[Nagios-users-br] Monitoração hosts Windows re motos

2009-11-17 Thread benedito.ramos
Jotagera,

Segui novamente seu conselho e instalei/configurei o NSCA para enviar as 
mensagens.
Ainda não testei no Windows, mas testei no Linux.
Seguinte: 

Fiz um arquivo chamado testensca contendo a seguinte linha, que peguei n 
tutorial:

localhost   TestMessage 0   Teste

E aí dei o comando:

# /usr/local/nagios/bin/send_nsca localhost -c 
/usr/local/nagios/etc/send_nsca.cfg  /usr/local/nagios/testensca

Ele retorna a seguinte mensagem:

1 data packet(s) sent to host successfully.

Pelo que diz no tutorial, significa que o NSCA está funcionando OK.

Só tenho uma dúvida: PARA ONDE FOI ESSA MENSAGEM TESTE?

Procurei nos arquivos /var/log/syslog, /var/log/message, /var/log/daemon, etc e 
não acho nem a pau.

Poderia dar uma luz?

Pois preciso saber onde está essa mensagem para poder tratar e mandar pro 
nagios.

Aguardo.

Grato.

Abraço

Diramos

Ôpa

trap eu não sei, mas se voce tem um script e é este script que testa de
alguma maneira se o backup está OK ou não, use o nsca para mandar para o
nagios o resultado...



2009/11/13 benedito.ra...@caixa.gov.br

 Beleza, Jotagera.

 Entendi. E até fiz uns testes.

 Mas percebi que no meu caso, esses contadores não ajudam muito, pois o
 servidores são de arquivos e backup, exclusivamente.

 Então, não haverá contador para eles.

 Mas estive pensando em outra coisa, talvez você possa ajudar.

 Eu ativei o serviço SNMP do Servidor Windows2003 e Do Nagios.

 Os traps de sistema estão chegando lá bonitinho.

 Só que percebi que o ntbackup (software da Microsoft que utilizo para fazer
 backup) não gera trap nenhum.

 Então não chega lá no Nagios.

 Aí pensei o seguinte:

 O backup que eu faço (agendado) é através de um script que fiz. Ele gera um
 log em .txt com o histórico do backup, inclusive contendo mensagens se
 terminou com sucesso ou não.

 O que eu precisaria então é ler esse arquivo e mandar um trap SNMP para o
 servidor Nagios com uma mensagem, por exemplo, Backup realizado com
 Sucesso.

 Aí lá eu trataria e enviaria para o Nagios através de um plugin que eu já
 fiz aqui e funciona.

 Só não sei como enviar essa trap de mensagem personalizada.

 ENTÃO EU PERGUNTO: será que existe algum comando SNMP que envie trap
  personalizada, além daquelas automáticas de sistema?



 Se puderem retornar, agradeço bastante.

 Oi



 Não esquenta com o moderador. Eu sou o terceiro responsável... Só que o
 primeiro (criador da lista) e o segundo sumiram... 



 Dá pouco trabalho...



 Quanto aos comandos que podem ser consultados, realmente não sei ao certo
 porque windows não é bem minha praia, mas qualquer coisa que voce pode
 colocar no perfmon pode ser monitorada com uma linha similar a esta.



 No windows xp (que estou pilotando agora), vou em

 painel de controle

   ferramentas administrativas

  desempenho



 Este é o aplicativo que o pessoal do windows chama de perfmon.



 clicando com o clique da direita no gráfico, podem ser escolhidos
 contadores para incluir. Escolhe o tipo de objeto de desempenho, depois o
 contador e depois a instância.



 Depos de instalar o exchange, sql server, iis, oracle, lotus notes e (com
 certeza) outros, eles incluem um novo objeto de desempenho para este novo
 aplicativo... Simples e bacaninha...



 Observe que o \\ no linux é traduzido em uma barra só...



 Sempre que precisar pode perguntar. Mande tambem para o forum boas

 Caro Jotagera,



 Não sabia que você era o moderador do site!

 E eu falando mal. Hehehe. Desculpa! J



 Informações valiosíssimas essas que você me passou desde que iniciei o
 tópico.

 Muito obrigado!



 Achei muito interessante o comando:



 $USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 1248 -t 30 -v COUNTER -l
 \\MSExchangeMTA\\Work Queue Length,Total de mensagens a serem entregues
 %.0f  -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$



 Aí eu pergunto: onde conseguir uma lista de todos os parâmetros similares a
 \\MSExchangeMTA\\Work Queue Length, possíveis para passar?

 Tem algum artigo?

 Pois, a partir daí vou testando aqui e vejo o que me serve.



 Mui grato!



 PS: fico devendo mais essa. E prometo colaborar mais com o fórum, como
 forma de te aliviar de tanto trampo.



 Abraço,

Sean,

O plugin deve escrever a saída da execução do comando em STDOUT e em nenhum
outro (STDERR por exemplo).

Se o plugin estiver escrevendo o output em stderr, considere ustilizar 21
para a saída forçadamente ir pra STDOUT.

Olá

Como voce recebeu a mensagem 1 data packet(s) sent to host successfully. é
porque o nsca está rodando corretamente no servidor do Nagios. O nsca
entregou esta mensagem no nagios direto.

O que voce fez foi mandar um status passivo do serviço TestMessate no host
localhost com resultado 0 (OK) e com  a informação adicional Teste.

Se voce garimpar o arquivo nagios.log voce verá registrado lá este
input.

Ou então, veja no nsca.cfg se o log está habilitado. Ele faz log no
syslog...

[Nagios-users] Sending mails - first post

2009-11-17 Thread Cosmin Neagu
Hello everybody,
First time here, so if it is a stupid questions, sorry for that.
I have just installed nagios 3.2.0 an have some host and services 
monitoring.
Is installed on SuSE 10.2. The only thing that i don't know hot to do, 
is making nagios to send emails. Never configured stuff relating to 
emails before.
 From what i see from commands.cfg, by default it tries to send email 
with: /usr/bin/mail -s.
But the email ends up in a local folder /var/mail/cosmin.
Can anyone help me with some documentation or some advice on how can i 
make nagios send emails?
Thanks.

 Subject: [Nagios-users] What would you want in a replacement web
 interface?
 
 Hi there.  I've been working on a replacement web interface for Nagios,
 and it's coming along great!  However, I wanted to take the time to ask
 the community some questions to get your feedback and roll it into the
 interface.
 
 
 So I have 3 questions to ask you all.  If you could answer with as much
 detail as possible, it would be fantastic.
 
 #1) What is the most important thing you want to see in a Tactical
 Overview replacement?  What are the most essential components?

My main screen is the service problems, not the tactical overview. Maybe the 
tactical overview could (optionally) contain a list of all service problems?

 #2) When looking at a Host or a Service, what are the details you
 want/need to see?  What can you not live without?

For those people who use the FQDN as host name, I would love to see a way to 
sort hosts by domain. The sort should not be case sensitive. OK, that's not 
directly an answer to your question, but for me it's a little thing that would 
help enormously.

When monitoring hosts in several different domains, the host list is sorted by 
host name; domains aren't grouped together. Also, FQDNs aren't case sensitive, 
but Nagios is. That's primarily an issue when monitoring Windows servers.

 #3) What is your biggest gripe regarding the existing Nagios web user
 interface?

The Nagios navigation is too closely tied to the content. What I'd love to see 
is Nagios being a set of individual snippets that you can embed in your own Web 
site (plus a framework that ties them all together for those people who want to 
use it the current way). In my case, for instance, I'd love to be able to embed 
Nagios into Joomla pages. If the user clicks on a link within one of the Nagios 
pages (say, clicks on a service to see service details), it should be possible 
to forward such a click to the page that Nagios is embedded into and let the 
framework handle navigation.

A session-based authentication scheme would be nice.

The ultimate goal would be single-sign-on support; when logged into one of the 
common frameworks (in my case, again, Joomla), there should be a way for Nagios 
to retrieve the user name and password from the parent session without 
exposing the password.

Nagios is correctly sending emails via the OS system utilities.  Now 
what you really want is for the OS to push them somewhere else.

I use SuSE Linux here and it  uses Postfix for email and I know how to 
forward email and setup Postfix when forwarding to another server to use 
smtp auth.  If you need a bit of advice on Postfix, let me know.

 Hi all -
 
 Can you please help with the issue?

You problem is to vague at this point; too many possibilities. It would help if 
you provided real configuration information (host{} definitions, service{} 
definitions from objects.cache). A pointer to the instructions you used for 
installation would help give context on the steps you took as well.

 Hi All -
 
   I have installed Nagios on solaris. I have defined a

   I have also define host  in localhost.cfg for the new host
   I have added the command in commands.cfg and I have

It sounds like you're not using a fully-qualifed email address for your 
contact{} (addr...@domain.com) or else the local SMTP server running on your 
nagios box believes that it is responsible for the @domain.com you're sending

Looks like it is sending mail, and that mail is being delivered locally.
When you configured Nagios to send e-mail, what e-mail address did you tell
it to send to?

Also, look for a file called /etc/aliases.  Open it, and see if there is a
line like:

root:  cosmin

The name on the left may match the e-mail address you gave nagios, and the
aliases file is re-directing that mail to the local user cosmin.  Replace
cosmin with an e-mail address on a different domain.  Or modify Nagios to
send to a an e-mail address on a domain different than the local machine.
 Or configure the e-mail client on your computer to check the e-mail account
on your Nagios machine.

I'm going to make a couple guesses in the absence of any real 
configuration information and guess that you're not running scheduled 
checks on your hosts and that you haven't defined any services. If 
that's the case, what you're seeing would be perfectly normal.

[Nagios-users] Odd NRPE issue - variable not printing

2009-11-17 Thread Steve Shepherd
Hello,

Using NRPE 2.12 and have an issue with a variable from a perl script not
being printed.

The script works fine when executed manually using the 'nagios' user which
NRPE is running as:

sh-2.05a$ /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_apache

OK - 68 requests being processed.


However, via NRPE:

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H localhost -c check_apache

OK -  requests being processed.


Below is the script.  I've tried many different code variations, but end
result is the same.  I appreciate any insight as to what the issue could
be.  Thanks!

#!/usr/bin/perl

 $OK   = 0;
 $WARNING  = 1;
 $CRITICAL = 2;

 $status   = $OK;
 $returnstring = ;

[Nagios-users] Custom Macros in Service Definitions?

2009-11-17 Thread Marcel
Hi,

I have several webservers that have over 20 (virtual)interfaces each.

So I've defined the host with custom macros for each private IP:

define host{
   use  linux-server
   _ip_private_VIP_1 10.4.200.101
   _ip_private_VIP_2 10.4.201.101
   ...
   }

Now I want to refer to this $_HOSTip_provate_VIP_1$ macro in services
definitions, but nagios is complaining about not finding the service.

The documentation isn't clear whether or not custom macros could be used in
service definitions.

I've a command like this:

define command{
   command_name   check_http_str_return_args
   command_line  $USER1$/check_http -I $ARG1$ $ARG2$
   }

And the service definition:

define service{
   use generic-service
   (...)
   check_command check_http_str_return_args!$_HOSTip_private_VIP_1$!-u / -t
10 -w 3 -c 5 -e HTTP/1.1 200 OK
   }

My question is:

Is it by design that custom macros should NOT be used in service
definitions?

Because I'd need to create ONE COMMAND per VIP just to use custom macros?

I would like to set just one services, to use just ONE command, and be able
to check the whole webserver farm.

Best regards,
Marcel

I must admit to see this kind of thing myself from time to time.  Although to 
me, it seems more like perl than NRPE.  In a broader context the issue is about 
getting something different when running from the command line versus running 
through Nagios.

One that comes to mind that looks for processes consuming lots of CPU will tell 
me the specific process name when run from the command line, but tells me only 
java when run automatically via Nagios.

I have another script that runs great from the command-line, but blows up when 
it runs through Nagios.

I haven't had the time to dig in as much as I'd like and Nagios itself does 
not, unfortunately, provide much useful info from what I've seen to help you 
debug plugin problems.  In this case though, I'm a little suspicious of ePN 
causing the different behavior as that's what's really different between my 
command-line runs and Nagios' automatic runs.

Re: [Nagios-users] Odd NRPE issue - variable not printing

2009-11-17 Thread Morris, Patrick
Sorry, I meant to say the NRPE user, but it's early and I'd also misread 
the original statement.  Coffee should be kicking in any time now.

Anyway, based on that, I'd guess it's failing on the @lines = 
`$apache_tool`; line, since it doesn't seem to be picking up anything 
at all. How is check_apache defined in the NRPE config?  I'm wondering 
if it's being called in a way that isn't allowing external shell commands.

[Nagios-users] MACRO SPANNING

Hi,

Do nagios does multiple MACRO SPANNING?

I mean... If I define a service with a custom host macro
$_HOST_ip_private_VIP_1$, and the command is defined as $USER1$/check_http
-I $ARG1$, is Nagios able to span the $_HOST_ip_private_VIP_1$ macro when
substituting it by $ARG1$ ??

Has anyone seen this, know what it is, and what steps can be done to stop it
from occurring? Thanks.

Re: [Nagios-users] Custom Macros in Service Definitions?

 Now I want to refer to this $_HOSTip_provate_VIP_1$ macro in services

What is the exact error that you are seeing? I can't see how a problem with 
that macro substitution would generate any error about 'not finding the 
service'.

 The documentation isn't clear whether or not custom macros could be used in 
 service definitions. 
 
 I've a command like this: 
 
 define command{
command_name   check_http_str_return_args
command_line  $USER1$/check_http -I $ARG1$ $ARG2$
}
 
 And the service definition: 
 
 define service{
use generic-service
(...)
check_command check_http_str_return_args!$_HOSTip_private_VIP_1$!-u / -t 
 10 -w 3 -c 5 -e HTTP/1.1 200 OK
}

This is unusual but based on the documentation on how to check service and host 
clusters, I expect this should probably work. Looking in the code it looks like 
macro substitution happens at the right place too... There is a problem with 
the resulting command in that '-e HTTP/1.1 200 OK' will be translated to '-e' 
with an argument of 'HTTP/1.1' and then a dangling 200 and a dangling OK to the 
entire command. If you want to match more than HTTP/1.1, enclose the entire 
'HTTP/1.1 200 OK' in quotes.

 My question is: 
 
 Is it by design that custom macros should NOT be used in service definitions? 

I don't recall seeing it stated either way (should/should not). I know that you 
can use other macros in this way and don't believe that custom macros are 
special.

 UNKNOWN  11-17-2009 13:10:15 0d 0h 1m 54s2/3 NRPE: Call to fork() 
 failed 

I'm not familiar with HP-UX but this is indicating that the NRPE daemon on the 
remote host is unable to create a new process to run the check. Do you have 
restrictions on that host to prevent that? limits on memory use, max number of 
process, etc?

Have you tried putting NRPE into debug mode? You might get more information but 
it sounds like the OS is preventing the creation of the child process.

[Nagios-users] Integrating Nagios Cacti

2009-11-17 Thread Kevin Holleran
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hello,

I installed and setup PNP4Nagios but am not really liking it.  I have
used Cacti in the past (on its own) and would like to integrate Nagios
and Cacti.  Is there a HOWTO page or anything that can help me
configure Cacti to integrate with Nagios?  I do not want to have to
manage two sets of devices or two data areas and it appears that Cacti
and Nagios can integrate.

Thanks for your help.

Kevin

[Nagios-users] plugin to track full page load performance

2009-11-17 Thread Terry
Hello,

I am looking to avoid reinventing a wheel here.  I am looking for a
plugin that will do a full page load (including images).  Check_http
doesn't do images from what I am seeing.  It should be easy enough to
do this with wget but does anyone have any other ideas?

Thanks!

Re: [Nagios-users] Custom Macros in Service Definitions?

2009-11-17 Thread Marcel
Greetings Marc,

Well, I've wrapped the command in question with /bin/echo { command_line
def. }  /tmp/check_http_jmx.log to see what Nagios is issuing.

The -I flag of the check_http command was being issued with just a dollar
sign ($) as it's parameter.

So i think it's a matter of macro double spanning, because there is a custom
macro ($_HOSTIP_PRIVATE_VIP_1$) being passed to be spanned by $ARG1$ at the
command_line definition. I do not know If I ever saw or used a configuration
like this.

I don't think is a problem of quoting, because Nagios should replace
$_HOSTIP_PRIVATE_VIP_1$ by it's custom host value say, 10.0.0.1, and then
pass this value to be replaced at $ARG1$ standard command macro, but all I
see is a dolar sign being issued by nagios as a parameter of -I.

Then my second question in my next email about double macro spanning.

Do you think it could be a configuration problem?

Best regards,
Marcel

  Now I want to refer to this $_HOSTip_provate_VIP_1$ macro in services

 What is the exact error that you are seeing? I can't see how a problem with
 that macro substitution would generate any error about 'not finding the
 service'.

  The documentation isn't clear whether or not custom macros could be used
 in service definitions.
 
  I've a command like this:
 
  define command{
 command_name   check_http_str_return_args
 command_line  $USER1$/check_http -I $ARG1$ $ARG2$
 }
 
  And the service definition:
 
  define service{
 use generic-service
 (...)
 check_command check_http_str_return_args!$_HOSTip_private_VIP_1$!-u /
 -t 10 -w 3 -c 5 -e HTTP/1.1 200 OK
 }

 This is unusual but based on the documentation on how to check service and
 host clusters, I expect this should probably work. Looking in the code it
 looks like macro substitution happens at the right place too... There is a
 problem with the resulting command in that '-e HTTP/1.1 200 OK' will be
 translated to '-e' with an argument of 'HTTP/1.1' and then a dangling 200
 and a dangling OK to the entire command. If you want to match more than
 HTTP/1.1, enclose the entire 'HTTP/1.1 200 OK' in quotes.

  My question is:
 
  Is it by design that custom macros should NOT be used in service
 definitions?

 I don't recall seeing it stated either way (should/should not). I know that
 you can use other macros in this way and don't believe that custom macros
 are special.

Capitalize the varname: $_HOSTSSHPORT$

Instead of the documentation saying that it is case insensitive, it only

[Nagios-users] auditing for external commands?

2009-11-17 Thread Frost, Mark {PBG}

We're looking at possibly allowing more individual users into the web interface 
and allowing them to schedule their own downtime.  One concern is that if a 
team doesn't get an alert they could come to my team (the team that administers 
Nagios) and say why didn't Nagios send us an alert when X was down? when the 
issue was actually caused because a member of their own team had disabled 
notifications.

I know we can see that an external command was executed in the log file and 
when, but there's no way of knowing (as far as I can see) who actually 
requested that that command be run.  In my opinion, it could be useful to know 
that 'bob' requested that notifications be disabled on host X particularly as 
it pertains to the web interface.

Is there a way to do this or would this need to be a feature request?

Thanks

Mark

 We're looking at possibly allowing more individual users into the web
 interface and allowing them to schedule their own downtime.  One concern is
 that if a team doesn't get an alert they could come to my team (the team
 that administers Nagios) and say why didn't Nagios send us an alert when X
 was down? when the issue was actually caused because a member of their own
 team had disabled notifications.

 I know we can see that an external command was executed in the log file and
 when, but there's no way of knowing (as far as I can see) who actually
 requested that that command be run.  In my opinion, it could be useful to
 know that 'bob' requested that notifications be disabled on host X
 particularly as it pertains to the web interface.

 Is there a way to do this or would this need to be a feature request?

 Thanks

[Nagios-users] check_nt MEMUSE

2009-11-17 Thread Richard Gliebe
Hi all,

check_nt -v MEMUSE shows me the complete memory (physical memory + 
page.sys) from the 64bit Windows Clients, which are using NSClient++ 
0.3.7.493 2009-10-12.

[...]
# /usr/local/libexec/nagios/check_nt -p 5666 -v MEMUSE \
-w 80 -c 90 -H 64bitClient

Memory usage: total:7939.16 Mb - used: 4101.70 Mb (52%) - free: 3837.46 
Mb (48%) | 'Memory usage'=4101.70Mb;6351.33;7145.25;0.00;7939.16
[...]

32bit Windows clients shows me _only_ the real memory (same NSClient 
Version).

Is it possible to configure check_nt to show me also only the real 
memory from the 64bit Windows clients?

We are using nagios-3.0.6_3 and check_nt v1991 (nagios-plugins 1.4.13) 
on a FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE Box.

thanks in advance
Richard
