[Nagios-users] notifications for downed services
Hello everyone,
I have just configured some service checks for services such as http, smtp,
etc.. The commands are defined in the commands.cfg file and then called in the
services.cfg file. The following is an example of how a commands.cfg and
services.cfg looks:
# 'check_http' command definition
define command{
command_namecheck_http
command_line$USER1$/check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$
}
Generic services template
define service{
name generic-service;
active_checks_enabled 1;
obsess_over_service 1;
check_freshness 0;
notifications_enabled 1;
event_handler_enabled 1;
flap_detection_enabled 1;
retain_status_information 1;
retain_nonstatus_information 1;
register 0;
}
define service{
use generic-service
namebasic-service
is_volatile 0
check_period24x7
max_check_attempts 15
normal_check_interval 5
retry_check_interval1
notification_interval 240
notification_period 24x7
register0
}
define service{
use basic-service
name smtp-service
check_command check_smtp
notification_options c,r
register 0
}
Example service called for a specific host (same services.cfg file as where the
above services are declared in the beginning)
define service{
use dns-service
host_name serv01
servicegroups mygroup
service_description DNS
contact_groups localadmin,supportpro
}
The contacts are setup correctly since our check_ping which is declared in the
hosts.cfg file works perfectly fine and we do get the correct alerts.
Could someone point me in the right direction of what I'm doing wrong here? I
can't seem to get emails if a service is down. It's most likely in my syntax,
but I'm not sure where since I get no errors when reloading Nagios.
Thanks for your help.

[Nagios-users] running multiple nagios instances?
Hello, We currently only have one instance of nagios running. We are looking to setup a 2nd node in a different location for redundancy purposes. We are thinking of installing Nagios on it and then using rsync and some crons to update the slave server from our currently running server so we only have to add new hosts to a single box. Has anyone done this before and how does it work? Also, it would be nice to set it up somehow so that only our main server sends out the notifications when it's online or we'll get twice the notifications for same failed services, which is a no-no. The secondary server could send out the alerts if the primary fails numerous checks from the secondary for uptime. Hopefully I didn't confuse anyone. If any of you guys/gals know of a plugin or a nice way of setting this up, please do speak up! - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems?

[Nagios-users] putting a Subject into the notification email
Hello,
What command do you use to give the notification email a subject. Right now, if
a box is down, it just sends an email with no subject at all. It would be nice
to put a subject in there that has the Host's IP for instance.
Currently, here's what we have:
# 'host-notify-by-email' command definition
define command{
command_name host-notify-by-email
command_line /usr/bin/printf %b \nNotification Type:
$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\nHost: $HOSTNAME$\nState: $HOSTSTATE$\nAddress:
$HOSTADDRESS$\nInfo: $HOSTOUTPUT$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n |
/usr/lib/sendmail Host $HOSTSTATE$ alert for $HOSTNAME$ $CONTACTEMAIL$
}
I take it the part after '| /usr/lib/senmail' is the subject of the email.
Anyone know why it does not process it? We currently usq qmail server.
Thank you for the help!

[Nagios-users] Monitoring bandwidth usage
Hello, I would like to get some input on what everyone thinks the best way to monitor and alert our techs is in regards to bandwidth usage. I know you can setup Cacti and Nagios to work together. For example, we can set a base mbit per day for a user and if they go over this limit, we will be notified via Nagios and can contact the user to let them know that they are on track to go over their allotted transfer.

[Nagios-users] Adding Contacts
Sorry for posting again but was not able to reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] via
email for some reason.
Here's the Contact issue continued. I'm sure that I'm just missing something
simple, just don't know what.
Thanks for the help Max, I did just that. Added them under contactgroups
and then also in contacts.cfg seperated by a comma for the contact. For
some reason, no emails are being sent still.
here's what I have in my contactgroups.cfg
define contactgroup{
contactgroup_name localadmin
alias Site Administrator
members nagios, monitor
}
here's my contact.cfg
define contact{
contact_name monitor
alias AYK monitoring
host_notification_period 24x7
service_notification_period 24x7
service_notification_options w,u,c,r,f
host_notification_options d,u,r,f
service_notification_commands notify-by-email
host_notification_commands host-notify-by-email
email [EMAIL PROTECTED]
}
Any ideas what may be wrong or why they are not being sent? I'll check
the mail logs, but the email account does work.

[Nagios-users] Adding contacts
Hello, Is it possible to declare multiple email contacts for a single contact? For instance: email [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] The reason I'm asking is because I added it, restarted and it didn't throw any errors. However, when I got the notification for something, it only got sent to the first contact, not the second. Thanks for your help - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Hello, I am having some issues with scheduling downtime via the web interface.

I am not sure why I am not authorized as I gave myself permissions to do this. Any advice here would be greatly appreciated. Secondly, I would like to substitute the question marks in the Status Map with some images of routers, computers, etc.. to make it more appealing.

I have enabled it in the nagios.cfg file and gave my 'nagios' user all the permissions in the cgi.cfg file, but I still get the following message: Sorry, but you are not authorized to commit the specified command.

Re: [Nagios-users] getting some flyby errors
My check_ping command is as follows:
define command{
command_name check_ping
command_line $USER1$/check_ping -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$
-p $ARG3$
}
The above is also the structure of my check-host-alive in checkcommands.c
fg
same goes for the check-host-alive command which is what I have
in the hosts.cfg file -- check_commmand check-host-alive.
For my actual check_ping command in services.cfg I have the following:
check_command check_ping!100.0,10%!500.0,40%!5
So, is passing that last argument '5' to $ARG3$ a problem? I did
that with my first host and did not have a problem.
Thanks again for the help

Re: [Nagios-users] getting some flyby errors
My directory structure is as follows: /etc/nagios/ contains the main files (cgi, nagios, resources) /etc/nagios/mysite contains all the other files (hosts, services, servicegroups, checkcommands, etc..) What files do you think I should grep for check ping? Also, I have disabled check_ping altogether and am now using only check-host-alive as check_ping throws some errors. So, I now have in hosts.cfg check_command check-host-alive and in services I also have check_command check-host-alive One of them has arguments to pass to macros, the hosts.cfg I believe. I will try to run grep on all the files as mentioned however.

Re: [Nagios-users] getting some flyby errors
That certainly makes sense. Thanks for the input everyone, but I believe I have resolved my problem. What I did was change check_ping to check_icmp, then setup the correct permissions (chmod 4711 and chown root.nagios on check_icmp), then changed the checkcommands.cfg, hosts.cfg and services.cfg files to reflect this. All of them are now showing up. Now I just need to see if the notificatio ns work with them.

Re: [Nagios-users] Please Help!! error on verify main config file
As John said, you have two definitions.

Re: [Nagios-users] getting some flyby errors
Hello and thank you for your reply. I figured out 99% of my problems. I completely overlooked minimal.cfg and that is where it was pulling everything from. I also had those already defined errors before and had to move my checkcommands.cfg file as well as a few other ones. Now I know why. I just had to comment out/move minimal.cfg to a different directory and now everything 's working like a charm.

[Nagios-users] Oreon feedback
Did a search on here for it but the posts were rather old. Just wanted to get some feedback on Oreon or anything else that's like it. I run v2.0 right now, so it should support that. Anyone using this front-end? I noticed most of the notes on it are in French and during the installati on process, it asks for non-existent directories (such as /usr/local/nagi os/etc), I assume that's from v1.

Re: [Nagios-users] getting some flyby errors
Hello, I am having another slight issue and would like some guidance on this. Here's the situation: I have one host that is being pinged and the SMTP is being checked just fine. It's in Group A. Now, I went ahead and defined 6 new hosts that need to be just pinged. I used the same templates in the hosts.cfg and services.cfg files that I am using for the Group A host which works fine. I have also renamed minimal.cfg to something else, so that is not a problem any longer. It pulls everything from checkcommands.cfg file where check_ping and check-host-alive are defined. I am also using macros, so, I have the following for check_ping in services: check_ping!100.0,10%!500.0,40%!5 Now, I reloaded Nagios just fine and thought that everything should work. Wrong, I am now getting the following error for all of my new 6 Hosts: check_ping: %s: Warning threshold must be integer or percentage! They all are UP and ping fine. What I can't figure out is how my first host works just fine but the new ones, which share the same templates and service group are throwing that annoying error. What am I overlooking here? Please let me know if you would like for me to paste anything to help with the explanation of my issue.

[Nagios-users] getting some flyby errors
Any suggestions on how I would go about doing this? I've been testing
this out for the better part of the day, but still get the following
error(s) on the flyby test:
Error: Service check command 'check_smtp' specified in service 'SMTP'
for host 'aykshared' not defined anywhere!
Checked 7 services.
In the hosts.cfg file, I have the following:
define host{
name Linux
register 0
check_command check-host-alive
max_check_attempts 10
check_period 24x7
notification_interval 240
notification_period 24x7
notification_options d,r,u,f
contact_groups localadmin
#notification_enabled 1
#event_handler_enabled 1
flap_detection_enabled 1
#failure_detection_enabled 1
#process_perf_data 1
retain_status_information 1
retain_nonstatus_information 1
}
define host{
use Linux
host_name aykshared
hostgroups linux_aykshared
alias AYK PING
address 1.1.1.1
}
#define host{
#name Linux-SMTP
#register 0
#check_command check_smtp
#max_check_attempts 10
#check_period 24x7
#notification_interval 240
#notification_period 24x7

#}
#define host{
#use Linux-SMTP
#host_name aykshared-smtp
#hostgroups linux_aykshared
#alias AYK SMTP
#address mail.server.com
#}
In the services.cfg file I have the following:
define service{
namebasic-service
is_volatile 0
check_period24x7
max_check_attempts 15
normal_check_interval 5
retry_check_interval1
notification_interval 240
notification_period 24x7
register0
}
define service{
use basic-service
name ping-service
check_command check_ping!100.0,10%!500.0,40%!5
notification_options u,c,r,f
register 0
}
define service{
use ping-service
hostgroup_name linux_aykshared
servicegroups shared
service_description PING
contact_groups localadmin
}
define service{
use basic-service
name smtp-service
check_command check_smtp
notification_options c,r
register 0
}
define service{
use smtp-service
hostgroup_name linux_aykshared
servicegroups shared
service_description SMTP
contact_groups localadmin
}
I commented out the second half for the time being as it didn't
work, but that is what I have. Also, please note that I do not
want to define 'aykshared-smtp' as a new user but would like to
have it all under 'aykshared'. This is mostly for us when we view
through the web interface, so all the checks are under'aykshared'
host.
I tried using just host {}, but of course that did not work. When
I uncomment the above part, I still get the same error, that it
was not defined.
Thanks for the help!
P.S. Before I get jumped at for not replying to a specific mailing
list, can someone please tell me how I can do that? Each reply
button seems to be replying directly to the poster and not the
whole thread.

Re: [Nagios-users] getting some flyby errors
Hello, Thank you for the reply. I do believe I have the plugin and it is defined in checkcommands.cfg. I thought it may be the directory structure at first, but it's not as my PING works just fine and they are located in the same directory/file. Any other ideas? Was my syntax correct as far as defining goes, etc..?
