[Nagios-users] $SERVICENOTIFICATIONID$ - Bug/issue in 3.0.6 ?
Hello, I am attempting to use the $SERVICENOTIFICATIONID$ macro in notifications as part of new auditing initiative. However, in Nagios 3.0.6, it is not behaving as expected. If I trip an alert, I get a notification with the $SERVICENOTIFICATIONID$ included in the body. The next alert to come in (say the recovery) is not incremented by one as I would have expected. I have checked the logs and this was the next notification sent out so it is not as if some other notifications were sent out to other users which I missed. I did see several state changes which would account for the numeric delta but none of those triggered an alert/notification. So, in a way, it appears as if the $SERVICENOTIFICATIONID$ macro is behaving much more like the $SERVICEEVENTID$ macro. Either this is a bug or I am misunderstanding the macro definition or I am doing something incorrectly. Can anyone else confirm either the correct or incorrect behavior in 3.0.6 or explain what I am missing here?

Re: [Nagios-users] Cacti intigrate with nagios
Thanks! I dont want any with thresholds its plain integration thing is that i dont want to login both interface for same problem (monitoring) i need easy administration so i can make happy my client. end user dont know about what is cacti and what is nagios i just want to give them one interface example : www.nagiomonitoring.com so they login into and check host services as well as host graph i am ready to add host on both system nagios and cacti but only watching from single interface i hope you got my idea.. i just want to create URL on nagios hosts for whenever i click on URL it takes me to cacti gharphing cool but not easy..i need your input... Regards, Satish Patel Quoting D. Emmanuel Feinsmith dan...@danielemmanuelfeinsmith.com: Satish, Are you wanting to integrate the thresholds with Nagios, or the graphs, or ? To integrate the thresholds, you need to create a process of some kind that pulls data periodically out of the Cacti threshold database table and submit it as a passive check result to Nagios. If you want to integrate the RRDs into the Nagios UI, you'd basically have to modify the Nagios CGIs, which is probably not a great idea, since from what I hear, they are changing them a great deal in a forthcoming release. You could also create some kind of framework which offers single sign on for both Cacti and Nagios and have a single web console with both Nagios and Cacti on it. Daniel.

Re: [Nagios-users] Cacti intigrate with nagios

Regards, Satish Patel Quoting Max perld...@webwizarddesign.com: Hi Satish, I wrote Cacinda, it is good for integrating the displays of the two, but does nothing to help with host and user management. Sorry. Cacti uses RRD, so does PNP, so I would think you could use RRD files from Cacti with PNP; haven't tried, but I don't see why that wouldn't work. You could set up PNP, copy the files from Cacti into PNP directories and play with making a few templates and if that works then just use PNP to view the historical files from Cacti in one location and use a separate instance for new data. =- Max On Thu, Feb 19, 2009 at 7:17 PM, Satish Patel sat...@linuxbug.org wrote: Thanks! but reason is i am using cacti since last 4 years and there is lots of historical data which i dont want to lost thats why i want to integrate existing cacti with nagios. that why i am looking plugin which help me to do this i have read about cacinda but there is not more document on net so its difficult to work on this if you guy already using this solution so please suggest me i will be happier...

Read up on the notes_url attribute of hosts and services :), you can easily set that up to jump a user from Nagios to PNP or Cacti .. that might be the way to go for you .. have users log into Nagios, then just provide links into Cacti / PNP from Nagios using the notes_url. If Cacti is installed on an Intranet / trusted network, then you can allow the guest user to have read all access so that when users jump from Nagios to Cacti they will not be redirected to the Cacti login page .. that is how I used to integrate the two from an web perspective before I started on Cacinda. Cacinda does provide a unified view but the additional work to maintain yet another piece of software just to have a Cacti/Nagios view might not honestly be worth it for you. - Max -- Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H ___ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null

Re: [Nagios-users] status map
I am doing the same thing but problem is due to number of host my
status map looks ugly
i want it in single base no more scroll and look like good tree
Regards,
Satish Patel
Quoting hw h...@decon230.org:
Hi,
you can try to build your own status map with hostextinfo.
For example
-
#my router
define hostextinfo{
host_name myrouter
notes bla bla
icon_image firewall_router.gif
icon_image_alt myrouter
statusmap_image firewall_router.gd2
vrml_image firewall_router.gif
#x , y coordinates
2d_coords 200,50
}
-
You can even use 3d_coords, as far as I remember.
If you want to have another default map, you have to change
default_statusmap_layout=0
to anything you like.
Regards,
Heiko

Hi Satish,
What kind of a device are the graphs associated with? I have not done
much with this project (as you can tell), especially since I converted
to using PNP, happy to help you with debugging this issue though :).

Hello, I downloaded the nagiosgraph tar from http://nagiosgraph.sf.net/. I extracted the files to /usr/local/nagios and even created a symlink for it. My question is, how do I configure the plug-in?
