Re: [Nagios-users] How to monitor using custom scripts in nagios.

If the implication there is that veteran nagios users don't need to keep configs under source control, then I disagree :-) On Thu, Mar 5, 2009 at 8:00 PM, Anthony Montibello wrote: > Many users assume that people aready are familiar with the little steps, > > I agree that it is nice to see some r

[Nagios-users] Can Nagios implement with Expect to automate tasks when issues arise?

2007-11-14 Thread Patrick M.
Hi all, I just learned what Expect was and wrote a few scripts to automate certain tasks around the office, and now I'm wondering if Expect can be used in conjunction with Nagios. Is this possible? Example: One of our servers go down at least twice a day, and we know it's problematic. We co

[Nagios-users] How to monitor temp on Cisco 7200's?

2007-10-31 Thread Patrick M.
Hi all, I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations on what plugins to use to check temperature for a Cisco 7200 router. If possible I'd like to monitor temp on our other devices like our 3560 Catalyst switches as well as our 3550's. I tried looking on NagiosExchange but the plugins I f

2007-10-02 Thread Patrick M.
Hi all, I went to Nagios Exchange and downloaded the tsm checks so I can use them on our Tivoli Storage Manager server via NRPE. I'm running into an issue here, as I think the script wasn't intended to be used on any other host than localhost. The reason I say this is because it appears when

[Nagios-users] Critical Plugin Timed Out

Hi all, I've been running Nagios 2.6 for about 6 months now, and every now and then we get critical pages about a machine being down, or at least Nagios can't connect to it. It causes the CEO to freak out and believe something is up with our network. To me, it seems like the box is getting st

I have several hosts with no associated services, and their status bars are stuck on "PENDING" in the Host Detail cgi. check_command on them is set to check-host-alive, and checks_enabled is set to 1. What am I doing wrong, why aren't the hosts being checked? -
