Re: [Nagios-users] Distributed config admin tool?
The part of my post that was snipped out showed how to use a single host and service definition but put in place *only* a different template for the central and distributed Nagios instances. The ease of distribution comes for free at that point, and nothing is used here beyond the basic built-in features of Nagios. How you distribute it from there is up to you, I just happen to use cfengine.

Re: [Nagios-users] Distributed config admin tool?
Thanks, Marc that's great info. I forgot about the power of templating. It's nice to see some real-world examples on how this is being done. Sometimes it makes more sense to just see it rather than to over-think it.

All good answers, but not really what I was looking for.

All you need is a single host and service template on the active and a different host and service template on the passive. These templates will have the same name on both machines, but different contents depending on their roles. For example, a generic-service template on the active might look like -- define service { name generic-service check_period 24x7 register 0 } On the passive, that would turn into -- define service { name generic-service check_period none register 0 } Now, in your distributed configs, you just need to specify inheritance of the generic-service template and it'll do the right thing based on the machine it's running on -- define service { usegeneric-service host_name whatever service_descriptionsomeservice contact_groups somecontacts check_command somecommand ... } I have all my templates in one directory that is static per machine and my host/service/hostgroup configs in another that's dynamic and rsynced from a central machine. The contents of this directory are the same across all my nagios instances. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems? Stop.

Re: [Nagios-users] Distributed config admin tool?
Thanks, but most of these answers seem to be based around distributing the configs. All good answers, but not really what I was looking for. I am more interested in how to GENerate the configs (ie: adding hosts, services etc) for a distributed setup, without having to add things twice (once on master as passive, then again on distributed as active, yadda yadda) We currently have an in-house tool that we use to manage the master config but it was written years ago (back when there were none) and does not have this capability. Since we are planning to break up our monolithic Nagios cluster into distributed sites, we wanted to evaluate any config tools that already have this capability to see if they are worth using versus spending time retrofitting ours. So far, it seems OpsView has the features to support this, but migrating may be a bit of a chore. I will be installing it so I can at least take a peek under the hood for some ideas.

Re: [Nagios-users] Distributed config admin tool?
I use cfengine, and have it down to where I can setup a new Nagios instance or setup a failed Nagios instance in minutes. I have a single Nagios filesystem hierarchy that helps ensure that the central and distributed services and host definitions are exactly the same - using symlinks. $ pwd /var/cfengine/masterfiles/usr/pkg/nagios/etc $ ls -l sites/savvis1/hostgroups/ lrwxr-xr-x 1 ncampi cfengine 46 Aug 6 16:26 hostgroups-ftp.cfg -> ../../../central/hostgroups/hostgroups-ftp.cfg ... $ ls -l sites/savvis2/services/url/ lrwxr-xr-x 1 ncampi cfengine 42 Aug 7 22:09 query.cfg -> ../../../../central/services/url/query.cfg I just make sure that the templates are real files (with different contents, of course) for the central and distributed Nagios instances. $ ls -l sites/savvis1/services/templates/generic.cfg -r--r- 1 ncampi cfengine 3282 Aug 7 14:45 sites/savvis1/services/templates/generic.cfg I use daemontools to start up Nagios using the correct config file, and each nagios.cfg has the right cfg_dir and cfg_file options to assume the role that I want for that host. $ ls -l sites/savvis1/nagios.cfg -r--r- 1 ncampi cfengine 31193 Aug 7 23:26 sites/savvis1/nagios.cfg None of this is original, of course, but along with cfengine it makes it a breeze to manage. If people really care, I could put up a better description of how I did it. On Fri, Aug 31, 2007 at 08:29:18AM +0100, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Yes, I'd second cfengine.

It works amazingly well." We wrote it, so we use it :) We use scp to transfer the files across to slaves. The generated config is different between master and slaves, so separate tarballs are created. There's also a validation phase before we synchronise a reload on all Nagios instances. There's a little publicised feature where you can cluster your slaves together, so at configuration generation time, it will split the hosts between the clustered slaves for load balancing. if there's a failure on one slave, the other slave will take over the active checks.

Re: [Nagios-users] Distributed config admin tool?
Thanks, Bill. We currently use cfengine for other stuff in our environment so I am pretty familiar with it. And while I agree it could probably do the job, it would be quite complex to set up from scratch. We actually already have a homegrown app we use to manage the configs but it will need to be altered significantly to be multi-site aware. I'd like to be able to add a host to the master site and associate it with a remote site, having the tool spit out the config with a passive check on the master and active on the remote server avoiding duplication of effort. Anyone using OpsView? (http://opsview.org/node/10) Sounds like it has this capability: "With Opsview, one of the big features is the simple distributed monitoring - you just select a drop down to associate a host with a slave server and then when you hit the Opsview reload button, all the Nagios configurations are generated as you'd expect (slaves monitoring, master with freshness checking, automatic distribution to slaves, synchronized reloading). It works amazingly well." Looks like i'll be checking out their vm appliance for some ideas.

[Nagios-users] Distributed config admin tool?
Are there any configuration admin tools out there that are multi-site aware to be able to manage a distributed nagios setup (multiple sites/servers)?
