Re: [Nagios-users-br] Monitorar processos
Fala Daniel, tudo beleza?

[Nagios-users-br] duvida nagios
Olá,
Alguém sabe me dizer, P.F, se é passível criar um serviço que diz quais
os processos que estão a correr num determinado momento? Pediram para
ver isso, já fui no ficheiro de configuração já defeni um novo serviço:
define service{
use local-service ; Name of
service template to use
host_name saf...@meteo.pt
mailto:saf...@meteo.pt
service_description Processes ON
check_command check_processes_on!250!400!RSZDT
}
E no ficheiro command.cgf defeni o comando :
define command{
command_namecheck_processes_on
command_line$USER1$/check_procs -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$ -s $ARG3$
}
mas não acontece nada. Na pagina do nagios não aparece na lista dos
serviços, tais como o PING, HTTP, SSH, etc.
E já agora mais uma dúvida - adicionei uns hosts e os respectivos
serviços, mas não me aparecem quando eu clico no Service Detail. Só
aparecem no Host Detail
Cumprimentos, Benvinda

In this case check_nt is the hammer. Nagios is just the carpenter, and it can use hammers, cars, TV's, screwdrivers, beer and carpet slippers just fine ;-) I should look into NCNet.

Climbing this learning curve causes massive frustration, but once success happens there's a huge release of satisfaction and self-accomplishment. I personally am enjoying the trip and experience. Yesterday, after feeling comfortable getting Nagios to talk to servers on my local network for checking the obvious services running on them - linux and windows servers - like IIS, Apache, SMTP and the like I started working on getting my workstation to talk to the Nagios server via the NSClient++ package. This is going to be yet another challenge and one I fully accept. Let me tell you, for me the harder something is the more tenacious I become and refuse to let go until I master it. That being said the documentation which comes with Nagios seriously sucks until you begin to get on to the Nagios way of doing things. Over the last week I have googled more than I have in the last 5 years getting my test-bed nagios system going. I have literally googled my brains out. At the moment I'm somewhat at a loss to know whether I've worked harder googling for information or actually getting to know the Nagios way and making things work! I'm leaning towards Googling... So for you to curtly suggest that all can easily be found googling as an answer to this question is, well... just too easy. Either you don't actually know or you don't feel like telling. I totally understand though because I suspect you yourself have worked very hard getting to know and work with Nagios and have put quite a bit of time into the gaining the experience you now possess, but throwing us noobs a bone isn't really asking too much is it? Bone == link to information slap in one's face == go google it... Yeah... we can find the stuff we need by googling for it, but wouldn't it be nice if the documentation were a lot more robust and contained in a wiki somewhere? I have yet to find one for Nagios. In fact most of the sites I've found for Nagios waste my time. Which is pretty much what suggesting someone google for something does. They're hoping for, at the very least a kick in the ass in the right direction but get sent back to the place of frustration - Google! The trick to googling is knowing the right question to ask and after you've been spending hours trying to suss out something that is vexing one's soul that becomes an exercise in futility. (I'm ranting, but I don't mean it in an accusatory tone.) As I said, I do understand that you and others have invested a great deal of time and effort into learning Nagios and how to work it, but if you don't want to share whats locked away in your brains then why even respond to the post? If I've offended I do apologize, but as an experience network admin and a Nagios noob I know the value of my time and yours and others searching for the information that would hopfully unlock the doors currently barring them from reaching the next milestone or goal. I appreciated your metaphore of a hammer and a car; the fact that it can't be done with check_nt was informative, but then you lost me when you said just google it. Google What for pete's sake? (after a long day of wrestling with the beast that could mean google for anything ranging from the best recipe for blueberry pancakes to the ingredient to a fusion device!) Frankly, if I knew more about Nagios and the intimacies thereof, I would gladly host a wiki for it on one my web servers, but alas I'm a noob. my one burning question: Why the hell isn't there a wiki for Nagios, and if there is where the bloody hell is it?

Heh, the learning curve is not nearly so steep as say Slackware back in those days... Nagios is a lot like linux though; it's just a base platform. How you implement it, what you monitor with it and how you do so is going to greatly depend on what you want to get out of it and your environment. While there is a lot of commonality between users, there's also a lot of difference and flexibility to monitor things any way you like. If it can be run from the command line, it can be turned into a plugin generally. That being said the documentation which comes with Nagios seriously sucks until you begin to get on to the Nagios way of doing things. ... one of the reasons I recommend reading the documentation, then the sample config files, then the documentation again. IMHO, the documentation is actually very good and covers most common concepts and scenarios, either very specifically or generally. ~90% of the time I respond to a question, I'm looking at the documentation that answers it. So for you to curtly suggest that all can easily be found googling as an answer to this question is, well... just too easy. Either you don't actually know or you don't feel like telling.

Bone == link to information slap in one's face == go google it... I don't think that expecting you to figure out that you should google for 'nagios wmi' is too much to expect, since that was your goal and what he pointed you to do. In your question, you made an assumption about a tool (check_nt) that was incorrect. The documentation for that tool would have told you it was incorrect by omission but he pointed it out and told you there were other tools available that might do what you need. There are *many* nagios plugins available created by many people. It's not possible to know them all or where they are located, hence the google recommendation. He can not be expected to do that kind of research for you in the same way that a kernel developer can't be expected to tell you which web server to install and how to use it. Yeah... we can find the stuff we need by googling for it, but wouldn't it be nice if the documentation were a lot more robust and contained in a wiki somewhere? I have yet to find one for Nagios. There's one linked directly from the Documentation page at http://www.nagios.org . http://www.nagiosexchange.org is another, somewhat different but well known community site. As I said, I do understand that you and others have invested a great deal of time and effort into learning Nagios and how to work it, but if you don't want to share whats locked away in your brains then why even respond to the post? Because posters and responders have unknown levels of knowledge? He provided information based on an expectation that you have a higher level of knowledge. That information would have been quite sufficient for many people. You have two possible paths in a case like that, you either try to figure out what he means or you ignore it and wait for someone else to answer at a level you understand. If you get no further answers that either indicates most people think it's sufficient, you didn't ask the right question or you didn't give the right information. If you're fortunate, you may even have people tell you that. He answered in a manner that is comfortable to him and meets his expectations of the questioner. We're all self-taught nagios users; if we can do it, so can you.

Re: [Nagios-users] WMI's
Mark, thanks for keeping the tone very much to the point and trying hard yourself. Very few people do this, so the bones we throw on this list are generally on the assumption that people haven't. Mark Weaver wrote: Andreas Ericsson wrote: Martyn wrote: How do I add the windows credentials. check_nt -H 192.168.1.1 -p 1248 -v INSTANCES -l Process If I run the above it will give me a refused connection, where in the above line would I add the username and password of the Windows box I want to connect to? You're holding a hammer and want someone to explain to you how to use it as a car. It can't be done with check_nt, but there are other programs out there that can ask questions over WMI, and you already know of some of them. Google should hold plenty of other resources if installing nsclient, NCNet or nsclient++ is not an option for you, although some programming may be necessary on your part. A clarification will be necessary here, I feel. You mentioned a few apps in your original post which utilizes WMI to access windows boxes, so I obviously figured you had researched them already. The hammer != car analogy is two-fold actually. One meaning is that you were using the wrong tool. The other is that you might be thinking along wrong lines entirely. I'm willing to bet that 99% of all nagios installations in the world monitor Windows servers either using SNMP or one of the 3 easily available clients designed specifically for that purpose (nsclient, nsclient++ and NC_Net). check_nt *can* talk to either of those clients, but they do not use WMI while doing so. The exception is NC_Net which can, if I understand how it works correctly (I may not; I haven't looked at its source/README's at all, since our own way of doing it is sufficient), query other windows servers using the dotnet framework. However, the chain then becomes nagios - check_nt - NC_Net on one windows server - Other windows server In other words, you need to use NC_Net on one server as a sort of proxy, and that seems to fall slightly outside what you wanted. However, the excellent Mono framework runs just fine under Linux, and since NC_Net is written in C# (I checked since I last posted about it), a moderately skilled programmer shouldn't have too much difficulty adapting NC_Net to cut out the proxy server and send queries directly to the targeted Windows server from which one actually wants information. Had you responded Right, I'm not a programmer so if you could hint at what's required for this?, I'd have known you're not. The post above was a kind of bait for both you and Tony Montibello (NC_Net author), as I believe a mono-based plugin to check windows systems would be totally awesome. I have no need for it though, so I won't be working on it. *warning: post contains rant* Andreas, you're making my head hurt! ;) I've been using (learning) Nagios now for about a week now and haven't encountered anything with such a vertical learning curve like this since I started learning Linux in 1996. Climbing this learning curve causes massive frustration, but once success happens there's a huge release of satisfaction and self-accomplishment. I personally am enjoying the trip and experience. Yesterday, after feeling comfortable getting Nagios to talk to servers on my local network for checking the obvious services running on them - linux and windows servers - like IIS, Apache, SMTP and the like I started working on getting my workstation to talk to the Nagios server via the NSClient++ package. This is going to be yet another challenge and one I fully accept. Let me tell you, for me the harder something is the more tenacious I become and refuse to let go until I master it. That being said the documentation which comes with Nagios seriously sucks until you begin to get on to the Nagios way of doing things. Over the last week I have googled more than I have in the last 5 years getting my test-bed nagios system going. I have literally googled my brains out. At the moment I'm somewhat at a loss to know whether I've worked harder googling for information or actually getting to know the Nagios way and making things work! I'm leaning towards Googling... So for you to curtly suggest that all can easily be found googling as an answer to this question is, well... just too easy. Either you don't actually know or you don't feel like telling. I totally understand though because I suspect you yourself have worked very hard getting to know and work with Nagios and have put quite a bit of time into the gaining the experience you now possess, but throwing us noobs a bone isn't really asking too much is it? Bone == link to information slap in one's face == go google it... Well, now that it seems you are no longer bothering to use WMI credentials (which was what the original post was all about), you really should be able to find all the information you need using

Re: [Nagios-users] Periodic Overrides
On 12 Mar 2009, at 15:29, Jason Frisvold wrote: For any given service, what is the accepted method for overriding test values for a specific time period? For example, we have servers that are backed up at a given time each night. During the backup period, load is driven up on the server, exceeding the current threshold. This, in turn, results in alerts being sent out about the server. However, since we know about this in advance, and it's a scheduled service, we'd like to override the load value during the backup period. So if we normally trigger on a load of 2, we'd like to instead trigger on a load of 4 during backups. I know I can create two services with two timeperiods that will handle this, but is there a better way? Check out our patch: http://opsview-blog.opsera.com/dotorg/2007/04/changing_a_serv.html You can then run a different command based on the timeperiod specified.

And I do a dig to google.com. Those three are each defined as a host, then put in a hostgroup called sanity check. If one test fails, I assume there's an issue on there end and ignore it. If two fail, same thing. If all three fail, I know my ISP connection is down. The contactgroup for the hostgroup for these hosts goes to SMS (mine and the mgr at our ISP). A.

If you check the verbose output, you will probably see something like this: 0 candiate peers available warning: no synchronization source found warning: LI_ALARM bit is set I do get valid output from ntpq -p hostname, however.
