Re: [Nagios-users] Weird Nagios Problem

Martin, I've always used NRPE to run check_load remotely. If you use SNMP, you can also write a custom plugin to gather the values that way. There might be a plugin that someone else has written, too. Jeffrey. On Tue, Dec 4, 2012 at 8:33 AM, Martin Hugo martin_h...@hboe.org wrote: You are

[Nagios-users] Service dependency help

Hello, I'm having some trouble getting a service dependency working and I was hoping for some help. I've read the section in Wolfgang Barth's book Nagios 2nd Edition and googled around a bit, but something's still not working right. I'm using Nagios 3.0.6. Specifically, I want to set it up so

Re: [Nagios-users] question about check_disk

You have it backwards. 'df' says 24% used, not remaining. 'check_disk' shows how much is remaining (76% and 99% in this case). I've never liked how check_disk displays its results by default, most Unix tools show as a primary metric how much of a resource is used and not how much is remaining.

Re: [Nagios-users] disk checks unreliable

The check is working correctly - /mnt/store is a valid path in both circumstances. Remember, in Unix mounted filesystems all sit on top of the / filesystem, so when you umount the filesystem on /mnt/store, that mountpoint still exists (on /). The way I've done it in the past is by using -r/-R to

Re: [Nagios-users] Distributed Nagios Configuration with Passive Checks

If I understand you correctly, are you trying to have your master server accept passive checks from other Nagios servers and check services and servers itself? If so, what I think would be easier (and is the method recommended by the docs) would be to just set up a second Nagios server (or

I think you misunderstand. Those two plugins return WARNING or CRITICAL if one of the two things occur: 1) If the ciscoEnvMonTemperatureState is not normal. 2) If the passed -w and -c values are less than ciscoEnvMonTemperatureStatusValue. What I'm asking is why #2 is _required_. I can

Re: [Nagios-users] Notification criteria

Nagios notifies on HARD states (or flapping, which is another matter). It's generally assumed that people don't want to be notified every time there's a failed check - they want to be notified after it's failed a certain number of times. A SOFT state is a state where non-OK checks have occurred
