Re: [Nagios-users] Running Windows batch files through NRPE
Thanks for the posts y'all! I was able to get it running w/ 2 batch files. The first batch file was strictly a file copy script that sent over the config and update script. The second batch uses psexec to run the update script on each windows server. I'm still working out some kinks, but for the most part it's working.

Also make sure the account has access to the batch file. As someone else mentioned it may make more sense to use a scheduled task but it also needs to run as a network account that has access.

Re: [Nagios-users] email attribute in contact
Melanie Pfefer wrote: hi in defining a contact, can we have email attribute have 2 email addresses seperated by a comma? Yes and no. Nagios will never bother with the email address, except for expanding the string you've written there when it's time to notify someone. If your notification script can take care of a comma-separated list of email addresses, then all will be fine. I believe the default notification commands will if you omit the comma and just separate the two (or more) email addresses with spaces. I leave it as an exercise to you to find out if that is actually true or not.

[Nagios-users] hostgroups and service dependencies?
I'm just starting to get into service dependencies. My problem is that I don't quite see how I can get around doing it individually for each and every service and host needed. An example is if I've got 100 Windows servers all configured to be part of a hostgroup. Then I've got a define service { hostgroup_name prod_windows_servers service_description NRPE Service check_command NRPE Service use Production Windows Service } define service { hostgroup_name prod_windows_servers service_description CPU Load check_command check_windows_load!90%!90% use Production Windows Service } define service { hostgroup_name prod_windows_servers service_description C: Drive check_command check_windows_disk!C:!90%!90% use Production Windows Service } where the 100 servers are all part of the 'prod_windows_servers hostgroup. Here I can list the checks nice and compactly and add new hosts/checks merely by putting them in that hostgroup. I would like to make service checks on these boxes dependent on the NRPE Service check above. So if the NRPE service was not responding, Nagios wouldn't bother sending me alerts about all the other things on that box it could not reach. The object definitions seem to say that I can do define servicedependency { hostgroup_name prod_windows_servers service_description NRPE Service dependent_hostgroup_name prod_windows_servers dependent_service_description C: Drive execution_failure_criteria n notification_failure_criteria w,u,c } I'm assuming that this is supposed to match up each 'prod_windows_servers' entry with its matching entry rather than making each server dependent on this servers from *every* other hostgroup member? Just to see, I tried this out and when I did a pre-flight check it took 53 seconds (checking the host and service dependencies) when it normally runs instantly. I'm not sure this does what I want. Even so, I don't know that I can handle the 53 second wait which I imagine would escalate for each service I defined in this way). The only other route I can think of is to create a unique servicedepency definition for each of these. That's 100 x n dependency definitions, where n is the number of other services I'm checking on each of these boxes. Am I looking at this the wrong way? Is there an easier way to do this?

Re: [Nagios-users] differing notifications

I'd love to hear any suggestions. We have two contact groups; group adminmail sends an email to our mailboxes and adminphone sends email to our phones. The idea is when a warning notification happens, adminmail gets notified, and when a critical notification happens adminphone gets notified. As a test I set up two services that check disk. For the first one I set: notification_options w,r contact_group adminmail For the second service I set: notification_options c contact_group adminphone This works, but it's kludgy. Is there a way to define one contact_group for a warning, and a different contact group for critical? We are currently running v1.2(yes, old), but will be upgrading eventually. I'd like to know if there's a solution I can implement now; if we need to upgrade to get this functionality I'd like to know as well. Thanks, Neil http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/xodtemplate.html#contact Just setup two contacts, one for adminmail that gets warnings, the other for adminphone that gets crits. Add them to the same contract_group, then add that contact group to your service check. This style/syntax hasn't changed really, save for in nagios 3.x you don't need the contact group if you don't want it. .r' So, basically you're saying to put both contact_groups (adminmail and adminphone) into a third contact_group, then use that contact_group in the service? How would I then make warning notifications go only to adminmail, and critical notifications go only to adminphone? No, in the individual contacts you can define what sort of notifications that individual contact receives, using the host_notification_options [d,u,r,f,s,n] and service_notification_options [w,u,c,r,f,s,n] directives of the contact. So what you do is make two contacts (not groups, but individual contacts), specifying that adminmail only receives warning (not critical) and adminphone only receives critical (not warning). Add both contacts to a single contact group, add that contact group to the host, and specify that the host send both critical and warning notifications. Due to the filters in the contacts, each contact will only receive the appropriate types. If you have more people you need to contact, just make more contacts for each person, keeping the phone contacts and the mail contacts separate. --- Israel Brewster Computer Support Technician II Frontier Flying Service Inc. 5245 Airport Industrial Rd Fairbanks, AK 99709 (907) 450-7250 x293 --- Thanks, Neil -- Neil Dombrowski Linux Administration Pricegrabber.com AIM: neilatpg -- Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects___ 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 -- Register Now for Creativity and Technology (CaT), June 3rd, NYC.

Re: [Nagios-users] Override a threshold for one host in a template
I had a somewhat similar problem (all of my servers use the same 30 or so services, except one of them doesn't have remote access, so it only needs 29). Here is what I did. It sounds like you did about the same: - create a hostgroup - create 30 services - in each service, specify the corresponding hostgroup_name that it should go into. - make all 30 hosts part of that hostgroup Now to deal with this one server, let's call it problem.server.com for service DIFFICULTSERVICE: In the declaration for DIFFICULTSERVICE, exclude problem.server.com: hostname !problem.server.com Declare another service DIFFICULTSERVICE just for problem.server.com with the correct parameters.

[Nagios-users] Advanced permissions for the web interface
On the Nagios-Users list back in November 2006 there was a discussion about adding advanced permissions to Nagios for hosts and services. Users (including myself) were looking for a way to grant users the ability to view hosts, but not submit commands and to allow for more complex permissions. I also wanted a way to limit which hosts a user would be notified for while still giving them access to view the status in the web interface. The can_submit_commands only helps with part of the problem. I originally created a patch to add advanced permissions for Nagios 2.5-2.8 and have been using it for over two years in production. I created a 3.0 version back in November 2006 before 3.0 was released but I only recently updated it for 3.0.6. The available permissions for each contact / contact group are: Permission Description r View in web interface x Submit commands for this host/service in web interface w Not needed yet. Maybe some of the other programs that allow you to modify the configuration files could use this permission to allow a user to modify the host / service. n Notify if contact has a pager or email defined Example: contact_groups netops:rwxn, helpdesk:r See http://www.fragit.net/nagios.html for more details and the patch. I'm not expecting this to go in to future releases but I hope that similar functionality will be added to any new web interfaces. I wanted to share it in case anyone else has similar needs.

Re: [Nagios-users] Monitoring clustered resources with Windows...
Hi, Why not implement Passive checks. instead of reporting to seperate Host configs have them report to a single host called CLUSTERED then have the passive checks report only OK states, and have the freshness check command report for when both are down.
