maybe you can check out the cron table to see what are running periodically. but i think the load is no problem, unless the value remains very high for a long time. 2011/7/20 Javier González : > Thank you Yueh-Hung Liu, > Is it possible to discover what´s the problem with the Load, which processes > take all the CPU time periodically ??? > Could i do something to improve the CPU usage ? > > 2011/7/19 Yueh-Hung Liu >> >> load is not the same as cpu usage, load is the number of queued >> processes in a period. >> maybe there are processes waiting for some events, such as I/O. >> >> >> 2011/7/19 Javier González : >> > Hello, >> > I have seen a lot peaks on the CPU LOAD of my nagios machine (See >> > pnp4nagios >> > graphs on pdf document attached). >> > I don´t know which process/processes are the ones that use too much CPU >> > on >> > that periods because the PC is only used for Nagios (And plugins used >> > with >> > it) and all the plugins defined have a check_period of 1 minute and >> > there is >> > a lot of periods where the load is near to 0 (so what happens every 2 >> > hours >> > more or less that use so much CPU???) >> > I have tried to find the process that causes this behavior with the >> > "top" >> > command but %Cpu idle is always (also on the peaks of the CPU LOAD) more >> > han >> > 70% and no process uses more than 4% of CPU (See three examples of TOP >> > command where %CPU idle is always high but Load vary a lot on each case) >> > ** >> > top - 11:52:27 up 9:51, 1 user, load average: 0.09, 0.56, 0.62 >> > Tasks: 102 total, 1 running, 101 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie >> > Cpu(s): 7.9%us, 1.5%sy, 0.0%ni, 88.4%id, 1.0%wa, 0.3%hi, 0.8%si, >> > 0.0%st >> > Mem: 2050176k total, 675704k used, 1374472k free, 132628k buffers >> > Swap: 2096472k total, 0k used, 2096472k free, 84k cached >> > top - 13:30:05 up 11:29, 2 users, load average: 1.53, 1.27, 0.83 >> > Tasks: 110 total, 3 running, 107 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie >> > Cpu(s): 9.2%us, 1.5%sy, 0.0%ni, 88.6%id, 0.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.7%si, >> > 0.0%st >> > Mem: 2050176k total, 708540k used, 1341636k free, 139020k buffers >> > Swap: 2096472k total, 0k used, 2096472k free, 334668k cached >> > top - 13:16:39 up 1 day, 11:15, 2 users, load average: 2.45, 2.03, >> > 1.96 >> > Tasks: 106 total, 1 running, 105 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie >> > Cpu(s): 7.8%us, 1.4%sy, 0.0%ni, 89.1%id, 1.0%wa, 0.2%hi, 0.5%si, >> > 0.0%st >> > Mem: 2050176k total, 845668k used, 1204508k free, 167244k buffers >> > Swap: 2096472k total, 0k used, 2096472k free, 351224k cached >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > Is there some way to find wich process cause this high CPU LOAD ?

Re: [Nagios-users] Referencing resource.cfg variable in SNMP COMMUNITY
i think macros can only be used in command definition. if all remote hosts' snmp strings have been modified, changing of snmp community name for checking is not so difficult since you only have to modify some configuration files on nagios monitor instead of every remote hosts.

Re: [Nagios-users] Question about check_disk "-L" option
it's not an error, you specify to check /usr/local only and it's a remote fs, so no local fs will be checked and the "-L" option just test the access to nfs.

Re: [Nagios-users] Strange problem using the obsessive/compulsive service processor in Nagios Core 3.2.3
if you use ocsp service/host commands to send results to the secondary server, the primary server will wait the ndo module to update the mysql database for completing the commands. it should be an issue of latency, especially you use the obsessive function on *EVERY* check.

Re: [Nagios-users] pnp4nagios?
that should be an RRD issue, not pnp4nagios at all. if you would like to include the historical data, you need a process to "restore" them into the RRD files. after that pnp4nagios can show all honestly and add new data for you from now on.

Re: [Nagios-users] Create services dynamically for a specific host
no. you have to define the services before Nagios can "display" them, otherwise Nagios won't know where the passive checks it received should go, this is the rule. but maybe you can do a trick: while a passive check occurs, create a config file "dynamically" for the subject service, restart Nagios to read the new config file, then issue an external command to set the status of the service. just an idea, no detail now.

Re: [Nagios-users] Calculation of nagios latency in nagiostas
because at any moment in physical, not all checks will be performed, therefore Nagios only knows the "previous" average latency and the latency of services which have just finished. Nagios won't keep the latency of checks in somewhere so it has to calculate the "present" average latency right after each check while it has the newest latency of that check in hand. you can see the formula that while the total latency is restored, the number of checks will be decreased by 1, that means the latency of the check just finished will be added to calculate new average latency. this method can make sure the average latency is "dynamical" and "real time".

this isn't a bug. by reviewing the source codes, you can find that Nagios(more precisely, the CGIs) just do this way. i have no clue why Nagios won't show "partial" hostgroups if one has no access to all host members. maybe for performance issue?

Re: [Nagios-users] High Latency with service checks
another possibility, do you use addon to do task after "every" checking? for example, update RRD files for performance graphing, sometimes that should increase the checking latency. 2011/2/16 Yu Watanabe : > Thank you very much for the reply. > > > Assaf Flatto さんは書きました: >>Yu Watanabe wrote: >>> Hello All. >>> >>> I would like to get an advice with nagios latency issue. >>> >>> In nagios 3.0.6 with RHEL 4, would there be a possibility >>> that service check latency hikes even though the sar or iostat >>> usage is not in relatively high load usage?

Re: [Nagios-users] Question on setting up a specialized status.cgi page
please review the document of objects definition, the following quoted
from servicegroup definition:
members:
This is a list of the descriptions of services (and the names of their
corresponding hosts) that should be included in this group. Host and
service names should be separated by commas. This directive may be
used as an alternative to the servicegroups directive in service
definitions. The format of the member directive is as follows (note
that a host name must precede a service name/description):

Re: [Nagios-users] avoid notifications after status change from unreachable to down
write an event handler which will be triggered while the parent system comes up from down. this handler will schedule a downtime for each child systems, during the downtime Nagios won't send notifications; or this handler can send a passive check with status OK for each children, the hard/soft counters will be reset. both can be done by using external commands.

Re: [Nagios-users] nagiosgrapher: adding further DS to rrd database
if my memory isn't going wrong, rrdtool has no direct approach to do that. you have to dump the specific rrd file to a text format(XML), edit it with adding extra DSs, then restore it to an rrd file. maybe there are some 3rd-party utilities can do that, you can search them.

Re: [Nagios-users] Check_snmp -d & -s
you can write a wrap script, which would be the check command, to deal the return string and report correct status to Nagios. of course this script will use check_snmp in it.

nothing will be known without checking. you want more precise data you have to do more checks, that is, decrease the "check_interval" value.

Re: [Nagios-users] first_notification_delay problem
no bug in your case.
"first_notification_delay" is just to postpone the notification for a
(hard)status change, Nagios won't check the status during the delay
period.
in your example, a notification will be sent at 09-02-2011 07:17:41 to
reflect the critical event at 09-02-2011 07:07:41, no matter what
happened then.

Re: [Nagios-users] Understanding Unhandled Services / Hosts
because the host is down, it assumes all its service are also unavailable. therefore the first priority task is to "handle" the problem of the host. so what i guess is just for simplifying display, only the host which is down appears in Unhandled section.

Re: [Nagios-users] SMTP server update
you're welcome. back to your question, Nagios has no slot to specify an SMTP server to be used, it relys on the system where it'on. to utilize an "external" SMTP server, maybe it could be done by specifying one in the configuration of your local SMTP server.

Re: [Nagios-users] SMTP server update
mail notification is done by commands defined in your Nagios' configuration files. if you can send mail from the server that Nagios is installed on, you don't need to specify SMTP or whatever anymore.

[Nagios-users] Rule-Based Notifier
Hi all, I have a new work here: http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Addons/Notifications/*-Notification-Managers/Rule%252DBased-Notifier/details This simple Perl script is a rule-based notification addon for Nagios. Nagios has its own notification logic which decides whether a notification for an alert should be sent. If this script is defined as the notification commands, further conditions can be defined by admins to control whether a notification should be "actually" sent. By using this script, Nagios admins can decide: WHO should(or not) be notified, notification for WHICH hosts/services should(or not) be controlled, on WHAT states should(or not) be concerned, at WHEN a notification should(or not) be sent, and HOW to send a notification. All these features are implemented by defining some "rules" which will be matched by this script while Nagios hand off a notification to it. Rules are defined in a plain text config file(see below), no database is needed. At first I wrote this script just for myself(as an Nagios admin) to fulfill different needs from different Nagios contacts: someone want to be notified on some specific situations, while another contacts don't want be "annoyed" on some conditions, etc. This script has been tested and used for several monthes in the system administered by me, it should be workable and now is released to share with anyone who need it. Perhaps many functions this script provided could be achievable by complex Nagios configuration, it is here for another, simpler I think, choice. Any suggestion and feedback are greatly welcome. Thanks. Y.H. -- Gaining the trust of online customers is vital for the success of any company that requires sensitive data to be transmitted over the Web.

Re: [Nagios-users] Difference between the timeout service and orphaned service
i think Nagios handles a check by the following flow: [1]schedule a check (into event queue) [2]time to go! fire the check (remove it from the queue) [3]wait for a result [4a] check finished normally (got a result) [4b] timeout (terminate the check process) [5]go to [1] (reschedule) an orphaned check could happen while Nagios in [3] but never proceed to next step. it can't reach [4a] because the checking process is dead. (killed by someone) it can't reach [4b] because it has nothing to terminate. (process is gone, Nagios loses its control) finally, Nagios never go to [5], i.e. it won't reschedule and execute the check again. so, the answer to your question is yes. 2011/1/5 Yu Watanabe : > Thank you for the reply. > > Could I ask you a further question? > > In the manual the orphaned services are defined as > > "This option allows you to enable or disable checks for orphaned service > checks.

Re: [Nagios-users] Difference between the timeout service and orphaned service
they are not totally related. "service check timeout" tells when Nagios should kill a check process ACTIVELY. "orphaned service check" would let Nagios find out whether a check process is killed BY OTHERS.

Re: [Nagios-users] Service Escalation via Host Group
not sure with the cause of your problem
maybe you can check the values of use_regexp_matching and
use_true_regexp_matching.
but by your configuration, all services will be escalated, not only
services of norm-notify.
