Re: [Nagios-users] Host down due to plugins timing out
I was able to solve the problem. I checked the ip address of the client system in the hosts.cfg file on the Nagios server, and one of the digits in the address was incorrect. Once I corrected the mistake, everything worked fine. Thanks for the help.

[mailto:ahkap...@partners.org] Sent: Thursday, May 13, 2010 1:51 PM To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] Host down due to plugins timing out Hi there -- I recently set up a new client to be monitored by our Nagios 3.1.2 server. The client is running the CentOS 5.4 operating system, and it has version 2.6 of NRPE as well as version 2.12 of the plugins installed on it. I made sure to deactivate the firewall on the system, disable the SELinux option, and also modified the /etc/services file to include port 5666 with udp and tcp. The problem that I am having is that even though everything appears to be running properly, the requests that are sent from the Nagios server to the client are timing out, with the result being the client appearing as down. The client has the nrpe program running with the following configuration: /usr/local/nrpe/bin/nrpe -n -c /usr/local/nrpe/etc/nrpe.cfg -d I verified the plugins are working on the client, and also confirmed there are no other clients being reported as down. The configuration that I described is not unique to this client. This same setup is working for other clients that are monitored by the server. Does anyone have any idea as to why this is occurring, and what I can do to correct it? Thanks. The information in this e-mail is intended only for the person to whom it is addressed.

Re: [Nagios-users] Host down due to plugins timing out
Hi there -- The command_timeout option in the client's nrpe.cfg file is set to 60. The syntax of the line is shown below: command_timeout=60 From: Stier, Matthew [mailto:matthew.st...@us.fujitsu.com] Sent: Thursday, May 13, 2010 3:27 PM To: Nagios Users List Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Host down due to plugins timing out The default timeout for nrpe is 10 seconds.How long does your plugin take to run?
