Re: [Nagios-users] R: check_udp error message
You need to send a message that the listening daemon will understand. The check_snmp plugin speaks the SNMP language so it knows how to construct a packet that snmpd will understand. I imagine an OID is a requirement for check_snmp, as well as community string or security credentials, those are all part of the send. If you want to use check_udp for this, then you have to construct that packet yourself. On the flip-side, you should know the expected response to a known query. If you make an SNMP request for .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.4.0 you should expect a string from the syscontact line from your snmpd.conf in response. Just like you would use check_http rather than check_tcp for an Apache service, it's probably best to use a custom program like check_dns rather than check_udp to check a DNS service. In the case of SNMP, I prefer to use or write scripts that are specific to what I'm polling rather than using a generic request/response program. For instance, a program like check_snmp_load.pl could be alot more robust than running check_snmp -o .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.10.1.3.1 alone. -f On Thu, 5 Sep 2013, Marco Borsani wrote: Date: Thu, 5 Sep 2013 09:06:38 +0200 From: Marco Borsani m.bors...@it.net Reply-To: Nagios Users List nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net To: 'Andreas Ericsson' a...@op5.se, 'Nagios Users List' nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] R: check_udp error message Ok, but what can I send and receive to/from the host?

Re: [Nagios-users] rpmbuild nagios-3.5.0
Just speaking for myself here, in my experience distro-level packaging usually isn't part of a project's goals and can be an extreme distraction considering the vast number of distros out there, all with their own little quirks. Spec files and other contrib items work their way into source trees and are useful until the 3rd party API changes and the original maintainers lose interest. I'd look into the checkin history of the spec file to see if anyone has been making regular updates.

Re: [Nagios-users] High Availabilty with Nagios
While HA can be a great thing I've always been of the opinion that a monitoring setup needs to have as few moving parts as possible. The more complexity to the monitor, the more chance you'll be chasing monitoring issues rather than site issues. And everthing you add on top of the monitor also needs to be monitored. So somehow that F5 is going to need an out-of-band monitor because if it dies then your Nagios host may well not have a way to contact you about it unless you've dual homed it which brings up a whole other set of issues. The closest I got to HA at my last gig was creating a CNAME for the active Nagios host so in a failover you point the CNAME to the new box and at least passive checks can still roll in (after DNS timeout of course, which I say is better than reconfiging every NSCA clent). -f On Thu, 9 May 2013, Steve Shipway wrote: Date: Thu, 9 May 2013 09:19:17 + From: Steve Shipway s.ship...@auckland.ac.nz Reply-To: Nagios Users List nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] High Availabilty with Nagios Does anyone have an HA setup for Nagios that works?

Problem is that I have a service (an IPSEC tunnel) which is dependent on an outside source. If the outside party fails (whenever they do updates once a week) I actually kill the tunnel when attempting a restart. To solve this I would like to keep trying the restart. I could do this in a SOFT state by increasing the max check attempts to a higher number... but than I would never get a notification. Letting the service go to a HARD state (to get the notification) would limit the restart attempt to just the one event when the service enters the HARD state. I think there are 2 possibilities: - Keep the service in a SOFT state and send out a notification on attempt X. - Let the service go to a HARD state but keep on trying the restart. Is there anyway I could achieve this? Or am I completely missing something. Peter -- Don't let slow site performance ruin your business.

Re: [Nagios-users] Transient errors
Yes, we have to make the same kinds of tweaks in our environment. Sometimes I've had to develop a new plugin or monitor different elements that will alert me to the situation more quickly.

Hence finding ways to keep notifications from going out on situations that will resolve themselves are kind of an issue. I've played with how many failures in a row are needed to cause a notification, and have that set differently for things I'm monitoring across long links (Beijing, say) compared to things I'm monitoring locally or in New York. Of course, one problem with that is that it makes it take longer before a real problem causes a notification. Right now it takes over 15 minutes for the total failure of our link to Beijing to cause a notification. For things that are numeric values, I can play with the critical and warning ranges to potentially reduce false positives. That, at least, doesn't slow down recognition of total failures. Some things just don't seem to fit the Nagios model -- for example it's quite normal for the SQL server to pull 100% of the cpu for periods now and then, but if it goes on too long, *that's* unusual. Hmm; I suppose I could override the number of failures needed to cause a notification in the service definition for htose, couldn't I? There may be some things I should just stop monitoring (there aren't clear-cut okay and bad behaviors that I can quantify). I guess I'm wondering if there are useful basic approaches to handling this problem that I'm missing, or if I just need to work through the details more carefully. I'm startled at how often I get isolated failures for no apparent reason. Is that normal for most people monitoring services? I think I'm finding my connections time out now and then due simply to load, without the load actually being at all high. Apart from the great writeup Mark wrote, I'd like to add that you can also set first_notification_delay for both hosts and services. That will make the services and hosts appear red and critical in the ui, but it will delay notifications for AT LEAST the specified amount of time (multiplied with interval_length, so usually it means minutes). I've stressed AT LEAST, since first_notification_delay requires that a check is run in order to trigger the notification, so the delay could sometimes be greater than what you specify. Some people are a bit freaked out by that, so you'd best know it before you start using it. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.erics...@op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war on peace. -- Virtualization Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ ___ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature -- Virtualization Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/___ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null

I'm setting '-c 99,4,10' to basically ignore the 1 minute value and alarm on 5 and 15 minutes. Unfortunately, unlike the CPU percentages, the load numbers should be based on the number of processors. The NETSL option doesn't do that. One option is to have a series of service commands based on the number of processors, but I'm considering writing a new mode that will using the STAND option to get the number of CPUs and then use that as a multiplication factor for alarms.

Re: [Nagios-users] nagios.cmd permission issue
I have a fairly complicated setup at work where I don't have the option of changing groups around system-wide so what I do is edit the startup file instead. You could edit the start() function to have an explicit chgrp on the command-pipe to whatever group you need for your setup (after the daemon has been started of course so the command-pipe file exists). We use chgrp apache /var/log/nagios/rw/nagios.cmd. It's a bit of a kludge but it works! Another possibility is that your setup is just fine but the nagcmd group (of which both the apache and nagios users should be a member) was created after your apache process was already running. In this case you just need to restart apache so it can pick up its new group permissions. -f On Sun, 3 Oct 2010, Ilan Berkner wrote: Date: Sun, 3 Oct 2010 02:55:25 -0400 From: Ilan Berkner iberk...@gmail.com Reply-To: Nagios Users List nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] nagios.cmd permission issue Hi, New to Nagios...

Add -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no to your check_by_ssh command line.
Or you can edit ~nagios/.ssh/known_hosts, remove the line for that host,
then su to the nagios user and manually ssh to the host. Type yes when

I see that you're logging in by IP, but in the config snippet you

$HOSTADDRESS$ will expand to the same value as host_name. You'll need
to log in using the same exact address (in this case, name) Nagios will

Re: [Nagios-users] Installing Nagios-Plugins [make errors]
Hi Juki, It looks like the compiler cannot find the OpenSSL libraries for linking. The http plugin needs these libraries for the https calls. Find the libcryptoxxx.so and libsslxxx.so libraries location, then try adding the path manually to the Makefile using the -L option, e.g. -L/usr/local/ssl/lib. Alternatively, you can try using the gcc environment variable LIBRARY_PATH or LDFLAGS to force the compiler to find the SSL libraries. $ LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/ssl/lib $ export LIBRARY_PATH LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/ssl/lib export LDFLAGS Run make once more and see what happens.

Hello, We have completed a failover setup for Nagios and it's running very smoothly so far, besides one issue. Let me explain. The slave-Nagios starts checking services and sending out notifications in case the master fails - perfect. I have configured the Master to send passive service checks via NSCA to the slave so that the service and hoststates are always known to the slave in case it needs to take over - perfect. However: If I, for example, mute a service in the masters' Webinterface, I'd need a way for syncing such settings to the slave too. Or better said: I just don't want the actual service states synced, but it's assoiciated settings from the webinterface too.

Re: [Nagios-users] check_snmp - warning numbers
1. Make sure snmpd is running on the host. (classic mistake)
2. Make sure your community string and/or credentials are the same on the
host and client.
3. Make sure you're using the same snmp version on client and server (v1,
v2c, or v3)
4. Try running a tcpdump on the host while you're attempting the snmpwalk
to verify that the snmp requests are reaching the host. At the same time
verify that the host is trying to send out responses.
# tcpdump udp port 161
I'm sure there are more tests you can do but this is a start.

Hola de nuevo...
I'll answer you in English so that anybody in the list can understand
and participate in this subject.
I think that if you don't know exactly which parameter to monitor you
should browse the whole OID list that you receive when you do a snmpwalk
on your switch, and identify the ones that fit your needs, with the help
of the website I said yesterday, or any other OIDs reference.
My case: The only thing I want to detect is if there is any damaged port
in any of my switches. So what I did was to snmpwalk on a switch which I
positively knew that had its port #2 damaged, and discover which OID was
significantly different for this port. And the one I found is:
iso.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.1.7
(maybe you can find it as its equivalent: SNMPv2-SMI::mib-2.10.7.2.1.7)
defined as: a count of frames for which the first transmission attempt
on a particular interface is delayed because the medium is busy.
The thing is that it's the only OID I found that gave a very high value
for port #2 (about 65,000 or so) and 0 for the rest of ports that work
properly.
The command I defined for this was like this:
define command {
command_name check_port
command_line $USER1$/check_snmp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C password -O
iso.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.1.7.$ARG1$ -w 1 -c 10 -u retries
}
For sure there must be somebody else in the list who can give to you a
more detailed or a more formally correct answer...
Hasta la proxima,
Alejandro

Hola Alejandro,
Ahora otra cosa:
De que manera crees que pueda chequear los puertos de mi switch con
nagios para tener una idea m?s clara de lo que est? sucediendo?
Porque esos paquetes entrantes con errores no se si son por causa de la
PC o de los puerto del switch...
Muchas Gracias...
Cristian
Hola Mat?as... :-) and hola everyone...
There exists a magical website where to identify every OID you can check
with SNMP, the link is:
http://support.ipmonitor.com/mibs_byoidtree.aspx
For your particular issue, if you type RFC1213-MIB at the Search
for: form, click the result given (RFC1213-MIB), and then View:
Oid-tree, you'll be able to locate ifInErrors(14) at the tree shown,
and clicking it you'll find its Description, which reads literally:
The number of inbound packets that contained errors preventing them
from being deliverable to a higher-layer protocol.
That's the answer to your question!!
Now some other questions appear...
Wouldn't it be nicer to know what exactly are you monitoring before you
monitor it, so you could properly interpret the results?
Is that parameter (number of inbound packets that contained errors and
blah blah blah...) significant enough to determine if a port is working
properly or not?
Hope this helps...
Best regards,
Alejandro

[Nagios-users] hint on service dependency configuration
Hi list,
I need a little input on a configuration problem. I've got a list of
hosts, which are running NRPE to check local services. So, if the nrpe
daemon on one of these hosts stops working, I get alarms for every
configured nrpe-check. Now I thought that the service dependency would
be the configuration of my choice to suppress multiple alarms. But I'm
a bit confused how to configure this correctly.
I'm checking the nrpe service itself on these hosts, and want to
suppress alarms for the other nrpe-based services if the nrpe check
fails. Is there a way to configure this in an optimized way, without
having one servicedependency block for each host and each nrpe check ?
As far as I understand servicedependency config, there can be multiple
hosts as dependent, but only one dependent service with one depending
host and service, which would be a pain to configure with 130 hosts :)
I would imagine doing something like that (for example):
# Suppress notifications for nrpe-based services if nrpe check itself fails
define servicedependency {
host_name *
service_description NRPE
dependent_host_name $self
dependent_service_description DISKS,SWAP,USERS
execution_failure_criteria w,u,c,p
notification_failure_criteria o,w,u,c,p
}
Does anyone have an idea how to create something like that?

Re: [Nagios-users] hint on service dependency configuration
Hi,
2009/4/27 Assaf Flatto assaf.fla...@ssp-intl.com:
What you want is like what you put in the example above but you want to
change it to
define servicedependency {
host_name *
service_description NRPE
dependent_host_name *
dependent_service_description DISKS,SWAP,USERS
execution_failure_criteria w,u,c,p
notification_failure_criteria o,w,u,c,p
}
Hmmm, you're right, this is indeed working. Didn't think so, because
my first tests failed, but after all, it looks like there were some
other configuration mistakes in it.
However, given the above example, wouldn't that mean, that - if I
define two hosts named web01 and web02 for example - that if the nrpe
check on web01 fails, it would also suppress DISKS notifications of
web02 ? I'm not sure how this is handled internally by nagios to
prevent such scenarios ... and I think it wouldn't be good if a full
disk on one of the servers wouldn't generate notifications if another
host's nrpe daemon check is suppressing this.

But I'm still getting Could not complete SSL handshake, is the above
configuration correct or can I not use domain names instead of IP's
You have to adjust the olny_from line, your hosts.allow allows 17.0.0.1
to
connect to nrpe, but xinetd rejects the request, because you just allows
connections from 127.0.0.1 (or is there the 2 missing in the hosts.allow
line?)
you can simply write the domain name to only_from.
If you use the hosts.allow you could even exclude the only_from line from
the xinetd configuration by setting 3 in front of the line.

Christian

[spam?] [Nagios-users] stopping and starting NDO daemon
Hi All,
We've just setup nagios 3 using NDO (to support Nagvis) and I realized
that NDO does not come with an init script. I found one post to the list
(http://article.gmane.org/gmane.network.nagios.user/52477/match=ndo+init)
from about a year ago, someone was asking for help incorporating the NDO
daemon into the Nagios init script, but there were no responses. I'm
wondering how others are handling the stopping and starting of the NDO
daemon? Would it be better to incorporate it into the Nagios init script
or should it have it's own, has somebody already done this that is willing
to share with the list?
Thanks,
-greg

Hi Marc,
I've tried doing as you suggested, but my post check command does not
seem to be being executed for some reason. Do you have any idea what I
might have done wrong? Here is the setup I've used;
In nagios.cfg
obsess_over_hosts=1
ochp_command=host_check
And then in commands.cfg;
define command
{
command_namehost_check
command_line /usr/local/nagios/host_check.pl
$HOSTADDRESS$ $HOSTEVENTID$
}
Finally, my simple Perl script to test the output;
#!/usr/bin/perl
open MYFILE, data.txt;
print MYFILE Logging for server $ARGV[0], Event ID: $ARGV[1] \n;
close (MYFILE);
Unfortunately, the script is not being called for some reason. I know
the script itself is working fine, as I've tested it independently.
I've made sure that Nagios is restarted, and the pre-flight check
doesn't report any problems. Any thoughts on what the problem might
be?
Cheers,
Chris

Re: [Nagios-users] sending external commands remotely
Here are 2 ways to do this: 1. Click thru the web interface the normal way you would (un)silence the service(s)/servicegroup(s) in question but before submitting the form do a View-Source and use the variables and values there to create yourself a properly encoded URI and call it with wget. ex: (silence) wget -O - http://nagios-server/nagios/cgi-bin/cmd.cgi?cmd_typ=23cmd_mod=2host=hostnameservice=svcdesc /dev/null (unsilence) wget -O - http://nagios-server/nagios/cgi-bin/cmd.cgi?cmd_typ=22cmd_mod=2host=hostnameservice=svcdesc /dev/null I haven't read thru the source or tried these examples so I don't know if you also need to include btnSubmit=Commit to the URI. Or perhaps it won't work at all as a GET instead of a POST. 2. Write a CGI that accepts host, service, and silence/unsilence variables. Feed the results directly to the Nagios command pipe (/var/log/nagios/rw/nagios.cmd). Once you've verified your input args, feed them to the pipe like: my $time = time(); open(CMD,/var/log/nagios/rw/nagios.cmd); print CMD [$time] DISABLE_SVC_NOTIFICATIONS;hostname;servicename\n; close(CMD); Again, I haven't tested any of this, but it oughtta work in theory. -f On Mon, 16 Mar 2009, Eric Pearce wrote: Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2009 14:48:55 -0700 From: Eric Pearce epea...@amberpoint.com To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] sending external commands remotely I'd like to be able to remotely turn off/turn on service/host checks. For example, a remote machine could turn off a service check while running a backup and turn it back on after it is done. Ideally, this is a simple perl script, wrapper for 'wget', batch file, etc that could run on Unix or Windows (maybe using SSL for securing the password?). I assume it would talk directly to cgi on the nagios server. I've seen some others asking for something similar, but no definitive replies. My understanding of NSCA is that is simply for collecting passive information, and can't actually change things, right? Yes, I could schedule downtime via Nagios, but the downtime is of variable length, the so the exact backup window is not known in advance. The machine doing the actual backup knows best when turn monitoring on and off. NFS mounting the nagios command file is not an option. I did see the old remote_ctl.pl script on nagiosexchange but I don't want to do anything non-standard on the nagios server if possible.

[Nagios-users] Nagios and NRPE on AIX with plugin error on increased number of checks
Hello all, i'm running Nagios (3.0.5) and NRPE (1.4.13) both on AIX (mostly 5.3, but a view 5.2 clients). This worked pretty well until yesterday. After adding some new checks suddenly _all_ NRPE-based client checks for all hosts return No output returned from plugin. Manually run from the shell, the checks return valid results. If i remove some checks - re- gardless which check specifically - and keep the number of NRPE checks under a certain level (~700-800) everything works just fine again. I already verified the system has enough resources (disk space, memory, CPU, user limits, ...) and turned up the Nagios debugging to 4096 but that gave no further clues. On the client-/NRPE-side it appears as if the NRPE-request never arrives at the client. Has anyone seen this kind of behavior or has any idea what might cause this? Thanks Regards, Frank P.S.: Is anyone in charge of the mailinglists pending approval postings?

Re: [Nagios-users] Help:Nagios : NDOUTILS:Postgresql :
I don't know why ndoutils is in beta, but it has been for a long time -- the most current version has been out for almost a year. I think it's in fairly wide use, and a lot of other addons depend on it. I sent out a similar email myself before installing it and received several responses from others using the software. It hasn't given me any problems. PostgresQL need not be installed. I don't know if aptitude will insist on it as a dependency, but you don't need it. Looks like you are trying to install it with Postgres support though -- there's probably a flag you want to turn off so that it doesn't try to do that. Good luck!

[Nagios-users] NSCP (CheckFileSize) strips backslashes from file paths
Hello,
I would like to monitor a Windows server on our network. Before installing
anything on that machine, however, I thought I'd test NSCP (aka NSClient++)
on my laptop (Windows XP Professional, SP2). I am getting some very weird
results.
The following service is defined on the Nagios server in my services.cfg
file:
define service{
host_name frank
service_description Outlook PST
check_commandcheck_nrpe!check_pst_size
useserviceTemplate
}
On my Windows machine, I've added this command to the NSC.ini file:
check_pst_size=inject CheckFileSize ShowAll MaxWarn=50K MaxCrit=75K
File:PST=c:\\dell\DELLCIRC.ICO
When I start NSClient++.exe from the DOS command line using the /test
flag, I can watch everything as it happens (everything is logged to the
screen). The prompt asks me to Enter command to inject or exit to
terminate..., and when I enter check_pst_size, I get exactly what I
expect. However, when I ask Nagios to perform the check, the slashes get
stripped. In the /test output, I see:
Injecting: CheckFileSize: ShowAll, MaxWarn=50K, MaxCrit=75K,
File:PST=c:dellDELLCIRC.ICO
... instead of what I normally get, which is:
Injecting: CheckFileSize: ShowAll, MaxWarn=50K, MaxCrit=75K,
File:PST=c:\\dell\DELLCIRC.ICO
I don't understand what's different, since in both cases check_pst_size is
defined on the client machine, and NRPE's only job is basically to tell the
client which command to run. And here's another thing: when I allow Nagios
to do its scheduled check, the backslashes get stripped and the returned
file size is 0. However, if I get on the Nagios server's CLI and type
/usr/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 10.128.128.16 -c check_pst_size, I get
the correct results.
Nagios is 2.11 on Gentoo. NSCP is 0.3.1.
Any ideas? I'm not sure what to do next...
Thanks!

Re: [Nagios-users] Error: Could not read object configuration data!
I'm by no means an expert -- just taking shots in the dark here, but... Can you run checks from the command line? If so, it suggests a problem specific to the CGI. If not, it would seem the problem is with Nagios per se.

[Nagios-users] NDO and round robin
Hi, Is anyone using a round robin database with the NDO2DB plugin? I've seen tools that create an RRD from the Nagios log files, but what I'd like to do is have the NDO database kept under control, not the log files. In other words, if left unchecked, the NDO database can grow to be pretty huge. After looking at what's out there, I thought about just setting up some cron jobs to manage the data... but I thought I'd check in with the list first to see if I'd missed anything.

The installation of NRPE I was running (2.10) was emerged in Gentoo, and the default config file comes with allowed_hosts set to 127.0.0.1. Once I changed that, all sorts of handshaking ensued.

Re: [Nagios-users] Remote external commands
Sorry to revive an old thread, but I started thinking about this too and
remembered seeing it come across the list, so I dug it up.
Mark, did you ever find a solution to your problem? Have you tried using
check_by_ssh (http://nagiosplugins.org/man/check_by_ssh)? I haven't looked
at it in depth, but it looks like you can use it to call any command on the
remote server... so if, for example, you wanted to turn off service
notifications for a host remotely, I think you could do something like this
from your central monitoring server:
define command {
command_namesilence_host
command_line $USER1$/check_by_ssh -H $ARG1$ -C 'printf [%lu]
DISABLE_HOST_SVC_NOTIFICATIONS;$ARG2$\n `date +%s`'
/var/nagios/rw/nagios.cmd
}
... where $ARG1$ is the IP address of the distributed monitoring server for
the cluster in which the host resides, and $ARG2$ is the host_name of the
server you want to silence.
I haven't tried or tested this, but I guess this is where I would start.
What do you think? Did you find another way?

Does anyone know of a tool to run external commands from a remote

I recently experienced something similar. The reason for it is that the plugin option to discard old data was disabled, and my servicechecks table grew to a size that MySQL didn't like.

[Nagios-users] monitoring a remote site and the resulting huge config files
Hello,
I am working with one installation of Nagios (v. 2.11) to monitor two
sites. Let's call them Dev and Prod.
Nagios is in Prod, which has an external IP address of 22.22.22.22. Dev's
external IP is 11.11.11.11. The previous administrator defined each host in
Dev with this IP address, and then in the service check definitions used
check_nrpe with a port number (e.g., check_nrpe!5678) to navigate
firewall/routing rules and deliver the check to the appropriate host.
I see two drawbacks to this method. First, it makes my config files huge.
If I want to define a service for three hosts in Dev, I can no longer do
this:
define service{
host_name host1,host2,host3
service_description disk usage
check_command check_nrpe!check_disk
useserviceTemplate
}
Instead, I have to do this:
define service{
host_name host1
service_description disk usage
check_command check_nrpe!5678!check_disk
useserviceTemplate
}
define service{
host_name host2
service_description disk usage
check_command check_nrpe!6789!check_disk
useserviceTemplate
}
define service{
host_name host3
service_description disk usage
check_command check_nrpe!4567!check_disk
useserviceTemplate
}
The second drawback is that the host-alive-check (which I believe uses
check_ping) won't tell me much if the hosts are all defined with the same IP
address. They are either all going to be up or all going to be down. I
tried adding the port to the IP address in the host definitions -- see
example below -- but that didn't work:
define host{
host_name host1
alias host1
address 11.11.11.11.:5678
use hostTemplate
}
Does anyone have any suggestions for dealing with this kind of setup?
Thanks very much,
-Frank

[Nagios-users] check_oracle does not work
Hello,
I was trying t monitor check_oracle plug in via nrpe daemon and
unsuccessful. I had a problem of No TNS listener message on my nagios
console. Now I am trying to monitor without the nrpe deamon. just simply
using nagios plug in check_oracle
commands.cfg has,
define command{
command_name check_oracle
command_line $USER1$/check_oracle $ARG1$ $ARG2$
}
services.cfg has,
define service{

}
oracle server is runnng on somemachine3 with the SID playdb1. If I log
into remote machine and execute,
[EMAIL PROTECTED] libexec]$ ./check_oracle --db playdb1
playdb1 OK - 1 PMON process(es) running
but from nagios machine,
[EMAIL PROTECTED] libexec]$ ./check_oracle --db playdb1
playdb1 Database is DOWN
[EMAIL PROTECTED] libexec]$ ./check_oracle --tns playdb1
Cannot determine ORACLE_HOME for sid playdb1
I have set the proper ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID , PATH variable both on
nagios and remote machine well. I aslo enter paramters into tnsnames.ora
on remote machine (where oracle is running) for nagios user.
But the problem still persists,
can you someone please help in this?
Thanks

[Nagios-users] is there a maximum length for performance data?
Hello,
I'm using Nagios 2.10 and the ndo2db add-on in a Gentoo environment, and I'm
running into problems with the check_disk command, which I'm executing via
NRPE. I suspect I may actually be hitting a limitation of the ndo2db
add-on, though...
In the Nagios config file for server1, I have:
define service{
host_name server2,server1,server3
service_description disk usage
check_command check_nrpe!check_disk
use serviceTemplate
}
In the NRPE config file on server2, I have:
command[check_disk]=/usr/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 40% -c 20%
In the database, the nagios_servicechecks table shows truncated perfdata for
checks on server2.
The output field is intact:
DISK CRITICAL - free space: / 3806 MB (16% inode=93%): /dev 1005 MB (100%
inode=98%): /home 85167 MB (77% inode=99%): /usr/portage 85167 MB (77%
inode=99%): /dev/shm 1005 MB (100% inode=100%):
However, the perfdata field is truncated:
/=19666MB;14082;18776;93;23471 /dev=0MB;602;803;97;1004
/home=25220MB;66232;88309;98;110387
/usr/portage=25220MB;66232;88309;98;110387 /
The database is set up to allow 255 characters for the perfdata field --
the above, truncated value is only 136 characters long.
When I run the following command from server1's CLI, I get what I expect,
without truncation:
CLI:
/usr/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H dev -c check_disk
Result:
DISK CRITICAL - free space: / 3804 MB (16% inode=93%); /dev 1005 MB (100%
inode=98%); /home 85167 MB (77% inode=99%); /usr/portage 85167 MB (77%
inode=99%); /dev/shm 1005 MB (100% inode=100%);|
/=19667MB;14082;18776;93;23471 /dev=0MB;602;803;97;1004
/home=25220MB;66232;88309;98;110387
/usr/portage=25220MB;66232;88309;98;110387 /dev/shm=0MB;602;803;99;1004
The CLI result is 357 characters long. If you truncate it where the
truncation occurs in the database, you end up with a string exactly 330
characters long. I wonder if that is some sort of magic number for the
ndo2db add-on. I suspect that there isn't any such limitation in the
check_disk or check_nrpe commands themselves, since the full output is
displayed when called from the command line.
I hope I didn't supply so much detail that nobody bothers to read this! Has
anyone experienced something similar?

Re: [Nagios-users] is there a maximum length for performance data?
I confirmed this 330 character limit on another server.
However, I'm trying to determine whether the limit is being imposed by the
ndo2db add-on or someplace else -- not that it matters, I guess... I'll
probably just work around the limitation. I noticed that the perfdata is
also truncated in this file: /var/nagios/status.log. I'm not sure where
Nagios logs data though...
Anyone?
Thanks!

Re: [Nagios-users] is there a maximum length for performance data?
I didn't see much info out there about a limit, but I did find this link,
which (along with my findings in the status.log file) leads me to believe
that the 330 character limit is imposed by Nagios per se, rather than the
ndo2db add-on: http://tinyurl.com/4lpeog. I guess I'll be writing a less
verbose check_disk plugin now...

Re: [Nagios-users] high check latency, slow update of config on web interface
If you're restarting Nagios through the web interface (rather than on the command line), I think I can help you. My understanding is that restarting Nagios through the web interface is done as an external commandhttp://www.nagios.org/developerinfo/externalcommands/commandlist.php. The web interface sends commands to the command_file (set in your nagios.cfg file), but Nagios only checks the command_file periodically. I think the default interval is 15 minutes. Below are the relevant settings I have in my nagios.cfg file, plus a hyperlink I think you may find useful. check_external_commands=1 command_check_intervalhttp://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/configmain.html#command_check_interval =1 command_file=/var/nagios/rw/nagios.cmd Changing this interval will also affect how quickly other external commands (such as en/disabling notifications) respond to the web interface.

The version of nagios you are using would be critical information. In nagios 2.x, active host checks are run in serial, not in parallel and are highly discouraged because they introduce significant latencies. In 3.x, they've been made to run in parallel. I'm guessing you're using 2.x. Nagios is primarily a service monitoring application and is designed to monitor services. Host monitoring is typically only done on an as-needed basis. Another problem is that after i update my config file, verify and restart nagios, it takes 15 mins for the web interface to register the change. Are you using ndoutils? With that few hosts and services the change should be immediate. Do you see that your objects cache file contains the new information? Do you have multiple nagios daemons running at the same time? Are the 2 problems linked? Not in any way that I've ever seen. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.

Re: [Nagios-users] ndo2db -- lots of empty tables

Re: [Nagios-users] ndo2db -- lots of empty tables
Thank you, Duncan. This is very useful documentation. The tables make so much more sense now! I made some changes to the configuration files and got the desired results, but I don't really understand the configuration options and I'd like to. I hope you'll bear with me for a bit longer. I changed config_output_options in the ndomod.cfg file from 2 to 1. When I restarted Nagios, I found the config tables had been populated. (Victory!) The available options are: # CONFIG OUTPUT OPTION # This option determines what types of configuration data the NDO # NEB module will dump from Nagios. Values can be OR'ed together. # Values: # 0 = Don't dump any configuration information # 1 = Dump only original config (from config files) # 2 = Dump config only after retained information has been restored # 3 = Dump both original and retained configuration I guess I don't understand what is meant by retained information, nor where it is being restored from. For that matter, I don't know what it means to OR values together... Can someone explain what these options mean? In case it helps anyone else, my data_processing_options (same file) is set to -1. I didn't have to change this. Thanks, -Frank On Thu, Apr 10, 2008 at 2:30 PM, Duncan Ferguson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On 10 Apr 2008, at 16:52, Frank J.

Re: [Nagios-users] ndo2db -- lots of empty tables
Hello again. So I've got the ndo2db module installed and working, but now I have some questions. The results of my service checks are being logged to the nagios_servicechecks table, which is very cool. However, I have a bunch of tables in the nagios database which are not populated. I won't list them all, but I'm most interested in nagios_hosts and nagios_services. What's interesting is that hosts and services seem to be stored together in the nagios_objects table. Hosts are stored with an objecttype_id of 1, with the hostname stored in name1. Services are stored with an objecttype_id of 2, with the hostname stored in name1 and the command stored in name2. Also worth noting is that the nagios_servicechecks table never refers to columns from the nagios_hosts and nagios_services; instead it refers to the object ids. So I guess those are mostly observations, not questions... Some questions then: - Did I do something wrong/different during the install process, or are these tables empty by default for everyone else? - Say I want to monitor a new host, should I edit my config files as in the past or add the information to the database? If I add it to the database, should I use the nagios_objects table or mess with the nagios_hosts and nagios_services tables? - Does anyone know what all of the objecttype_id codes mean? So far I have 1 (hosts), 2 (services), 9, 10, and 12. - Why are those tables there if they are not being used? I may think of more questions later; these are the ones that immediately popped into my head. Thanks, -Frank PS: I have not seen much documentation about ndo2db.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios from address change
Thanks Chris !!
I actually managed to do what I needed using genericstables in sendmail,
but this is a much more elegant solution. I like it, and I think I'll
implement it here.
Thanks again!

Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios from address change
Hi,
My apologies in advance if this question has been hashed out here
before. I have a request from management to change the from address
in Nagios alerts. In other words, notifications come from nagios@, my
boss would like to see it be something different, as in
WhateverAlerts@. I've tried playing with genericstable in sendmail,
and have been unsuccessful. Is there another way to do this?
We do:
define command{
command_namenotify-by-email
command_line/usr/bin/printf %b * Nagios
*\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService:
$SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTALIAS$\nState: $SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time:
$LONGDATETIME$\n\nAdditional Info:
\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$ | /usr/bin/mail -a From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] -a Return-Path:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] -a List-Id: Nagios
nagios.uni-paderborn.de -s [Nagios] **$SERVICEDESC$ at $HOSTALIAS$
($NOTIFICATIONTYPE$) ** $CONTACTEMAIL$
}
So /usr/bin/mail allows you to add additional headers, like From
or List-Id.

[Nagios-users] Monitoring a remote host via nrpe
Hi all, We have a filtered WAN network. There is a file transfert between a server A on our LAN network and a server B on a remote network. I want to monitor this transfert by Nagios. I've installed NSClient++ vers. 2.7 on my server A. The nagios client is configured for NRPE. Some of existents command work fine, another not. For testing communication, i've created a small file that realize a ping between these 2 machines. It works well on hand direct from the server. When I test it through my Nagios server via check_nrpe, i have this message : NRPE_NT failed to create process, exiting I've search on my windows server, but there is no other message. Questions : 1/ have you got test this ? 2/ How shall you do it with NRPE or not ? Any suggest would be helpfull ! Thanks !

Are they documented anywhere? Thanks \\Greg They're documented in Wolfgang Barth's book Nagios published by No Starch Press. Cheers, Jim http://web.they.org/software/picker.txt Using the Nagios book as a guide I wrote a simple little picker that lets you choose what to display based on the service properties such as alerts active/silenced, active checks enabled/disabled... This is by no means a complete description of all available args to status.cgi but I think it's a good start. Drop it into your cgi-bin and chmod 755 (probably rename to picker.cgi as well). You may need to edit the redirect line to suit your Nagios environment. It assumes you're installed at /nagios/cgi-bin/. I added a link in my side.html to make accessing it easier. Please don't contact me if you need more help deploying it. If that's the case you probably shouldn't be the primary contact for your monitoring systems.

Re: [Nagios-users] Bug in check_disk when using mount points?
(Please pardon my top-posting) The first problem is that the --help listing has a typo. Mount points are checked with '-M', megabytes are checked with '-m', but both are listed in lowercase when you use --help. The second problem appears to be in the reporting of command line errors. Try putting your mount point after your -w and/or -c flags. In older version of the plugin it would complain when you left out either the -w or -c. Now it just reports (signed) 2^32 (if my mental math is right) in the performance data: # ./check_disk -M -w 10% /home DISK WARNING - free space: /dev/hda3 5904 MB (8% inode=95%);| /dev/hda3=63902MB;66188;-2147483648;0;73543 So yes, there are some issues in the plugin that deserve fixing, but it does work properly when given instructions in the correct order. -f On Wed, 14 Feb 2007, Hari Sekhon wrote: OK it's not just a bug with the -m switch but with the whole plugin.

Hi List,

(dialog based maybe?)
I have a situation were I don't have other than ssh access

Failing that, any ideas?
Is there a published API for the frontend?
Any thoughts appreciated.

/Lars
Other people have mentioned console tools so I won't bother.
But did you know that with ssh access you have access to every port on the
remote machine?
SSH(1)
-L [bind_address:]port:host:hostport
Specifies that the given port on the local (client) host is to be
forwarded to the given host and port on the remote side. This
works by allocating a socket to listen to port on the local side,
optionally bound to the specified bind_address. Whenever a con-
nection is made to this port, the connection is forwarded over
the secure channel, and a connection is made to host port
hostport from the remote machine.
ssh -L 8080:localhost:80 your-nagios-box
http://localhost:8080/
So here you're hitting port 8080 on your desktop machine and the packets
are getting sent over your SSH connection to the HTTP port on the nagios
server.
If the HTTP server on the nagios box isn't bound to localhost you'll have
to specify (in the ssh command) the hostname or IP that it is bound to.
('netstat -tnl | grep :80' can help you find out)
Windows ssh clients such as PuTTY can also do port forwarding.

Re: [Nagios-users] Schedule Downtime w/o authentication requirement
No, you didn't. The last link under Configuring Nagios in the documentation table of contents clearly says Configuring authorization for the CGIs. Read it! http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/cgiauth.html Authentication On Secured Web Servers If your web server is located in a secure domain (i.e., behind a firewall) or if you are using SSL, you can define a default username that can be used to access the CGIs. This is done by defining the default_user_name option in the CGI configuration file. By defining a default username that can access the CGIs, you can allow users to access the CGIs without necessarily having to authenticate to the web server.. You may want to use this to avoid having to use basic web authentication, as basic authentication transmits passwords in clear text over the Internet. Important: Do not define a default username unless you are running a secure web server and are sure that everyone who has access to the CGIs has been authenticated in some manner! If you define this variable, anyone who has not authenticated to the web server will inherit all rights you assign to this user! -f On Tue, 19 Dec 2006, Subin Shakya wrote: Date: Tue, 19 Dec 2006 10:30:06 -0800 From: Subin Shakya [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Andreas Ericsson [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Schedule Downtime w/o authentication requirement Andreas, Thanks for your advice.

Ben -f I'm sorry, I misread part of your post. To me, recompile the plugins meant re-run make and make install, not install the new version. We were both saying the same thing. I wonder if this fact needs a FAQ because the fix was non-obvious to me. I spent far too much time running straces and the like. But I didn't bother to read the C code. -f On 11/29/06, Hari Sekhon [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: check that your filesystem isn't full, this happened to me recently, an incentive to add a filesystem space check which I did! oh yeah, and silly but obvious, check your nagios is running... -h Hari Sekhon Terry wrote: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# date Wed Nov 29 10:03:49 CST 2006 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# ls -l /var/log/nagios/status.dat -rw-rw-r-- 1 nagios nagios 155812 Nov 29 10:03 /var/log/nagios/status.dat [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nagios -e 5 -F /var/log/nagios/status.dat -C /usr/bin/nagios Nagios problem: located 1 process, status log updated 1164816202 seconds ago Any ideas? - Take Surveys.

While I'm sure that the U.C. Davis (that's who 2021 belongs to)

it's a better idea to register your _own_ subtree. That way you can
be absolutely sure that you're not messing things up by using OIDs

Actually, why don't you check through the following list to see if

Dude, chill.
Also, your statement about the exec command is false. The results
from the script will not fall under 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.8 per default.
They only will do so if you tell the daemon to do that, through
snmpd.conf. It's just that the net-SNMP people have used the 2021
range for their _examples_.
Admittedly, the chance of something going wrong by you using someone
else's SNMP subtree are slim to none. But I'm always in favor of the
most elegant option, if there's a choice.

It's _everyone's_ subtree. As the MIB says, it's defined in the agent's
own snmpd.conf file so it belongs to whoever is writing that file! Perhaps
UCD is writing _your_ config files, I write my own.

Re: [Nagios-users] nsca/services issue
I'm not absolutely positive, but I think you just need to change your
test file so it says syslog-ng instead of nmbd. It's possible to
send passive checks (via nsca or whatever other methods one may employ)
for _any_ host or service you can imagine, but Nagios will log and ignore
every one of them unless they're properly defined in your Nagios config
files.
From http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/passivechecks.html
Note that in order to submit service checks to Nagios, a service must have
already been defined in the object configuration file! Nagios will ignore
all check results for services that had not been configured before it was
last (re)started.

With that said...how can I can I test this in this manner?

Sorry for top-posting but my point would get lost in the mix.
Pardon me if I'm wrong here, but it looks like you have a service defined
for syslog-ng, yet the status that you're sending thru nsca is for _nmbd_.
nmbd != syslog-ng, therefore no change to nagios display.
Did I miss something?

Subject: [Nagios-users] nsca/services issue
I have a question about nsca and service checks. I am running nsca 2.6 and
Nagios 2.5. I have just trying to send a simple test service check to Nagios to
see if I can get the state to change
and it isnt working
Here is what I am trying to do
From the remote machine:
/usr/bin/send_nsca H ian -d ; c /etc/send_nagios.cfg test
The file test contains:
mike;nmbd;2;ok-just one test
I have configured nsca on the Nagios server and the config file contains:
server_port=5667
server_address=192.168.1.10
nsca_user=nagios
nsca_group=nagios
debug=0
command_file=/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd
alternate_dump_file=/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nsca.dump
aggregate_writes=0
append_to_file=0
max_packet_age=30
password=password
decryption_method=10
The send_nagios.cfg contains:
password=password
encryption_method=10
My service check is:
define service{
host_name mike
service_description syslog-ng
active_checks_enabled 0
passive_checks_enabled 1
check_freshness 0
is_volatile 1
max_check_attempts 1
normal_check_interval 1
retry_check_interval 1
check_period none
contact_groups nagios-admins
check_command check_dummy!2!Critical
notification_options w,c,u
notification_period 24x7
notification_interval 120
}
The /var/log/messages file shows the following:
Nov 21 00:09:00 ian nsca[12202]: SERVICE CHECK - Host Name: 'mike', Service
Description: 'nmbd', Return Code: '2', Output: ''ok-just one test''
Nov 21 00:09:47 ian nagios: EXTERNAL COMMAND:
PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT;mike;nmbd;2;'ok-just one test'
It appears that the external command file is getting the check
but the host page just
sits there saying that the host hasnt been checked. I have tried several different
states and still the same result. I understand that an active check isnt being performed
but I would think that because of the above PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT line
that the nagios.cmd file got the message and the page should be updated with a critical
message.
I read in the docs that the check needs to have the date in front of it
but
when I tried that I couldnt get nsca to expand the variable
I have checked
permissions, etc.
So
where have I messed up? LOL.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Ok, I am not (really not) a Perl Expert. I am simply trying to get
out some values from ngraph.log to display free space on a windows

This is the line that nagios gives me.

graph_legend spazio libero %
rrd_plottype AREA

}
can somebody help me telling the right way to write a valid and fully
functional regex to be able to catch the value (25.33G in this case)
Thanks a lot .
a coffee cup payed :-)
\s*([0-9]*\.[0-9]*)G or -\s*([0-9]*\.[0-9]*)G
Btw, this stupid pseudo regex has nearly nothing to do with perl ;)
Another suggestion, each time you have modified your ngraph.ncfg
file. Verify that there are no unprintable chars (vi :set list) like
blanks or tabs

Re: [Nagios-users] checking a counter on a website
This actually hits on what I consider to be one of Nagios' (few) weaknesses. A lot of time, when I do my checks, I'm not nearly as interested in the value of a check as in the change in the value since the last check. This isa goodexample. Another itemI monitor is changes in the SNMP Interface error counters. For example, if I get more than 5 errors/second, I need to send out an alert. Finally, I have the same issue monitoring SNMP Interface statuses. But, Nagios has no feature to remember data between invocations of the checks. So, I end up storing this data in temporary files.If there was a facility to provide some information back to Nagios, and retrieve it on the next one, that would be wonderful.

Re: [Nagios-users] check_mailq
I've edited the sudoers file using visudo and appended this information - it doesn't seem to have made a difference though, unfortunately. Perhaps this plugin will not work the way I'm trying to use it? I'm guessing that this plugin is designed to run on the mail server itself which is running nagios /and/ qmail? An SMTP service for instance is easy to monitor remotely because you can just attempt an SMTP connection to test. Checking the mail queue remotely is maybe not possible?

[Nagios-users] (No output!) Nagios 2.5
Hello all,
I first sent this to the plugins mailing list but I think
this has more to do with Nagios core since I am now having the problem with two
different plug-ins. They both give me correct output when I run the checks
manually but Nagios consistently gives me a result of (No output!). The check
below always had a Critical level for the No Output but another check that I am
doing gives a Warning level. How can there be two different results from having
(No output!). I do not see any errors in any of my log files.
Below is the information from my previous email.
I am trying get check_snmp_win.pl to work. I am able to run
the exact command that Nagios is running without any problems and I get output,
but when I run the check though Nagios it says No output! I am
able to run other checks without any problems.
I see at http://www.manubulon.com/nagios/faq.html#FAQ8
that there is a problem with the embedded perl in Nagios so I make sure that I ran
the script using another version of perl. I am unable to find the p1.pl file it
is talking about patching.
# 'check_win_proc_snmp'
define command{
command_name
check_win_proc_snmp
command_line
/opt/ActivePerl-5.8/bin/perl /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp_win.pl -H
HOST -C COMMUNITY -p PORT -n SERVICE_TO_CHECK -N 1
}
I have also tried using /usr/local/bin/perl and there has been no
change. I am able to run the check manually without any problems but
cant run it though Nagios.
Any help you can give will be great.
Thanks,
Michael
