To see if the process is 'running' your best bet is using check_proc, however, if you want to see if the process is still functioning and not hung, you'll need to interact with the process. As Edwin stated, if your process opens a port, you can connect to it and check for a default response using check_tcp (or udp). If you wrote the java process (or have access to the developers) you can ask that they build in monitoring responses. I have a java listener that I added a hook for a specific string. If I send a specific string to its UDP port, it returns it's PID and Timestamp. What does the Java process do? If it doesn't open a port, does it write to its log that you can check modification times on? If you can interact with the process you can monitor it. If it just runs and doesn't interact with others, you can at least monitor that the process is still running. In general if you can check its health manually, you can write something for Nagios to use. -- Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.

Thanks for the detailed info Andreas. I still think the "nagios event -> email -> nagios server" is the only realistic solution.

-Original Message- From: dale sykora [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 12, 2008 2:10 PM To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] Nagios for client management? Hello, Nagios seems to be a good client monitor system. I was wondering if anyone also uses it as a client management system? By management, I mean running update scripts and other software on various Linux clients. For instance, I'd like to be able to tell clients to update a perl module with cpan or yum update some_rpm_package or download, untar, compile, install some in house software. I could write a client script to poll a server every so often asking what todo, but would rather not reinvent the wheel if something like this exists in Nagios/plugin or other software. Thanks, [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Using Nagios specifically to run updates may not be the best solution. That being said... I've used it to compare installed versions of software with a list of requirements. The plugin would handle the update if needed. It was very specific. It would also handle monitoring config file mod dates. Could you do that... yes... should you? Only you can answer that one. - 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=100&url=/ ___ 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

Is there a proper way to only send alerts on the 2nd or 3rd "CRITICAL - Plugin timed out while executing system call" message (a true problem) or better yet, increase the timeout for service checks? I never get a host message, just the services. Unfortunately, I only have ssh access to the remote hosts.

I am using the latest version of Nagios. I am doing most of my checks using NRPE and I noticed that when it e-mails or pages me about an alert some of the information from the error appears to be getting cut off, is there a way to make it so that it e-mails me the entire message and not to have it cut off some of the text? I am not sure if there is a limit in Nagios on the error that nagios can handle? Any information would be appreciated. Devin Email alerts are just another command in the commands.cfg file. By default it uses the 'mail' program, and pipes in the body. For certain alerts, we have written a perl script that uses Net::SMTP to send much nicer and more detailed messages. That's the beauty of Nagios... almost everything can be replaced or modified like that. -Mike - 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=100&url=/ ___ 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
