[Jatin Davey]

Hi

I want to know how i can monitor the java process running on remote box 
, basically i want to keep monitoring it and raise an email alert if it 
has re-started or stopped functioning. Please let me know how this can 
be achieved using nagios.

Thanks

Someone hereabouts recently mentioned you can use jmx4perl
http://labs.consol.de/lang/de/jmx4perl/

I can't say I've tried it myself yet.

You can monitor process on remote box using nrpe + check_procs

1. you have to install nrpe on remote box
2. and then have to configure command in nrpe.cfg eg check_procs

for more infor

./check_procs -h

[Nagios-users] on call rotation with check

[shadih rahman]

Is it possible to maintain a on call rotation via a service check?   Also
possibly pass in a nagios username to update the on call rotation?  Please
advise on this.   Thanks

Re: [Nagios-users] Re-send: Notificaitons after the commit

[Yu Watanabe]

Hello Assaf

Sorry, for ambiguous expression.

Word "Commit", I used in the meaning of executing the following command,

/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
/etc/init.d/nagios restart

And yes. After the above command, the notification that was been occuring every 
24hours before then
suddenly stopped. So, I doubted the restart procedure if this is doing 
something wrond.

Thank you
Yu Watanabe

Re: [Nagios-users] Monitor Java Process

[Max]

You could use check_proc via NRPE or al custom SNMP base check SNMP
agent (HR MIB or an agent specific MIB).   A number of SnMP agents can
be configured to send SnMP trpas when monitored processes exit.

The Sun JVM also has a built in SNMP agent that exposes thread count,
heap size and some other base JVM metrics.  This agent can easily be
proxied through an agent like Net-SNMP so you don't have multiple
agent ports to work with.

If you are using weblogic, it's built in SNMP agent can be configured
to send a variety of SNMP traps, including starting up and shutting
down traps.

Re: [Nagios-users] Re-send: Notificaitons after the commit

[Robert Wolfe]

I am curious here...

If all you are doing is restarting Nagios, why not just use:

/etc/init.d/nagios restart

Instead of all the other commands and parameters?

Running nagios -v nagios.cfg haves Nagios verify the configuration, this is
best practice because otherwise you risk a typo stopping your monitoring for
the time it takes for you to correct the configuration :-)

Tip: don't use restart when you just want Nagios to load new
configuration.Your init script should handle reload instead, which will send
a HUP signal to Nagios. This means that Nagios doesn't stop and start back
up, it only re-reads the configuration files.

So, for your specific problem, I think you'd be fine by simply using this
instead:

/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
/etc/init.d/nagios reload

Check your retention settings in nagios.cfg, especially
retention_update_interval and retain_state_information.

[Nagios-users] Help with nagiosgraph?

[Litwin, Matthew]

I thought I might try posting this here in case someone has lots of experience 
with nagiosgraph.

I am setting up nagiosgraph-1.4.1 on a nagos 3.0.6 installation on CentOS 5.2 
and I have this peculiar problem where only some of the hosts and services are 
having their rrd data populating. It seems totally random as to which hosts are 
being selected, like one or two hosts from most of my hostgroups. Also, which 
services that are being collected is also spotty. What is even weirder is that 
the service data that is being collected is getting updated and goes back to 
when I set everything up, but other hosts don't even have it's host directory 
under the rrd data root.

I have nagiosgraph running in debug mode and I don't see anything particularly 
offensive, but it does seem to hit an empty perfdata.log that I would expect. I 
feel data is simply getting missed in the churn or something. Any ideas?

Here is a chuck of nagiosgraph.log:

Re: [Nagios-users] multiple check_interval with single service check

[Matt Simmons]

You could write a wrapper around the plugin to check the time of day
and execute it as needed.

For exactly this reason, I have had two command aliases for years:

preflight (which does a -v against the configuration file to check the
   sanity of my Nagios configuration)

reload (which sends the Nagios process a SIGHUP)

Re: [Nagios-users] Re-send: Notificaitons after the commit

[Wolfe, Robert]

This is funny because I have script called 'sanity_check' that runs Nagios with 
the -v switch to check my configs :)

For exactly this reason, I have had two command aliases for years:

preflight (which does a -v against the configuration file to check the
   sanity of my Nagios configuration)

reload (which sends the Nagios process a SIGHUP)

I *always* do a preflight before the reload, just to be sure my
configuration is sane, no matter how minor a change I made.  It's
a good habit to be in.

Re: [Nagios-users] Re-send: Notificaitons after the commit

[Wolfe, Robert]

I know that.  However, I always run the command with the -v immediately after 
making changes.  After I have verified the changes work, then I restart Nagios. 
 But, I guess the old adage "There is more than one way to skin a cat" can 
apply here, yes? :)

I am curious here...

If all you are doing is restarting Nagios, why not just use:

   /etc/init.d/nagios restart

Instead of all the other commands and parameters?

Running nagios -v nagios.cfg haves Nagios verify the configuration, this is 
best practice because otherwise you risk a typo stopping your monitoring for 
the time it takes for you to correct the configuration :-)

Hello Assaf

Sorry, for ambiguous expression.

Word "Commit", I used in the meaning of executing the following command,

/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
/etc/init.d/nagios restart

Tip: don't use restart when you just want Nagios to load new configuration.Your 
init script should handle reload instead, which will send a HUP signal to 
Nagios. This means that Nagios doesn't stop and start back up, it only re-reads 
the configuration files.

So, for your specific problem, I think you'd be fine by simply using this 
instead:

/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
/etc/init.d/nagios reload


And yes. After the above command, the notification that was been occuring every 
24hours before then
suddenly stopped. So, I doubted the restart procedure if this is doing 
something wrond.

Check your retention settings in nagios.cfg, especially 
retention_update_interval and retain_state_information.

The init script already does this and doesn't restart if verification fails.

[Nagios-users] cgi_base_url - change in latest build?

[Andres L. Figari]

Hello,

Recently my monitor server crashed and I decided to go with a the latest 
version of Nagios rather than backups.   I did not really notice the automatic 
update feature - though I may have opted for it anyhow.  Suddenly my cgis are 
not working:

The requested URL /nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi was not found on this server.

I had my cgi.cnf set up like this... 

url_html_path=/

Anyone know what it was that changed that I cannot configure this anymore via 
the cgi.cnf?

I read the update notes and could not tell any mention of the cgi_base_url nor 
url_html_path

Thanks for any help!

Regards,

Andres

It's a compile-time option --

$ ./configure --help
`configure' configures this package to adapt to many kinds of systems.

Usage: ./configure [OPTION]... [VAR=VALUE]...

{snip}

--with-cgiurl= sets URL for cgi programs (do not use a trailing 
slash)
--with-htmurl= sets URL for public html


I expect you previously used  '--with-htmurl= --with-cgiurl=/cgi-bin' for your 
old install.

Thanks - no I did not set anything in my configure out of the ordinary, I 
did the whole install with defaults and then edited the cgi.cnf and it 
worked.

I just changed my httpd.conf file and it fixed itself anyhow - thanks again!

[Nagios-users] Getting Notifications Outside of Defined Time Periods

[Matt Baer]

I'm having an issue with Nagios sending me notifications during time periods 
that are not included within the designated period. I've tested this by setting 
the time period to 'never', restarting Nagios and I STILL get notifications. 

I have a backup that runs on my Mail Server 3-4 times a week. In order to do 
the backup process, I have to down my mail server. So you can imagine that I'm 
getting dozens of emails at very early times in the morning. Any ideas?

Re: [Nagios-users] Getting Notifications Outside of Defined Time Periods

It sounds like the check_time_period of your checks is not being set to what
you think it is.

I suggest that you use config.cgi (View Config in the sidebar menu) to check
what Nagios is actually using as the running configuration. Go to Services,
check the Check Period value. Then go to Time Periods and verify what the
definition of that Check Period alias is ("never" is not a magic word, it is
just an alias so it could conceivably be something else than never).

Re: [Nagios-users] Getting Notifications Outside of Defined Time Periods

[Matt Baer]

SImply genious . That appears to be the issue, but I haven't a clue how to fix 
it, as it appears to be a formatting error. 

Here's what the cfg file shows: 

# Mail Server Downtime 
define timeperiod{ 
timeperiod_name MailServ 
alias Monitored 24x7 Except During A Backup 
sunday 00:00-02:45,03:30-24:00 
monday 00:00-02:45,03:30-24:00 
tuesday 00:00-02:45,03:30-24:00 
wednesday 00:00-02:45,03:30-24:00 
thursday 00:00-02:45,03:30-24:00 
friday 00:00-02:45,03:30-24:00 
saturday 00:00-02:45,03:30-24:00 
} 


And here's what's given with the method you described: 

MailServMonitored 24x7 Except During A Backup   
sunday  03:30:00 - 24:00:00, 00:00:00 - 02:45:00 

monday  03:30:00 - 24:00:00, 00:00:00 - 02:45:00 

tuesday 03:30:00 - 24:00:00, 00:00:00 - 02:45:00 

wednesday   03:30:00 - 24:00:00, 00:00:00 - 02:45:00 

thursday03:30:00 - 24:00:00, 00:00:00 - 02:45:00 

friday  03:30:00 - 24:00:00, 00:00:00 - 02:45:00 

saturday03:30:00 - 24:00:00, 00:00:00 - 02:45:00 
Is the formatting an issue? 

define host{ 
use generic-host 
host_name Mail 
alias Mail_Server 
address 10.0.0.10 
check_command check-host-alive 
max_check_attempts 10

You can monitor process on remote box using nrpe + check_procs

1. you have to install nrpe on remote box
2. and then have to configure command in nrpe.cfg eg check_procs

for more infor

./check_procs -h
