services.conf contains the applied service I pasted in my last email,
and ping6, which I also don't seem to get an rrd-file from.

Are you sure that the apply rules really generate a valid service object
which then gets checked? Ignore the performance data part for now.


The other services are defined directly under the host, for example -
/etc/icinga2/conf.d/hosts/localhost/users.conf :


object Service "users" {
import "generic-service"

host_name = "localhost"
check_command = "users"
vars.sla = "24x7"

action_url = "/pnp4nagios/graph?host=$HOSTNAME$&srv=$SERVICEDESC$'
class='tips' rel='/pnp4nagios/popup?host=$HOSTNAME$&srv=$SERVICEDESC$"
}

That's a service object directly bound to one host, namely 'localhost'.
Given the check_command attribute 'users' provided by the itl plugin
check commands (check the docs for details on parameters) we can assume
that it calls the 'check_users' plugin from the Monitoring Plugins
project which generates performance data by default.



The main difference I can see between services that I do get rrd-files
from, and services I do not get rrd-files from, is that the ones which
do not generate any files are applied per rule using "apply Service"
from the main services.conf file, and the ones that do work are
defined under the host per "object Service". I hope that makes my
issue a bit clearer.

You are still mixing the different possible causes. Services do not
generate rrd files, that's being done by a perfdata processing tool such
as npcd (which ignores invalid performance data).

Even if I repeat myself, but please follow these steps:


It doesn't make sense to debug three different locations for "no graph
is shown"

* Verify which command is being executed given the configuration objects
* Validate the check plugin manually providing the correct performance
data

Only if these points are done, step to npcd/process perfdata. And if
their logs don't tell anything, dive into rrdtool.





- It's still a sample config, and shall be revised/modified by your
own strategy

I fully intend to do that, once I get this issue out of the way. It's
easier to debug with configs which are easily replicated, as anyone
can just grab a copy, or create a vagrant instance with those configs.
BTW - your link returned a "page not found" :(

That's a framework session problem of the Icinga Web 2 doc viewer which
we are using in an early version. The next milestone release will
hopefully fix it and we may upgrade docs.icinga.org.

In your case, that means, opening the link once again in another tab,
now having the session cookie.

Details: https://dev.icinga.org/issues/6730




- Run the plugin manually as Icinga 2 would execute it, and post the
entire output.

Sure - where does icinga2 keep the internal command files, such as
ping4? I haven't found any documantation on that, and there's no path
under /etc/icinga2/features-enabled/command.conf . There's no mention
of ping4 in any other config file.

That's called the ITL provided plugin check commands, and we've added a
complete section for it to the documentation.

http://docs.icinga.org/icinga2/latest/doc/module/icinga2/toc#!/icinga2/latest/doc/module/icinga2/chapter/configuring-icinga2#icinga-template-library
http://docs.icinga.org/icinga2/latest/doc/module/icinga2/toc#!/icinga2/latest/doc/module/icinga2/chapter/configuring-icinga2#plugin-check-commands

The icinga 2 feature called 'command' has nothing to do with that -
that's just the external command pipe. Find an explaination about its
possibilities in the 'monitoring basics' section too.

http://docs.icinga.org/icinga2/latest/doc/module/icinga2/toc#!/icinga2/latest/doc/module/icinga2/chapter/monitoring-basics#external-commands



In addition to me debugging this issue, it would be nice to get some
feedback from other users - Has anyone successfully applied and got
PNP data from an "applied" service in icinga2 ?

I have plenty of ping4 and ping6 services being executed, generating
valid performance data. I only have PNP disabled in my demo setups, I
prefer Graphite in-memory.


I'd be curious on your step-by-step output requested above.

    Hello and thanks for your reply,

    - Can we see the exact configuration?

    Sure, which configuration would you require?
    Icinga/PNP/rrdcached/.. ? Which exact files?
    As I stated in my original post, I used the supplied guide in
    order to get PNP up and running, so all configurations are
    identical to the ones there.

    You said something about a services.conf where services exist
    which do not generate any perfdata and therefore rrd files.


    "pnp only recieves performance data from services which are
    directly configured under the host, but not for services which
    were applied from services.conf ."

    I was curious how they would look like.



    Here's the service configuration, which was included in the .deb
    package from the repo (the only thing added is action_url):

    It's still a sample config, and shall be revised/modified by your
    own strategy. Find more on best practices on the documentation on
    that:

    apply Service "ping4" {
    import "generic-service"

    check_command = "ping4"
    vars.sla = "24x7"

    assign where "linux-servers" in host.groups
    assign where "windows-servers" in host.groups
    ignore where host.address == ""

    action_url =
    "/pnp4nagios/graph?host=$HOSTNAME$&srv=$SERVICEDESC$'
    class='tips'
    rel='/pnp4nagios/popup?host=$HOSTNAME$&srv=$SERVICEDESC$"
    }


    And here's a listing of the perfdata/localhost folder, so you
    could see other services are creating and populating rrd-files:

    "..even though I can see the performance data under "Service

    - Hard to tell with that little details you provided.

    "Please let me know if you require any additional details from my

    I'd remove the wiki guide, and move it to the documentation. I'm
    not very keen on a split mode between the wiki and the docs, as
    happened with 1.x. If you have anything to add to the docs, please
    send a patch to the issue - https://dev.icinga.org/issues/6858

        Hello,

        I set up the latest version (2.0.1) of Icinga2 on an Ubuntu
        14.04 Machine with ClassicUI and pnp4nagios using the
        official repository. Everything seems to be working,
        including my integration with the ClassicUI, accept for one
        issue - pnp only recieves performance data from services
        which are directly configured under the host, but not for
        services which were applied from services.conf .

        Can we see the exact configuration?



        Example - With the supplied test configs, I can see graphs
        for services such as users, procs, and swap, but not for
        ping4 nor ping6, even though I can see the performance data
        under "Service State Information".
        There are also no rrd files created for these services under
        /var/lib/pnp4nagios/perfdata/localhost

        Verify that these check commands and plugins provide valid
        performance data.



        Is it a current limitation/bug, or am I doing something wrong?

        Hard to tell with that little details you provided.


        Please let me know if you require any additional details
        from my end. I followed this guide in order to get pnp up
        and running:
