[Nagios-users] Nagios side.html : tweaking Unhandled service problems
Hi, I thought it was great to have the unhandled service problems in the sidebar. Earlier versions didn't have it and I really needed it, so I'm very happy. However, I'm running a distributed setup with active and passive service checks, so I'm not only interested in the active checks, but also in the passive checks The default filter for unhandled service problems is : Not in schedulded downtime Has not been acknowledged Active checks enabled = serviceprops = 42 what I really need is : Not in schedulded downtime Has not been acknowledged Active checks enabled || Passive checks enabled = serviceprops = ?? I looked into the status.c source, but I can't seem to find the values to compose custom filters. Is there anyone out there who can point me into the right direction ?

This can cause a slowdown of your db-server. And Nagios slows down too, because of the latency in sending the results to the DB. -Check the database size of the ndo-db -Check your Nagios service check latency, high service check latency COULD be caused by slowly responding DB -Check nagios.log and mysql.log to see if there are any errors -Don't always think Nagios doesn't come up again. If your ndo is not performing as it should, it takes a long time for Nagios to startup and recreate a status.dat-file which is used by the cgi's. I've had a case were it took up to 5 minutes before the status.dat was created after a Nagios startup, because of the ndo -Make sure you have the latest ndo-version Good luck, Frederik - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100url=/ ___ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null

[Nagios-users] Nagios server hardware dimensions
Hello, I'm thinking about a hardware upgrade of my Nagios server. I have a setup with 1500 hosts and 9000 services (from which 2500 services are active and the other 6500 passive). I use the 'classic' Nagios interface for consulting + the Nagvis frontend with the ndo backend. In addition, I use Nagiosgrapher for graphing purposes. Now I'm in doubt if I would split the Nagios server in two servers : -one for the Nagios process + webinterface + nagiosgrapher -second as database-server for the ndo-backend Or maybe another configuration ? Would it be more interesting to invest in one server with more RAM and more powerful cpu's or is it more interesting to split it into two servers ?

Unfortunately the situation as I see it is, 1 I am running 2.3 not 2.3.1 and so my limited Perl plugins (home-brew) may not be picking up the problem. Also I lack a Nagios work bench at the moment so its going to be slow if heavy lifting is involved as it seems. 2 A quick glance at the CVS does not seem to show any relevant changes 2.1 there appear to be no changes in checks.c near the embedded Perl code 2.2 the change to p1.pl was only to allow plugins to return more than one line of output (the nagios-snmp plugins do this I think). 3 If Michael or Frederick would enable the LOGGING options in the copy of p1.pl they use for new_mini_epn (perldoc p1.pl should help). IIRC you want to change this p1.pl to have use constant DEBUG_LEVEL = LEAVE_MSG ; and make sure the plugin log path looks Ok.

The only quick workaround that may be worth a _try_ is to replace pl.pl for an older one from CVS (say 1.7). However, I am not confident. Perhaps my installation is a bit atypical: every one of the 2.0 series (inc betas) has been in prod use with either heavy or light embedded Perl without a hitch.

with the contact definition, using the macros $CONTACTADDRESS1$ and
$CONTACTADDRESS2$

Good luck,

Re: [Nagios-users] popup
Hello Toto,
jabber is really easy to set up. I followed these instructions :
http://linuxgazette.net/112/tomar.html
The jabber server was running within an hour.
I use the notification script of David Cox, that I found on Nagiosexchange.
On the PC-side, I use GAIM to read the messages.
My end-users are very happy with that solution.

Hi all,
Does anybody got popup notifications working ?
Works like a charm ! use this as your notify-command, or tune to your
needs
However I switched to jabber-notification (instant messaging)
because of
the rather 'aggressive' popups.
# 'notify-by-smbclient' command definition
define command{
command_namenotify-by-smbclient
command_line/usr/bin/printf %b * NAGIOS *

Re: [Nagios-users] NRPE + raidutil ?
Hello, late respone, I know, but what about chmod u+s raidutil Then your nrpe-user can execute the command with root-priviledges. Frederik [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm trying to monitor RAID array status using NRPE. But I'm running into minor security issues. * Adaptec 2100S RAID controller * CentOS 4.2 * raidutil RPM from http://i2o.shadowconnect.com When logged directly into the system to monitor, the raidutil command only works if I am root. chmod 755 `which raidutil` as root? But NRPE refuses to start if I tell it to use root as user and group. (Running under xinetd, in this case) Can anyone tell me the best (most secure) way to get this working properly? This web page seems to talk about it, but in Czech... http://homel.vsb.cz/~jas02/raid/ I am using an apparently custom Nagios plugin called check_dpt_raid and again, it seems to run manually just fine as long as I am root.

[Nagios-users] Nagios plugins voor Stratus VOS

i have distributed monitoring and the central server sometimes freeze

Hello all..
I am running my nagios central server on an HP 2.4ghz with 512mb ram.
At present, I am monitoring 65 hosts with approx. 400 services.
After a reboot, everything works perfectly, but the longer my server
runs, the more sluggish it gets and eventually the nsca processes
consume all the memory and the server stops responding. What also
happens it that I start getting hosts that are reported as down even
though they have the correct ping response.. the error says “PLUGIN
TIMED OUT after 10 seconds”
Here is an example of what I mean:
Host State Information
Host Status:
DOWN
Status Information:
CRITICAL - Plugin timed out after 10 seconds
Last Status Check:
01-16-2006 12:06:28
Status Data Age:
0d 0h 2m 57s
Last State Change:
01-16-2006 10:20:44
Current State Duration:
0d 1h 48m 41s
Last Host Notification:
01-16-2006 10:20:44
Current Notification Number:
2
Is This Host Flapping?
N/A
OK 01-16-2006 12:05:47 63d 19h 30m 59s 1/3 PING OK - Packet loss =
0%, RTA = 0.42 ms
I assume that these are related and that the lack of memory caused
this problem, would an upgrade to from nagios 1.2 to nagios 1.3 fix
this? If so, what is the best way to perform that upgrade?
my /etc/xinetd.d/nsca file :
# default: on
# description: NSCA
service nsca
{
flags = REUSE
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = nagios
group = nagios
server = /usr/sbin/nsca
server_args = -c /home/e-smith/nagios/nsca.cfg --inetd
cps = 9000 30
instances = UNLIMITED
log_on_failure += USERID
disable = no
only_from = ip1, ip2, ip3, etc..
}
command_check_interval= -1
System info:
SME server 6.01 (2.4.20-18.7, i686)
Perl v5.6.1
Apache/1.3.27
Nagios 1.2
Any advice would be great… thanks.
Chris

[Nagios-users] Problem reading configuration 2.0rc1-2 versus 2.0b3
Hello, I'm running a Nagios install for quite some time, first Nagios 1.2 then migrated to Nagios 2. Everytime there's a new version, I try to follow. Latest beta version I installed was 2.0b3 and everything ran fine. Now I upgraded to Nagios 2.0rc1 and 2.0rc2 and both have a problem with some of my template-based host-definitions. Is this a known issue (I saw something about host-definitions in the 2.0rc2 changelog, but it was not very clear to me what it was about) ? Thanks for any suggestions.
