Re: [Nagios-users] Performance Data from custom bash script

[Ranjib Dey]

just print a string in perf data format, i.e. pipe character , then
 label=value;

e.g.

OK this is fine | metric1=value1;

Re: [Nagios-users] two timeperiods per host/service

[Ranjib Dey]

you can not add more than one check period against a host. what you can do
is to create duplicate services and use the 11x5 check period against them
and do reporting based upon this and modify the original services with a
complementary check period (24x7except11x5).

Re: [Nagios-users] Data Visualization in Nagios

pnp4nagios and graphite (use the graphios bridge to push nagios data

with graphite you'll be able to compose custom graphs, combine multiple

Re: [Nagios-users] performance data configuration doubts

[ranjib dey]

hi andy ,
passive check submissions via nsca can include perf data, theres no
restriction on that.
Though most of the plugins supports perf data, some of them dont. The
example you have mentioned, do return perf data.

/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ping -H 8.8.8.8 -w 15,2% -c 20,5%
PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 12.28
ms|rta=12.284000ms;15.00;20.00;0.00 pl=0%;2;5;0

however this one dont have explicit flags for disabling/enabling perf data,
it always returns perfdata (which is fine i think). But some of the plugins
do support additional flags to enable/disable perfdata output.


most of the standard plugins(except few) do support perfdata, they can
ignore it, as its not mandatory. For more on the perfdata format

http://nagiosplug.sourceforge.net/developer-guidelines.html#AEN201

hope this help,
regards
ranjib

Re: [Nagios-users] Recommendation needed

[ranjib dey]

I'll strongly recommend Graphios+ Graphite. Its bit more work than
pnp4nagios or nagiosgraph, bit its totally worth. You can compose custom
graphs, overlay multiple graphs etc. Graphite is a graphing/charting
solution, while graphios is the nagios add on that can parse nagios
performance data and push it in graphite.

Re: [Nagios-users] monitoring batch jobs

[ranjib dey]

yeah, thats one approach,  to write the status in a file from the batch
job, and then check it via nagios plugin or nrpe plugins. Also, you can
consider the batch job to submit a passive check via nsca , upon
completion. This way  you can avoid repeatedly  checking the status file ,

Re: [Nagios-users] Antwort: Re: Redundant network monitoring

[ranjib dey]

you can use adaptive monitoring too, where state change in one of the check
(the first ip check) will trigger further checks (second ip check); You can
chart the performance data by enabled process_performance_data and related
configuration and then using nagiosgraph or pnpgraph . Optionally if you
have a splunk installation you can use splunk also to graph the performance
data

Re: [Nagios-users] Embedding Icinga or Nagios in Joomla?

[ranjib dey]

I am not aware of any out of the box solution, perhaps you can pull the
nagios check data (like having NDOUtils + mysql triggers, or using global
event handlers or nsca/nrpe based approaches) and expose it as RESTFull
webservices or present it using your own views  (who likes the nagios dash
board any way) ,

Re: [Nagios-users] Multiple geographic sites

[ranjib dey]

NSCA can help you out for centralized monitoring by submitting passive
checks from different nagios servers to a central one, but i have never
worked on tweaking/aggregating those passive checks and apply custom rules
to get a single passive check out of them (but  given the flexibility of
nagios/nsca, i guess there will be a hacky yet smart way for doing this).
Otherwise you can definitely use nrpe to get those remote checks aggregated
into your central server and then use your custom script to implement your
own logic.

Re: [Nagios-users] [Spam] acknowledge triggers a script

[ranjib dey]

Im not sure you can invoke a script just by acknowledging it. As the
acknowledgement doesnt change the service state. But you can definitely
submit a passive check when the service went down , thus triggering a soft
to up or hard to up state change.  This will be a cleaner solution. You can
just use the notification route too but in that case you have to hack a bit
(like polling the email/im [whatever you use to notify] and then trigger an
even handler). We have implemented the second one, where a ruby script polls
the email inbox (via cron) and checks of notification and if it finds
certain notification type (like service downtime acknowledgement ) ,
triggers certain handlers.

Re: [Nagios-users] Performing load tests with Nagios

[ranjib dey]

Its weird idea. Even if you try that you will only need the plugins, not the
server itself (the cgi and the nagis binaries). But even with the plugins
you will be able  to generate a particular kid of stress. If you are
interested in raw OS benchmarks use phoronix or something similar to get he
metrics, if you are load testing against a certain app  then use JMeter o
VSTS (if you are on windows).
