Can this be wrapped in nrpe? Thanks Exactly that - slaves monitor the master (and vice-versa) via a nrpe-wrapped check_nagios that checks /var/spool/nagios/nagios.log (runs every minute). This is where the event handler is kicked off on any HARD state change. Since any large-scale problem will result in moderate-to-severe latency as checks timeout and reschedule (especially if send_nsca is timing out on passive result submissions as well), there's also a cron job that runs every two minutes that basically does the same thing, just outside the guise of the actual Nagios daemon. The only drawback is it can't self-demote (or you'd be spamming the external command file every time it runs). Prompt self-promotion is the primary goal here, so some latency in self-demotion is perfectly acceptable since the only risk is receiving redundant notifications from each slave for any globally-monitored hosts. That all makes good sense to me :) Thanks Michael - 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=100url=/ ___ 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

Hi,
I ran into same problem, I got it working by changing the insert.pl. I
am not sure
if my config was wrong or there is something wrong in nagios or
nagiosgraph.
Changed code in insert.pl---
# Parse performance data from input
#
sub parseinput {
my $data = shift;
#debug(5, INSERT perfdata: $data);
#my @d = split( /\|\|/, $data);
### Note the the split delimiter in below line, No matter what I do to
configure the
#nagios, I cannot make it print || in the perfdata. It always separated
the
# fields with tab. Also the index used below had to be adjusted according
#to how nagios wrote the performance data file.
my @d = split( /\t/, $data);
return ( lastcheck= $d[1],
hostname = $d[2],
servicedescr = $d[3],
output = $d[6],
perfdata = $d[7],
);
}
Thanks for the response. I modified the insert.pl as stated above but that
still made no difference. If you notice in the nagios.cfg:
service_perfdata_file_template=[SERVICEPERFDATA]\t$TIMET$\t$HOSTNAME$\t$SERVICEDESC$\t$SERVICEEXECUTIONTIME$\t$SERVICELATENCY$\t$SERVICEOUTPUT$\t$SERVICEPERFDATA$
which should actually be:
service_perfdata_file_template=$LASTSERVICECHECK$||$HOSTNAME$||$SERVICEDESC$||$SERVICEOUTPUT$||$SERVICEPERFDATA$
might explain why you arent seing || but are seing tabs in your perfdata. My
problem seems to stem from the fact that i cannot get data written to the
perfdata.log file at all, thus the insert.pl fails to parse anything at all.
And i cannot find a reason why this is the case.
Thanks again for your response, i hope the above helps your issue out.

Hi, According to SNMPv2-MIB, syUpTime (OID you're talking about) is: The time (in hundredths of a second) since the network management portion of the system was last re-initialized.. If you want to get host uptime, you've better to check hrSystemUptime from HOST-RESOURCES-MIB : The amount of time since this host was last initialized. Note that this is different from sysUpTime in the SNMPv2-MIB [RFC1907] because sysUpTime is the uptime of the network management portion of the system.

[Nagios-users] weighted health monitors
This may sound like somewhat of a silly question, but one of our server admins asked me if it were possible to change the 'health' monitors on the Tactical Overview page. In other words, he would like to know if its possible to 'weight' a host and/or service - he thinks some hosts or services should count more than others (i.e. a server providing DNS or AD should weight more than a server providing file serving activities) and would like the health meters on that page to account for this. Is this possible? Thanks for any ideas Michael Weiner - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

[Nagios-users] cgi.cfg
Dear list readers - I am somewhat new to nagios, but i have had a pretty good experience in building, installing, and configuring nagios to this point. I have built 2.7 on a Fedora Core 6 box - patched to the latest revs of all rpms. I am experiencing two issues, which i am having trouble getting around. The first issue, and probably the most concerning is that whenever i define the cgi.cfg in nagios.cfg and run nagios -v /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg it fails complaining about the first unremarked line in the file - so, i remark that one out, and rerun the check and again it complains about the next unremarked line - this continues until the entire file is remarked out. Now i have checked and i dont define any of the items in the cgi.cfg anywhere else, and i dont define that file more than once. I am really confused why it keeps failing, and why i cannot define things like the authentication in the file (using the sample cgi.cfg to start with). The second issue is alerts, that i am not receiving from nagios. I need to look at this a little more closely, but after installing nagiosweb to make the configuration files a little easier for a jr admin to understand and configure - i havent gotten any alerts - and i DO have 1 system not pingable, etc, so i should be getting 'some' Anyway i would appreciate any thoughts on the cgi.cfg problem Thank you in advance Michael Weiner - Take Surveys.
