[Nagios-users] host with multiple addresses and check_nrpe
Hi all, i've succesfully created a host with multiple addresses like this: define host{ use server-sistemes host_name Cluster-correu alias Sun Cluster Correu address host1,host2,host3 } and check_host_alive returns ok if host1 answers. This works as expected in http://www.nagios.org/faqs/viewfaq.php?faq_id=146 Now, check_nrpe doesn't take host1 as the $HOSTADDRESS$ but host1,host2,host3. ** FRom faq_id=146 ** Nagios simply passes this address to plugins and external commands via the $HOSTADDRESS$ macro. You'll have to make sure that you host check command (and possibly service checks, etc.) can understand the format of your host's address in order to check it though. Does not check_nrpe handle correctly the list of addresses? What we want to achieve is executing some checks through nrpe in either of hosts 1,2 or 3 (whatever that is alive) but not on the three because the result will be the same. How could i handle this? greetings and thanks in advance, dani - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100url=/ ___ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null

They expect a single host address. ooh, ok. How could i handle this? Write a wrapper plugin that accepts multiple host addresses, determines the 'aliveness' of host 1, 2 and 3, runs check_nrpe against the one you're interested in and returns the results, including exit code to nagios?

How do I get more debugging info from nrpe? I am running it with ___-d___ but only see startup and shutdown. I'm guessing because syslogd isn't configured to write info or debug anywhere I don't have root on this particular box so I have to go through someone else now I guess to get this syslog.conf change.. (right?) it seems you started nrpe like this: nrpe -c nrpe.cfg -d , didn't you? then this -d options mean daemon. To enable debug edit nrpe.cfg, search for debug=0 and turn it into 1. Restart nrpe. It doesn't have to do anything with syslog. Otherwise, I misunderstood you, and I'm sorry. I hope this helps. Dani.

[Nagios-users] solaris 10 zones check_procs
Hi everybody, we are having problems using check_procs in solaris 10 boxes (virtual zones), works very well in the global zone. We are using pst3 and check_procs from nagios-plugins-1.4.12. i have found a thread from early 2007: http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5112366messageID=9879024 and says: Also keep in mind to not run the plugins in a Solaris Zone. The reason being is that the check_procs plugin requires access to /dev/kmem which is not allowed in a non global Solaris zone. Is there a way to make work check_procs from inside the virtual zones? thanks in advance, dani - Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!

Re: [Nagios-users] Sidebar disappearing in Firefox
Not that I know of, no. If a browser setting were causing it, surely I should see it all the time, and I don't - it's only an occasional visitor, and I've only seen it in Firefox, not Safari (though I do look at Nagios more with FF than Safari). I'm quite prepared to believe it's a browser issue, but I'm wondering if anybody else has seen it. it seems to me that the side bar is rolled up... did you press Av Pag o Re Pag keybord keys?? at least i happens to me all the time. dani - Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

[Nagios-users] notes_url $USERX$
Hi all, we are planning to migrate our nagios installation from one machine to another one and we noticed that we had a lot of things hardcoded in the configuration. We would like to reference our wiki url in the notes_url so we can eventally migrate from one server to the other: notes_url $USER11$/$HOSTNAME$ but this doesn't seem to work: nagios.myhost.tld/nagios and no the expected nagios.myhost.tld/wiki/nagios. I suspect this could be due to restrictions in macros but not sure about that. we are working with nagios 2.10. Does anyone know how we could do this? thanks in advance.
