 I am running a homemade check to check about 8 core processes. 
 Occasionally the check times out after 10 seconds.

 All this check does is run /etc/init.d/ status and use either the
 0 or 1 exit code to report that the process is OK or Critical.

 I verified in my nagios.cfg file the timeoout setting is set to 60
 secs and the utils.pm variable for timeout is set to 15 seconds.

 I have no timeout setting in this script but figured I need one. 
 Where is the check getting the 10 sec value from?  I assume its a
 default for a nagios check.

 If I rewrite the script in perl ( its a simple bash now) and use the
 utils.pm, does that automatically give me the -t option where I could
 set any timeout value or will it only set the timeout to 15 seconds as
 in the utils.pm?

 Is there a simple way to add a timeout for this check only ?

 Thanks,

 Steve

Re: [Nagios-users] check_memcached and hits/misses

2011-05-29 Thread quanta
In my opinion, you shouldn't check the sudden increase in misses.
You should check the get_misses value and alert when it is greater than
a threshold.

$ echo stats | nc -w 1 host port | awk '/get_misses/ { print $3 }'

 Hi,

 I'm searching for a nagios check that looks at hits and misses.

 Been using check_memcached for checking memcached status and right now
 I will continue to do that checking that memcached is answering and
 got free memory.

 However, the issue with check_memcached is that it's looking at the
 hits/misses ratio since start up of the memcached-process.
 Whereas I need to know if a sudden increase in misses instead between
 polls has occured.

 Is anyone familiar with a such check for Nagios?

 Best regards,

Re: [Nagios-users] CPU monitor for a single Linux user space process ?

2011-05-29 Thread quanta
You can wrote a plugin (shell script) for yourself, something like this:

# ps --no-headers -p `pidof process_name` -o pcpu

 Rookie question here. Trying to determine nagios suitability for an
 embedded app.

 Can I monitor the CPU utilization for a single user space process on a
 Linux box with nagios?
 And, can I define an action if it exceeds a threshold?

 Thanks
