Nagios is a mature and highly-configurable project. It supports inheritance, so pay close attention to the use directive for templates. You should be able to have nagios running and simple host checks (make sure a host responds) done in a couple hours. Then just build more, restart nagios, test, build more, restart nagios, test . . . ad infinitum.

Re: [Nagios-users] I don't understand the check_by_ssh plugin
I, for one, am against any use of check_by_ssh as it requires authorized keys, hence opening a security hole. All scripts can be executed thru snmp. Install it on your servers and use the exec directive to remotely execute the script. The output will return the last line and the exit code from the call, so the check_snmp plugin can work. NOTE: Unless snmp was already installed on your nagios server prior to installing nagios, you'll need to re-run the ./configure, make and make install commands for the plugins, so check_snmp will be compiled in. A simple line in your snmpd.conf file like the one below can be executed from the nagios server: snip exec checkrootpartition /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 1000 -c 500 -p / -u MB /snip Subsequent exec directives can be added as well. Of course, you'll need to copy the libexec directory over to the remote server (although it's not necessary, you can write your own scripts if you'd like) All parameters will need to be on the line in the snmpd.conf file. Then write a little script on the nagios server to check it. Here's the contents of that script. It DOES require the community name be the same on both servers. In snmpd.conf, edit this line: com2sec readonly default community and replace community with your made-up string script snippet #!/bin/bash usage() { echo USAGE: test_snmp server snmp # exit } if [ $1 == ] then usage fi if [ $2 == ] then usage fi /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp -t 7 -H $1 -C community-string -o enterprises.ucdavis.extTable.extEntry.extResult.$2,enterprises.ucdavis.extTable.extEntry.extOutput.$2 -w 0 -c 1 /script snippet Edit it so that it fits your environment, such as the path to check_snmp and the community string. Now, name it test_snmp and run the script: ./test_snmp servername 1 where 1 is the ordinal exec directive. exec directives in snmpd.conf are numbered as they appear in the file, so the first exec directive is accessed as 1, the second as 2 etc. On Fri, Dec 5, 2008 at 10:55 AM, David Dyer-Bennet [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm running Nagios 2.10 (the Centos 5.2 packaged version). I want to do some small local checks on each of a bunch of real and virtual servers, and I really don't want to have to set up Nagios (even a minimal install) on each of them just to check uptime, load average, and disk space. (Mostly I'm testing externally visible services on them.) The documentation on this plugin doesn't seem to tell me anything about what it does with the part of the command output it processes (I see that the -S and -E commands let me prune what command output it looks at). When I run it from the command line simply, I just get the output of the remote command (as if the plugin was just passing it through). I see that I could cause it to produce errors based on how long it takes, but nothing about how to actually use the output. Then I see some tantalizing hints about passive mode, where it writes a file that seems to show it doing some parsing and making decisions based on the data (in the example). But I can't get the example to produce a non-empty file from the command line. So I'm pretty sure I'm missing something about how to use this plugin in the first place, or what it's supposed to let me do, or some such. Or, if the answer to what I'm trying to do is some other approach entirely, I'd settle for enlightenment about that!

For example: snip from snmpd.conf\ exec check_users /usr/local/bin/check_users.sh exec check_procs /usr/local/bin/check_procs.sh /snip If those are the only two, then you access check_users.sh by replacing NUMBER with 1 or check_procs.sh by replacing it with 2, and so on . . . .

Re: [Nagios-users] Remote check.... using nsca?
Using nsca to monitor is a great way to inform nagios than an event has occurred, such as backups, logrotate, etc or a process has run that is kicked off at a random time, such as a DB trigger that happens when a queue gets to a certain length, etc. I use it for notiying me of the need to burn DVD's of archives when the archive directory gets to a certain size. This can be anywhere between 4 to 6 days apart, and it relieves me of having to watch. I get an email stating that the directory is at its target size. by nsca firing off an event. It also frees up nagios to do its active checks without the extra overhead of making checks that are going to come back 99.9% of the time with an ok status PS. Lots of questions in your post, let's get you to embrace and play with nsca first, then many of the other questions will answer themselves ;-] G.~ On 5/10/07, Sebastien Roy [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hey folks, I tryed to play a bit with nsca and I'm able to send some text message to test it and that's works fine, but I have a couple of question about that... 1- Why I would use nsca to monitor something? How I should use it (example)? Can I use some plugin with nsca? How can I monitor Windows workstation remotly, for disk, memory, cpu usage, etc...? 2- If I need to monitor a remote site with a couple of workstation/switches/router, what could be the best way to monitor it if I can't monitor it directly (remote site with dynamic external IP).

[Nagios-users] Browser showing old check results
I'm using SNMP to execute scripts remotely, and passing the results back to nagios. The scripts work great, as does the snmp portion, but when I watch the browser, it occasionally does a flip-flop on which result it displays. For example, if I see a check executed at 13:31 PM and wait for the auto-refresh, sometimes it show the results from 13:16 instead - Not good, especially if I need to keep up-to-date info on my screen. Anybody else experience something like this?
