Hey everyone, First, I'm new, so please be gentle :) I have made some recent modifications to our nagios3 files. In resource.cfg I added the following macros: $db_name$, $db_user_name$, and $db_user_pass$. These seem to be ok. I added a service like this: define service { hostgroup_name mysql-servers service_description Mysql FSRW check_command check_mysql_FSRW use generic-service notification_interval 0 }
And finally I added a command like this: define command { command_name check_mysql_FSRW command_line $USER1$/check_mysql_query -q "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM entry WHERE period<DATE_SUB(now(),INTERVAL 2 DAY) AND status_code<2 AND retries=0 AND type=0" -w0:0 -c10 -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -P 3306 -d $db_name$ -u $db_user_name$ -p $db_user_pass$ } When I have nagios validate everything, it gives no errors. I then restart nagios for the config to take effect, and it comes up. In the event log I see some issues with the service (it appears to be trying to connect to the mysql servers as user nagios, not the specified user). When I then log back into the server and look at my services.cfg file, and my commands.cfg file, the entries I added to both of them have been removed - like they were never there. So, I guess I have a few questions. First, are those entries in the resource.cfg file ok? Does nagios support the underscores and longer names? Its easier to understand at a glance than $USER3$ $USER4$ and $USER5$. Second, does the command_line look ok? I'm trying to figure out why it isn't using the username and password I'm passing to it. Finally, why do the command and service keep disappearing out of my config file? It's making it a pain to troubleshoot. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. -Matty ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EditLive Enterprise is the world's most technically advanced content authoring tool.
