[Nagios-users] too many Notifications
Hi, I know already a lot has been discussed on the notifications topic but I am sorry I still want to ask this. I would like to receive only one notification when a host goes down and one when it comes up, even if there maybe a gap of days in between. I have read about the concept of escalations but I am not sure if it will solve the purpose. Can you please suggest me how we can do this. Thank you in advance. Lalita.

Hi Lev, As I understand, is it right that if I make notification_interval as 0 that will generate only 1 mail every time the state changes. I could keep notification_options as d,u,r.

Re: [Nagios-users] too many Notifications
I guess setting notification-interval to 0 should solve my issue. But I have two more queries- 1) sometimes a machine is rebooted on purpose. I would not like to receive a notification then. Which means I would like Nagios to wait for 15 minutes before sending out an alert. I guess giving max_check_attempts a high value should solve this. But is there any other way? And what should be this value ideally to wait for 15 minutes. 2) as I mentioned, I have made settings to get an alert only once. But is it possible to get an alert for all machines once in a week too, say every Monday morning? Thank you very much for all your help.

[Nagios-users] FW: Monitoring AJAX applications
(sorry, this time in plain text) Hi I have a website with an AJAX application in it, and I want to check if the application is working. This means using the application: selecting certain options, proceding to the second step, making some choices there and then proceding to the third step. (possibly: the options change over time) I can use the standard check_http to check the app is there, but not any of the next steps. I've looked at webinject, but I can't see a way to use that. A search at nagiosexchange shows some apps using AJAX technology, but nothing to monitor it. Has anyone got experience monitoring AJAX apps, or can someone give some hints how to perform the checks?

You do not want a max_check_attempts set that long for host checks with nagios-2.x or prior. Nagios stops _all_ other processing while hosts are being checked, up to max_check_attempts, so for 15 minutes nagios would do nothing but check that host.

But is it possible to get an alert for all machines once in a week too, say every Monday morning? You'd need to create a custom notification script that contained this logic. Nagios does not have the ability to queue notifications; it'll call the notification script as soon as they're triggered. Your script could take those, store them in a file or database, then send them whenever you chose. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

[Nagios-users] Host key verification for check_by_ssh not working properly
It's been some time since i've had to configure this plugin, so i may be doing it improperly. Now one of the command that nagios will run looks like this: define command{ command_namecheck_slash_free command_line $USER1$/check_by_ssh -i /var/ssh/nagios-key -l nagios -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C '$USER1$/check_disk -w $\ARG1$ -c $ARG2$ -p /' } So i've created an rsa key pair and placed it in some arbitrary directory and i've changed the ownership and permissions so that my nagios user owns and is the only user permitted to use the nagios-key. On the host machine i've placed the public key in the nagios user */.ssh/authorized_keys file. Now switching to my nagios user on the central server i can ssh into the host machine all under the nagios user with no problem, but when nagios tries it via check_by_ssh i get this: CURRENT SERVICE STATE: $HOSTADDRESS$.local;SSH Disk Check;UNKNOWN;HARD;4;Remote command execution failed: Host key verification failed. where the hostaddress is the host machine i'm trying to ssh into. I've also tried this using root as the user to avoid any permissions complications but i still recieve the same error. Any help would be great, thanks! - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML. No limits. Just data.

When you SSH into the server from the command line, make sure you do it using the exact same address Nagios uses (i.e., if you're going in by HOSTADDRESS in Nagios, don't use a DNS name on the command line), and that you're doing it as the user Nagios runs under. An entry needs to be in the Nagios user's known_hosts that exactly matches the address Nagios is using to get to the machine. - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
