Re: [Nagios-users] Problems with Nagios

2006-08-15 Thread Neil Briscoe
Well, its still not working.  I've tried a few invocations.  At the end 
of the ./configure run I get something that looks like :-


 Web Interface Options:
 
 HTML URL:  http://localhost//admin.eninet.com/nagios/
  CGI URL: 
http://localhost//admin.eninet.com/nagios/cgi-bin/
 Traceroute (used by WAP):  /usr/sbin/traceroute
 
Ideally - I'd like to get rid of that localhost.  Is there anyway I can 
do that?

The reason for this is that we run several web sites on this server - 
and admin.eninet.com is what we enter into the browser.

Re: [Nagios-users] How to get stdout from event handlers into Nagios email messages?

2006-08-15 Thread Mark Eisenblaetter
Hi,

you can save the outut in a file an write a script that search the
file for new output.
Start this script before sending the mail an if there is new output
for the special service appent it to the message.

 Hi, I'm running Nagios 2.5 and my question is: is there any way
 to capture the stdout of an event handler and get it into the email
 Nagios sends out?

 Right now I'm working with check_smtp and an event handler that
 runs via ssh and restarts sendmail on a system if it dies.  The check
 and handler both work, and I get two email notices.  The first CRITICAL
 when sendmail is found to be dead, and then a 2nd saying it's OK after
 the handler fires and restarts sendmail.

 What I wanted to see was the output of the handler included at
 the end of the CRITICAL notice.  The sample handler scripts seem to
 include output, but how can you see that other than in a log?

 I thought about making the handler itself send email that it's
 been run, but then I have to have every host able to send mail or ssh to
 a host that can send mail.  That would work in this example since it's
 sendmail I'm working with but my real checks will not be for sendmail
 nor on hosts that are email enabled nor that I want to have any sort of
 ssh access back into my network.

 --with-nagios-group=nagios --with-command-group=www-data

Actually, when I ran with that specific command line - of course it just 
showed localhost://nagios/cgi-bin and localhost://nagios - I install the 
result of that one - it didn't work.

Thats why I tried specifying the specific virtual host under which we 
want to run it - and thats not working either.

Is there anyway I can get rid of the localhost from the output of 
./configure?

Re: [Nagios-users] Problems with Nagios

2006-08-15 Thread Neil Briscoe
Hi Giles

 Specify your hostname in apache, not nagios. 
 

Infact, I've just done exactly that.  I've put all the Nagios 
configuration in the virtual server stanza and removed anything from the 
global area.  Low and behold - I now have my pages back - but they're 
still not showing the colourations I should be getting.

Clicking on the statusmap.cgi page - I get an internal server error - 
whereupon it can't find libpng.so.0 - yet the file exists in 
/usr/local/lib.

So now its an Apache problem I think.  Time to go and Google again.

Regards
Neil

2006-08-15 Thread Neil Briscoe
 Is /usr/local/lib in your /etc/ld.so.conf ?
 

It wasn't.  It is now.

 What does ldconfig -v | grep libpng give you?

Well, now it lists out the library and the symbolic links.

Further more - the statusmap.cgi now gives me a picture.  Somethings 
still broken - but it must be one of the dependent libs - because I'm 
suffering broken images in some places.  But I think I can track down 
the rest now.  May well need to recompile everything once more now 
you've given me the pointer to fix the ld.so.conf.

Many thanks.

Neil

Well, for one I'd move most of these lines into a template at the top  
of the file :) That way you can decrease the length of your config  
file by at least 60%

Oh, and you're missing the hostname definition for your service check :)

It looks like your RTA threshold is set to 100 mS.  Check it in
your services.cfg file or checkcommands.cfg file.  Increase it as
appropriate (hosts external to your own LAN should have longer RTA
settings than internal LAN hosts).

It can be either packet loss % or response time (or both) depending on
your configuration, but judging from the alerts I'd say it's response
time.

See check_ping -h

[Nagios-users] Daily status report?

2006-08-15 Thread Marc Belanger
Greetings,I have nagios 2.x installed on Solaris 10 monitoring ~100 hosts, and ~1000 services. I am collecting perfdata, As the admin/engineer, I'm quite happy with the http interface for checking the status of systems and knowing what needs to get fixed/looked at. I installed/configured nagios originally for my benefit anyways, as part of a data center lights out effort.
The problem: Management saw the website (I blame myself, screensaver is my new best friend). We all know what happens when suits get involved... yes, they want a daily report. Apparently clicking on a link, and logging into a website is too much work.
My first solution:Heh, I'd snap a screen print of a custom report, and mail it. Life was good, until I went on vacation.My second solution:Google, google, google. I'm surprised that I still cannot snap a txt formatted host up/down for 'report period' (in my case 7am-5pm defined in the cfg's) without using cacti, rrdtool, or any other add-ons.
My third solution:I'm giving in to rrdtool (I think). It seems like a lot more work than I want to invest, but I can perl/shell script it and crontab it, so the suits get thier daily eye candy, and I can go back on vacation.
My questions:- Is there a better way I haven't thought of, or found?- Is there an EASIER way I haven't thought of, or found?- HALP!- Any off the cuff suggestions? Aside from screensavers.Thanks much in advance,

This works quite well. There was a bug last week in the 1.3.1 version,
but he sorted that out rather quickly.

What I did was create three small scripts to fire this plugin up. One
sends a daily and overnight, the other sends a weekly report, and the
last sends a monthly report.

Basically it takes the report from the web based reports tools, and
sticks it in an e-mail as HTML.

If the suits want a nice report for overnight, daily, weekly, and
monthly, I'd look into this.

Set it up once, link some scripts to run across cron or whatever, and
you'd be good.

[Nagios-users] creating global graph link, missing wildcard option for service_description

2006-08-15 Thread Justin Albstmeijer
Hi,

I'm trying to create a host and service link pointing to the graph output.
For hostextinfo a wildcard definition works fine, creating a link for
all hosts, pointing to all graphs for the host.

-
define hostextinfo {
   host_name   *
   notes_url  /graph/show.php?search=$HOSTNAME$
 }
-

I don't seem to have the same option for serviceextinfo, as
service_description does not allow the usage of the * wildcard.
Any way to accomplish this without having to define this for each service?

-
define serviceextinfo {
   host_name  *
   service_description  *
   notes_url  /graph/show.php?search=$HOSTNAME$ - $SERVICEDESC$
}
-

Thanx in advance for any suggestion.

[Nagios-users] Does anybody successfully use multiple command mode of check_by_ssh

2006-08-15 Thread John P. Rouillard
Hi all:

Just wondering if anybody has had any luck using the multiple command
mode of ssh. I think it is just broken, but I would like to be
convinced otherwise. I never see it executing anything but the primary
plugin, nor does it write to the file specified with -O.

E.G.

 /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_by_ssh -H localhost -n concord -s c1:c2:c3 \
-C 'check_disk /' -C 'check_disk /usr' -C 'check_disk /var' -O /tmp/a

reports: 

  DISK OK - free space: / 5372 MB (90% inode=98%);| /=581MB;5953;5953;98;5953

but puts nothing in /tmp/a which is writable to the nagios
users. (it's mode 777).

Re: [Nagios-users] Daily status report?

2006-08-15 Thread Robert Arends
We needed an 8:30am daily email/pager message that gave a quick
synopsis.

So I wrote some perl to use a Nagios tool called nagiostats and email
the results nicely formatted.

nagiostats -m
--data=NUMHSTUP,NUMHSTDOWN,NUMHSTUNR,NUMSVCOK,NUMSVCCRIT,NUMSVCUNKN

CODE
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
my $options =
'NUMHSTUP,NUMHSTDOWN,NUMHSTUNR,NUMSVCOK,NUMSVCCRIT,NUMSVCUNKN';
my $command = nagiostats -m --data=$options;

my @result = `$command`;
chop(@result);

/CODE

So now the results are in an array $result, put the following into a
print(), or an email routine, etc to send it to the suits.

EXAMPLE Variables
HOSTS:
Down:$result[1]
UnReachable:$result[2]
Up:$result[0]

SERVICES:
Critical:$result[4]
UnReachable:$result[5]
Up:$result[3]

/EXAMPLE Variables

I run the program at 8:30 am every day.  For us it is used by the
monitoring staff, but you could use it for suits.

You could just use shell script and 'nagiostats' with out the -m, and
GREP out the lines you want and pipe in to mail.

Rob :-)

does the -v flag to check_smtp  do what you are asking? I am not 100% clear on your needs here.

Re: [Nagios-users] cpu temperature

2006-08-15 Thread Tedman Eng
This is specific to the software agent in question.  If the temperature can
be queried via commandline, then Nagios can monitor it.  Most administrators
use snmp where available, or use a CLI interface when SNMP is not available.

Re: [Nagios-users] How to get stdout from event handlers into Nagiosemail messages?

2006-08-15 Thread Steve Shipway
   Hi, I'm running Nagios 2.5 and my question is: is there 
 any way to capture the stdout of an event handler and get it 
 into the email Nagios sends out?

If you think about it, this must be impossible.

Since the event handler is called at the same time as the notifications,
the output (if any) is not avaiable when the notifications are queued as
the event handler has not yet run.

The only way I can see to do this is to code an email sender into your
event handler script.

You could fudge it by creating a dummy service for the same host that
uses freshness to immediately reset to OK and has a count of 1, and then
have your event handler send a passive alert (containing the output
text) to this service.  The dummy service (which has the same contacts
as the main service) then sends out a separate alert to the contacts
with this information.  You could probably even create a generic
eventhandler wrapper script to do this.

Steve
