Thanks, That was a nice summary. Maybe it should be added to docs?
I tried to make a file called tjener:/etc/sitesummary/nagiosignore For now it has only one entry; ltspserver00.intern process - dhcpd It is owned by root, but readable to all. That, as I understand it, should make sitesummary to ignore the dhcpd service on ltspserver00? Its supposed to be created on main server (tjener) not ltspserver00? But nothing happens. Still nagios complains about dhcpd on ltspserver00 not running (which is correct by the way, just want to get rid of the warning). Are there any other way to control what entries sitesummary ads to /var/lib/sitesummare/nagios-generated.cfg?

At least > not for me ;) It contain two steps, one is sitesummary gathering information and storing it in /var/lib/sitesummary/entries/, and the next is generating nagios setup and storing it in /var/lib/sitesummary/nagios-generated.cfg. This file is activated by using /etc/nagios3/sitesummary.cfg as the Nagios setup. > If I would like to set a time (work hours) for checking workstations > in the network, thus not getting warnings that they are down, when > they are in fact shut of intentionally, where would that go in this > setup? I'm not quite sure if such fine graded setup is easy to do, but notifications can be adjusted in /etc/nagios3/sitesummary-template-contacts.cfg. > If I want to exclude workstations that are no longer in use, where > would that go? This would be done by removing obsolete entries from /var/lib/sitesummary/entries/. You can use '/usr/lib/sitesummary/agesinceseen-summary -l' to find the entries that did not report in recently. > Can I just add nodes to nagios in a "nagios fashion" in this setup > without breaking anything? (like network-switches, printers and other > things..) Yes. I suspect a good way is to make sure cfg_dir is active in /etc/nagios3/sitesummary.cfg, and add the configuration in /etc/nagios3/conf.d/. Or you can just create a new file and list it in sitesummary.cfg with cfg_file. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
