Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios disfunctional , perhaps due to time change ?
Same here! I spent some time last night figuring out what happended. I ended up downgrading to 3.0.6. I also had to remove the retention.dat. The queue looked really strange.

[Nagios-users] Unwanted false OK states
Hi! I have a problem with printers that sometimes reports OK-states when they shouldn't. It is the toner-checks on some HP-printers that reports warning when they should. We acknowledge the problem and it disappears from unhandled problems like it should. But then at some times the printers all of a sudden reports that the toner is 100% and the service goes green. By the next check it is back to Warning (or whatever) again and we have to acknowledge it again. We keep unhandled problems clean and displayed on the wall. The staff are getting bored at acking the same problem over and over again. I understand that it is the printers that have problem, but fixing them is probably not an option. Does anyone have a solution or some idea I can work from? Maybe it's simple, maybe someone else have seen the same thing, we see it on 12 printers here. Maybe my brain is just slow today ;-) My only idea just now is to write a wrapper-plugin that checks twice with a small delay. The problem is that I don't know for how long the printers reports OK (all I can see in the log is that it is less than 5 minutes...) and I cannot reproduce the state for testing. /Marcus -- Marcus Rejås jabber: mar...@jabber.rejas.se ,= ,-_-. =.

We have a script (php) at one of hour servers that updates a file when it is run (it really updates different files depending on arguments). This script is "touched" every 5 minutes by Nagios and check_http. The file on the server is checked by a cron-job at that server that makes sure that we gets alerted if it gets too old. This way, we are not "only" monitoring that Nagios is running and writing log files, we are also monitoring that it does its checks as intended.

You are absolutely right (as always, however this time I took the time to test and prove myself wrong...). I am, and was, aware of the checks you are referring to and they really do make sense in most places e.g. leaving and entering timeperiods. But in this context they are confusing. If I set up a contact with: host_notifications_enabled 1 service_notifications_enabled 1 service_notification_period 24x7 host_notification_period24x7 host_notification_options r service_notification_optionsr It will never ever get any notifications. To be honest I cannot see any practical use of this contact but until I tested now I would say that this contact should get only recovery notifications. This is not something I would see fixed but it might be good to point this out on host- and service_notification_options in the manual. > Sending a patch to make sure each problem object in the Nagios core contains a > concatenated list of "normal" and escalated contacts would be favourite, since > that would mean everyone who received the problem notification will also get > the recovery notification.

I don't (at least not yet) have a good answer. But maybe I can put some ideas in your head. My first thought is that if they want the recovery notification maybe they would not mind the extra one either. The extra one actually tells them that the issue was escalated and might be useful information. If they don't want the issue to escalate, they should acknowledge it (sticky). In order do fix it to work like you asks I have two suggestions. None of them is good. If you do not have that many contacts, create an additional one for each member in the on-call with only recovery-alerts and put them in a group, e.g. on-call-recovery and escalate to that one. They will now get the recovery notification. An other alternative is to modify your notification-command to take notice of the macros $SERVICENOTIFICATIONNUMBER$ and maybe $HOSTNOTIFICATIONNUMBER$ and build the logic you wish. Make sure to do it right so you don't miss important notifications. But, as I said, I don't like any of the ideas. There are very smart people on this list and someone will probably give you some more advice. Regards, /Marcus -- Marcus Rejås jabber: mar...@jabber.rejas.se ,= ,-_-. =.

That is true. For it to make sense you should make up a check that is likely to determine if the switch goes down to use as host check and maybe also as the only service on the switch. How this can be done depends on your setup. The first thing that comes to my mind is to write a check that pings some reliable serves connected directly to the switch and if none of them responds the switch is probably dead. This can be used both as host check and a service. Be wise when choosing hosts to ping. If the switch is a distribution switch with not many servers on it there might be printers to ping. /Marcus -- Marcus Rejås jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ,= ,-_-. =.

Is there any solution to overcome this ? I could think of different possibilities. 1.) Try to get a static ip, and bind it to you NIC. You can bind serveral IPs to one NIC, if you really need an ever-changing IP. 2.) Run nagios on another/virtual machine with fixed ip. (A server, maybe.) 3.) Use check_by_ssh instead of nrpe 4.)

I doubt that I actually had two instances running, but who knows. Maybe there is an issue with my restart-script (from init.d)... I just killed nagios thoroughly (blood everywhere), and now, the test-mail I just initiated after restarting shows me the changes. I even almost got the desired result (a link to host or service) by building the linkification manually, by combining the servername and $HOSTNAME$-variable. But, for services that contain spaces, it doesn't work. By the way, the $HOSTNOTESURL$ definitely doesn't produce any output on my system, same goes for the $SERVICENOTESURL$. Is it supposed to produce a valid html-link or something like that? I didn't quite understand that part of the current documentation.

[Nagios-users] notify-{host, service}-by-email command resistant to changes
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
Hi Folks,
I just tried to get the Macro $HOSTNOTESURL$ below my notification-email
for an enhanced usability experience.
However, the changes I made to the command-definition are not taken into
account, when nagios makes my mta send me a mail.
Example:
I just changed "State" to german "Status" just to see if it works, then
restarted nagios and klicked on "Send custom host notification" for one
of the servers.
However, I still see "State" instead of "Status", and I don't see a
URL-representation anywhere.
I grepped for Date/Time, to see if there are maybe overlapping commands
defined, but there aren't.
I use the generic-contact template:
service_notification_commands notify-service-by-email
host_notification_commands notify-host-by-email
and the custom mail-commands, slightly enhanced for URL-sending:
The command-definitions are:
# 'notify-host-by-email' command definition
define command{
command_namenotify-host-by-email
command_line/usr/bin/printf "%b" "* Nagios
*\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\nHost:
$HOSTNAME$\nStatus: $HOSTSTATE$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nInfo:
$HOSTOUTPUT$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n\nURL: $HOSTNOTESURL$\n" |
/usr/bin/mail -s "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ Host Alert: $HOSTNAME$ is
$HOSTSTATE$ **" $CONTACTEMAIL$
}
# 'notify-service-by-email' command definition
define command{
command_namenotify-service-by-email
command_line/usr/bin/printf "%b" "* Nagios
*\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService:
$SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTALIAS$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nStatus:
$SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n\nAdditional
Info:\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$\n\n $HOSTNOTESURL$\n $SERVICENOTESURL$" |
/usr/bin/mail -s "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ Service Alert:
$HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ **" $CONTACTEMAIL$
}
The mail then looks like this:
* Nagios *
Notification Type: RECOVERY
Host: OpenVPN1
State: UP
Address: ovpn1.somedomain.de
Info: WARNING - ovpn1.somedomain.de: rta 0.839ms, lost 0%
Date/Time: Thu Sept 4 09:44:01 CEST 2008
No URL anywhere, ...
Please be so kind to guide me to the solution of this occurence.
Thanks in advance,

How about writing a plugin, which downloads a file of a given size and measures the time it took, then let the plugin calculate the bandwidth. You could use wget and an external high-speed server for that. You could also, of course, simply go for "check_bandwidth" (https://trac.id.ethz.ch/projects/nagios_plugins/wiki/check_bandwidth) which uses iperf (http://www.dast.nlanr.net/Projects/Iperf/) on a remote host. ;-) This doesn't seem to be the same check_bandwidth as on the nagiosexchange-page, though.

Every manufacturer who builds a device can define his own OIDs and put them in a so called MIB for that device. There is also a standard-MIB (called MIB2), which defines common stuff. Take a look here: http://www.et.put.poznan.pl/snmp/mib2/mib2.html What you need to do, in order to determine, what information you can get from your SNMP-capable device (your SAN), is to use some sort of MIB-browser (either graphical or console-based), feed it with the MIB of the device you want to monitor, and browse the OID-tree. The MIB translates those weird rows of dots and numbers into something human-readable. (OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2 could be an interface description, for example.)

Would I need an equallogic specific plugin > for Nagios? Thanks for any help. You have to check what exactly you want to monitor in your SAN, then find the according "OID" (Object ID) for that value. Then, make sure your nagios-server is "snmp-ready", by installing perl-Net-SNMP, and compile check_snmp. (Maybe you also need net-snmp and net-snmp-dev, I'm not quite sure.) Set a password (community-string) on your SAN for snmp-read. It might already be set to "public" (I personally don't like default passwords.) You might need a customized MIB for that device which you should probably get from the manufacterer or which is somewhere on the "Driver CD" for your SAN. (Read some documentation on MIBs: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Management_information_base) The MIB should tell you, what can be monitored. If you have Hostname, OID and a valid password, as well as a working plugin (check_snmp), just stick to the documentation on http://nagiosplugins.org/man/check_snmp or have a look here (http://www.superk.org/index.php/Nagios_&_Windows#Monitoring_with_SNMP) for another example. You won't need an equallogic-specific plugin, thats the nice thing about snmp. You'll just have to define some custom commands and services for your equallogic stuff.

http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/escalations.html and
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/notifications.html should clarify
the difference.
A notification is, well, something notifying the responsible admin.
An escalation is, when he/she doesn't react, the mail also goes to
fellow admins, or even the management. That would be escalation, I guess.
How to test that, well...
Set up a service, which doesn't work. Have a notification sent to you.
Dont react, by not acknowledging it.
After a couple of tries of nagios notifying you, nagios should notify
another admin-group if you set things up correctly. See the manual for
examples.

If I get the problem right, you are getting notified, but don't find the
notification option. Maybe it takes the standard-admin-mailadress...?

Maybe you can have a template for services with notifications, and one
without (as below).
I think, the notifications_enabled (0/1) directive could do the job.
-
define service{
namegeneric-bp-service

Personally I think this is a bad idea. It will add complexity but very little is gained. For them who not like to work with the configuration files there are many third party tools for configuring Nagios. In these tools the option you mention is easy and maybe wise to add. Like I said, I think it is unwise to add this feature just to save some "copy-and-paste". Just my 2 cents. Regards, /Marcus -- Marcus Rejås jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ,= ,-_-. =.

[Nagios-users] Changes in authorization between 3.0 and 3.0.2 statuswml.cgi?
Hi Ethan, hi list, i'm having problems in acknowledging problems via WAP with Nagios 3.0.2. The Page tells me i'm not authorized to submit the command. When i submit the acknowledgement with the web frontend, all is working fine. Also, when i reinstall the statuswml.cgi from Nagios 3.0, its working again, too. So i guess, there must habe been something changed between these releases? Can anyone reproduce this behaviour? Regards, Marcus - Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

Sure, just use $ARG1$ $ARG2$ etc, in your command definition. (See the
fabulous manual on this issue, to clarify if needed.)
# 'check_tcp' command definition
define command{
command_namecheck_tcp
command_line$USER1$/check_tcp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p $ARG1$
}
in your service definition you can then use
service 1
check_command check_tcp!123
service 2
check_command check_tcp!456
The "!" is for seperating command-name and parameter.
I hope I understood right, what you are trying to do (having a
parametrized command-definition, and give the port as a parameter).

Hi folks, I figured it out, via the debug switch.

[Nagios-users] NRPE: Unable to read output
Hi Folks, i'm trying to get a plugin for openvpn (http://www.nagiosexchange.org/cgi-bin/pages/Detailed/1315.html) to work with nrpe, but it gives me the dreaded "NRPE: Unable to read output"-error. The server is a sles10sp1-xen-host running openvpn with the management-console which is reachable via telnet on localhost:1195.

Well, sure such an error is not nice, but since it reconnects in the same second and flushes the sink successfully, maybe it's not that "critical" after all.

When I had "my first nagios-day", I ran into the exactly same issue.
I monitor two linux-servers which looks like this:
define host{
use linux-server
host_name OpenVPN1
alias OpenVPN-Server Nr1
address ovpn1.somedomain.de
}
define host{
use linux-server
host_name OpenVPN2
alias OpenVPN-Server Nr2
address ovpn2.somedomain.de
}
(The template that comes with nagios is beeing used).
Hope this helps a little.

Hi Pallav, if you just want to monitor, if the management-interface of the switch is up or down, you can use check_icmp or something like that. MIB-2 is a standart-MIB which suits for many different devices. If you wanna monitor the fan, or the cpu-load or something like that, you need the corresponding OID from MIB-2 (or from some special Cisco-Mibs).

Hi Jeff,
I have a command-definition in
etc/objects/commands.cfg
# 'check_snmp' command definition
define command{
command_namecheck_snmp
command_line$USER1$/check_snmp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ $ARG1$
}
Here you could probably specifiy additional ARGs, for example the Port
used (after $ARG1$).
If you invoke check_snmp with -h (in libexec), it gives you the possible
arg-list, including -p for port.
(-p, --port=INTEGER Port number (default: 161))
But wouldn't it be simpler, to just tell the FW to allow Nagios-IP on
Box[1-4] for UDP 161 ?
What you take as "obvious" isn't that obvious for me, but maybe I just
don't get your environment right. ;-)

Hi Kevin, I recognized, that migrating from 2.10 to 3.0 ended in 4000 unwanted mails over the weekend ... ;-) (Due to a strange notification configuration.) Well, I inherited the old system, and recognized, that it made more sense for me, to start with monitoring some basic systems in 3.0 and getting used to the new system first (since I am quite new to nagios) and then integrating some of the old config-files (host-cfgs). This scenario worked pretty well for me. I don't know how much the config-format has changed since 1.x, maybe you don't have to write everything anew. (My luck was, that we almost exclusivly monitor the up-down-state of 1100 switches and routers, no fancy checks involved.) In the process of upgrading, I used the preflight-check a lot, and when the check-script didn't complain, I restartet or reloaded nagios. How many hosts or services are you monitoring? Do you just use standard plugins? I wish you the best of luck however. Greetz, Marcus - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Re: [Nagios-users] controlling services by hostgroup?
Hi there, Nice to see some other people had the same idea to simplify their config. :-) Additionally i can say, that i order hosts in multiple hostgroups to stick them together logically. For example: HostA and Host B are both members of server-hp, os-linux, net-drbd, net-bond0, task-oracle. Both belong to the same Project along with some other hosts (routers, switches, sensors...), so all of those machines belong to a hostgroup "ProjectA", combining them to a logical unit. As far as i can see, it doesn't bring up any performance issues in Nagios 3.0(b7) to add a host to multiple hostgroups. Back in the old days, service groups rendered my nagios installation (2.3) to a nearly unusable state by growing service latencies to incredible numbers. Now, i'm working with ~600 hosts and ~5400 services with a latency of 1.6 secs, having large numbers of hosts in multiple hostgroups.

This is the exact correct behaviour, until you added a sudo-command for
/sbin/hpasmcli on your nagios-server! To get this clear: Whenever you
start a command via nrpe, the command defined will be executed on your
_remote_ server. Nagios calls check_nrpe, check_nrpe connects to remote
site and lets the nrpe daemon execute the defined check (check_hpasm).
When you remove check_nrpe from the check_command definition, check
_hpasm is executed _locally_!

No, its bound to the way you configure your nagios. You have to choose
what you want to configure: local check or remote check via nrpe. Make
your choice and concentrate on the solution of just that single problem.
Ok, another try for the nrpe part:
Before checking the real nrpe part, make sure this works:
1. Connect to miysis via ssh.
2. look into /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg or whereever your nrpe-config is and
get the username nrpe runs under.
3. su -
4. sudo /sbin/hpasmcli -help
If this asks you about a password, your sudo-config lacks an entry.
Else, process as follows:
5. Look at the command definition in your nrpe.cfg.
6. Call check_hpasm exactly as it will be called by nrpe.
Only if all that works, and only if all that works, try to check if it
also does from your nagios server by calling check_nrpe.
I would suggest you read over the documentation for nagios and nrpe
again to get the way it works clear.
Oh, and by the way: Gerhard is from southern germany, its impossible for
them to be impatient by any means! ;-)

Michel, i think you misunderstood Gerhard. It's important to try to analyze the problem step by step, so please do exactly what is described. You tried to execute the command via NRPE, instead, you should have executed it manually on the console.

Could you have a look to your "/opt/compaq"-directory and check its permissions? Unter normal conditions, nagios user will not be allowed to go there, permissions are set to 750 on my machine. So, without being able to read it, the nagios users cannot execute /opt/compaq/utils/hpasmcli. I was not willing to change the permissions on all my machines, so i circumvented it by calling the check_hpasm-script directly via sudo: nrpe.cfg: command[check-hpasm]=sudo /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_hpasm -b $ARG1$ sudoers: nagios ALL=NOPASSWD:[...],/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_hpasm Maybe this helps? :-) Regards, Marcus Fleige - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Re: [Nagios-users] rrd gaps
Hi there, here's my 2 cents about the gaps: From my experience, gaps are normally caused by missing datasets over a period of time. RRD expects data within a time window defined in the "step" and "heartbeat" variables. If data doesn't arrive in this window, the value for the defined time frame is set to "NaN" (Not a number), resulting in not being displayed in the generated image. Missing datasets are often caused by: - Huge service latencies, e.g. if you got lots of services to be checked in a rather short period of time. (Got this with 3k services, which should be checked in a period of 2 minutes -> 25 Checks/second is quite a lot...) - non-fitting service check intervals. If you check your services in a 15 minute interval, but your rrd files expect data every 5 minutes, only every third time frame will be filled, resulting in gaps. Maybe this is of some use.

Re: [Nagios-users] Configuring Disk Space
It is quite simple I guess. It's a typo in your config file.
You have "check_disk!20%!10%!/dev/sda2" when what you want is
"check_disk!20%!10%!/dev/hda2"
Observe sda instead of hda.

I store my nagios config files in an svn repository with a dedicated nagios main config file for each slave, telling it which config dirs to include. After updating configs on the master server, the repository is commited. Afterwards, i run a small shell script which connects to the nagios slave servers, updates the local replica of the repository and reloads the nagios daemon. The only thing that has to be done once for every slave is the manual change of the rc-startscript to tell the daemon which config to use (master uses nagios.cfg including all config dirs, slave1 uses nagios-slaveserver1.cfg incl. dir1-dirX etc.) Hope this is worth mentioning it. ;-) Regards, Marcus Fleige -- EOF - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

[Nagios-users] Multiple email alerts
Hi, I¹m using a $8.00/month Xen account to run Nagios to monitor 3 machines and 37 services. My issue is that either the Xen machines network or the network I host on gets slow and then I get 37 emails regarding downed services. I read the FAQ and thought that setting notification_interval to 0 would do the trick based on this link: http://www.nagios.org/faqs/viewfaq.php?faq_id=71&expand=false&showdesc=false Unfortunately I just got 28 emails for one machine. I want to setup Nagios so that if the machine is unreachable, then it should assume that none of the services are reachable and it should only send out one alert. Thanks, James - Take Surveys.

Stop the Nagios daemon and remove the "status.sav"-File in the Nagios-Log-Folder (/var/log/nagios/ over here :-) ). Startup again and Nagios should show all hosts/services as pending.

As the website says, hobbitmon is an development based on bigbrother, adding graphs and reporting. When you compare it to nagios, you should have a look to the 'reporting' section in nagios' navigation on the left. Nagios itself is not capable of diffencing between more than 4 states (ok, warning, critical, unknown), the reporting can only tell you something about availability of a host or service. For long term graphs, you have to extend your nagios installation with an addon like NagiosGrapher, PerfParse etc. - have a look at http://www.nagiosexchange.org.

Re: [Nagios-users] Problems with service scheduling
OMFG! I finally found my error. As usual, it sat 30cm in front of my screen. :-( My Graphs and a look into the source told me about the error: Monitoring was delayed between 8am and 5pm. That is exactly the timeperiod i defined for workhours. And workhours are cut away from every other timeperiod, including 24/7... I guess i need another cup of coffee...

[Nagios-users] Problems with service scheduling
Hi list, i recently ran into problems with the service scheduling inside my nagios installation and i guess i need some help. I'm running Nagios 2.5 with roundabout 300 Hosts ans 2800 services on a 4-CPU Xeon machine with 2 GB RAM. Services are actively monitored. Thing is: I changed the configuration last week to better fit our needs. That included a lot of renaming of Services, Contacts, Contactgroups and Escalations. After I finished, i restarted the nagios daemon yesterday morning at about 9am. Result: the process doesn't start monitoring. I looked into the scheduling queue, and it told me it will start the monitoring at 5pm in the evening. Over the day, i tried to analyse the problem. I reviewed the config, although Nagios verificates it to be good, finding nothing. Restart of the process has no effect, the scheduling queue doesn't change. I tried with the old config (praise svn!), and the Process starts as usual, generating a new scheduling queue and beginning the monitoring. As the only file influencing the schedule queue is the main config file and altough I did not change that, i copied it again from the old to the new config. It didn't show any effect, at least it shows the error seems to live in the host/service/escalation area of my config. When i restarted the Nagios daemon at 4:50pm, waiting till 5pm, i began to monitor as he was expected to. That worked till today morning, when at around 9am (again!) the scheduling queue showed up with the 5pm-thing again. I recompiled nagios with DEBUG1-3 to get some more information. After validating te config, it shows the following: [...] Completed service verification checks Completed host verification checks Completed hostgroup verification checks Completed servicegroup verification checks Completed contact verification checks Completed contact group verification checks Completed service escalation checks Completed service dependency checks Completed host escalation checks Completed host dependency checks Completed command checks Completed command checks Completed extended host info checks Completed extended service info checks Completed circular path checks Completed circular host and service dependency checks Completed global event handler command checks Completed obsessive compulsive processor command checks $0: Cannot enter daemon mode with DEBUG option(s) enabled.

In vain, i guess :-( Now, for my questions: Has anyone seen such behaviour already? Where is that "Next Valid Time" in the Debug-Output from? How is it generated? Is there any tool beside the daemon itself to validate the config files? Thanks for reading all the way down here and please excuse any lingual errors.

Re: [Nagios-users] any tools that can automatically draw a n etwork topology map?
Hi, 陈寅 wrote: > > So far as I know, Nagios cannot automatically draw a network topology > map, neither does OpenNMS, but recently I really need such a tool. Does > anybody know where to find one? Well, Nagios can, if you use the 'parent'-option troughout your config files, you get quite a nice overview in the Status Map. However, with a lot of hosts this is not an option, as the map becomes more and more unreadable. I don't wan't to advertise, but some time ago i tried InterMapper, which was quite impressive to me. It surely is not the only solution, it's not even a free one, but i guess it's not bad at all. So long, Marcus - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

RE: [Nagios-users] Invalid object definition type hostextinfo
In order to get this to work I had to make two changes:
I had used xodtemplate_config_file, I needed to use xedtempate_config_file.
This configuration entry needed to be in cgi.cfg not in nagios.cfg.
Thanks Allan.
Hope this helps someone.

I have been reading the list trying to figure out how to get hostextinfo
working. I'm running 1.3 and I have read on the list that I need to load the
file using:
calpurnia nagios # grep hostext nagios.cfg
xodtemplate_config_file=/etc/nagios/hostextinfo.cfg
calpurnia nagios # cat hostextinfo.cfg
define hostextinfo{
host_name harper

}
calpurnia nagios # /usr/nagios/bin/nagios -v /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg

Any thoughts?
