Re: [Nagios-users] Check issues on Solaris with NRPE not dealing with ARGS

2009-08-13 Thread Brian O'Mahony
Turned out I had been mucking about with the check_nrpe command descriptor, as 
during my testing I had just been checking the nrpe version (Im implementing 
this on Solaris, AIX, HPUX, debian, rhel, CentOS, zlinux, suse and windows) and 
when it had more arguments, the nrpe checks in the nagios gui were failing. 
Once I changed this back to having args, the checks started working again.

Thanks for all the help.

Sure. This is already working.
Sorry, I didn't recognized, that you are sending the commands from the 
nagios-server to the remote. Reading your first post again shows me that.
So forget my last post...

 So if the commands work that way, shouldn't they work from the automated 
 checks?

Do you send the checks by ssl?
Maybe your nagios user hasn't the right certificate to do this?

  Hi all,
  
  Nagios 3.0.6 (current default on Debian Lenny).
  
  We have a number of activities that will periodically trash our
  network bandwidth, thus causing all of our external checks to
  fail.  Now, although I am quite happy to be notified if a service
  genuinely goes down, I would really rather not be notified if a
  plugin times out.
  
  Is there any way to specifically prevent Nagios from sending plugin
  time out notifications but still send all others?
 
 If this is a bandwidth issue, the easy solution would have those
 checks which will fail if bandwidth isn't available dependent on some
 check that looks to see if bandwidth is available.  That way, you
 only get one notification that your bandwidth is hosed, rather than a
 whole bunch of them for everything that breaks when it happens.

Thank you for the suggestion, Patrick.  As it happens, I think I may
have a solution already.  I modified the
send_service_notification_by_email command so it checks for plugin
timeout and only sends the notification if it fails this check (ie the
details don't contain plugin timeout).  Maybe not the most elegant
solution, but it seems to have worked. :D

Cheers.
Grant.

just copy your /etc/nagios directory to the new server and all your

 You've already specified the switches in the command definition , so your
 service definition should read something like:

 define service{
        use                           generic-service
        host_name                 Windows_1
        service_description     C:\ Drive Space

  }

 You've also hardcoded the drive letter in your command definition, but left
 the type of check as a variable.  Since check_nt_disks will always be
 running USEDDISKSPACE, it should really look like:

 define command {
        command_name    check_nt_disks
        command_line    /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nt -H '$HOSTADDRESS$'
 -p 12489  -v USEDDISKSPACE -l '$ARG1$' -w '$ARG2$' -c '$ARG3$'
 }

 with a service definition of:

 define service{
        use                           generic-service
        host_name                 Windows_1

No. External commands are one-way and have no way of returning output.

[script names snipped]

 It's a little messy and is likely to break if the
 layout/ordering/anything in the status.dat file changes in later
 versions of nagios.
 Or is this my only real option?

NDOUtils and just reading this info out of the database seems like a  
better option.

 We're currently considering a rollout of Centreon and I have tried to
go through the install process on one of our Nagios systems.  I have got
to the point where Centeon begins to look for ndomod.o which I believe
is part of NDOUtils.

 I'm a little wary about going any further as NDOUtils are
self-proclaimed alpha stage software and are listed as not stable on
Nagios 3.X.
It's more beta than alpha...

 Has anyone had any experiences using Centreon/NDOUtils on Nagios 3, and
if so are there any problems about which I should be aware?  We're
running SLES11 if that adds anything into the mix.
Runs fine. 1.4b8 has a better mysql detection.
1.4b9 will support TLS/SSL encryption on tcp socket

Bad thing we wan't to catch up in the future: The database is able to
block straight back to the nagios daemon.
Will say: If your DB is busy handling the huge amount of data, ndo2db
slows down writing the data caught by a ndomod, but the ndomod waits
until a single event is written to the db and nagios might hang.
Workaround: check the ndomod.cfg for the broker options and only write
things to the database you are needing, f.e. only current status data
and config data.

Many traffic is made by the timed events, don't let them run to your
database may be a first step, if you don't need them.

[Nagios-users] Alerts, Escalation and Alert Counts

Hi Group, I wonder if you could help me out with the
following scenario I would like to set up.

I will try and explain best I can but if I'm a little
vague in places please let me know, here goes then..

I'm monitoring for example an FTP service that if
goes down flags as critical, I would like to alert in
the following way.

Alert 1 after 10 minutes: -
Email, SMS.

Alert 2 after another 10 minutes: -
Email, SMS.

Alert 3 after another 10 minutes: -
Email, SMS and then Voice alert.

Then after that no alarms at all until a recovery
notice is sent, I understand the intervals between
alerts but its getting the alerts to stop after the
3rd one that I'm hitting issues with.

SMS and voice alerts are by external companies who
just convert my mail to the appropriate service.

If this can not be set-up what is the closest I can
get to achieving this, sorry for the question but I
can not seam to get my head around escalations. 

Many thanks and hope you can help me with what is
causing me grief

This should be fairly easy. As I've recently struggled with escalations, I'll 
give you some pointers. 

You may want to set the default contact group for this host/service to be a 
null address and set the notification_interval to 10. Then, setup an escalation 
for the first two notifications you need with a first_notification of 1 and a 
last_notification of 2. Also, in your escalation, set a contact group which can 
e-mail and sms. 

To get the recovery notification, setup another escalation with a 
first_notification of 3, a final_notification of 0, and an escalation_options 
of r. Set the contact group you want which sends sms, e-mail, and voice.This 
should handle the recovery for you. 

Obviously, you'll need to setup the appropriate contact groups and commands to 
dispatch the notifications. 

There may be a better option, and I haven't tested the above, but it *should* 
work. It might need a little tweaking.

just convert my mail to the appropriate service.

If this can not be set-up what is the closest I can
get to achieving this, sorry for the question but I
can not seam to get my head around escalations. 

Many thanks and hope you can help me with what is
causing me grief

Craig

Re: [Nagios-users] SNMP Checks

 Is there any way to get an snmp check to query multiple oids

If you're talking about generic SNMP oids, certainly you can create a  
custom plugin to do this pretty easily. I've done it for some router  
checks; hunting for an interface description with a particular tag and  
then probing several other OIDs specific to that interface number.

check_snmp in the plugins package has the ability to check multiple  
OID's in one call but I believe that they all need to be of the same  
type. I'm not aware of any other general snmp plugins that allow you  
to do that but my memory is getting long here as I don't usually need  
much beyond the capabilities of check_snmp. It also sounds like you  
may be looking for snmpwalk capabilities as well. That a bit of a  
different beast than GETs of specific OID's.

 like.1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.9 and return the *.7 for my seventh disc, maybe
 cat a few values together actually so it queries for the name, mount
 point, free space etc in one check so it occupies only one line on
 the host screen?

For disks in particular, this might be useful to you --

Yeah, I don't know what I was thinking trying to do it the hard way:)
I already those installed so I just took the easy way out and used 'em!

Thanks!

Re: [Nagios-users] Stability of NDOUtils with Nagios 3.0.6

2009-08-13 Thread Simon Finch
Hi Kris,
 
We are running this configuration successfully without any major problems for 
about a year.
I am currently running with Nagios 3.10 / NDOUtils 1.4b7. in production and 
NDOUtils 1.4b8 in development.
The only problem I am currently seeing is that ndo2db-3x leaves zombies behind 
that I have to clean up occasionally by restarting the ndo daemon, otherwise it 
runs fine.
 
I am currently running Centreon 2.1 with no problems on Ubuntu 8.04.
If you have a large site then please consider installing MySQL on it's own 64 
bit host. I started with everything on one 32 bit 4 CPU 4Gb server and 
somewhere around 200 monitored server mark I the found that MySQL was hogging 
3.5 of the CPU's and the whole system became very sluggish. I moved MySQL to a 
64 bit Ubuntu server (same config as the 32 bit server) and the usage dropped 
from 350% to 60%.
 
I don't know if our site would be considered as medium or large but for 
comparison this setup is currently supporting multiple Nagios servers in 
firewalled zones, Nagvis with lots of large NOC maps, lots of users and 
monitoring approx 2000 servers with 1 service checks. So far it is very 
responsive and we growing daily.
 
Thanks,
Simon

 Getchell, Kristoffer M k.getch...@kingston.ac.uk 13/08/2009 5:58 pm 
We're currently considering a rollout of Centreon and I have tried to go 
through the install process on one of our Nagios systems.  I have got to the 
point where Centeon begins to look for ndomod.o which I believe is part of 
NDOUtils.

I'm a little wary about going any further as NDOUtils are self-proclaimed alpha 
stage software and are listed as not stable on Nagios 3.X.

Has anyone had any experiences using Centreon/NDOUtils on Nagios 3, and if so 
are there any problems about which I should be aware?  We're running SLES11 if 
that adds anything into the mix.

Thanks,




Kris
