Re: [Nagios-users] Integration of reports-module

Not really. First of all because the op5-reports-module functionality has been superseded by Merlin, and secondly because it by its very nature already gets tightly coupled with Nagios as soon as it's loaded into the Nagios core. What we could do is to add a relatively simple module download, build and install tool that takes care of installing modules such as merlin, livestatus, DNX, NDOUtils and whatnot. I could add a fairly simple framework for it and then random module authors could take care of adding support for their own modules or addons. That's probably the closest we're going to get to shipping addons and modules along with Nagios core, and it's really the only sensible thing to do. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.erics...@op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war on peace. -- Achieve unprecedented app performance and reliability What every C/C++ and Fortran developer should know.

Re: [Nagios-users] Event Handlers, start a java program, nohup issues.
Hello users: Thank you for all the answers. I have made some changes to my command: I added a space before the character and I explicitly piped the stdout and stderr to my log file to avoid missunderstandings. The command looks like this now: nohup $JAVA_CMD -cp $CLASSPATH $JVM_OPTIONS JMXServer.JMXServerDispatcher $PORT /dev/null $LOG_FILE 2$LOG_FILE The result however is much worst in this case, instead of seeing a timeout in the logs, the whole nagios process hangs (that is the logs freeze and no new tests are performed). I believe these issues have to do with how nagios handles the character or processes in the background in general. Any thoughts? other suggestions? //Marco By the way David: We have used the check_jmx plugin in the past with out own modifications, however we have a very large system with around 1000 JMX queries running each 5 minutes and the check_jmx solution is not very scalable. If we use check_jmx that means starting 1000 JVM (and all the resources that come with it) every five minutes, that consumes a lot of resources and generates a lot of load on the monitoring server. Our system is continuously growing and new JMX queries are added quite frequently. To solve that issue we have developed a JMX server that takes care of all the JMX queries and a light weight client that is run by nagios. This is a much more scalable solution that decouples the whole JMX processing from nagios (the JMX server can be running in any machine not only the nagios server).

Re: [Nagios-users] Integrating host notes into Nagios html...
Actually it is the notes_url you are interested in, this is a variable you can set in the host definition. The action url is normally used to display extra actions for a host, this is normally a pnp graph with the host performance data from pnp4nagios, nagiosgraph or some other graphing plugin. From the nagios documentation: *notes_url: This variable is used to define an optional URL that can be used to provide more information about the host. If you specify an URL, you will see a red folder icon in the CGIs (when you are viewing host information) that links to the URL you specify here. Any valid URL can be used. If you plan on using relative paths, the base path will the the same as what is used to access the CGIs (i.e. **/cgi-bin/nagios/). This can be very useful if you want to make detailed information on the host, emergency contact methods, etc. available to other support staff. * //Marco 2009/4/13 Lei Chen clo...@gmail.com I think that action_url can do that.

Re: [Nagios-users] snmptt and nagios, access to nagios.cmd file
Hello Jim: Thank you very much for the help, after changing the last line in the submit_check_result script from the default of: `$echocmd $cmdline $CommandFile` to: sg nagiocmd -c echo '$cmdline' $CommandFile everything works fine. As for my setup, I run nagios 3 and Nagtrap. However I send the notifications as passive checks directly from snmptt's EXEC statement. I some special logic in my script to select the right alarm level and then send it to nagios with submit_check_result. I link to nagtrap using the action_url in all my snmptrap services. I catch all the traps in Nagtrap, however only some of them generate alarms. Whenever an alarm is generated by the selected traps, you can always check the rest of received traps in nagtrap.

I moved to using NagTrap because I found that maintaining the submit_check_result script was rather time-consuming, but if things have moved on a bit since I last set mine up I'd be interested to see if it's any easier to maintain now. I quite like NagTrap, but if you follow the standard install for it, there's a lot of polling the database which is very cpu intensive compared with writing direct to the command file as you do. Also, the alerts aren't so meaningful with NagTrap as they are in your setup.

[Nagios-users] snmptt and nagios, access to nagios.cmd file
Hello Users: I am having touble integrating nagios with snmptt, it seems that the snmptt daemon can not write passive check results to the /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd file. I get the following error: cannot create /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd: Permission denied The wierd thing is that I have added the snmptt user to the nagcmd group. I can actually run the EXEC command from the console and manually send the check results by running: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/eventhandlers/submit_check_result myhost snmp_traps 1 My text message as the snmptt user. But when the snmptt tries to run it when a trap is received I get the above error. Any suggestions or recommendations are deeply appreciated //Marco -- Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.

Re: [Nagios-users] graphing trends across hosts or services instead of a timeseries
Hello: PNP4Nagios has a feature called pages that allows you to show multiple services for the same host or multiple hosts for the same service. It should be easy to use since it supports regular expressions.

[Nagios-users] Automatic Configuration Update
Hello users: I am trying to do the following: - From a script, automatically generate Nagios configuration files for host addition. - From the same script export individual files to a web based Nagios configuration tool (NagiosQL or Lilac for example). - Finally reload both Nagios and the Web Configuration tool, also from the script. I have looked at both NagiosQL and Lilac since both have nice configuration tools and import options. However none of them provide a text console interface for importing config files from a script nor periodical scheduling of file imports. Has anybody implemented this? Is there a better tool for this besides NagiosQL or Lilac? Any pointers are appreciated //Marco -- Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H___ 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] RRDtool Aberrant behavior detection
Hello Nagios Users: I am very interested in integrating RRDtool's features for aberrant behavior detection with my nagios implementation. I still have not found a plugin for this and I would like to know if anybody has already implemented this. I guess an option would be to adapt plugins pnp4nagios or nagiosgraph to get it to work. Any pointers or comments are deeply appreciated.
