Heya all.
With the Daylight savings time change changing this year in the US,
management is going through a y2k style check of all our applications to
make sure that they wont have any issues when DST occurs in the middle
of march rather then the end.
I think that Nagios stores all its date info
I have a script that loads in the status and comments.dat file, and
looks for any services that are OK, that have acknowlege comments
associated with them, and the give the option to delete.
I don't consider this ready for prime time, so I havent thought about
putting it up on nagios exchange yet.
Heya
I am running Nagios with snmptraps being caught in the usual
passive/volitile check method.
The big downside with this setup is that those traps will never clear. I
have to manually submit a passive check to clear them, which is
annoying.
So I want to build an active check that I can use t

One thing to watch is that HOST alerts will get sent
out as soon as the host is detected down. You can play with the retry settings.
But you generally need to keep those short, as a host check supercedes all other
checks, and nagios will essentially pause until it determines status of the

Heya
Running Nagios 2.0b6.
I have a service check that runs fine most of the time, but occasionally (about once a day) the check takes too long to run, and hits the Service check timeout limit.
It appears that hitting this limit is tr
Escalations are based entirely on alert received/processed by nagios,
not on time.
For active checks, the time factors control how often the service is
checked, and therefore how often an alert is sent to nagios.
For passive checks, this obviously doesn't hold.
If you want to get around this, yo
Depends on what you are trying to accomplish. The syntax is fine assuming
nagios isnt complaining about it. What problem are you seeing?

Title: Check_http with size and regex conditions ignoring size check.
I want to check a web page, and check both for a regex and for a minimum size.
However, it appears that the regex requirement overides the size. Eg. (names changes to protect the innocent)
check_http (nagios-plugins 1.4.1)
There is a documentation error. You have to use real regex. A naked * by
itself is not a valid regex.
Try .*

Title: What did we recover from?
Is there some macro that we can use when a recovery alert was sent out to indicate what we recovered from? I.E. Warning, or Critical?
I am writing my own notification module, since the notification and escalation rules that nagios provides don't meet my needs.
Bringing it back to the list

I had a similar problem with passive checks and freshness
checking when I upgraded to 2.0. I am guessing (though no one ever responded
when I asked the list before) That they changed the logic. Before a stale check
would trigger an active check in all cases regardless of the check period. Now
?
