[Nagios-users] Log monitoring with Nagios - recommendations?

2007-08-29 Thread Risto Vaarandi
hi all, few weeks ago I posted a question to this list about passive service checks - I was actually experimenting with Nagios as an event log monitoring GUI. I am tracking event logs with SEC and also sending out alerts with it, but I would still like to see correlated log messages in Nagios

Thanks very much for the response, Doug. Looks pretty nice. Have you tied nagios pages into this at all? Do you see any problems with the idea that might be showstoppers? What I'm hoping to do is: - Every host I care about is in nagios -- I'd like to use the notes_url page to maintain

I have not done this before, but also haven't really thought to do this either. It sounds like an interesting idea though. I don't really foresee anything that would make it not work as you expect other than the tedious task of populating the data. But, once you have one host done, you could

All, I have been asked by my uppers to implement 'notification backoff' for Nagios monitoring. I.e. when a service goes HARD non-OK, the first notice is sent out, then the next after 30 minutes. After that, the next notice is sent in an hour. The next, in two. The next, in 4... up to daily

My guess would be a broken shell-script that you use as a plugin. Nagios runs plugins by using the popen(3) call, which uses sh -c to interpret and execute the given command. Thanks Andreas, that appears to have resolved one of the issues. Nagios starts with out errors now. But, it doesn't
