Re: [Nagios-users] upgrade nagios 1.4.1 to nagios 3.2.3
Thanks Daniel, If upgrading using an rpm is not advisable; could you please suggest a procedure to upgrade using the source package. I want to plan a clean risk free upgrade plan. After i backup the old configs and remove the Nagios 1.4 rpms; how do i proceed to compile the new Nagios package. Do i have to upgrade the plugins also.?? These are the rpms currently installed nagios-plugins-1.3.1-10.rhel3.dag nagios-plugins-nrpe-2.0-3.rhel3.dag nagios-nrpe-2.0-3.rhel3.dag nagios-nsca-2.4-2.rhel3.dag nagios-1.4.1-1.el3.rf Sunny Jaisinghani -Original Message- From: Daniel Tuecks [mailto:dtue...@googlemail.com] Sent: 14 November 2010 05:46 To: Nagios Users List Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] upgrade nagios 1.4.1 to nagios 3.2.3 Upgrading from Nagios 1 to Nagios 3 will likely break your config.

Re: [Nagios-users] debugging eventhandler via nrpe
make sure you check the right file, since the debug output goes to
var/nagios.debug (debug_file=)
debug_level=-1
debug_verbosity=2
Then everything is clear.

Re: [Nagios-users] debugging eventhandler via nrpe
Guess the "-t 200" option got you , because
check_nrpe_nonssl!solr-restart!$SERVICESTATE$ $SERVICESTATETYPE$
$SERVICEATTEMPT$!-t200
will be processed in two steps:
1) macro expansion in args
solr-restart!CRITICAL SOFT 1!-t 200
ARG1=solr-restart
ARG2=CRITICAL SOFT 1
ARG3=-t 200
2) macro expansion the whole raw line,
2.1) say the difinition be "check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -n -c $ARG1$
-a $ARG2$ $ARG3$"
check_nrpe -H -n -c solr-restart -a "CRITICAL SOFT 1" "-t 200"
2.2) or, say it be "check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -n -c $ARG1$ -a $ARG2$"
check_nrpe -H -n -c solr-restart -a "CRITICAL SOFT 1"
That is, if more than n args are specified in the case of ARGn being
the last positional macro, the additional parts are simply ignored.
In any case, "-t 200" is not used as expected, while the default is 10 seconds.
Then the check_nrpe generates a query to nrpe:
solr-restart!CRITICAL SOFT 1!-t 200
or
solr-restart!CRITICAL SOFT 1
And nrpe invoke the defined command as
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/eventhandlers/restart-solr.sh "CRITICAL SOFT
1" "-t 200"
or
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/eventhandlers/restart-solr.sh "CRITICAL SOFT 1"
given the definition
command[solr-restart]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/eventhandlers/restart-solr.sh
$ARG1$ $ARG2$
or
command[solr-restart]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/eventhandlers/restart-solr.sh
$ARG1$
Similary, if more than n args are specified in the case of ARGn being
the last positional macro, the additional parts are simply ignored.
The above analysis is not verified.
thanks,
kc

Re: [Nagios-users] No permission to web-interface
What user doesn't have rights? Did you create a password for the nagiosadmin user account using htpasswd?

By default you can only see hosts/services that you are assigned as a contact for.

The default automap is fairly unusable once you hit a non-trivial number of hosts. We have 386 on ours, and nobody bothers. It doesn't help if you want to map certain services instead of hosts either. If you're keen on a map, you need to look at something like nagvis to do that. We have a nice map of the country/world showing connections to various overseas bureaus.

You'll need to look at the third party software to determine how they get data into a database. Nagios doesn't use a database so has no standard database schema. Each addon either has it's own specific schema or utilizes one of other common event broker -> database addons (such as ndoutils). -- Marc -- Centralized Desktop Delivery: Dell and VMware Reference Architecture Simplifying enterprise desktop deployment and management using Dell EqualLogic storage and VMware View: A highly scalable, end-to-end client virtualization framework.

Well, I know. It's stored in /var/log/nagios/archives/x.log But I'm not hunger for rewriting the tons of files manually.

Re: [Nagios-users] Another Nagios Historical Data Question
I am referring to a search and replace within each of the history files, not the names of those files. The Nagios Archives all of the state change data for hosts and services within a flat text file that is rolled daily. Those files are stored in the archives folder and whenever you run a trend report on a service or host state history it parses every daily file in the archive folder that falls within the date range of your query. --- When you run the history reports they build the historical data by parsing for the service name in the files in the archives folder. The reason the history isn't there is because the name has changed. You could do a search and replace on all the files in the archive folder to stamp them with the new service name if you really want to maintain that history. -Original Message- From: Ales Rikovsky [mailto:ales.rikov...@upol.cz] Sent: Monday, November 15, 2010 4:52 AM To: Nagios Users List Subject: [Nagios-users] Another Nagios Historical Data Question Hi, when I change name of the host or service, I'll lose history for them.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios Historical Data Question
Note that by default Nagios only retains a history of state changes - it does NOT retain the results of service checks for trending, If you want to maintain results for trending purposes You will need to modify your service checks to write the relevant performance trend data to a database or file to be processed by a trending tool (such as cacti). Also if you are running SUSE 11 the default installation auto-archives the "archive" folders with a cron job in the /etc/cron.weekly folder. This basically bzip's each daily archive file which will prevent Nagios from being able to read them when you run the state history trends. -Original Message- From: Korrawit Yindeeyoungyeon [mailto:skaaa.a...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, November 15, 2010 4:25 AM To: Nagios Users List Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios Historical Data Question Thank Marc Powell On Mon, Nov 15, 2010 at 3:21 PM, Marc Powell wrote: > > On Nov 15, 2010, at 2:06 AM, Korrawit Yindeeyoungyeon wrote: > >> Hi, I'm new with Nagios.

Re: [Nagios-users] debugging eventhandler via nrpe
Nagios.log show that the event handler is being executed ,and showing
the passed parameters
from nagios.log
;JBoss Port
8080;CRITICAL;SOFT;1;check_nrpe_nonssl!solr-restart!CRITICAL SOFT 1!-t 200
the "-t 200" is to tell nagios to wait for the reply for 200 seconds -
on the remote host we have a timeout of 300 , so that will allow the
nrpe session time to work the command and then terminate .
The debug log is not showing the event handler at all , i have changed
the logging to -1 and hopefully it will give me some more data .

Nagios only uses flat files for data. No special action is necessary and the web interface is used to display that data or you can parse the files and use the data on your own. > 3.) Can Nagios work with MySQL? How? Not directly but there are addons available at http://exchange.nagios.org to tie nagios to MySQL for both configuration (i.e. front ends that store their data in MySQL, then generate the flat file with configuration data that nagios requires) and data retention for parsing/presentation by other third party apps (i.e. merlin or other alternative front end.) -- Marc -- Centralized Desktop Delivery: Dell and VMware Reference Architecture Simplifying enterprise desktop deployment and management using Dell EqualLogic storage and VMware View: A highly scalable, end-to-end client virtualization framework.

The only free UI I know of that has full support for everything and uses mysql as a backend is Ninja, which works with the Merlin schema.
