[Nagios-users] Scheduler issue - nagios 2.0
Greetings: I have a nagios implementation on Suse SLES 9.0, compiled 2.0 from source. I am seeing extremely high latency - in excess of 300 seconds on average with service checks. Host checks are running fairly high too - also over 300 seconds on average. Not exactly a large config either - 128 hosts, 235 services. Machine is a single P3-1000 with a gig of memory. Uptime shows cpu utilization at a respectable 0.02 load. /proc/meminfo shows over 700 meg free memory. Host checks are averaging 4.16 seconds execution time and service checks are averaging 2.42 seconds. I am using the "smart scheduler" with both the hosts and service checks. Any ideas why I am seeing such high latency rates? -- Ron Gage (LPIC1 MCP A+ Net+) Westland, Michigan This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.

[Nagios-users] Can templates be cascaded together?
Can we cascade a template as in the following:
define service{
name blah
...
register 0
}
define service{
name info
use blah
...
register 0
}
define service{
name checkit
use info
...
}
Why would I want to use such an arrangement? Simple: the "blah" service defines
generic values I want for ALL service checks (enable_notifications, etc...).
The "info" service defines generic values for each check type - check_ping for
example (check_command, service description, etc...). Of course, "checkit" is
where I define which service to check on which host.
Would this work?

RE: [Nagios-users] Question: is there any interest in a WMI client for Linux?
Quoting Ryan Wilcox <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: ron... it is understood that WMI would give users the ability to go way above and beyond the 'check_nt' command... what other capability are you interested in building in that 'check_nt' doesn't provide? From a monitoring perspective, what more would you need than WMI? You get direct access to the perfmon counters and hardware enumeration. You can even enumerate services and their state via WMI (the Win32_BaseService object). Beyond that, Nagios itself covers the rest of the need, monitoring wise.

Hans: Quoting Hans Engelen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Is that a trick question :-) ? Just want to make sure that I'm not going to be wasting my time in something that people aren't interested in! :) Short answer : Oooh yeah. Cheers.

[Nagios-users] Question: is there any interest in a WMI client for Linux?
Hi everyone: I am thinking about writing a WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) client for Linux. This would basically be a command line way to perform various performance queries to a Windows box - with absolutely no agent software anywhere. All that would be required on the Windows side of things is a service account. This would not be for allowing Windows computers to query Linux - at least not immediately. Allowing a Windows computer to query a Linux computer is downstream from this. What can WMI provide? For example, hardware inventory, performance counters, various disk stats (per logical disk), and so on. Would there be any interest in such a program? -- Ron Gage (LPIC1 MCP A+ Net+) Westland, Michigan This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

RE: [Nagios-users] BUG Confirmed: No Service Notifications
Well, I got the problem fixed. Thanks to everyone who provided helpful hints. The problem here was that there was no notification_options in the service definitions in the config file. The bug here is that notification_options is required in service definitions – yet the config passed the syntax check without incident. Either the syntax check is wrong for not noticing that a required statement was missing or the documentation is wrong for showing that the statement is required.

Hi: I have a fairly small Nagios installation (25 hosts, 50 services). I can not get any service notifications to fire at all. None. I get host notifications without any problems, but absolutely no service notifications. Nothing in the notification logs either. The service outage is being properly recorded in the logs, but no notification is firing. I have verified that service notifications are turned on in the config files and that the mail command is properly defined. I have also tried (via the CGI interface) turning notifications off and on for various services and hosts – no difference. The part that really bugs me is that there is nothing in the notification logs when a service problem occurs. Can anyone offer me some guidance on where to look for this?

[Nagios-users] Service notifications not firing - nothing in logs.
Greetings: I am having a bit of a problem with service notifications. It seems that they are simply refusing to trigger at all. Host notifications are working just fine, but nothing for the service notifications – not even in the notification logs. This is with 2.0b6 on apache 1.3.33 (Slackware 10.1). The system is detecting service outages, but does not fire off (or even try to fire off) any notifications. HELP! Should I post relevent excerpts from my config files?
