in it and then assign a contact group to that hostgroup, done
deal. Now it appears that under Nagios 3 to accomplish the same thing I
have to create the hostgroup as before and then go to each host and
assign a contact or contact group to it. That's much more tedious than
the old way, am I missing something? Please tell me there's an easier
way that I'm overlooking.
Create a host template and assign your contacts there.
If you need to *override* contacts inherited from the template, do it in
the host declaration itself like you would normally do. Exemple:
define host {
address 127.0.0.1
alias localhost
contactsjust_this_one
host_name localhost
use generic-host
}
If you need to *add* contacts to the list of contacts already inherited
from the template, add a + in front of the list of contacts in the
host declaration. Example:
define host {
address 127.0.0.1
alias localhost
contacts+oh_and_add_this_one_too
host_name localhost
use generic-host
}

[Nagios-users] Help with active web testing
Hi all, I've been using nagios for a while, and we're needing to perform more active testing on our site than simply HTTP GET and POST operations. I'm looking for a plugin to Nagios that can execute steps and report that assertions passed or failed. I took at look at web inject, but we can only use it on a handful of our pages as Javascript isn't supported. A lot of our pages update using Prototype and dynamic lists, so this won't allow us to create all the transactions we want. Does anyone know of anything that can use xulrunner to load the firefox engine and report back to nagios?

Re: [Nagios-users] My issue with Nagios
Hi, It proboly is 1.3 if there is no windows config file. Nagios 1.X did not have a windows config. that was added in either Nagios 2.X or 3.X. but basically it is just a regular config file that sets up a few templets. for monitoring a windows system. I Do not recomend using it, PROVIDED you read the Windows section of the 3.X manual since it lays out how to monitor a windows system.
