Re: [Nagios-users] Detecting partial outages
Just off the top of my head -- You could have each monitoring station report its status for each datacenter to each other and use check_cluster to set thresholds on the monitoring stations stating that both services have to be down in order to cause an alarm. Of course, I'm sure someone will swoop down from above with a better answer. On Thu, 2007-08-23 at 11:42 -0700, David Barrett wrote: Is there any way to configure Nagios to detect and ignore partial outages? Specifically, I have multiple datacenters for my production service, and then two separate locations from which I do monitoring. It's very rare that any of the production datacenters goes down, but it does happen on occasion where one of the datacenters becomes inaccessible from only *one* of the monitoring stations. (In other words, the datacenter is up and running fine, and appears accessible by real users, but looks down to one of my monitoring stations.) Is there any way to configure Nagios to detect this sort of partial outage condition and ignore it? I only want to be notified if it's reported down by *both* monitoring stations.

Re: [Nagios-users] check_snmp_storage.pl doubt
Why are you using snmp to monitor a local resource? Just use check_disk. It comes as one of the standard nagios-plugins. On Thu, 2007-07-26 at 18:44 +0530, sujith h wrote: Hi , My name is Sujith.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios solution
You could make the host check a 'ping' (not active), and assign a single (active) 'ping' service to each host. That way when the service fails, the host is checked, and then the status of the host will change. Kinda redundant, but it'll work. I'm sure someone like Hugo or Marc will come up with something that'll blow our collective minds right after I click 'send'.

Does anyone know any solution for passive checks on cisco routers? Or how to make the ping service change the state of the host when the ping service becomes critical?

Just a guess though. It helps if you post the config around

Re: [Nagios-users] Host/Ping check and Nagios performance.
That's just how Nagios 2.x works. I hear-tell that 3.x doesn't have this problem. On Thu, 2007-06-07 at 11:07 -0400, Jonathan Call wrote: Is there any reason why Nagios stops running all service checks while it executes check-host-alive/ping on hosts? Can I change that? I cannot find a setting to do it. With the large number of service checks I'm running (1300+) whenever a host goes down (or in some cases just stops answering ICMP) it kills performance on the Nagios server.

[Nagios-users] Nagios SNMP MIB / .1 (Unique ID)
In the standard Nagios SNMP MIB there is an OID for each Host and
Service notifications which is basically a unique identifier for the
event. However, the MIB also specifically states that the ID is not
generated by Nagios, but rather the SNMP application. Does anyone use
this field? How do you populate it? I assume it's meant to be used to
tie together subsequent notifications so whomever is receiving it knows
that they are related to a single event. Is my thinking incorrect?
nHostEventIndex OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX Integer32 (1..65535)
MAX-ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
This object uniquely identifies this host event entry. It is
generated by the SNMP application and is not related to any Nagios
data.
