Package: nagios3
Version: 3.0.6-4~lenny2
Severity: important
When a passive check is sent by a remote/distributed server via nsca the
return_code is in the form of a string i.e. "OK/WARNING/CRITICAL/UNKNOWN" but
this results in the central nagios
monitoring server always interpreting the return_code as "OK" in the nagios web
interface, even when it is not (although the plugin output data/'Status
Information' details are correctly
shown in the nagios web-interface). As a result, no notifications are issued
when a passive check returns a warning, failure or unknown status.
The cause of this problem seems to be that the passive check return_code should
be an integer, with values of "0/1/2/3", corresponding to the
"OK/WARNING/CRITICAL/UNKNOWN" string values
that are actually sent.
Using an amended version of the SUBMIT_CHECK_RESULT_VIA_NSCA bash shell script,
which substitutes the appropriate integer value for the supplied string (and
which is invoked to execute
the [/usr/sbin/]send_nsca command that transmits the passive check data to the
central monitoring server) results in the correct 'Status' being displayed in
the central nagios web
interface and the corresponding notifications being issued.
The underlying cause of the problem seems to be inconsistancy between the use
of integer and string return_codes deeper within the nagios logic i.e. the
passive check return_code should be
supplied to the SUBMIT_CHECK_RESULT_VIA_NSCA script as an integer and not as a
string.
