The error message for that problem is very explicit.
The rest of the that message that you didn't paste into your message 
tells you what you need to do

It will say something along the lines of:

"You will need to change the permissions on the file or remove it. The 
actual error text is: Can't create /tmp/cwpss_checkcpu_.state"


Do what it says and you should be ok

Also I can't for the life of me get the checkts --s sessions(2003) 
working at all "WARNING: Could not correctly parse "customfield" 
definition in ini file:  (for checkts sessions2003)" is being displayed.




Something might not be quite right with the ini files you have. Try this -
1) Try downloading them again, try the command again
2) Remove the ini files one at time, running the command after each 
removal until the error goes away. Leave check_wmi_plus.ini to last as 
that is the one that contains the checkts checks. This should identify 
which one has the error.

3) Zip/tar them up and send them to me

This host is duel homed using both Ethernet and Infiniband networks. To
Nagios's point of view the parent of this host is the Ethernet switch that
it is plugged into, which didn't go down at all during this outage. Host
Unreachable is a valid ICMP code, so that's why the plugin reported this
error, not because of any Nagios parent/child relationship.

So in this situation Nagios should have increased the check attempts count
by one until the max check attempts threshold was reached, thus sending out
a service notification. Is this an error in Nagios or the check_ping
plugin. I'm using Nagios v3.2.3 and check_ping v1.4.15 by the way.

It looks like you use parent-child-relationships?
That would explain why it's written "Host Unreachable (172.21.10.170) "
instead of Host Down.
Was the parent of this host down as well? In this case, Nagios 'knows' that
it doesn't make sense to continue checks on the child hosts.

[Nagios-users] Check_Ping plugin not Incrementing Check Attempt Value

2012-01-30 Thread Robert V. Bolton 
Over the weekend I had a weird event happen in my monitoring set. I have a
host that has an Infiniband interface, and we are running the IP protocol
over Infiniband, while using the check_ping plugin to verify network
connectivity. This weekend our Ethernet to Infiniband gateway went down and
the check_ping plugin reported that state as CRITICAL, however the it
didn't increment the check attempt value, and thus a notification wasn't
sent out since the max check attempts threshold was never reached. I've
included some of the output of /var/log/messages that indicates the
problem. Has anyone else seen this issue? As a side note I've since changed
my service check to use check_icmp instead of check_ping.

Andreas,
The timings are hypothetical (although, as it stands now, some WARNINGS are
coming every 10 minutes...I want to convince my boss that it is too often).
Having too many notifications is often times worse than not having any at
all...If my boss REALLY wants the 10 minute emails, then I would like it to
be only for CRITICAL problems...
Thanks,
John

Will you look at your mail more often if you get one new mail every 10
minutes, or do you expect your admins to react faster if you present
them with buggerware?

I think I know one or two installations where they've really sat down
and thought about it and then figured out that more than one notification
to the same person per problem is what they need.

[Nagios-users] Different notification intervals for WARNING and CRITICAL

2012-01-30 Thread John Kennedy 
I have tried to Google and look at docs but think my brain is deserting
me...I am relatively new to Nagios, very new to GroundWork.

Is it possible to set up a plugin to send email at different intervals for
warning and critical alerts.
For example, a file system is 90% full, triggering a WARNING email. Since
there is still time, I would like this email every hour. Once the
filesystem is 95% full, triggering a CRITICAL email, I would like the
notification sent every 10 minutes.

We are using Nagios 3.0.6 on RHEL 5.7 with GroundWork Community Edition
5.3.0.

Thanks,
John

Re: [Nagios-users] NRPE/NSClient++ CheckCPU Error?

2012-01-30 Thread Claudio Kuenzler 
In the NSClient++ documentation, CheckCPU works with normal integers as
thresholds (so no %-sign required).

As an alternative, you can also check the CPU Utilization with the
NSClientListener/check_nt plugin:
http://nsclient.org/nscp/wiki/NSClientListener

I use this way of checking the cpu loads/percentages for several hundreds
of Windows servers and it works just fine.

$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c CheckCPU -a warn=$ARG1$

$ARG1$ is set to 80%  and $ARG2$ is set to 95% (have tried with and

The output display in Nagios is: CRITICAL: 5m: average load 15% > critical

Anyone have any ideas why this is generating a critical condition?

[Nagios-users] NRPE/NSClient++ CheckCPU Error?

2012-01-30 Thread Robert Jackson 
Why does the NSClient++ command CheckCPU always sit as a critical
condition within Nagios? The command I have in place is:



$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c CheckCPU -a warn=$ARG1$
crit=$ARG2$ time=5m



$ARG1$ is set to 80%  and $ARG2$ is set to 95% (have tried with and
without % symbol)



The output display in Nagios is: CRITICAL: 5m: average load 15% >
critical



Anyone have any ideas why this is generating a critical condition?



Regards,

Rab.
