[Nagios-users-br] hosts.cfg + alias

2008-08-10 Thread Harlei Marcelino
Amigos,
a dúvida é fútil, eu sei, mas está fazendo diferença para os operadores do 
Nagios aqui da empresa. Monitoro aproximadamente 130 links com o Nagios, e 
dentro de cada serviço tem a especificação da LP, ID, Mascara e tal de cada 
link/router só que o alias escreve tudo 'corrido' sem identação. Existe alguma 
forma de identar o texto do alias para ficar por exemplo assim:
LP: -
ID: */**
Mascara: ***.***.***.***
ao invés de ficar como fica normalmente que é assim:
LP: - ID: */** Mascara: ***.***.***.***
agradeço a atenção
Harlei

Re: [Nagios-users-br] Nagios encaminhando e-mail de warning equivocado.

2008-08-10 Thread Marcel
Parece que são duas instâncias nagios rodando. Já vi o nagios endoidecer
assim por causa disso.

pkill -9 nagios
/etc/init.d/nagios stop; ps -fu nagios (garantindo que todos os processos
morreram)
/etc/init.d/nagios start

HTH,
Marcel

 Boa tarde a todos, creio que meu nagios tenha enlouquecido de um dia para o
 outro, alem, de não registrar os historicos, ele agora esta encaminhando
 mais de 1000 mensagens de warning por dia para o meu e-mail, mensagens essas
 que não deveriam ocorrer por que são de check_hd, porem o HD esta mais da
 metade vazio, já foram limpos todos os caches no /var/spool e ele ainda
 continua mandando os e-mail.
 Alguem poderia me dar uma ajuda, por que enquanto isso vou ter que comentar
 os 2 host's que estão disparando essas mensagens. Detalhe que são somente 2
 de mais de 30 que são monitorados.

 Obrigado!

[Nagios-users] Nagios freshness checks randomly think check results are from 1973.

2008-08-10 Thread fevin Kagen
I'm having this exact same issue on two different Nagios servers.  One
running Fedora and one running Ubuntu.  It is driving me crazy.



An SNMP Trap is received for a backup job.  It is properly translated and
ultimately received by Nagios.  I have a freshness check in place for the
service that will create a critical alert if a check is not received every
26 hours.  For whatever reason, the check is run right after the alert is
received and it think the results are 12K+ days old.  It seems to
periodically think the results are from 11-08-1973.



This is an ongoing issue on both servers, but certainly isn't the norm.
 Typically the freshness checks work great.  However, about once or twice a
week, I see this behavior on random checks.  Here is an example:



From the Nagios web interface 



[08-10-2008 00:06:07] SERVICE ALERT:
HHA_Backups;Backup_Incremental;CRITICAL;HARD;3;CRITICAL: Results of backup
job were not reported!
[08-10-2008 00:05:47] SERVICE ALERT:
HHA_Backups;Backup_Incremental;WARNING;SOFT;2;The job completed
successfully. However, the following conditions were encountered: 1 files
were skipped. A snapshot operation required by this job was unsuccessful.
Check the job log and the Windows Event Viewer for additional information.



From nagios.log 



[1218341147] PASSIVE SERVICE CHECK: HHA_Backups;Backup_Incremental;1;The job
completed successfully.  However, the following conditions were
encountered:  1 files were skipped. A snapshot operation required by this
job was unsuccessful. Check the job log and the Windows Event Viewer for
additional information.

[1218341147] SERVICE ALERT:
HHA_Backups;Backup_Incremental;WARNING;SOFT;2;The job completed
successfully.  However, the following conditions were encountered:  1 files
were skipped. A snapshot operation required by this job was unsuccessful.
Check the job log and the Windows Event Viewer for additional information.

[1218341166] Warning: The results of service 'Backup_Incremental' on host
'HHA_Backups' are stale by 12689d 23h 17m 32s (threshold=1d 2h 0m 0s).  I'm
forcing an immediate check of the service.

[1218341167] SERVICE ALERT:
HHA_Backups;Backup_Incremental;CRITICAL;HARD;3;CRITICAL: Results of backup
job were not reported!



Any ideas?

Thanks!

[Nagios-users] Why can't I Handle alerts?

2008-08-10 Thread Jay R. Ashworth
[Unthreaded, cause it's not really about the noises anymore]
[Now with 100% more unthreading..]

After discovering that the Quicktime that Firefox 3 will download
for you *will not run* on Win2k (it's too new, you need 7.1.6) *and*
that FF3 *blocks* that version for you because it crashes their build,
and they can't be bothered to find out why, I finally have FF playing
alert noises.

Every time.

Even though I'm on the Service Problems - Unhandled screen, and I've
gone into each service and acknowledged it.   Sticky.

They're still there.

They're still be-bonging.  (on the status page, not the tac page)

Anyone got any ideas what stupid thing I'm missing?

Audio Alerts on the CGI doco page is the only easily accessible place
that talks about them, and I'm not clear from it why that's
happening... unless it's that my tac page thinks they're still
unhandled problems, even though I've acknowledged them.

Do acknowledge and handle really not mean the same thing?

Cheers,

[Nagios-users] Any plugin for a TroubleTicketing System for Nagios??

2008-08-10 Thread Chetan Mahadev
Hi,

Just wanted to know, is there any trouble ticketing system to which we can
integrate alerts from Nagios??

1.Any specific plugin developed for BMC's Remedy??
2.Pls let me know any alternative Trouble ticketing system which can be
integrated with Nagios.

Thanks in advance..

It's pretty darn easy to make Nagios generate e-mails, so you can
trivially integrate it with something like RT or OTRS.

Hi Alex,

Thanks for the quick inputs!

I am aware that nagios can send e-mails.
But I had few doubts regarding the email feature..
How does Nagios send emails? Does it internally support an SMTP server?? I
am asking this question specifically because, if we go ahead with approach
advised by you ( RT or OTRS), does a SMTP server come to picture?

Pls enlighten me !!

You will usually have a local smtp server (sendmail, postfix) that will
work on it's own or use a smart relay. There are likely commands/utility
that will connect directly to a remote SMTP server too.

Nagios does not know anything about SMTP, it just runs commands. Make a
command or script that sent your emails and just set it up in Nagios.

FYI in my setups Nagios have it own SMTP server so that if the mail
system does down we can still alert about it. In addition we also pull
contact emails automatically from Active Directory groups, so we don't
have to play with configuration files every time something changes.

SMTP sounds nice, except in general it really isnt :)

You'll need a discriminating logic check to selectively generate tickets
for hosts/service status changes.  For example, the health check on your
CMS system probably shouldn't try to generate a CMS ticket.

Maybe a special contact group and/or regex matching in your
notify_command.

There's something wrong with the script/process returning these passive
check. The passive check returned to the Nagios command pipe has the
following format:

 [timestamp] 
 PROCESS_PASSIVE_CHECK_RESULT;hostname;service_name;return_code;status_text

The timestamp is a normal UNIX timestamp (seconds since EPOCH) and
determine the time at which the check was performed.

If you return an invalid/too old timestamp, Nagios will think the
service is that old and trigger the freshness check.

I believe a possible way to receive such old timestamps is if you have a
server with invalid date (i.e. in the 1972's) using send_nsca, where the
nsca daemon would be set up with max_packet_age=0.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios freshness checks randomly think check results are from 1973.

Thanks for the quick reply.  My date is correct on both servers, but I
am using the same two scripts on both.  This could certainly be
causing the issue.  They are modified versions of Francois Meehan's
snmptraphandling.py.  I don't know this first thing about python so I
just hacked around until I got them working the way I wanted.  I don't
think I changed anything to deal w/ time and date handling, but who
knows.  Here is one of the scripts

Here are two examples that don't have freshness checks.  It just seems
strange that they are always November of 1973.  The days are just
different

are being accepted

 I'm having this exact same issue on two different Nagios servers.  One

 An SNMP Trap is received for a backup job.  It is properly translated
 and ultimately received by Nagios.  I have a freshness check in place
 for the service that will create a critical alert if a check is not
 received every 26 hours.  For whatever reason, the check is run right
 after the alert is received and it think the results are 12K+ days old.
 It seems to periodically think the results are from 11-08-1973.



 This is an ongoing issue on both servers, but certainly isn't the norm.
  Typically the freshness checks work great.  However, about once or
 twice a week, I see this behavior on random checks.  Here is an example:

 There's something wrong with the script/process returning these passive
 check. The passive check returned to the Nagios command pipe has the
 following format:

 [timestamp]
 PROCESS_PASSIVE_CHECK_RESULT;hostname;service_name;return_code;status_text

 The timestamp is a normal UNIX timestamp (seconds since EPOCH) and
 determine the time at which the check was performed.

 If you return an invalid/too old timestamp, Nagios will think the
 service is that old and trigger the freshness check.

SMTP sounds nice, except in general it really isnt :)

You'll need a discriminating logic check to selectively generate tickets
for hosts/service status changes.  For example, the health check on your
CMS system probably shouldn't try to generate a CMS ticket.

Maybe a special contact group and/or regex matching in your
notify_command.

Why not tie into the event_handler, instead of the notify_command?
event_handler doesn't necessarily have to fix something, but it can
be used to trigger other events, such as logging a ticket.  It'd
certainly be a much better option than notify, as notify executes
every time a notification is supposed to be generated, which would
ultimately end up generating lots of tickets, unless you can build
some complex rules into your notification alert that checks for an
existing ticket for that host/service, then only creates it once.

If it happens all the time, try changing the output file and see what it
writes. Otherwise, you may try adding a debug file where you send the
same thing, though I don't know python so I can't really help. If you
manage to do  that then then next time it fails you can look at what it
wrote.
