 I'm running
Centos 5.5, and I installed the version of nagios available in the repo,

My guess is
that you have some left over stuff from the old package. I recently

Can you check that your web interface point to the proper

 If that is the case you need to use .* instead of * as true wildcard

Set the notification interval to a

 Obviously your have been testing eggs and are now trying to send

 trying.

 So talk to postfix instead of a remote SMTP server and try to mimick

 Don't use `reboot`. Use `shutdown -r` instead. And the system

 But rebooting a monitoring server is rather silly in my view.

 What happens if you use smbclient by hand to your localhost and a

 My guess is that they use different identification schemes so you 
 smbclient is not able to login to the windows domain.

 Add an interface check for the dialup interface but negate the result. 
 If the interface is down everything is OK. But if the interface is up 
 then you should set the status to CRITICAL or WARNING.

 You will need to add some effort of your own into this but this would 
 be roughly how I would add monitoring. Just considere the backup link as 
 a service of each router and set it to CRITICAL if the dialup interface 
 is up.

[Nagios-users] Multiple parents in map

[Hugo van der Kooij]

HI, 

I have digging into the archives but could not find a solution.
But in my view Nagios 3.2.3 is not showing nodes correctly in the map
view. 

I have 2 fire wall nodes (FW1 and FW2) for the customer that I
can check on a special TCP port. They are 2 cluster members on different
physical locations. 

Then I have 2 SMTP servers (SMTP1 and SMTP2)
behind them. They are also distributed over both locations. 

SMTP1 has
the parents FW1 and FW2 and SMTP2 has the parents FW2 and FW1. (The
listorder is important.) 

On the map both SMTP servers are behind FW2
and there are 2 blank spots behind FW1 in the Circular (Marked Up) map.


Will this be fixed in a future release? 

Hugo.

To quote mr Spock (pointy ears): Fascinating.

Given your timezone it looks like something with a unixdate drops to 0
shortly. That would account for the exact date/time stamp. (unix epoch -
5 hours) Just totally unclear why it pops up.

Just so we know. Is this with Nagios version 1.0? And I feel some people
might like to hear the config from you as well.

Well. Given that the nagios daemon is not the same thing as the CGI
binaries that make up your website this is to be expected.

Have you looked in the archives of this mailinglist? Because this is
almost the most reoccuring subject on the mailinglist.

So you should get a feeling of the various options available to you if
you start looking there.

As for me, I am very comfortable with vi. And I generate some config
files from other sources.

Technically this is not an Nagios issue. Just an issue of working with
multiple networks administrated by different organisations.

 1. Move to IPv6 and solve the adressing issue once and for all. In the
end you now you have to do that sooner or later.

 2. Do not accept private addresses. They are not unique so they will
not work with multiple networks administered by different admins.

With nagios you could install a local server for each customer where the
objects will have local addresses for the hosts. And let each local
instance report to a global server. But then you must make sure that the
hostnames will remain unique on a global level.

It is for challenges like this that I think the whole the need for IPv6
may finally sink in into the ICT community so we can get rid of all
those stupid NAT constructs.

(If you thought this was a tough one you aint seen nothing yet. )

This will not work as you expect. There must be plenty of samples in the
mailinglist archives to show you how it can done.

But to add one more to the archives:

define command{
command_namecheck_https_credentials
command_line$USER1$/check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -S -a $ARG1$
}

define service{
use waakhond.net-service
host_name   https_with_login-server
service_description HTTPS
check_command
check_https_credentials!user:password
contact_groups  customers
}

I always will advocate to add your own check_http like commands and use
them in your services.

Well. The Mk I eyeball combined with the heuristic algorithms installed

Have you considered:
 - to upgrade to the latest 3.0 version?
 - to include relevant information beyond the version number?
 - to ask a friend to help you with the English?

It seems your intention did not get through all to well. So by putting
in some additional information including telling us what bits of the
manual about notifications were not clear to you and what you have
allready configured will help getting to the message acros.

I have put a diagnose on the mailinglist for something that is either
the same problem or something similar.

The problem is that nagios can send several commands into the pipe at
once and the other end will only pick up one of them. So the RRD info is
not written. The work around is not to allow Nagios to run things in
parallel. But it will severly limit the amount of hosts and services one
can check with Nagios.

This should have been fixed by using the file interface instead of the
named pipe. The file interface was introduced about a year ago or even
longer back.

Please check the mailinglist archives for more details.

Setup dedicated links. With VPN's this should not cost you an arm and a leg.

I think using nagvis or looking glass or  seems the better way to

Nagios uses the $ as special character. So you should escape it in your
config file. If memory serves me well it should be $$ for every $ in
your definition.

That is usually the case when you do not have any real data in the

I think you may have misunderstood things. But sometimes there are
simple reasons for getting a response that is perceived as unfriendly.

A few common issues I have seen that will get a less favourable or even
a harsh response sometimes:
 - Clearly showing that someone has not read the manual.
 - Expecting a mailinglist to respond like they got some sort of SLA and
are entitled to an swift answer. (I doubt it anyone here gets payed for
reading the mailinglist, left alone writing up answers.)
 - Dropping a message with nothing to go on. Sometimes not even an error
message.

People posting questions can help by realizing that beyond what is put
in the message we do not know a single bit about your setup. So unless
they tell explain in sufficient detail it is just another inpossible puzzle.

I am not familiar with that. But with Centos it is like:
 - Install Centos
 - Add rpmforge as repository
 - Install nagios through yum
 - Configure Nagios

The last line is the hardest part as it requires one to read the Nagios
manual to understand the Nagios config files.

But I actually have one Centos 4 and one Centos 5 server operational.
And some custome checking to do a SMTP loopback check to see if a chain
of anti-spam and anti-malware servers is working as it should be.

When you tested by hand. How fast was the response? Could it be that the
plugin through nagios is perhaps faster or slower so the response time
of the automounter could be an issue?

You might be able to whip up something that works. But Nagios is about
monitoring. I think you need to look for another solution to do to
proper management of clients.

I can use a screwdriver to hit a nail. But a hammer is a better tool for it.

Life expectation? Fedora 9 will not be supported in 1 year from now. Do
you want to do a major upgrade each year?

That is why I never will run Fedora on a server. Only Centos on servers
for me.

Hold on. Given that a normal user is unable to login locally and change
config files. The actions available to the users are limited. And to the
best of my knowledge things like acknowledgements, scheduling downtime
and sure are pretty well recorded in the logs.

Or am I missing something here?

Scratch anything that does not make sense to you as far as operations or
 documentation goes.

Then see what is left. Pick and try the one that looks good to you and
see if it does what you want it to do. If it works you will propably
stick with it.

Which is why there is little in regard to comparing them available. No
one wants to waste time on that.

Once a service check fails the host check kicks in. This may result in
not doing any other checks at that time. If the hosts checks faile beyon
the limit set the host will reach a hard state of down and no further
servic notifications will be done.

This theory has been discussed rather intensively on this mailinglist
and for full details I advise you to browse the archives where propably
could have found the answer.

In my view this calls for a backup admin group. Today that group might

Did you read the update part about the changes between 2.x and 3x
configuration files?

Having done 2 upgrades on 2 differnet system with rather different
configurations I must say the upgrade was not as complicated as I

My first guess is that you hit the character limit for SMS messages. To
the best of my knowledge you can have only 160 bytes per message.

And most email to SMS gateways do not handle content over this single
message limit.

If this does not apply you might want to add more details to your
problem description.

Just curious. What is wrong with defining contacts to be individuals and
contact groups for the specific areas people are responsible for?

- From a logical point I find it a bit hard to see why you would need to
add individuals besides groups to devices.

Sometimes it pays of in the long run to be a bit stubborn about adding
not to many exceptions. Exceptions have a tendency to take on a life of
their own and triple your workload.

That would require you to rewite the notifications. and I guess you will
need to make them a bit more complex then they are at the moment.

If you only want this one services you will just add a new notification
to be used for the specific services.

So go about and pay a Nagios cunsultant. If it means that much to you
then you can afford to pay some serious money to someone to do your work
for you.

Or sit down, read the manual cover to cover before you write another
message to the mailinglist.

This is just waisting everyone's time.

By all means keep repeating yourself without adding more information

We will also very happily ignore such resends.

[Nagios-users] Nagios 3 now on rpmforge

[Hugo van der Kooij]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-

Hi,

The packagers at rpmforge have added nagios 3.0.4 to repository.

I just finished doing the upgrade myself on 1 server and it only took me
about 10 minutes to make the various changes.

Most of those changes were changes I was planning to do anyhow to make a
cleaner set of commands in my config.

It would require a major rewrite of Nagios. It seems you do not yet
fully see what Nagios is about. It is all about availabilit.

Either use cacti or any similar graphing tool if you want to graph
performance counters and such thinks. Or add the performace monitor
graphs with an addon tool like nagiosgraph to nagios.

You are free to do a major rewrite f Nagios but it wil propably take you
years to finish.

What does the config file look like for these services and the service
group? Did you reload the config into Nagios after the change? Any

I fear something is lost in the translation.

It sounds as if you need to recover data from a crashed Linux system.
But I do not think Nagios can help you there.

If you are just looking for a way to work with SNMP then please be more
specific. Like:
 - What do you want to do with SNMP?
 - What have you done so far? What have you read on the topic? (There is
quite a good deal of information on SNMP in the documentation and the
archives of this mailinglist.)

How much are you willing to pay if it is that urgent?

The volunteers of rpmforge are working on a Nagios 3 release and I
expect it rather soon now. But they are volunteers so they also have
paing jobs, wives, kids, ... to take into account.

Right. So you got what you asked for. A volatile service that updates

I think you missed all the warnings about this in the manual.

No. It only shows to me that you have not done the required thing. That
is that you need to sit down and read the manual of nagios.

So it would be very much appriciated if you take the time to sit down
with the manual and find the answers in there as most of the questions
you have send so far indicate that you have not even seen the manual.

If something is unclear in the manual then by all means ask for
clearification. But I think that asking questions that show a lack of
commitment to read the manual and understanding the way in which nagios
works is a cheap way of getting around you doing what you should do.

And it is my simple view that we should not encourage people to start
with nagios untill they have read the manual.

The answer is right in front of you. You need to define these commands.

In fact they should be listed in one of your sample configuration files.

Which sections of the manuals did you use to find an answer to this

At 0:00:00 you CPU is 95% busy, it drops to 9% at 0:00:03, then raises
to 93% at 0:00:54, drops to 7% at 0:01:08, ...

So what is you average if you only check at the whole minutes? And what
if you double the amount of samples?

So the best way is to do this the same way you would do this with
network interfaces. Take an interval and see how much time the CPU spend
in system, nice and user land.

It will take 5 (not so) random snapshots of the CPU usage at that moment.

If you want to monitor averages you could gather statistics wit RRD and
read the CPU counter to store those.

You can then also use RRD to check for the average over the last N minutes.

Sounds like a fun thing to make. But I get a lot of those
 in the queue and no immediate need for this particular fun project.

Sendmail as activated default by RHEL will listen on the loopback
address only and send out email to any address you please to send it.

The ony thing you might want to add is a smarthost to send it all to the
central SMTP server.

Nothing too complicated. The thing you do not know yourself can be found
in a matter of seconds with a decent search engine.

But configuring sendmail is not a Nagios job.

Why do you care to do this in a live environment?

I think you should considere these point:

 1. Duplicate your production environment (nagios server) into a test
environment and play all you want.

 2. Tell us what you suspect is not working and what you think this
simulation will tell you to solve it.

Please explain what you mean by audit. Because in my book audit has

Well you need to redo the math here. These numbers do not add up.

How do I fix ssh not to create auth.log entries? If you stop monitoring
ssh login attempts then your system willnever know if you got a breakin
throught ssh.

So this is not something you CAN fix on the client side. And something
that you should not WANT to fix on the server side.

Use whatever other check that does work for that host.

Did you inform the author? I noticed there are some more plugins that

I can't speak for the quality of the packages. But Debian has a tendency
to be rather conservative in their choises and not upgrade that often.

If you compiled from source with version 3 and reverted back to nagios 2
then you may have run into a heap of problems. If you manage to left
some of the manual compiled stuff in an combined it with software from
the packages you are in way over your head I fear.

It seems manual software is not a no-go area. Otherwise you would not
have started there.

I suggest you go back to the manual compiled stuff and remove the debian
packages in full. Or remove everything and start from scratch with just
the packages.

Your need to read the manual is clear.

You need to install the development environment this tool needs. So read
a bit about yum and rpm and install the developement package with the
knowledge you have aquired from this reading.

Regardless of which OS you run. If you own a computer with any OS on it
you need to aquire system administrative skills for that OS or hire
someone with such skills to do the job for you. The large amount of
spam/malware going around pretty much proves my point. The requirement
is however deliberatly hidden by some OS manufacturers.

The simple logic is: It seemed like a good value to someone at some time
for some systems.

If anything nagios MUST be adjusted to meet the needs of YOUR
environment. So if your system runs normally around 365 processes then
adjust your thresholds accordingly.

I guess by not reading the output these steps created. I am sure there
will be notices why something is not build.

The most common mistakes:
 - No development environment
 - No MySQL development environment

I suggest you check those and install them the normal way you install
software on your distribution where needed.

If that does not work AND doing a search on the archives of this
mailinglist did not provide in working clues then send relevant
error/warning information, details about your system,  to the
mailinglist.

Just to be sure. Did you read the manual cover to cover?

And how are we to guess what sort of error you get? What results did you

The obvious question to answer: What happens if you ping from the nagios
server by hand? If that results in duplicates as well then Nagios is
doing just fine and you have a network problem to solve.

Duplicate replies can come from 2 systems having the same address,
faulty clusters duplicating packets, using broadcasts addresses which
makes every system in the neighborhood react, faulty switches, ..

The whole point of this is that unused memory is wasted memory. So if
you do not use RAM for aplications itself your system will find a good
use for it to speed up the system by using it for buffers and cache.

Technically that means that you have a problem which is not caused by
Nagios. But what in the blaze is the /s option of mailx?

| $LASTHOSTUP$ This is a timestamp in time_t format (seconds since the

I recall that $LASTHOSTSTATECHANGE$ only worked to indicate the previous
working period on a down message but the up message showed a bogus
counter (being 0 or close to zero). So that variable is not that usefull.

I for one would not care about how long the UP period was but I do care
about the DOWN period. But I have not yet found a way to add it to the
report.

Why do you expect a SNMP proxy to reduce load? You will still fire off

There is no substitute for reading the manual. (cover to cover)

You can use whatever check you like to run as a check on the host. So if
you can not ping the default check is pointless. If SMTP is the only
service open then use check_smtp as host check.

Create your own wrapper for the plugins.

If you stick to the usage parameters of the plugins that need the
wrapper script you should be fine.

The issue at hand has been asked and answered on the mailinglist. You
might want to study the archives to see what sort of solutions people
have proposed and if they fit your setup.

There is nothing wrong with finding things out yourself and documenting

Define the status at the beginning of the interval. The option to do so

| You want check_cluster from the Nagios-Plugins distribution. This is a
plugin which checks the results of several host or service checks
directly from the Nagios status file to determine if a service is
available so, for example, you could have it checking all of your DNS
servers and only report that DNS is down if none of them are available.

That is exactly what I don't want. I was thinking of using one check as
a host and a service check at the same time.

Then you can use dependencies on that check on both service and hosts.

have you considered that this is just a beta version? Why not use a real

[Nagios-users] feature request: Service used as Host check

[Hugo van der Kooij]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

It seems some of us could just do with a config where we appoint a
service check as being a host check.

So if I define the service PING and use check_icmp on there I might as
well derive the host state from the service instead of duplicating this
check into the host definition.

Would it be possible to add the option sometime in the future to just
point to a service check on the host and let that result also count as
the host status?
