[Nagios-users] check_cluster - Wrong service state
Hi all, I configured check_cluster plugin to monitor two services that work redundant (1 is up, 1 is down all the time). The plugin that check the services, returns UNKNOWN state for the service that are down. However, check_cluster return that both services are OK (CLUSTER OK: Disk-Cluster: 2 ok, 0 warning, 0 unknown, 0 critical). Which can possible reasons for detecting incorrectly the state of the services?

Re: [Nagios-users] parent/child relationship in distribute environment
Nope, it should be as follows (example parent - child ) nagios2 - A2 - BB1 - Server 3 I'm getting confusing. sorry for misunderstanding at this time, I read nagios documentation again and in my understanding that nagios2 is connected to A1 not A2. all of my nagios servers are connected to A1. so how can A2 be a parent for nagios2 ? and Server3 also connected to A2 not BB1 directly. and A2 and BB1 should be hosts defined in nagios2 , to match the parent tree. is this means distributed nagios server must have all of hosts(it mean switch like A2, BB1) definition to match the parent tree?? what i really wanted to do was separate the hosts definitions to each distributed nagios servers. all switches goes to nagios1, server group1 goes to nagios2, server group2 goes to nagios3...etc. because i didn't want to duplicate the host definition. please look at my topology here. http://yfrog.com/1etopologyj from my topology, nagios1 checks server1, server2 directly then who should be a parent for server1, server2 from view of nagios1?? i thought that would be A2 and BB1 is parent of A2 and A1 is parent of BB1 and nagios1 is parent of A1. this is same parent/child relationship for Nagios Central server. that means i have to duplicate object configuration or maintain same config file to central server and distribute server when i started with same cfg file to central and monitor server, it works fine but there are duplicated host check occured to the same host from central and distributed sever. do we need to host check enable in distributed server too?? -- Download Intel#174; Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.

[Nagios-users] Working version of check_cisco_ping
Does anyone know if there's a working version of check_cisco_ping? http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Plugins/Hardware/Network-Gear/Cisco/check_cisco_ping/details It has an issue with utils.pm which is being deprecated in favor of Nagios::Plugin. What I need is the ability to SSH into a Cisco router, jump into enable mode, and ping inside of a VRF. I'm carrying a private state education network across my backbone and have no idea if it's having trouble until someone calls. I can't ping from the NMS server because I have to be inside the MPLS/VPN to do that. There are 2 points on my network that I can ping from within that VRF if I can just find a working plugin that can do it for me. Suggestions?

Re: [Nagios-users] Installing NRPE
I believe the default port of 5666 is an unprivileged port. -Original Message- From: patrick.mor...@hp.com [mailto:patrick.mor...@hp.com] Sent: Wednesday, February 24, 2010 4:46 PM To: akp geek Cc: Nagios-Users Mailinglist Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Installing NRPE On Wed, 24 Feb 2010, akp geek wrote: Hi all - I have installed Nagios and working fine so far.

Just make sure you run it on an unprivileged port (which may be the default, but I'm not somewhere I can confirm that). You don't need any root-level access. -- Download Intel#174; Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.

[Nagios-users] servicegroups directive doesn't seem to work
Hello,
The documentation at
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/objectdefinitions.html for
Service Definition says that you can use a 'servicegroups' directive to
assign a service to a servicegroup instead of using the 'members'
directive in the service group:
*servicegroups*: This directive is used to identify the /short
name(s)/ of the servicegroup(s)
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/objectdefinitions.html#servicegroup
that the service belongs to. Multiple servicegroups should be
separated by commas. This directive may be used as an alternative to
using the /members/ directive in servicegroup
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/objectdefinitions.html#servicegroup
definitions.
I would like to do this using a service template that service
definitions can use to do the assignment like the configuration below.
This would save me from having to add many host,service pairs to the
members directive in the service group. But it doesn't seem to work
(I'm using Nagios 3.2.0). I get the following configuration error:
Error: Servicegroup members must be specified in
host_name,service_description pairs (config file ' ...
I get the same error when I delete the service template and move the
servicegroups directive into the service definitions.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Paul Dubuc
