Re: [Nagios-users] Monitoring a router
2009/9/2 David Dyer-Bennet d...@dd-b.net: I'm just looking to use it to filter out failure reports from services beyond failed network links. If that's the case I'd recommend maybe implementing your checks solely (and somewhat pedantically) from the perspective of what is useful for Nagios reachability checks. I would set up a host check for each interface on the far side of the router (from the Nagios server), but only for interfaces where there are hosts behind which Nagios is interested in. That way, if the one router interface goes down, or if the whole router goes down, then either way Nagios should handle reachability properly (assuming you've also set the parent relationships on the child nodes correctly too).

[Nagios-users] can nagios take some pro-active actions?
hello everyone. Started to play with Nagios a few days ago and i'm very excited with it.

I know Nagios can send sms, email and other things to warn administrators about problems, but can Nagios take any action to fix the problem, like restart the service if reach critical state, or restart the service if the service stays critical for more than 5 minutes? If yes, can someone just point me to the direction i should go? :) Tks in advance, and sorry about my poor english.

[Nagios-users] Control false-positives alarms
Good morning to all, I was reading the Nagios documentation about service and contact definition and didn’t find any parameter that could be used to control false-positives alarms. For example: the CPU load may vary during a time period (30 minutes) and I would like to receive an alarm message only when the “max_check_attempts” is reached, or only if the CPU load is greater than the critical parameter for X minutes.

Re: [Nagios-users] can nagios take some pro-active actions?
Ok, everyone agrees event handler can take action to fix a problem but bear in mind that this comes with caveats. Affectively, nagios event handler is treating a symptom; the disease goes merely on its way. If a service stops, WHY did it stop in the first place? Most good sysadmins would tackle the problem from the system end to insure that the service would never fail again. Furthermore, let's say a service failed for a reason, eg out of disk space. What good what it do to restart the service again? And if you build smarts into the event handler to look for and fix such a condition, is that the ONLY condition that could occur to stop this service? Having said all this, event handlers do have their place. We in fact use them to shut down hosts if the temperature gets too hot.

Re: [Nagios-users] can nagios take some pro-active actions?
Tks to everyone. Let me explain the situation. The service in question is a software developed by my own company. This service consumes files in a defined directory, generated by other program. This is the metric i use to monitor. Like any software in constant development, it will eventualy crash or freeze. Doing so, the files on the directory end up accumulating. If the number of files cross the threshold, the warn or crit flag is set up. We DO check why the service stoped, but the service must be up and running as fast as possible, so this is why we restart the service. Later we can check what is going wrong. I also made, some months ago, a simple bash script that monitors the # of files, restart the service if necessary and logs this kind of event. What i do not know if this is the best aproach. Nagios gives me the visual tools to se in real time in a big panel if everything is OK with my servers. So i though if it can take proactives actions and if this aproach would be better than my simple scripts. dave stern - e-mail.pluribus.unum escreveu: Ok, everyone agrees event handler can take action to fix a problem but bear in mind that this comes with caveats.

Yeah, i understand that exists some situations that a event handler can't effectively fix something, but reading the documention link you guys send me, it turns out that this is EXACTLY what i'm looking for. check some times, restart, check again, if still down, notify the admin somehow.

Re: [Nagios-users] can nagios take some pro-active actions?
Title: Untitled Document "Ol" Leonardo, Please note that Nagios uses mostly scripts to check services/disk/etc. and that those scripts that 'tell' nagios the status of the service/daemon/disk/etc. That said, I think you should not focus on Nagios to be proactive hence that it's scripts could be used for that. Let's say you have check_http configured to check www.example.com. It would connect to www.example.com on port 80 and report if it suceeds on sending a cmd or not . If something goes wrong, it would send a critical message back. This does not mean that the script is necessarily alerting nagios about the problem, it is alerting whatever called it in the first place. What I mean is, you don't *need* nagios to be in the middle of it and (IMO) you should not try to integrate it into this kind of solution because it would just make things more complicated. One simple way to implement that would be improving the scripts that comes with nagios-plugins. A "simple" if statement and some coding after it would do the trick.

Re: [Nagios-users] can nagios take some pro-active actions?
We use event_handlers EXACTLY as you describe. Let nagios restart service immediately and THEN figure out why it stopped. We all agree that root cause analysis is importantbut often secondary to restoring service. -Original Message- From: Leonardo Carneiro [mailto:lscarne...@veltrac.com.br] Sent: Thursday, September 03, 2009 10:04 AM To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] can nagios take some pro-active actions? Tks to everyone. Let me explain the situation. The service in question is a software developed by my own company. This service consumes files in a defined directory, generated by other program. This is the metric i use to monitor. Like any software in constant development, it will eventualy crash or freeze. Doing so, the files on the directory end up accumulating. If the number of files cross the threshold, the warn or crit flag is set up. We DO check why the service stoped, but the service must be up and running as fast as possible, so this is why we restart the service. Later we can check what is going wrong. I also made, some months ago, a simple bash script that monitors the # of files, restart the service if necessary and logs this kind of event. What i do not know if this is the best aproach. Nagios gives me the visual tools to se in real time in a big panel if everything is OK with my servers. So i though if it can take proactives actions and if this aproach would be better than my simple scripts. dave stern - e-mail.pluribus.unum escreveu: Ok, everyone agrees event handler can take action to fix a problem but bear in mind that this comes with caveats. Affectively, nagios event handler is treating a symptom; the disease goes merely on its way. If a service stops, WHY did it stop in the first place? Most good sysadmins would tackle the problem from the system end to insure that the service would never fail again. Furthermore, let's say a service failed for a reason, eg out of disk space. What good what it do to restart the service again? And if you build smarts into the event handler to look for and fix such a condition, is that the ONLY condition that could occur to stop this service? Having said all this, event handlers do have their place. We in fact use them to shut down hosts if the temperature gets too hot. You can imagine the testing we went through before rolling out something like this. On Thu, Sep 3, 2009 at 7:44 AM, Leonardo Carneirolscarne...@veltrac.com.br wrote: hello everyone.

Re: [Nagios-users] can nagios take some pro-active actions?
Using nagios event_handlers provided a couple benefits. First, you can configure when to restart or correct the service. You can wait for the 2nd or 3rd SOFT non-OK status to perform the corrective action. This takes into account false-positives (as described in another thread today) and will avoid corrective actions when not needed. Second, by using nagios event_handlers, you have a record of all actions in one place, and visibility to the issue.

Olá Leonardo, Please note that Nagios uses mostly scripts to check services/disk/etc. and that those scripts that 'tell' nagios the status of the service/daemon/disk/etc. That said, I think you should not focus on Nagios to be proactive hence that it's scripts could be used for that. Let's say you have check_http configured to check www.example.comhttp://www.example.com. It would connect to www.example.comhttp://www.example.com on port 80 and report if it suceeds on sending a cmd or not . If something goes wrong, it would send a critical message back. This does not mean that the script is necessarily alerting nagios about the problem, it is alerting whatever called it in the first place. What I mean is, you don't *need* nagios to be in the middle of it and (IMO) you should not try to integrate it into this kind of solution because it would just make things more complicated. One simple way to implement that would be improving the scripts that comes with nagios-plugins. A simple if statement and some coding after it would do the trick. If the script already has the capability to check the status of something and be aware of the present status and take active measures .

Re: [Nagios-users] nsclient++ check_nt USEDDISKSPACE Segmentation fault
Hi Thank you for the answer. I don't think the problem is the windows update. I think that there is a problem that showed up only after the windows update. And the problem is: accessing the drive C from a service I get this error: Could not get free space for: c: c: reason: 32: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. In other words: a permission denied. And, if this is true, don't solve it setting up another way to perform my check. Is there anybody who already had this problem and can help me solve it? I already tried to run the nsclient++ service as system account and as administrator (with its password). Same result. Thank you.

Does Netcool have a trap receiver? If so, you can forward alerts with
SNMP. We forward Nagios notifications to Spectrum by sending them as
traps using the NAGIOS-NOTIFY-MIB service and host events .. works
quite well.

Nagios doesn't run this as root, you shouldn't either. Permission

integrating something new. Also note that the way you are testing is
different than the command_line you specify above in many ways.

[Nagios-users] using OCP daemon
HI, I am evaluting OCP daemon in order to improve performance of sending check results from one nagios machine A to another. The nagios on machine A is also using pnp4nagios to show graphical results. I noticed the following in http://wiki.nagios.org/index.php/OCP_Daemon.

Re: [Nagios-users] can nagios take some pro-active actions?

Let's say you have check_http configured to check www.example.com. It would connect to www.example.com on port 80 and report if it suceeds on sending a cmd or not . If something goes wrong, it would send a critical message back. This does not mean that the script is necessarily alerting nagios about the problem, it is alerting whatever called it in the first place. What I mean is, you don't *need* nagios to be in the middle of it and (IMO) you should not try to integrate it into this kind of solution because it would just make things more complicated. One simple way to implement that would be improving the scripts that comes with nagios-plugins. A simple if statement and some coding after it would do the trick. If the script already has the capability to check the status of something and be aware of the present status and take active measures . Interfere with the function that prints the message CRITICAL to make it, for eg., ssh -T host /etc/init.d/apache2 restart. I have used the scripts from Nagios in a similar way: a project (extotest) using Nagios plugins and autotools' autotest to check all critical services before and after complex firewall ACL changes. It's similar in that it leverages the good work of many contributors but doesn't use the Nagios Core as an engine. In your case, a cronjob might suffice: #!bash case $(check_http -opt -opt) in OK*) exit 0 ;; *) exec /etc/init.d/httpd restart ;; esac Allan -- http://tech.chickenandporn.com/tags/nagios -- Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.

That's only if you use the Nagios performance data files for feeding pnp4nagios. If you have a command defined for each service that won't be a proble... Same if you use the central nagios for performance data processing. If you need this feature though let me know and I'll add it... It's pretty simple as long ad you don't need any special file rotation feature than Nagios provide. - -- Thomas -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFKoEv86dZ+Kt5BchYRAt53AJ4nurQfe1U4ITXY0lxBeoIidUSr7gCeOBOM ooyX/vhoAvFSM/lNEhc592E= =OxiL -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
