Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios 3.0 EPN problems....
Hi, Sorry for the late response. I used Nagios 3.0a5, on FreeBSD 6.2-Release. I noticed the p1.pl, included in the distribution was for nagios 2.0, the comments within p1.pl state this. I have downgraded for now, as i use perl check plugins quite much. EPN is truly amazing in regards to system load. Kind Regars, Peter Krüpl.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios 3.0 EPN problems....
Hi Again, I forgot to write how the output get's messed up... The output gets garbled like the following: "&#-64;&#-66;:67 Peer is Up." instead of :"AS9167 Peer is Up." This happens when i have "use_embedded_perl_implicitly=1" configured When i have "use_embedded_perl_implicitly=0" configured and include "# nagios: +epn" in my plugins the output is ok. Since i have no clue whetever EPN is used as i do not get any EPN debug logs, i can not tell if it works.

[Nagios-users] Nagios 3.0 EPN problems....
Hi Group, I am currently trying to get EPN up and running for Nagios 3.0a5. So far i works partially... but i have some problems. 1. Plugin output gets garbled eg: 2. No log output from p1.pl is generated... Has anyone expeirienced similar issues, or am i he only one ?

Re: [Nagios-users] submitting external commands remotely
Hi, I doubt you can use sockets over NFS, someone correct me if i am wrong. What you could do is to execute the script on the nagios host, via ssh. If you normaly do this on the nagios host: scheduledowntine.sh host ServerA 13:00 14:00 You could do this on a remote machine: ssh nagioshost "scheduledowntine.sh host ServerA 13:00 14:00" You would be prompted for a password every time you do this, but you could use rsa/dsa keys, then there would be no need to enter a password each time. Safe and simple :) Cheers, Peter Iphtashu Fitz wrote: I have a handful of scripts that I've written that submit commands to our Nagios monitor remotely, so I'm pretty comfortable with working with external commands. I now need to be able to submit external commands from an external host. In a nutshell I want to schedule downtime of specific services based on recurring tasks that are run on those remote machines. I've written a script that will schedule service downtime and it works fine when I run it on the nagios server. I tried exporting the nagios/var directory via NFS and mounted it from one of the remote machines so that they could write to nagios.cmd. But when I run the script on these remote machines Nagios never responds to those external commands. The script appears to successfully write to the NFS mounted nagios.cmd but Nagios never gets the message, and it never shows up in nagios.log. Is it possible for a remote machine to communicate with Nagios this way (NFS mounted nagios.cmd), or is there a better approach for submitting external commands from an external host? - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

[Nagios-users] Using tcp load balancing proxy & NRPE for load distribution
Hello Group, As i have read a lot on this list and had some good use of it, i figured maybe it would be about time to give something back to the list. I am in charge or running some nagios machines at work, as i make heavy use of perl and have many services to watch, i came up with a little idea for an easy distrubution of the monitoring load. I simply execute all service checks via nrpe, nrpe contacts a small tcp loadbalancing proxy called balance. Balance then simply distributes the nrpe connections i a round robin manner between several hosts, that run the actual servicecheck plugin vire the nrpe server. The only distributed configuration i need is the actual nrpe configuration on the checkhosts, the check_nrpe2 plugin on the main nagios server is very lightweight and i presently monitor about 1200 services (300 sec poll cycle), and even send back performance data via nrpe. Should one of the check execution hosts fail, no problem balance takes care of it and redirects the nrpe connection to a hosts that is alive, is all check hosts fail, as a last resort one could also run nrpe on the actual nagios host as a last resort. I hope this can be of use for some of you.. -Peter Krüpl --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!
