[Nagios-users] RRD checking for high and low values
Hi all! I was looking for plugins to check the values of RRD databases and found these in Nagios Exchange: http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Plugins/Databases/RRD Unfortunately none of them seems to be established whether the thresholds are higher or lower. This would be useful if we monitor the values of a UPS, for example. I mean something like the options provided by check_lm_sensors: -l, --low specifies a check for a sensor value which is too low. Example: --low fan1=2000,1000 will give a warning if the value of the fan1 sensor drops below 2000 RPMs and a critical status if it drops below 1000 RPMs -h, --high specifies a check for a sensor value which is too high. Example: --high temp1=50,60 will give a warning if the value of the temp1 sensor reaches 50 degrees and a critical status if it reaches 60 degrees Is there a plugin for RRD having this flexibility? Thanks in advance for your reply.

However I can access their information through the following URL: http://ws1/nagios/pnp/index.php These are the lines I've in /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg for pnp4nagios: broker_module=/usr/local/nagios/bin/npcdmod.o process_performance_data=1 enable_environment_macros=1 host_perfdata_command=process-host-perfdata service_perfdata_command=process-service-perfdata In /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/mynet.cfg I added srv-pnp to the service definitions in the directive use and I added host-pnp to the directive use in the hosts definitions. Also, I'm using process_perf_data 0 in both hosts and services definitions. The srv-pnp and host-pnp templates will set the process_perf_data directive like so: process_perf_data 1 If you override this by setting process_perf_data to 0 in the host or service definition, this will stop PNP from generating the graph! I recommend you remove the line which says process_perf_data 0 from those service and host definitions in mynet.cfg which use the srv-pnp and host-pnp template. Good. This made the difference. Now I can see the graphics on all remote hosts but I can not see them on the host on which Nagios is installed. But I found why this is. I was missing add host-pnp and srv-pnp in the directive use in /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/localhost.cfg file. There are services that are failing to be plotted but I believe that it is because they are not providing information for perfdata, as in the case of check_md_raid. In the service state information table for the check_md_raid service, the performance data is empty. But I don't believe that it has much sense, for this particular case, to make some type of graph. Perhaps for this case it may be desirable to set process_perf_data to 0. check_ssh and check_local_procs don't give information for perfdata either. On the other hand, I've a router whose host_name is Router#1. It appears that the # was causing a conflict that would prevent the creation of the directory to keep track of charting. After removing this character, the problem was solved. For this router I'm checking three services: Enet0, PING, uptime. Of these three services, only PING (check_ping) is providing perfdata information. Uptime is obtained using check_snmp and in this case it would not have sense to plotting these values. But the values of the Enet0 interface (check_snmp_int [1]) can be useful. Thanks for your reply.

[Nagios-users] Using PNP4Nagios
Hi, all!
I'm testing PNP4Nagios, but for some reason I'm just looking graphics
for services in the Nagios server. For the rest of the remote hosts,
when I click on the some red star, I get something like this:
Initalising
(OK) Using /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/
(OK) RRDTool /usr/bin/rrdtool found.
(OK) RRDTool /usr/bin/rrdtool is executable
(OK) PHP Function proc_open is enabled
(OK) PHP Function fpassthru is enabled
(OK) PHP Function xml_parser_create is enabled
(OK) PHP zlib Support found.
(OK) PHP GD Support found.
(OK) RRD Base Directory /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/ found.
(OK) Hostname Router is set.
(!) Directory /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/alderamin not found.
Where Alderamin is the hostname. In the service status interface, the
Nagios server shows no red stars for the host or for services. However I
can access their information through the following URL:
http://ws1/nagios/pnp/index.php
These are the lines I've in /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg for
pnp4nagios:
broker_module=/usr/local/nagios/bin/npcdmod.o
process_performance_data=1
enable_environment_macros=1
host_perfdata_command=process-host-perfdata
service_perfdata_command=process-service-perfdata
In /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/mynet.cfg I added srv-pnp to the
service definitions in the directive use and I added host-pnp to the
directive use in the hosts definitions. Also, I'm using
process_perf_data 0 in both hosts and services definitions.
In /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/templates.cfg I added the following
definitions:
# DGB - 20100620
define host {
name host-pnp
register 0
action_url /nagios/pnp/index.php?host=$HOSTNAME$
}
define service {
name srv-pnp
register 0
action_url /nagios/pnp/index.php?host=$HOSTNAME$srv=$SERVICEDESC$
}
And in /usr/local/nagios/etc/object/commands.cfg I replace the existing
definitions of process-host-perfdata and process-service-perfdata for
the following:
define command {
command_nameprocess-service-perfdata
command_line/usr/bin/perl
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/process_perfdata.pl
}
define command {
command_nameprocess-host-perfdata
command_line/usr/bin/perl
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/process_perfdata.pl -d HOSTPERFDATA
}
Am I doing something wrong or I am forgetting some step?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
Regards,
Daniel

[Nagios-users] About Nagios3 and arbitrary code execution
Hi all! At the moment I am using Nagios 3.0.6 (12/01/2008) compiled from the source code provided from nagios.org. Recently I have read in the DSA-1825-1 [1] about an arbitrary code execution. According to I see in changelog of the version 3.1.1, it incorporates a security fix for statuswml.cgi where arbitrary shell injection was possible. Somebody could confirm to me that this vulnerability is the same that is mentioned in the DSA? Thanks in advance.

yes, I believe an escalation would do for this. I haven't done this
but I expect you could set your first notification to the number of
the last notification you want to receive (i.e. 3 for the third
notification) and your last notification to some high number (99).
Create a contact with a notification period of 'none' and set it as
the contact for the escalation.
It seems a good idea :-) I am going to try it and any doubt I will
consult you again.
With a little more of time, I was reading about escalations and, to
where I could see, these are created by host and services. Unless there
is a general form to define the escalations, I don't believe that it is
practical considering that I have 291 services and 58 hosts.
Apparently wilcards for the names of services can be used [1] although I
am not sure if also it is possible to be done for the hostnames. Will
wildcards (or .*) be valid with Nagios 3.0.6?
These are the definitions that I was thinking to use:
define hostescalation{
host_name *
first_notification1
last_notification 3
escalation_period none
notification_interval 60
contact_groupsadmins
}
define hostescalation{

[Nagios-users] Output from check_local_mrtgtraf
Hi all!
I am observing some differences between which I see with MRTG and the
output from check_local_mrtgtraf. For example, if I manually execute the
command, I obtain the following thing:
# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_mrtgtraf -F \
/space/www/htdocs/mrtg.sysadminhaiku.com.ar/192.168.1.1_1.log -a AVG \
-w 100,100 -c 500,500 -e 10
Traffic OK - Avg. In = 410,0 B/s, Avg. Out = 797,0
B/s|in=410,00B/s;100,00;500,00;0,00
in=797,00B/s;100,00;500,00;0,00
The last values registered by MRTG that I see by the web interface are
the following:
`Daily' Graph (5 Minute Average)
Max Average Current
In 40.3 kb/s (0.0%)3616.0 b/s (0.0%) 3272.0 b/s (0.0%)
Out 1809.5 kb/s (1.8%) 44.6 kb/s (0.0%)6376.0 b/s (0.0%)
This is the service definition:
define service{
use generic-service ; Inherit values from a template
host_name Router#1
service_description Bandwidth Usage
check_command
check_local_mrtgtraf!/space/www/htdocs/mrtg.sysadminhaiku.com.ar/192.168.1.1_1.log!AVG!100,100!500,500!10
}
I do not have left very clear to what that difference can be due or if I
am losing myself in the interpretation of the data of Nagios plugin.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Daniel

The permissions are according to Ubuntu Quickstart. Changing the
group of nagios.cmd to nagcmd I get rid of the problem. But
restarting Nagios, the nagios.cmd permissions are reset to
nagios:nagios. What can be the problem?
Sounds like when you updated you compiled with a different user and/or
group than your older version.
I upgrade follow this [1] guide, using:
./configure --with-command-group=nagcmd
make all
make install
Previously I did not make changes in the users or groups. These are:
sparky:/usr/local/nagios/var/rw# id nagios
uid=1001(nagios) gid=1001(nagios) groups=1001(nagios),1002(nagcmd)
sparky:/usr/local/nagios/var/rw# id www-data
uid=33(www-data) gid=33(www-data) groups=33(www-data),1002(nagcmd)
In case it is of utility, after to run the 'configure', this is the
summary that I obtain:

[Nagios-users] Monitoring software RAID in Debian GNU/Linux
Hi all!! I'm testing the plugin check_md_raid.pl [1] on Debian GNU/Linux Etch and I've removed a member of RAID device with the following commands: mdadm --manage /dev/md2 --fail /dev/sdb3 mdadm --manage /dev/md2 --remove /dev/sdb3 But Executing by hand the plugin, it shows the RAID status in OK during degraded and rebuilding modes: xenhost7:/usr/local/nagios/libexec/non-std# ./check_md_raid.pl RAID OK: All arrays OK Is it correct to suppose the status would have to be CRITICAL and WARNING, respectively?

Well, Nagios didn't produce host notifications again. But, if Nagios will always assume the host is up, why it continues displaying the host in down state? I would guess that the template you were using had retain_status_information enabled. You removed it but nagios had already written out the down status to the retention file and used that on the restart. Try restarting nagios again. If that doesn't work you can probably stop nagios, edit the state retention file to remove the host stanza (making a backup first of course) and restart nagios.

Error: Host check command '(null)' specified for host 'sparky' is
not defined anywhere!
I'm missing something from the documentation?
No, it's just awkward wording. You need to leave the line out
entirely; don't even specify the keyword 'check_command' within the
host definition.
Oh, well. In addition to it, I've deleted the line use linux-server to
avoid to use the check-host-alive command in the template definition.
This is my host definition:
define host{
host_name sparky
alias nagios server
address 127.0.0.1
max_check_attempts 10
icon_image base/sun40.gif
statusmap_image base/sun40.gd2
contact_groups nagios admins
notification_period sysadmin_time
}
I didn't get errors after Nagios restart, but it continue displaying the
host in down state, yet.
Thanks for your response, Marc.

Daniel

I'm using Nagios 3. Could you give me an example? I was searching
documentation about it, but I didn't found how to do it yet.
With nagios-2, you could pass it as a $ARGx$ macro from each service
definition or create an nrpe command{} definition per host.
Yes. It was first that I thought. But perhaps there would be a best form
to deal with it. :-)
Thanks for your answer, Marc.

[Nagios-users] Host object redefinition
Hi all!
This is my first post in the list/newsgroup.
I've several hosts behind a firewall and I'd like to monitoring they
with Nagios. These host haven't a public IP. Then, mi idea was to
configure the firewall to redirect the Nagios server conection at
specific port in the firewall ---one per host without public IP behind
the firewall--- to remote NRPE listen port from the remote host.
Then, I'd like to redefine the host object to include a port variable
for call it in a general service definition. Example:
define host {
use linux-server-intranet
host_name sdptest
alias oracle server
address a.b.c.d
port 5000
parents beta
icon_image base/debian.gif
statusmap_image base/debian.gd2
}
define service {
use linux-server-intranet
host_name apstest
alias application server
address x.y.z.t
port 5001
parents beta
icon_image base/debian.gif
statusmap_image base/debian.gd2
}
# 'check_nrpe-intranet' command definition
define command{
command_namecheck_nrpe-intranet
command_line$USER1$/check_nrpe -H ip.of.the.fw -p $PORT$ -c $ARG2$
}
define service {
use generic-service
host_name apstest,sdptest
service_description Disk usage
check_command check_nrpe!check_disk
check_period 24x7
normal_check_interval 5
retry_check_interval 1
max_check_attempts3
}
Is it possible?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Daniel
