Re: [Nagios-users] pnp4nagios - Hostname not set
Hi,
Ok, good shout.
I've install the latest version.
The config check page looks ok but I'm getting errors where is isn't any rrd
data yet.
How long does it take to start producing this data when in sync mode?
Can I force it along quicker so that I know everything working?
Thanks again

Hi guys,
I've followed the install instruction from here
(http://docs.pnp4nagios.org/pnp-0.4/install) to install pnp4nagios v4 on my
nagios 3.x running on a fedora 14 box but I'm stuck when verifying the install.
any specific reason not to use 0.6.x ?
When I do http://servername/Nagios/pnp my first error is 'Hostname is not set'
followed by 'perfdata folder is empty' and 'no rrd files'
I've looked and sure enough there are no rrd files in the folder, plus there is
no entry in the log file.
To me this suggests that Nagios isn't firing the command
'process-service-perfdata' after completing a check.
My commands.cfg file looks correct;
# Added by Tristan for PNP 4 Nagios
define command {
command_nameprocess-service-perfdata
command_line/usr/local/nagios/libexec/process_perfdata.pl
}
define command {
command_nameprocess-host-perfdata
command_line/usr/local/nagios/libexec/process_perfdata.pl -d
HOSTPERFDATA
}
And so is my Nagios.cfg file;
process_performance_data=1
host_perfdata_command=process-host-perfdata
service_perfdata_command=process-service-perfdata
these tow are the only things I've changed from the default install.
Any ideas what I've missed??
Any tips on how I can drill down further to see what's not happing and why?
Thanks in advance :)

Hey guys, I'm fairly new to Nagios and I'm monitoring about 100 hosts, each doing several checks and things are going great.

[Nagios-users] ndoutils 1.4b9 - Mysql Library not found
Hi guys, I'm looking to start filling a database for every alert that Nagios makes. I've come across the ndoutils but when I try to ./configure the install it keeps telling me that it can't find the mysql library's.

Thanks for the reply.

If I use the -a switch after -c checkEventLog all I get back is 'CHECK_NRPE: Received 0 bytes from daemon... blah, blah blah...'

Usually this means that something is overlooked , or there is a knowledge-gap in corrrect usage of the needed tool ; Some things to remark : - normally in your example command the '-a' flag should appear after checkEventLog to denote arguments following (I think) - in the NSC config file on the remote host, support for arguments must be , explicitly enabled, as also support for nasty meta chars (I think) - further I would advice to make tests against the lastest version of NSClient 0.3.8..x , because the syntax changed somewhat, and this can influence behavior, pending your are looking at links with correct examples w.r.t to the version of NSClient used , or not.

NSclient 3.3.20 installed on windows machine. Can someone provide a simple syntax that will at least produce something more interesting the 'ok' so I know that's it is possible? At the moment I'm thinking it's stuck at only reporting 'ok' no matter what I do. Ah, the ole-dead-thing, isn't working as it is supposed too case :-). Usually this means that something is overlooked , or there is a knowledge-gap in corrrect usage of the needed tool ; Some things to remark : - normally in your example command the '-a' flag should appear after checkEventLog to denote arguments following (I think) - in the NSC config file on the remote host, support for arguments must be , explicitly enabled, as also support for nasty meta chars (I think) - further I would advice to make tests against the lastest version of NSClient 0.3.8..x , because the syntax changed somewhat, and this can influence behavior, pending your are looking at links with correct examples w.r.t to the version of NSClient used , or not.

[Nagios-users] Check_snmp -d -s
Morning all, I'm trying to refine a few snmp checks I do. My command looks like this; ./check_snmp -H xx.xx.xx.xx -o READyNAS-MIB::diskState.1 -C nas-drive -P 2c -v This produces the following; /usr/bin/snmpget -t 1 -r 5 -m ALL -v 2c [authpriv] xx.xx.xx.xx READYNAS-MIB::diskState.1 READYNAS-MIB::diskState.1 = STRING: dead SNMP OK - dead | Now, as you can see from above, my disk 2 is 'dead' but Nagios reports this as ok. I'm under the impression I need to use the '-s' switch to specify what is good and what is bad, based on matching a string from the output. To me, the output above would suggest that the returning string is dead so to get it to report that this is actually bad I should use -s ok as ok is the string returned on all the other disks that are working ok. - working disk--- /usr/bin/snmpget -t 1 -r 5 -m ALL -v 2c [authpriv] xx.xx.xx.xx READYNAS-MIB::diskState.2 READYNAS-MIB::diskState.2 = STRING: ok SNMP OK - ok | - working disk--- Sadly, this doesn't work as it seems that ok and dead aren't the returning strings. Neither are 1 and 0 as stated in the readynas MIB documentation. Anyone got any ideas?? Have I messed up the syntax?? Thanks in advance, Tristan Micro Peripherals Limited.

Re: [Nagios-users] Check_snmp -d -s
Hi, Just in case anyone wanted to know.. I resolved my issue my created a wrap script for the check_snmp plugin. Quite simple really :) script #!/bin/bash # Run check_snmp with param check=$(/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp -H $1 -o $2 -C nas-drive -P 2c) # echo result (testing) # echo $check # return result if CRITICAL if [[ $check == *dead* ]] then echo Disk OFFLINE - CRITICAL; exit 2 fi # return result if OK if [[ $check == *ok* ]] then echo Disk Online - OK; exit 0 fi # end script -Original Message- From: Tristan Drinkwater [mailto:trist...@micro-p.com] Sent: 11 February 2011 11:34 To: Nagios Users List Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Check_snmp -d -s Interesting. How do I go about a wrap script then? I take it I call the script from the command_check line? Anything special about outputting the result so Nagios can see it? thanks -Original Message- From: Yueh-Hung Liu [mailto:yuehung@gmail.com] Sent: 11 February 2011 11:24 To: Nagios Users List Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Check_snmp -d -s you can write a wrap script, which would be the check command, to deal the return string and report correct status to Nagios. of course this script will use check_snmp in it.
