Re: [Nagios-users] analog nagios transmitter
Take a look at the Nagios Ampel Project http://www.smekal.at/code/NAmpel/ Bo Larsen -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of dave stern - e-mail.pluribus.unum Sent: 28. maj 2008 17:33 To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] analog nagios transmitter Anyone know of a dirt-simple analog device that can take ANY red status's from nagios and transmit the signal to some visible device? Details: We have a medium nagios install on a closed network and wish to have it transmit a "something is wrong" message to some device not on the network. We are further constrained by what kind of a signal it can be so it must be just a 1 or 0. 1 Lights up a red light indicating we need to go to another building and look at nagios ie ANY host/service is down should trigger this.

I will test my setup in the next days, how it's behaviour is, if i send some long input with NSCA to the NSCA-Daemon on nagios server at the same time. best regards Thomas - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Hi Marc, I have a simila requirement here. As i refer before, i have change the two values in common.h (NSCA) and nagios.h (Nagios) to synchronize the MAX_INPUT Buffers to 7168 Byte. Then I recompiled all NSCA-Versions (Linux and Windows), Nagios and wrote my own plugins for some checks which produce one output line like: check test OK = host ahost bhost chost d The Nagios-GUI interpret the HTML-Tag and show your multiple lines if the corresponding switch in cgi.cfg is set. (escape_html=0) In my case are round about 15 lines possible. best regards Thomas - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

For example, I use mutt (in mailx mode) in a notification command, something like: > /usr/bin/printf "$MACROS_YOU_WANT_IN_THE_MESSAGE_BODY" |/usr/bin/mutt -x -s > "$MACROS_YOU_WANT_IN_THE_SUBJECT" $CONTACTEMAIL ...and then in a .muttrc for the nagios user, add a 'set from=' to match the pretty name of the user from whom I want the mail to appear to have originated. The bonus with this arrangement is that it gives me the opportunity to tweak additional settings on mail notifications, for example to set custom headers, inside .muttrc: > set hdrs > my_hdr X-Nagios: alert > my_hdr X-Priority: 1 ...etc. Depending on what you're actually shooting for, you may also need to make some adjustments to the local MTA configuration, but if your goal is to change the superficial appearance of the mail, the above might be sufficient. > run nagios as a different user ...how would that solve your problem? > are there any different options?

A value of 4096 will likely work well in Linux as pipes guarantee that this many bytes can be written at once in that OS. POSIX requires 512 bytes so this may vary between operating systems (PIPE_BUF should tell you what the limit is). Anything larger will likely cause fragments to be lost and/or interleaved (the latter can happen if you have multiple writers at the same time). See pipe(7) for more details. The proper fix would bu using PROCESS_FILE instead to load long output.

That will pretty much eliminate common problems. You're essentially asking us to make wild guesses based on no information and keep trying when they're wrong. It's a waste of time for all of us.

[Nagios-users] nagiosgraph plot no data, only "nan"
I have nagiosgraph set up on nagios. The plotting is working on services for local system, but not on the remote systems' services. Here is the nagiosgraph debug log for a service "biwofe_CPU". All values are "nan" since yesterday. I did many tries, at one time it showed only one data set plot. no continuous data were generated and plotted. I removed all files in rrd directory and restarted the nagios service. From the log I couldn't tell where could be the problem.

AFAIK, you're in uncharted territory. Based on what I've seen, the longer output support has only really been applied to active commands but the documentation does indicate that support for passive results is there. NSCA hasn't been updated to handle multi-line output as you've seen nor have I seen any talk that it's coming soon. I also expect that you might see problems using the normal mechanism of writing the check results to the external command _pipe_ due to OS size limitations there (~1K typically). I expect that would only be a problem with large data returns (nagios internally supports $OUTPUT$ + $LONGOUTPUT$ of about ~4K). At this point I think you're going to have to roll your own check result return mechanism that either writes appropriately sized commands to the external pipe or larger ones to a file and uses the external command PROCESS_FILE to reap the results. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Re: [Nagios-users] NSCA and long output
What I'm really trying to get is multi-line output. Nagios/NRPE supports this (v3.x) e.g.: TEXT OUTPUT | OPTIONAL PERFDATA LONG TEXT LINE 1 LONG TEXT LINE 2 This works for NRPE, but not with NSCA, since NSCA can only take a single line as an argument. What I'm trying to achieve is sending process monitoring data back passively like so: PROCS OK: Proc1: 3 processes running Proc2: 1 process running Proc3: 1 process running Any ideas? -Aaron Aaron Mills Systems Administrator Return Path, Inc. http://www.returnpath.net [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: Mike Hamrick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] NSCA and long output To: Nagios Users Mailinglist Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed; delsp=yes Hi Aaron, You wrote: > I've been trying to figure out if this is possible for a while.

Looking at the NSCA sources, common.h has: #define MAX_PLUGINOUTPUT_LENGTH 512 I'm guessing that's the issue right there. The first thing I'd try is to bump that up to 4096, and recompile send_nsca and nsca. I haven't looked very carefully at the source or tried this myself, but it seems like a good place to start.

[Nagios-users] analog nagios transmitter
Anyone know of a dirt-simple analog device that can take ANY red status's from nagios and transmit the signal to some visible device? Details: We have a medium nagios install on a closed network and wish to have it transmit a "something is wrong" message to some device not on the network. We are further constrained by what kind of a signal it can be so it must be just a 1 or 0. 1 Lights up a red light indicating we need to go to another building and look at nagios ie ANY host/service is down should trigger this.

Thanks a lot Andreas - this was exactly the reason.

[Nagios-users] Easier way to make nagios send mail as different user?
The two ways I've come up with to make nagios send notifications as a different user are: Write a wrapper which allows mail to be sent with normal headers or run nagios as a different user, are there any different options? The mail command in linux/unix appears to be a little bit limited without a parameter to specify the from address. Any advice? -Drew - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

[Nagios-users] Massive HOST UP alerts in nagios.log for no reason
Hi all, ever since I started building up our new nagios environment under nagios 3.0, I noticed that my logfile contains massive amounts of HOST UP alerts - even though the host was never down before. Actually I seem to have this log entry each time a host is checked, I guess they get checked for the predictive and cache host tests. But sadly it's getting a real pain, since the logfile is growing so big, that my firefox even crashes when I try to view it with the webinterface. My daily nagios.log has the massive amount of roundabout 110.000 entries each day - which is little bit too much for its 400 hosts / 1600 services imho. Nearly the same checks (actually a few less, but whatever) produce roundabout 10.000 lines of log on our nagios 2.11 server each day. The culprit seems to be: [EMAIL PROTECTED] archives]# egrep "HOST ALERT:.*UP;HARD" nagios-05-28-2008-00.log | wc -l 97716 So I have 97716 entries each day looking like: [1211844162] HOST ALERT: sw-00-o2;UP;HARD;1;OK - 1.2.3.4: rta 1,069ms, lost 0% with the hostname of course being always different - every host comes up every minute.

I personally prefer assigning the hostgroups from the host definition, using the "hostgroups" variable. You can also put it in a template is you already have one per hostgroup, which will avoid having to repeat that line for each host in the hostgroup.

[Nagios-users] VMWare Infrastructure monitoring
Hi all, I've recently spent some time again on thinking about our VMWare Infrastructure (ESX clusters) and its monitoring. I'd like to hear some opinions from the list, how others implemented the monitoring. Currently my setup is as follows: - 3 ESX clusters with 6 hosts each - 100 VMs per cluster My current approach: The first cluster for example is defined as host "essesx-cluster" with 6 services ESX01, ESX02, ESX03. Those services are check_icmp checks on the IP of the service console of each ESX host. The hostcheck of the "essesx-cluster" host is then: check_cluster --service -w 1 -c 1 -d $SERVICESTATEID:essesx-cluster:ESX01$, $SERVICESTATEID:essesx-cluster:ESX02$,$SERVICESTATEID:essesx-cluster:ESX03$, $SERVICESTATEID:essesx-cluster:ESX04$,$SERVICESTATEID:essesx-cluster:ESX05$, $SERVICESTATEID:essesx-cluster:ESX06$ All VMs are childs of their corresponding cluster host. The ESX hosts itself are not monitored as hosts, just as services of the cluster. What do you think about that approach? Is it sophisticated or rather dumb? I have to admit that I am a bit clueless right now, as it looks quite weird. Does anyone see any problems with that appoach? /discuss regards Sascha -- Sascha Runschke Netzwerk- und Systemmanagement Telefon : +49 (201) 102-1879 Mobil : +49 (173) 5419665 Fax : +49 (201) 102-1102105 GFKL Financial Services AG Vorstand: Dr. Peter Jänsch (Vors.), Jürgen Baltes, Dr. Till Ergenzinger, Dr. Tom Haverkamp Vorsitzender des Aufsichtsrats: Dr. Georg F.

It should, but if spaces are allowed as parts of object identifiers,
they must still be disallowed at the start and end of such identifiers,
or there will be no sane way to separate variables from values (unless
we force tabs there, which will break a lot of people's configurations).

I figured something like that. My boss insists that there must be something out there as there must be other companies with the same problem. That might be true, but it is likely that other companies saw that there was nothing and built their own solution, but never made it available publically. Using the GUI to record a downtime is much easier than what we do now. Even if it is in the past, it still appears in nagios.log and grepping for SCHEDULE_SVC_DOWNTIME for the given host/service pair is pretty straightforward. Perhaps the "long term" solution would be to change the code (commands.c???) so that each time a downtime is entered it is stored in a DB table at the same time it is written to the command file. At that point all of the checks have been done and all we should need to do is parse the output line and do a DB insert. I am curious what you use for the actual reporting. Does the "DB interogation script" simply pull the data out of the DB or does it do any reformating? We have been looking at using Crystal Reports, but we currently still have the problem with the outages, but if we figure out how to get it into the DB we should be OK.

I figured something like that. My boss insists that there must be something out there as there must be other companies with the same problem. That might be true, but it is likely that other companies saw that there was nothing and built their own solution, but never made it available publically. Using the GUI to record a downtime is much easier than what we do now. Even if it is in the past, it still appears in nagios.log and grepping for SCHEDULE_SVC_DOWNTIME for the given host/service pair is pretty straightforward. Perhaps the "long term" solution would be to change the code (commands.c???) so that each time a downtime is entered it is stored in a DB table at the same time it is written to the command file. At that point all of the checks have been done and all we should need to do is parse the output line and do a DB insert. I am curious what you use for the actual reporting. Does the "DB interogation script" simply pull the data out of the DB or does it do any reformating? We have been looking at using Crystal Reports, but we currently still have the problem with the outages, but if we figure out how to get it into the DB we should be OK.

But you have to check the value in nagios source code (include/nagios.h) too. It muste be at least the same or higher. Thomas - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
