You need to examine your notification commands.  You may have used
some third party software to send SMS messages, and that may not
be installed on the new system.  Also, your email configuration
may not be the same or may be incomplete on the new system.

On a Debian system, you can capture all system packages and settings
like so:

apt-get debconf-utils
debconf-get-selections > debian_config
dpkg  --get-selections > packages

Import into second system like so:

debconf-set-selections < debian_config
dpkg  --set-selections < packages

If you've made settings changes to text files not controlled by
debconf, you need to capture them manually and merge them manually.
This is easy if you're doing configuration management on your config
files.  For example, if you use RCS, you can run "locate ,v" to
quickly locate every configuration file you've ever changed.  If you
weren't using a CM system before, you'll have to locate your config
files manually.  Be sure to use CM in the future.

I would *not* grab /usr/share/nagios or /usr/share/nagios3.  That
stuff is version specific.  You've just overwritten some nagios 3.2.x
files with nagios 3.0.x files.

The stuff I transfer on a Debian nagios is:

dirs="/etc/nagios3"
files="/var/lib/nagios3/retention.dat /var/www/index.html"

You may also want to grab /var/log/nagios3 if you want the old
history.

That's most likely due to system settings and probably has nothing to do
with Nagios. I assumed you understood that the new system has to be
capable of sending emails and text messages as well if you want that
functionality to work.

Backup done successfully. All hosts are imported and being monitored, but a
few things are not working, like SMS messages and mail messages.

Does it need to be backed up from some directory?

 rsync. Nothing important's changed in object config, and the rest will
 just be simple and quick manual tweaking of nagios.cfg, if any at all.

Re: [Nagios-users] nagios backup

2012-05-11 Thread Luis H. Forchesatto
Correct me if i'm wrong.

The basic nagios backup and restore procedure is:

- stop the nagios daemon
- copy the contents of /etc/nagios3/, /usr/share/nagios/,
/usr/share/nagios3/ to the same directory in the new server
- before running, aptitude install nagios-plugins
- start the nagios daemon

Enjoy the happy end?

The important information is that the config files will be compatible so
you have a thousand ways to copy the files from A to B.
Just make sure that the nagios user has the correct permissions on the
files (thats why Andreas suggested rsync I'd say).

You can , but rsync will give you a better control and recovery if 
something goes wrong , it also allows you to make sure it does not eat

You will have to recompile the Nagios plugins as you change the
architecture.
But with the configuration files you don't have to worry much - rsync or

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios backup

2007-10-18 Thread Cook, Garry
You can use the 'archive' commands in recent IOS to have your config backed up 
to a TFTP server anytime the config is written to NVRAM, as well as at 
specified time intervals.

Thanks,

I think TFTP is closer to what you need to do.

Try TFTP server (there's a free Cisco client on www.oldversion.com) on a
workstation and then type (something like) "copy starting-config tftp"
or "write network" (on older routers this works).

Nagios could help you determine when your Cisco device was down, and then
you could use the copy command ("copy tftp starting-config") to get back an
old config.

Thanks Roger, I was looking at something that would perform backups when the
config changes automatically.

I think TFTP is closer to what you need to do.

Try TFTP server (there's a free Cisco client on www.oldversion.com) on a
workstation and then type (something like) "copy starting-config tftp" 
or "write network" (on older routers this works).

Nagios could help you determine when your Cisco device was down, and then
you could use the copy command ("copy tftp starting-config") to get back an
old config.

Sounds as usefull as slamming a nail into the wall with a screwdriver.

Nagios is simply not the tool for that kind of a job.
