[Nagios-users] check_http with regex on redirects
We were using an old version of check_http, 1.4.10, to look for the regex '/html' on our sites using check_http. Recently we upgraded to a different server (from centos to ubuntu) and re-installed nagios using the package system. Now we are at version 1.4.15 of check_http and this no longer returns OK status for sites where the page is redrected or rewritten i get this instead: HTTP CRITICAL: HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently - pattern not found - 402 bytes in 0.222 second response time I'm not sure if it's a platform difference or something that changes in the plugin.

Hi I haven't researched this or anything, but is there is a -v option to
check_by_ssh to get the exact error thrown? - I'm simply wondering if you have
a bad/mismatched key in ~/.ssh/known_hosts or authorized_keys (sorry, ive been

Send to
nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.netmailto:nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net
Greetings, all. I've googled the subject above and evaluated the answers I've
found but haven't yet found info that pinpoints my issue.
I'm running Nagios Core 3.2.1 on RedHat 5.8. This installation has been running
for a few years, I just inherited it's care and maintenance recently. On one of
my monitored servers I write a script checkRAID.sh that calls another piece
of code, looks at the results, and returns either a 0 or a 2 (the result will
always be either good or critical, depending on whether the RAID controller is
unhappy).
Nagios runs as user nagios. The remote machine is configured to allow user
nagios to log in without a password, using a key pair. This works.
In /usr/local/nagios/etc/checkcommands.cfg I have :
define command{
command_namecheck_raid
command_line/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_by_ssh -H $HOSTNAME -l
nagios -i /home/nagios/.ssh/id_rsa -E -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -C
/home/nagios/checkRAID.sh
}
When I become nagios (su - nagios) and run that script, I get:
[nagios@nagios ~]$ /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_by_ssh -H remote server IP
-l nagios -i /home/nagios/.ssh/id_rsa -E -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -C
/home/nagios/checkRAID.sh
Check failed
[nagios@nagios ~]$ echo $?
2
[nagios@nagios ~]$
That Check failed line is what's written to stdout just before returning an
exit code of 2. This shows me that the remote script is working fine, and that
the local nagios user is able to execute it with no problems. However, once I
add an entry to services.cfg to tie this service check to my remote host and
give it time to run the command, when I look at nagios' Services page it
shows :
check_raid CRITICAL 06-10-2013 21:17:250d 6h 14m
29s3/3 (Return code of 127 is out of bounds - plugin may be missing)
This has me baffled. The return code is quite clearly 2.
I recently set debug_level to -1 and restarted. I'm hoping that the debug log

I'm trying to understand all the variables that are involved in controlling the time before the first notify-by-email alert is sent for a regular service and one that I've configured as critical. Is max_check_attempts the number of iterations it will perform the host/service check for each iteration of the check_interval period? In other words, if I set max_check_attempts to 5, and my interval_length is 60, does that mean it's 5 minutes before the first soft failure is generated? How does the notification_interval in the regular service definition compare with the notification_interval specified in one of the serviceescalation sections? In other words, if I set notification_interval to 10 minutes for regular services, and notification_interval to 5 minutes for escalated services, will I receive two notifications? I realize I could try this, but there seems to be so many other variables involved that I'd like to be sure my understanding is correct.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios Graph converting figures to binary bytes rather than decimal
Thanks to Claudio for finding the solution to this issue. To add to the instructions below I found that on my installation the line in nagiosgraph.conf to enable the rrdopts.conf file was commented out. You will need to uncomment this and make sure that it points to the correct place in order for the graphs to be correctly updated. James From: Claudio Kuenzler [mailto:c...@claudiokuenzler.com] Sent: 19 December 2012 14:19 To: Nagios Users List Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios Graph converting figures to binary bytes rather than decimal James and I continued the troubleshooting off-list and we came to the solution, which we want to share of course. Here's more or less my mail: --- You're absolutely right, the graphs were not correct. With both *1000**2 and *1024**2. Actually, thanks to your e-mail I figured that in the past years I've lived in denial. I must have come up with the multiplication of 1000 in the map file as a kind of workaround, because the graph was closer to the actual reality. Then I must have forgotten that and went on I broke it down to this: # df Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/md4 682587992 117456312 530731228 19% / # df -h Filesystem SizeUsed Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/md4 651G 113G 507G 19% / So df shows a value in KB (682587992). The Nagios plugin itself takes this value and presents it in MB (666589): /=114709MB;533271;599930;0;666589 So in order to present Nagiosgraph the values, we have to go down to the lowest level, which in this case is Byte. To get Byte value from the Nagios output we have to multiply it with 1024^2: 666589*1024*1024 = 698969227264 The job of Nagiosgraph is now to take this 698969227264 value and divide it so often through 1024 until a reasonable and human readable value is given, which would be the 651 GB. But here's the problem: Nagiosgraph divides 698969227264 through 1000 instead of 1024, showing the graph at 698 GB. But why? It took me some guesses which I had to confirm but: Nagiosgraph BY DEFAULT divides through 1000. Probably because the initial reason for rrd graphs was the graphing of network connections which are usually in bits. Anyhow we need to tell Nagiosgraph to divide through 1024 for our disk checks. There's a special file for that called rrdopts.conf. I added the following lines to it: # disk values need to be divided by 1024 not 1000 Diskspace /=-b 1024 Root Partition=-b 1024 The string left defines the service description in Nagios. So in my case this is Diskspace /. -b 1024 tells Nagiosgraph to take 1024 as a base value. See the following entry from the rrdgraph manpage: [-b|--base value] If you are graphing memory (and NOT network traffic) this switch should be set to 1024 so that one Kb is 1024 byte. For traffic measurement, 1 kb/s is 1000 b/s. Now you just have to make sure, that rrdopts.conf is not commented in your nagiosgraph.conf file and there you go. Positive thing is that there is no need to recreate the rrd files. This rrd option is only for viewing/drawing the graphs. Which means that the correct values are shown immediately.

Below is all the information around this check (I think). Please let me

[Nagios-users] Can't get service failure(warning) to send notification
I'm trying to add an http check to one of my hosts. It appears as though
it is doing the check and correctly finding a problem, yet I am not
getting any email notification. Below are the nagios config files:
/etc/nagios/hosts.cfg and services.cfg.
define host{
host_name login2.mycompany.com
use generic-host
alias login2.mycompany.com
address login2.mycompany.com
_HOST_ID 2923

check_period 24x7
contact_groups Notify_james
notification_interval 10
first_notification_delay 1
notification_period 24x7
notification_options d
notifications_enabled 1
}
define service{
host_name login2.mycompany.com
service_description check_http
_SERVICE_ID 1879
use CheckHTTP
check_command check_http
max_check_attempts 5
normal_check_interval 5

notification_interval 5
first_notification_delay 1
notification_period 24x7
notification_options w,u,c,r
notifications_enabled 1
contact_groups Notify_james
contacts james
}
The contact_groups and contacts are definitely right as I get host down
notifications from other hosts.
My service template for CheckHTTP looks like:
define service{
name CheckHTTP
service_description CheckHTTP
use generic-service
is_volatile 0
check_command check_http
max_check_attempts 3
normal_check_interval 5

notification_period 24x7
notification_interval 5
notification_options w,u,c,r
notifications_enabled 1
first_notification_delay 1
contact_groups Supervisors
register 0
}
Is there a way to make the check failure for CheckHTTP be a critical
rather than a warning?
Right now the warning shows:
login2.mycompany.com check_http Warning login2.mycompany.com 22h 10m 51s

Re: [Nagios-users] Issues with check_by_ssh
Looking at your command from your terminal example and then looking at your
command_line from your Nagios definition and your check_command statement the
fields all seems to be backwards
The things that I can see are
- Your Nagios configuration is using the root account to connect to
the server and your command line definition is using Nagios
- Your command_line is being passwd 'ipxenserver' as the remote
command to execute
- You command_line is being passwd your remote command as the ssh key
to use.
- You have a trailing ! in your check_command definition which we
create a variable with no value
I think your command definition and need to be updated, something like this
define command{
command_namecheck_xen_cpu
command_line$USER1$/check_by_ssh -l $ARG1$ H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C
$ARG2$ -I $ARG3$
}
define service {

Re: [Nagios-users] Issues with check_by_ssh
I see that you are talking to a XenServer host. I am performing something
similar. What I have had to do to achieve results is to create a local Nagios
user on the XenServer host which has SSH keys to allow the server Nagios user
to connect and avoid using any root SSH keys which the Nagios user is unlikely
to be able to read.
Once you have connected to the XenServer host check that the Nagios user can
execute the commands you are running. If you are simply looking at the dom0 as
if it was a host and checking items such as cpu, memory or disk usage then you
should not have a problem. If you are executing XenServer xe commands then you
will need to pass a username and password that has access to the XenServer to
run these commands. This will be root or another account that has been granted
access. You can store these values in the resources.cfg file and pass them in
your command definition.
I have also noticed that your service definition is passing 4 arguments, where
your command definition is only using 3 arguments and the hostaddress. It
would be worth checking to make sure that you are passing the correct arguments
from your service and command definitions to your remote host.

Subject: [Nagios-users] My Own Command Deinifition Weird Behavior.
Hi there guys.
I defined my own command to use an internal sms sistems, so we can send an sms
alert along with the e-mail ones.
This is what the script do.
#!/bin/bash
HOST=$1
STATE=$2
lynx http://server:/SMSService/$HOST-State-$STATE
The command definition is:
# send-sms
define command{
command_name send-sms
command_line /path/sms.sh $HOSTNAME$ $SERVICESTATE$
}
The problem is that with some host I receive the SERVICESTATE condition, Ok or
Critical, but with others dont, only get $
As I can see on the debug file:
Processed notification command: /path/sms.sh server333 CRITICAL - This is good
Processed notification command: /path/sms.sh server333 OK - This is good
But for the other servers I get:
Processed notification command: /path/sms.sh server222 $SERVICESTATE$ - Only
get the variable name instead its content, ok or critical.
Any idea what the problem could be?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards

What user is your Nagios server running as? Is it the same as the user that
you are using on the command line? Could you post more details about the exact
check_memory command that you are using, there are several of them out there.
The output you are getting from Nagios, is this on the web gui, or in one of
the log files.
It could be many things related to the check scripts itself, who you are
running as where you are running the command. The command line is not always
the same as when the server executes.

Posting your check configuration is really helpful in cases like this. It's
almost impossible to give a good answer without knowing how you've set the
check up.

Hi all
I am using a simple plug-in to check the nagios server memory.
When I run it like user Nagios, it works perfectly. I see this output:
OK - free memory is 40% which is within expected threshold| mem=40;10;5;0;100
When I run it with Nagios program I receive this notification:

Re: [Nagios-users] Problem in Installing the graph plugin.
Did you run the install and check your prerequisites, I found that some of these are not present by default, You can run sudo ./install -check=prereq If everything is ok, you can proceed, otherwise you will need to install the missing packages At install time you may need to pass the argument for a standalone installation, this all depends on your environment sudo ./install -standalone Once installation has completed you can test that the server is working by going to one of the following websites http://server/nagiosgraph/cgi-bin/showconfig.cgihttp://%3cserver%3e/nagiosgraph/cgi-bin/showconfig.cgi or http://server/nagiosgraph/cgi-bin/show.cgihttp://%3cserver%3e/nagiosgraph/cgi-bin/show.cgi This assumes your cgi data is located in cgi-bin and that you are running apache. This should help to get nagiosgraph working, you will then need to update Nagios to use the graphing plugin.

[Nagios-users] Help with OCP_daemon and distributed monitoring
I've got a large distributed Nagios installation that uses the OCP_daemon to handle the forwarding of passive service checks to the master server. I've recently upgraded from version 3.0.3 to 3.4.1. After the upgrade, I've found a serious problem that I haven't completely solved yet. When using the OCP_daemon, you configure Nagios to forward passive check results by having it write performance data to a named pipe. While on version 3.0.3, all passive check results where being where being written to the perf data named pipe regardless of whether there was performance data or not. Since the upgrade to 3.4.1, check data only gets written to the pipe if the plugin generates perf data. I need all check results, regardless of state to be written to the pipe and forwarded on to the master. Has anyone else encountered this issue and what was the solution. Here's the relevant config: # Enable Performance data processing. process_performance_data=1 # Files to which Nagios will write data. In this setup # they will be named pipes. #host_perfdata_file=/path/to/host-perfdata.fifo service_perfdata_file=/var/log/nagios/rw/service-perfdata.fifo # This is exactly what will be sent to send_NSCA. Do not change it. host_perfdata_file_template=$HOSTNAME$\t$HOSTSTATEID$\t$HOSTOUTPUT$|$HOSTPERFDATA$ service_perfdata_file_template=$HOSTNAME$\t$SERVICEDESC$\t$SERVICESTATEID$\t$SERVICEOUTPUT$|Data: $SERVICEPERFDATA$ # The write mode should be w, although append should have no effect on a named pipe. host_perfdata_file_mode=p service_perfdata_file_mode=p # We don't want to process any command, so set this to 0 host_perfdata_file_processing_interval=0 service_perfdata_file_processing_interval=0 Thanks, --james -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

Re: [Nagios-users] How many hosts and services are you monitoring with Nagios?
We're monitoring around 1000 hosts and 4700 services. We are using the last version of Opsview Community like Simon although his setup sounds a bit more fault tolerant. We have 1 master server with about 30 slave servers monitoring various remote sites. Easy of distributed setup was what won us over to Opsview several years ago but as they moved the distributed version to the enterprise commercial edition I am starting to pay attention again to the different variants of Nagios out there. Also centralized web based configuration front end was another huge plus as engineers don't have to understand Nagios to setup hosts. The racoon setup sounds like some good stuff.

Impressive :) We're monitoring ~2000 hosts and ~1 services, every 5 minutes. Architecture used: OPSView Community edition, the last free version before it started to make the distributed version commercial :/ Two central servers (active/standby - drbd) as single point for management and collecting all passive checks executed by the slave servers. Performance data saved into rrd files as well on an external BIG database server. Configuration resides on a cluster MySQL installation (drbd). 4 slave datacenter installations with 2 servers per datacenter in active/active load balancing. Traps handling supported on all servers with rules logic. Pros: - Open Source: at least until version 3 - for our setup. Simple single instance with fewer functions available as well on version 4. - Easy to manage: the prupose was to create monitoring system and then let the management to other people with less technical skills - distributed setup - RBAC Disadvantages: - no longer Open Source: see above - Central server suffering on cpu by GUI implementation and other bg jobs - Not all nagios parameters editable as we like: i.e. cannot customize same checks with different intervals without having to re-create new ones. Think on HTTP service on servers with different loads and the need to extend the retries on high load servers. no way expect creating HTTP and HTTP High Load services. Maybe there are more pros (and disadvantages), but it's not the right place. BTW I'll look forward to wait for this solution; seems interesting!

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios + memory usage + SNMP
If you are monitoring Linux, I would suggest this one, from the same page I
directed you –
define command{
command_name check_linux_snmp_proc
command_line $USER1$/check_snmp_process -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C $USER15$ -2
-n $ARG1$ -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$
}
(Run the command interactively for all the necessary arguments, or see the web
page - it’s pretty straightforward).

[Nagios-users] Nagios based distributed monitoring systems out there?
This is not entirely Nagios related, more nagios backend architecture related. We had been a long time user of Opsview Community Edition. We were monitoring multiple sites so we were drawn in by Opsview's ease of distributed server setup. Unfortunately Opsview is dropping distributed monitoring from the community edition (a point brought up by Opsview sales when they contacted us about buying enterprise). I now am stuck with a system monitoring 1000 hosts across different locations with a no low cost upgrade path under Opsview. What my company ultimately decides to do is not entirely up to me but I was curious if other nagios based monitoring systems handled a reverse tunnel master/slave distributed model as well as Opsview used to? If Opsview is listening, next time you drop core features from your product do your registered users a favor and give them advanced notice, instead of using it as a sales talking point. Thanks.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios based distributed monitoring systems out there?
what you mean by reverse tunnel master/slave distributed model, So you have master server - that presents the master web interface - controls configs for everything -sends out notifications Slave servers are placed at remote locations to do active polling and results are returned to the master. Slave servers initiate ssh session to master and open up reverse tunnel back to itself. So data from slaves comes in via port 22, config data is pushed out to slaves over reverse ssh port. The cool thing is we don't have to deal with opening up ssh on a bunch of remote networks. As long as SSH is allowed out from remote networks and we allow in SSH from the remote networks everything just works. Other distributed setups I had seen had to have direct ssh access out from master to slave. Opsview Community edition was really a great value, but the move to enterprise edition would be a big cost increase, so I figured it was worth asking about distributed setup in other nagios based products.

sure why you are calling bash then the script name as an arg, that is odd to

Re: [Nagios-users] how to associate /bin/bash with shell script in Nagios
Ok, so it's working fine when you run it from the command line, but not for
nagios user, correct? (If it's a shell script, nagios will execute it using the
proper interpreter, so there is no way to tell nagios to use bash if that
makes sense)?
I usually su - nagios user, then try and run it from that user account - that's
usually where the problem is, it runs fine for root or whoever, but fails for
the nagios user for whatever reason...

Sorry, I also remembered you can add an -x to the end of the #!/bin/bash

Re: [Nagios-users] how to associate /bin/bash with shell script in Nagios
Yes I agree with Ed as well on the remote stuff -
And yes, the *nix OS determines what shell/program (eg perl/bash/sh/zsh etc) to
execute the script with by the shebang line in the top of the file, and whether
or not it's executable.
I would definitely try and execute it as the nagios user - that is all that is

If this is run on a remote host using nrpe this what I would check:
- type which bash on the remote host and make sure the path matches what's in
your script.
- verify your nrpe.cfg has an entry in it for your script I.e check_myscript
- verify on the master that check commands matches the remote entry

Actually I verified that this script runs fine manually using default (Bourne)

So now I have #!/bin/sh in the beginning of my script and it still is not
being picked up by service.
And I restart Nagios to initiate the service attempt.
Do you refer to Bourne shell (#!/bin/sh ) in this part of your explanation:
“ (If it's a shell script, nagios will execute it using the proper interpreter,
so there is no way to tell nagios to use bash if that makes sense)?”
If you do, and since I still can’t initiate the script should I su - nagios

And responding to Edwin’s question, it is on local host.

Re: [Nagios-users] how to associate /bin/bash with shell script in Nagios
ok it's really very simple - find the exact command definition string you want to execute in your commands.cfg, and su - nagios (as root) and then interactively (like actually type it right?) the same exact command that the command definition is attempting to execute as the nagios user, and see if it works - Note, this is only to debug, or test your configuration - you do not want to setup your script to su - nagios or anything like that ... sorry if i was not clear on that - what you want to do is mimic exactly the command nagios is attempting to execute, that is all, it's just for testing. if you can figure out why that is not working as the nagios user (This is the account the nagios program runs as right?), then that is where your problem is, so i'm sorry - it's not a solution, it's only the best way to find your problem, as that is the apparent issue - as you say - it runs correctly otherwise.

[Nagios-users] check_http frequent timeouts
I am monitoring an external web server at one of our sites from a Nagios instance at another site. During the day I will see frequent timeouts retrieving the webpage. I have increased the timeout to 20 seconds and the problem still occurs. What is interesting is that I have other web serves at the same site being monitored in the same way that are not exhibiting the same issue. I am trying to pin down whether this is a related to the Nagios check or if the server itself is as fault, or perhaps the path in between. The only difference with those servers that are working and the one that is giving time outs is the web server that is be running. The one with the time outs is running lighttp and the others are running apache. Has anyone seen any similar situation and could lend any suggestions as to a possible fix.

Re: [Nagios-users] monitor printer from Windows server
Hi Robert,
This sounds like the kind of thing that I am interested in. I have not done
any powershell scripting before so would be very interested in seeing what you
have if you are able to release it; as well as your integration with NSClient
and Nagios.
Thanks

I've had good luck using System.Printing from Powershell and then running the

I just wrote the PowerShell Scripts to use the standard nagios plugin status
codes.
I used the following links to develop the PowerShell scripts:

If there is interest, I'll ask my boss about sharing the PowerShell scripts.

Besides of course the Spooler Service, you should also monitor the Windows
Event Log.
I've experienced a lot of driver issues on an old Windows print server which
temporarily caused the affected printer(s) to appear as 'offline'. Such
problems appeared in the event log as Warnings with the message content
something about the driver. That was on a Windows Server 2003, but I think such
driver problems are still logged to the Event Log.

I query the windows performance counter for number of print jobs
spooling. If a printer breaks then usually this counter starts
ramping up quite rapidly as more and more print jobs get stuck in the
queue.
For example, the [external alias] section of your nsc.ini (assuming
you use NSClient++), you can have:-
alias_CheckCounter-PrintQJobs=CheckCounter Counter:jobs=\Print
Queue(_Total)\Jobs ShowAll MaxWarn=250 MaxCrit=500
Then your service definition would look something like this:-
define service {
host_name printserver1,printserver2
service_description PrintQJobs
use srv-pnp,generic-service
check_command check_nrpe!-c PrintQJobs
max_check_attempts 6
check_interval 15
retry_interval 5
contact_groups notify-admins
notes Records the number of Active
Jobs on a Print Server
register1
}
And the command definition I use is just a generic one for any nrpe
check like so:-
define command {^M
command_namecheck_nrpe
command_line$USER1$/check_nrpe -H
$HOSTADDRESS$ -u $ARG1$
register1
}
Our servers aren't quite as recent as Windows 7, but I guess the
counter would still be the same.
I hope that helps.
Jim

[Nagios-users] network outages permissions
I have just installed a new Nagios server and wanting to make sure that everything is working. All appears to be ok except I cannot access the Network Outages page, I get the error It appears as though you do not have permission to view information you requested... If you believe this is an error, check the HTTP server authentication requirements for accessing this CGI and check the authorization options in your CGI configuration file. As far as I can tell everything is configured correctly and I get no errors in my apache error log. If I updated the values below authorized_for_configuration_information=nagiosadmin authorized_for_all_services=nagiosadmin authorized_for_all_hosts=nagiosadmin I get access as I would expect. Is there somewhere else that dictates authorisation that I need to update. I also have similar problems with the Event Log, Process Info and Scheduling Info pages.

Hi. Sorry it's not working for you - from below, i am deducing you have it

Can you post your host definition, and maybe the command template for
template_TEST/TEST_CMD, as I'm not sure why it's not recurring after check 1.
Btw, i was under the assumption you only wanted it to actually run a check once
per week, perhaps I am missing what you are really trying to accomplish, sorry.

Re: [Nagios-users] Change_Email_From
There is no global method (that I know of) to simply set a from/reply-to address in the Nagios config. By default, email is sent from Nagios using the /bin/mail program which will set the from/reply-to address as user calling the mail program@machine.name. In most cases, Nagios is running under the user 'nagios'. In your commands definitions, you can certainly alter your notifications to move away from the Nagios default configuration which pipes notification output to the following example: /bin/mail -s Host $HOSTSTATE$ alert for $HOSTNAME$! $CONTACTEMAIL$ In order to set a from/reply-to address, you will need to use a mailer that will allow you to set a from/reply-to address. With /bin/mail, I don't think that's possible. Therefore, you'll need to use a program like /usr/sbin/sendmail. But sendmail uses a completely different syntax than mail, so you can't just substitute /usr/sbin/sendmail for /bin/mail in your Nagios config. In a nutshell, to use sendmail you need to pipe in output containing the To, From, Subject, etc, then the message, all on separate lines. In order to do this using printf, you would need to separate each line with \n new line arguments. As for the question about setting up a different from addresses depending on host/service, you would simply create multiple notification commands, or you could possibly use macros. Perhaps I'm way off base here and there is an easier way to accomplish what you guys want... There are most likely several ways to skin this cat, like using a mailer other than sendmail. -- James Moseley On Tue, Jan 18, 2011 at 3:49 AM, Mister IT Guru misteritg...@gmx.comwrote: On 18/01/2011 09:33, Rajesh Kumar wrote: Hi All I used Nagios Core in my CentOS Server.

On Mon, Jan 10, 2011 at 9:54 AM, Mister IT Guru misteritg...@gmx.comwrote: I'm pretty sure that the SNMP on my printers is working. Is it included with this printer, because I specifically configured it, and looked out for SNMP support before ordering these printers, to use with Nagios. I know that my device returns data, because it does for snmp queries from the CLI. I would like to know, how I can get check_hpjd to be more verbose, or to log if that is possible? Thank You Let me explain in a different way. If you are querying your printer manually with snmpwalk/snmpget and you are not getting the response you expect, then the Nagios plugin you are trying to use will not work. In other words, this isn't a Nagios problem. You stated earlier in this thread that your printer supports SNMP as evidence that you were able to walk the standard MIB tree. That's great, but that doesn't mean that your hardware and current software supports the SNMP MIB that the plugin is trying to use. That's why I suggested making sure you have the latest firmware/SNMP support from HP installed on the printer. The plugin states that it works with HP printers that have JetDirect cards installed. Does yours? Another step in your troubleshooting would be to look at the source code of the check_hpjd plugin to see what MIB OID's it is using. I believe that's what a previous person on this thread did as they suggested a MIB-specific OID for you to check. If your printer doesn't support that OID, then the check_hpjd plugin will not work and you will have to either a) get the printer to support the MIB the plugin is using b) modify the plugin and recompile it c) write your own plugin using the the SNMP MIB OID's your printer supports. -- James Moseley -- Gaining the trust of online customers is vital for the success of any company that requires sensitive data to be transmitted over the Web.

Your check command definition (which you didn't attach) should look
something like:
define command{
command_namecheck_http
command_line$USER1$/check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p $ARG1$
}
Then the check_command argument in your service definition, if you were
checking port 80, would look like:
check_commandcheck_http!80
If you want to check other ports, then you'll have to create a different
service for each port you want to check.

Re: [Nagios-users] Missing notifications?
I was directed in the irc forum to look at http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/statetypes.html and I learned that services or hosts need to have a hard state failure, in order for notifications to go out. I've been trying to reboot my servers in order to get my notifications to go out. I'd like to check that I'll actually get notifications as soon as there is a problem, for example, a host goes offline, I'd like to know after about 2 minutes if possible! Then just turn a server off and wait a bit... ;-) You could also create a fake host, one with an unpingable IP address. As for how much time it takes to notify once the host/service becomes unresponsive, these three definitions (outside of any separate escalation policies) will dictate how fast the first alert will go out: max_check_attempts normal_check_interval retry_check_interval In your case, you'd probably want to set max_check to '2' and normal and retry to '1'. In this case, assuming interval_length=60, the host (or service) would be checked every minute. When the host becomes unreachable/down, the host would then be rechecked once, one minute after it first becomes unreachable/down. If it was still down, the state would then become 'hard' and an alert sent. Total time before alert was sent could be anywhere from 61 seconds to two minutes, depending on when the host is first checked after it goes down. You really need to read the object definitions in the Nagios documentation. -- James Moseley -- Learn how Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) One Node allows customers to consolidate database storage, standardize their database environment, and, should the need arise, upgrade to a full multi-node Oracle RAC database without downtime or disruption http://p.sf.net/sfu/oracle-sfdevnl___ 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

I am looking for a method to track largest memory usage amongst IIS worker processes on Windows 2008 server. I have some ideas on how to script the check but my solution would have privileged account dump process information to a text file and the plugin would just be a perl script to parse the text files.

I realize the common opinion is that it is a bad idea due to I/O but I am looking for something a bit more in depth. Thanks Not really, however it's been discussed on the list now and again - I think for the most part, most agree it is just a bad idea, however, I suppose you could run it on a separate vm instance, depending on your shop/site. Here, I will always run it on external hardware, as we run 99% virtual/ESX so putting in the cluster im monitoring would just be a counter-productive. :-P Cheers, James -- This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios - Retention period for logrotate
Hi Marc,
Thanks for your response. What can you suggest for this kind of scenario as
my boss requirement is to have the nagios logs remain within 6 months only?
At this moment, I just set log_rotation_method=n in nagios.cfg and I made
simple logrotation script as stated below.
/var/logrotation.d/nagios:
/var/log/nagios/*log {
daily
rotate 180
compress
dateext
missingok
notifempty
olddir /var/log/nagios/archives
sharedscripts
postrotate
/sbin/service nagios reload /dev/null 2/dev/null || true
endscript
}
Would appreciate your help about this.
Thanks.
Regards,
James

There isn't a configuration option for this. Nagios will keep the log files
indefinitely for reporting (you can go back 2+ years through the web
interface).
You can cron a simple find -exec rm to do that but be aware that you won't
have any reporting capability beyond what you keep.
Also, because you specifically mention it, using logrotate will break
reporting in nagios. The file naming convention must be exact for nagios to
find the files.

[Nagios-users] Nagios - To capture apache process list before restarting
Hi All, How do you guy's setup your nagios client for remote apache server to get its httpd process list before doing soft/hard restarting apache service if it is detected unreachable from nagios server?

Do you used any special plugins or personal script that could insert to restart-httpd file? Thank you.

Also, check the output of hostname command - if it's not correct, you can set it via hostname -v nagios.mydomain.com I think if you restart nagios after this change/fix, you will see what you expect... if not, check your httpd setup/ conf files for correct ServerName directive , etc etc...
