[Nagios-users] About Event Broker and Nagios Administration
Hello, I was reading about Nagios Event Broker (NEB), and there seems to be modules like ndoutils or nagios-db that update a MySQL database with Nagios configuration and event logs data. If I understand this correctly, this means that the NEB module can send data from Nagios to other Applications (a Data Base in this case). Am I right ? I have another question: Is it possible for other Applications to send data to Nagios using Event Broker ? for example, Will it be possible to configure Nagios using MySQL Tables and then inform to NEB module to apply changes on nagios configuration ? or to change the state of a service ? Thanks in Advance, Alejandro. --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.

[Nagios-users] Problems with HTTP-Authorization/Authentication
Hello. I have set up a new server with Nagios 2.0 and Apache 2. Both are running, CGI and authorization are set up. When I access the web-interface I have been asked for authentication. I can enter user and password and get access, but nagios tells me always Logged in as ?. So I cannot see anything. In the apache-log-files I can see, that I logged in successfully, but it seems, that nagios didn't get these information. Of cause, in cgi.cfg use_authentication=1 is set, I have put a .htaccess file into /usr/local/nagios/share with the following content: AuthName Nagios Access AuthType Basic AuthUserFile /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users require valid-user The file /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users has been created with htpasswd2 and the users are in contacts.cfg If I enter a wrong user and/or password at the login I get an error message and if I cancel the login I get Authentication required! So far everything works as expected, except the nagios didn't recognize me :-( I've set up nagios (1.x) more than once, so I think I can handle that... BTW: the server runs SuSE Linux 10.0 with an apache2 from the distribution, nagios is compiled by myself from the tarball. Please, can someone help me to find the problem?

RE: [Nagios-users] performance data reporting
Florian, I have this working in my environment. I followed the instructions that came with NDO, and it was pretty straight forward. I had it up and running within a few minutes.

[Nagios-users] False Alarms in Nagios
I have been getting some false alarms (pages) between 4am and 4:30am for certain hosts and services on my network. We are running cron jobs around this time for backups and a few other things which are causing these checks to fail during this time. This doesn't happen all the time but on occassion. Anyway, what is the best way to avoid these false alarms during this time frame but still keep those checks active? Thanks in advance. : )

Set your time periods http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/xodtemplate.html#timeperiod 3. Set your service check timeout http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/configmain.html#service_check_timeout 4. Set your individual plugin timeouts 5. Increase your max check attempts http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/xodtemplate.html#service Hope that helps. --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.

[Nagios-users] check_procs - exclude processes
Hello all! Is it posible to exclude processes in the check_procs? I want to monitor all my linux nodes for: check_procs -w 7 -c 15 --metric=CPU check_procs -w 5000 -c 1 --metric=VSZ But I want to exlude some processes (httpd and mysql). The reason for this setup is I want to create a baseline monitor to checks all linux hosts after suspicious processes. On the hostgroup db and web i uses diffrent checks to see if mysql/apache is behaving good. Is it posible or should I use another plugin (which in that case?) //Robban This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.

[Nagios-users] Host Uptime
Title: Host Uptime Okidoki. So, I created a simple command using 'check_host_alive', and the check is showing me the host is up/alive. So far so good. I'm using a test server. I rebooted the test server, but Nagios told me that the server was up during the whole reboot process. I never received a change in status that the server was down during the reboot. Pun intended ... what's up with that ? Why didn't Nagios tell me that the host was down ? Thanks, Jay.
