any way we can monitor for collisions and errors on host interfaces

Hi
Does anyone know if there is a plugin that can monitor UDP statistics
and then warn when thresholds are met.
ie more than x UDP packets seen on a port then warn? Or something similar?
thanks

Opening a raw socket and continuously issuing
recv(sd, hdr, sizeof(hdr), MSG_PEEK)

It's not difficult, just pretty bloody useless most of the time.
It's nearly always better to just rate-limit the traffic from the
start
The last time I asked the list about this, there was very little

Hi
We have a, badly written, app that runs python and it regularly pins 1
core to 100% cpu utilization. The utilization may drop for a short
period but then get pinned again. Is there any check out there that can
check for a process consuming 100% of a core, even if overall CPU load
is low
If the server running the app is a windows app, install nsclient and
you will be able to monitor the cpu
thanks - nope server running the app is a linux box
thanks for any suggestions

Hi
I have recently started deploying bonding throughout our estate and i
interested in monitoring the bonded interface - I can see the status of
the bond in /proc/net/bonding but i wonder if anyone has already written
a plugin to test this. I have looked on nagios exchange and google but
not
it's no problem to get the status of the bonding interace via snmp.
(i have an Intel Dual Server Adapter):
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.7.5 = INTEGER: up(1)
The only one you need is the correct oid.
so you can check via check_snmp.

I monitor my HP stuff using check_hparray and check_hpasm, generally
things work OK
However i have noticed that 1 box keeps alerting that the chassis is not

Does anyone know of a workaround to this apart from perhaps
Yes. I could be going down the wrong path but, how does the Nagios
install know what the document root of the webserver is? It would seem
to me that there should be some reference to nagios in the document
root so the webserver know where to direct the requests, or does
nagios not work

You're not dumb... it's my script that's forcing you to use -v 2c.
Just switch it over to -v 1 and you should be fine.
I really should make that a config parameter at the top of the

I would like to send out notifications via modem (to a pager) but I’m
concerned about multiple notifications being sent out and the modem not
keeping up. Is anyone using a system such as this??
Yes - we send out using qpage and it works fine for multiple messages
Tom, thanks for the quick response. I wonder..how many notifications get
buffered up? There are times when will see up to 100 notifications,
basically because of the network setup.
well we have had the odd major issue where many 10's of alerts are
buffered. Basically nagios send the message
Yes, the nagios.cmd file is automatically created when I start
nagios. The file does have read and write permissions for the nagcmd
group, and I have added the webserver to said group.
have you restarted the webserver? Also note the // in the path
Tarball or RPM?
rpm -qa | grep nagios
If present then i assume you are using RPM as the install therefore yum
update nagios
If you are using tarball then personally i would configure and install
into a new dir and then copy required files over and then startup.
Using Tomcat but need to do
ERROR 1050 at line 19: Table 'command' already exists
Does anyone have a solution to this error?
are you sure your db is empty? Connect as the user you are running the
sql as and see if there are any tables. If there are and you REALLY dont
need them just remove the tables and start again.
restart apache?
The CGI's don't use PHP.
OP: Try adding /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf and run 'ldconfig'.
