HI All,
I was wondering if itwould be possible to have nagios send a message
to
TWO (2) different email addresses for the same contact. I remember
reading about email2 to email6 but I can's seem to find how this is
accomplished. Any help is greatly appriciated.
If you're using /bin/mail(x) as your notification command you can just
specify a comma separated list of e-mail addresses since it accepts that
format.

I have 5 data collector machines running nagios -and- cricket for thousands of services each with nagios reporting all results back to two central hosts as documented. Average latency is 0.689 seconds and Max of 3.65 seconds right now. The distributed server should be performing exactly like a regular active server as far as latency stats are concerned. You're either starving nagios for resources needed to run its active checks (run ~nagios/bin/nagios -s ~nagios/etc/nagios.cfg to see recommended settings) or, less likely, something is wrong with your submit-check-result. If you submit a result from the command line, does it complete in a timely manner? If you disable OCSP does the latency go away? Basic troubleshooting dictates you should try methodically enabling features on your distributed machine to turn it from an active-only server to active submitting check results via OCSP.

Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Config Issues {Disarmed} {Fraud?}
Here is the information that you requested, again I thank you so much
for
your help.
Services:
define service{
use generic-service
name basic-service
is_volatile 0
check_period 24x7
max_check_attempts 15
normal_check_interval 60
retry_check_interval 2
notification_interval 0
notification_period none
register 0
}
define service{

register 0
}
define service{
use ping-service
service_description PING
contact_groups networking
hostgroup_name Grossley Hall
}
Is this level of nesting really necessary? I'm sure it works but it does
make your config un-necessarily difficult to follow/troubleshoot.
Hosts:
define host{
host_name 172.16.1.3
address 172.16.1.3
check_command check-host-alive
max_check_attempts 5
check_period 24x7
process_perf_data 0
retain_nonstatus_information 0
contact_groups networking
notification_interval 30
notification_period 24x7
notification_options d,u,r
}
The ping-service is only applied to hosts in the Grossley
Hall hostgroup. Are these hosts in that hostgroup? Since you don't
specify it in the host definition you must have a hostgroup{} definition
for Grossley Hall that includes them. Alternately, these hosts could be
added to a new hostgroup that is included in the ping-service above.
Alternately, you could have a specific service{} definition for these
specific hosts that uses the ping-service.

On one of my hosts, I have 12 services that need to be monitored as often as possible. Ideally, the services would each be checked once a minute. To do this, I have set the check_interval to 1 as well as the retry_check_interval to 1. Under normal circumstances this does a check approximatly once a minute, give or take. However, every 24 hours a slew of once every 24 hours checks start, and pushes the checks to more than 20-30 minute intervals. I would love to set the priority on the once-per- minute check, and let the once-per-day checks fill in as needed, rather than hammer out all at once. Any advice as to how to achieve this? You can't prioritize one check over another as nagios automagically figures out when they should run. I would expect though that if you have an appropriate number set for max_concurrent_checks that nagios will run both sets when expected in a timely manner. Do you have that value set at a high enough level to cover both your 1 minute checks and your 24 hour checks? -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

Is it possible to limit the service check of Nagios that it will only run 2 service checks on one host in one point of time? If it is possible, how is it done? You don't really have that level of control over scheduling.

In this 4 time retry period, will Nagios finish this retry check first then run the next scheduled service check or will nagios run the retry check and the next service check in parallel? If you're talking about checks of the same service, nagios will not return to normal check intervals for that service until max_check_attempts is reached or the service returns an OK state. During this time nagios will continue to process other service checks at their normal_check_interval in parallel. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

It's quite hard for me, since my project requires me to only have a maximum 2 connections (service check) to a host. Do you have other suggestions than setting the max_concurrent_checks to 2? I never suggested changing max_concurrent_check but rather service_interleave_factor. They're definitely different beasts. As for other suggestions... - Create one or more plugins that then run multiple plugins sequentially and aggregate the results following the plugin guidelines (http://nagiosplug.sf.net) for reporting back to nagios. These new plugins would be the service checks you tell nagios to run. - or, disable parallelization entirely and force nagios to run all checks sequentially. This is definitely not desirable as it really limits your scalability and the frequency that you can run checks. Another question is: Is it possible in Nagios to specify on a per-host basis, whether or not a service check can be parallelized? No, but... http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/parallelization.html says ... If all else fails you can effectively prevent service checks from being parallelized by setting the max_concurrent_checks option to 1. This will allow only one service to be checked at a time, so it isn't a spectacular solution. If there is enough demand, I will add an option to the service definitions which will allow you to specify on a per-service basis whether or not a service check can be parallelized. If there isn't enough demand, I won't... You might want to chime in on nagios-devel to express support for such a feature. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

Subject: [Nagios-users] Strange Return code Error
mailto:nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Hi Guys,
I just installed configured nagios on a RHEL4 U4 64bit
2.6.9-34.ELsmp
[EMAIL PROTECTED] dist]# rpm -qa | grep nagios
nagios-2.9-1.el4.rf
nagios-plugins-1.4.8-2.el4.rf
nagios-plugins-nrpe-2.5.2-1.el4.rf
nagios-nrpe-2.5.2-1.el4.rf
And I get a Return code of 127 for check of service 'n-users' on host
'fisdb01' was out of bounds Message on all services on all hosts.
I saw on http://www.nagios.org/faqs/viewfaq.php?faq_id=17 that this
was
most likely a problem with the path to the executable.
but if that was so I wouldn't be able to do this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] services]# /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H
localhost
-c check_users
USERS OK - 3 users currently logged in |users=3;5;10;0
which proves it executes and in the right place. Right?
Not at all. It just means that root can run a program successfully when
called directly. The question you should be asking is does the command{}
definition for this plugin use that full path? The default configs
typically use the $USER1$ macro for the path which must be properly set
in resource.cfg. Is $USER1$ pointing to the correct path? Is
resource.cfg being loaded by nagios?
Also, as pointed out previously, the plugins are never run as the root
user, always the nagios user. While it's not likely in this case, the
nagios user certainly isn't guaranteed the same access privileges as the
root user. You should always perform plugin tests as the nagios user.

Hi, I have enabled performance data in Nagios, and it is saved to host- perfdata.out and service-perfdata.out. I want to show this in some nice graphs. After some research I found Nagiosgrapher could be the right tool, and another user told me I could use Nagiosgrapher without SNMP. In order to install NagiosGrapher I need to install RRD tools, and someone told me that RRD only uses SNMP. RRDTool does not require SNMP or any other particular collection method; it's just usually the most convenient way to retrieve data. The collection of the data happens completely outside of RRDTool. All RRDTool really cares about is that you feed it numbers. It doesn't care where or how you retrieved those numbers. Can I use NagiosGrapher even though we cannot use SNMP to monitor? I don't use NagiosGrapher but it sounds like you're able to retrieve the numbers it would need to feed to RRDTool so it sounds like you're OK to proceed. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

That's acceptable and expected. Latency is more concerning since it means that nagios isn't being allowed to run checks when it's supposed to.

Not really related but $SERVICEDESC$ and $SERVICESTATE$ will always be
null for a host notification. You should remove them.
Email notifications work fine. Service notifications via SMS work
fine.
Only the hsot notifications via SMS do no t work correctly.
Here's the output I do receive from the host notification via SMS:
Recovery:
Server1: is ()
These command definitions worked fine on my Nagios v 1.3 system.
Not likely since $HOSTOUTPUT$ wasn't valid then ;) In any event, I think
they worked fine under 1.3 and you're seeing your current results
because host-notify-by-sms is never actually used. Do you really have
contact definitions that use host-notify-by-sms? It would seem more
likely that they all use notify-by-sms for both
service_notification_commands and host_notification_commands.

Do you have to disable/enable the retain_nonstatus_information directive and restart Nagios? You could change the parameter via the GUI as you've been doing or stop nagios and remove the retention file if you want to just start retention from scratch globally. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

This is on a version 1.x Nagios server. The server is monitoring 678 hosts and 3481 services organized in 29 host groups. Most checks are done on 5 minutes intervals. I've gone over all of the documented tweaks to improve performance. The hardware seems adequate and isn't starved for CPU; loads seem reasonable; although the Check Latency under the Performance Info screen continually creeps up - currently at Max. 23 seconds. Time to load the Status Overview screen: 8,5,6,6 seconds Time to load the Status Summary screen: 42,35 I guess my first question is what do your uses expect in terms of performance? This is not unusual for a 1.x installation with large numbers of hosts/services. I had hostgroup overview pages that were taking up to 5 minutes to generate and I needed to cron them. There were significant optimizations done in 2.x to correct the way the CGI's internally traversed host and service entries resulting in the same pages generating in about 6 _seconds_. You should upgrade. 1.x is getting very old now. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

What I mean id that probably the machine is in a hung state and that is why we can ping it but still not access it. Please tell me what will be the best check for such a situation on windows clients. I'd start with how you manually determine that it's hung and work from there. It's a pretty vague scenario. Does it still respond on TCP ports? Are services still running? Find an external service on the machine that isn't responding when the hang occurs and add it as a normal check. Perhaps running NRPE_NT or nsclient++ on the machine and performing a normal check would be sufficient. I'd prefer some network based test myself though if I could get away with it, check_tcp for example. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

Please always respond on list. You'll be giving experience back to the community and future readers will benefit from it. -Original Message- From: Lalita Drolia [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2007 7:46 AM To: Marc Powell Subject: RE: [Nagios-users] checking windows clients for hung state That is what I was guessing Marc that you need to check for the particular service which is causing the machine to hang. I would like to give you an example of solaris servers. They have a state called ok promot as I understand and you can ping the machine in that state but its stuck in the boot up process. So I have put a check on ssh to overcome this problem because ssh will be working only when the machine would have booted up properly and be usable. Yes, that's the kind of check I'm proposing for your windows machine. Similarly, I was wondering that can we put a check on some service on windows machines which will definetly be halted in case the machine hangs? I hope I have made myself clear and not confused you :) How can we know? We don't even know what services your windows machine is running. Is it running IIS? Does IIS respond when the machine hangs? If not, then use check_http to check IIS. Is it running DNS? Does it respond to DNS queries when the machine hangs? If not, use check_dns. Does port 139 respond when the machine hangs? If not, then use check_tcp to check that port. You'll have to perform tests such as these based on the services the machine is running to determine what's best to use. Nmap can help you determine what ports your machine is normally listening on if you don't know. If the machine is 'hung' but still responds to network tests properly then you'll need to dig further to determine what's actually broken when it's in this state and use that as a basis for your check. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

One of my nagios services runs ~ one hours, so I have to set service_check_timeout to one hour in the nagios.cfg. You should probably consider making this a passive check. But for other services I'd like to leave timeout = 60 seconds. How I can do it? Most standard plugins support a -t switch to specify a timeout. You'll need to modify all your commands to specify that switch for the plugins that support it. If the plugin doesn't honor the -t switch, ignores it, fails to timeout or fails to exit for whatever reason, it will continue to run until nagios aborts it at the 1 hour mark. This should be a rare case though as plugins should run and end themselves in a timely manner normally. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

If yes, where please :-) You cannot. Your OS's TCP stack determines what source IP to use; the base IP on the interface used to reach the destination network. Actually, some versions of ping do allow you to set the source address. The version in iputils package allows you to set the IP via -I address or interface name. I don't have a machine I can test the exact situation described, but I believe it will work as desired.

Hi Jeffrey I encountered the exact same issue. I've managed to bring it under control with two things, but have not yet found a solution. It seems nagios just stops reading the command pipe every once in a while and will resume after a few minutes. Has anyone arrived at a permanent solution? FWIW, I have a fairly large passive-only install with just over 4000 passive checks every 5 minutes. I haven't experienced this problem. It's a pretty simple, standard install but one difference is I don't perform any host checks. Perhaps you have host checks that are not optimized or completing in a timely manner and are holding up processing of other tasks. Nagios will stop all other processing during host checks until they complete. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

Subject: [Nagios-users] Sharing local/remote machine .cfg
I am relatively new to Nagios, I am setting up a group of Linux
machines
that
all send reports to a central monitoring one with nsca.
I have a separate .cfg file for each machine, I would like to share
this
file
between remote and central machines - so that if I change anything I
just
copy it over.
One change that *is* needed is the value of active_checks_enabled -
which
is zero
on the central box and one on the remote.
I tried something like this in a 'define service':
active_checks_enabled $USER11$
and elsewhere had:
$USER11$=1
or
$USER11$=0
as appropriate for the machine.
This does not work. Why ? and is there a way of achieving what I want
to
do ?
Macros are only available to command {} definitions. You can't use them
anywhere else.
What I do is to create a template in a new config file (templates.cfg
for example) with the differing values and the hosts/services inherit
that template. Something like --
Central machine -
define host {
namehost-active-checks
active_checks_enabled 1
register 0
}
define service {
name service-active-checks
active_checks_enabled 1
register 0
}
Remote machine -
define host {
namehost-active-checks
active_checks_enabled 0
register 0
}
define service {
name service-active-checks
active_checks_enabled 0
register 0
}
Then your shared file would use
define host {
use host-active-checks
... other host specific stuff ...
}
define service {
use service-active-checks
... other service specific stuff ...
}

So check_http!-H site.com -t 5 -a admin:password
should be
check_http!-H site.com!-t 5!-a admin:password?
Is that how you've configured your check_http command{} definition to
expect thme? I think that's where your breakdown is. This is usually how
it's done --
define command {
command_name check_http_url
command_line $USER1$/check_http -H $ARG1$ -I
$HOSTADDRESS$ -u $ARG2$ -wt 20 -ct 30 -to 35 -s $ARG3$
}
define host{
use generic-host
host_name nateng-myserver-prodlnx01
alias connecten-prodlnx01
address 172.27.0.2
}
# Service definition
define service{
use generic-service
host_name nateng-myserver-prodlnx01
service_description HTTP
contact_groups nateng-oncall-servers
max_check_attempts 2
retry_check_interval1
check_command
check_http_url!www.mysite.com!/portal!/html
}
That will check for the string '/html' on the page '/portal' on the
vhost 'www.mysite.com' hosted on the webserver at ip address
'172.27.0.2'.
Does that look anything like what you have? I left a lot of the generic
template stuff out but you should get the gist if you've read the docs
on macros and sending arguments to commands.

If I change the hosts.cfg from the IP of the server (10.10.10.7) to
the
URL I'm specifying in services.cfg, it works fine. The default site
for
10.10.10.7 is a CRM site which requires basic auth. So even though
i'm
specifying a URL in services.cfg, it looks like it's be overridden by
the
hosts.cfg so it can't auth. What is the point of the -H switch in
services.cfg if it always uses the IP for the host in hosts.cfg? I
tried
that format (-a admin:password) at the end of the check in
services.cfg
but it still failed with unauthorized.
It's looking more and more clear that your command{} definition doesn't
do what you think it does. You don't usually specify switches such as -H
and -a as part of the service definition. Perhaps you should post the
host, service and relevant command definitions for us to look at. I know
for a fact that check_http can and will work the way you want if
properly called.

Nothing in the mail.log file about email being sent - or trying to be

Any help is appreciated! I realize that this is probably a simple
fix as I said before - but it is alluding me at the moment.
In cases like this, it's often very useful to try to manually run the

running the command above as the nagios user? It'll look something like
the following if I've done my substitutions correctly, guessing at some

More information about this error may be available in the server error

Did you look in your web server error log? I don't know what version of
CentOS you are running but do you have SELinux enabled? It might be
complaining about that in error_log.

Re: [Nagios-users] Time-Saving Tricks For Service Definitions
-Original Message-

[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Caylan Van Larson
Sent: Friday, June 29, 2007 11:49 AM
To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net
Subject: [Nagios-users] Time-Saving Tricks For Service Definitions
Howdy,
I think I've found a bug with the Object Definition Tricks found at
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/templatetricks.html#service.
define service{
namedell-hardware
service_description Dell Hardware
hostgroup_name dell-servers
contact_groups sysadmins
check_command check_nrpe!check_dell
}
Right up until I add back in a legacy host/service definition...
define host {
use production-host
host_name newhost
alias New Host
address y.y.y.y
}
define service {
use dell-hardware
host newhost
}
dell-hardware is a registered service that is applied to all hosts in
the hostgroup dell-servers. It is _not_ a template (register 0) that can
be applied to arbitrary service definitions.
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/templaterecursion.html
The third variable is register. This variable is used to indicate
whether or not the object definition should be registered with Nagios.
By default, all object definitions are registered. If you are using a
partial object definition as a template, you would want to prevent it
from being registered (an example of this is provided later). Values are
as follows: 0 = do NOT register object definition, 1 = register object
definition (this is the default). __This variable is NOT inherited;
every (partial) object definition used as a template must explicitly set
the register directive to be 0.__ This prevents the need to override an
inherited register directive with a value of 1 for every object that
should be registered.
(emphasis mine)

But I have two more queries- 1) sometimes a machine is rebooted on purpose. I would not like to receive a notification then. Which means I would like Nagios to wait for 15 minutes before sending out an alert. I guess giving max_check_attempts a high value should solve this. But is there any other way? And what should be this value ideally to wait for 15 minutes. For service checks this is pretty straightforward adjusting retry_check_interval and max_check_attempts. You do not want a max_check_attempts set that long for host checks with nagios-2.x or prior. Nagios stops _all_ other processing while hosts are being checked, up to max_check_attempts, so for 15 minutes nagios would do nothing but check that host. Using scheduled downtime is the easiest and preferred way or you could escalations but that gets messier. 2) as I mentioned, I have made settings to get an alert only once. But is it possible to get an alert for all machines once in a week too, say every Monday morning? You'd need to create a custom notification script that contained this logic. Nagios does not have the ability to queue notifications; it'll call the notification script as soon as they're triggered. Your script could take those, store them in a file or database, then send them whenever you chose. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

Re: [Nagios-users] domain hijacking: using Nagios to monitor 100s(possibly 1000s) of domains / hosts
-Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:nagios-users- [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rogelio Bastardo Sent: Tuesday, July 10, 2007 2:54 PM To: Nagios Users mailinglist Subject: [Nagios-users] domain hijacking: using Nagios to monitor 100s(possibly 1000s) of domains / hosts I've got several hundred important domains that need to be checked for domain hijacking. I'm assuming that this is as easy as check_dns -H domain.com -s (nameserver) -A (expected IP) How well will method scale to several thousand? I don't see why it would be a problem. What nameserver are you going to be testing? -A indicates that you'll be checking the nameserver hosting the domain. That won't tell you if your domain has been hijacked though. The DNS server hosting the domain will always answer that it is authoritative, no matter if the rest of the Internet thinks it is or not. Any other nameserver you test will fail since you're requiring Authority. If you're going to test a recursive nameserver, use -a instead. Presumably you're more interested in the nameservers that the rest of the world thinks are authoritative. You'd probably want to use check_dig against a recursive nameserver (or the root servers) to verify that the NS records they're reporting are accurate. Something like check_dig -T ns -H recursiveserver.yourdomain.foo -l yourdomain.foo -a nameserver.yourdomain.foo You should, of course, perform any research necessary to determine if the above tests against the nameservers (particularly the root nameservers) are prohibited before implementing it. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

However, It seems like You can only read info from the Nagios daemon using the NDOUTILS components but not the other way. 2 things, can this be done and if yes how would you go about it NDOUtils is for storing status data in a database only. Currently, there is no way to have nagios read configuration data directly from a database. There are tools available that will store configuration information in a database but they all must export to flat file for nagios use.
