Re: [Nagios-users] Manage notifications
You could do it for individual contacts & then put those contacts into a
contact group
define contact{
service_notification_options[w,u,c,r,f,s,n]
service_notification_options:
This directive is used to define the service states for which
notifications can be sent out to this contact. Valid options are a
combination of one or more of the following: w = notify on WARNING service
states, u = notify on UNKNOWN service states, c = notify on CRITICAL service
states, r = notify on service recoveries (OK states), and f = notify when the
service starts and stops flapping. If you specify n (none) as an option, the
contact will not receive any type of service notifications.

I'll just have to keep an eye on it for when this happens again or I'll simulate an error when I get time. I can just about remember that with the HOST critical it appeared in the "unhandled Hosts" section. And looking at the "Service Status Details" page the "Attempt" column remained on "1/3" whilst the host was DOWN. So it certainly was as if the HOST is DOWN so there is no point in it trying to perform any Service checks as these are always going to fail.

I'm guessing that the --send string is what you will send to the UDP port in question and the --expect string is what you will expect back. After a quick review of UDP/514 (syslog) and RFC3164, it appears to me that you cannot check this port using that particular check, because the syslog port will not report back to the sender in anyway (at least from what I can see). Therefore, I would recommend that you try a packet capture to verify this is the case and research another method of monitoring syslog, it could be a passive check to see how old the latest logs in your syslog are with a use of MARK entries in the syslog to ensure it's refreshed from time to time. -- Best Regards, Giles Coochey NetSecSpec Ltd NL T-Systems Mobile: +31 681 265 086 NL Mobile: +31 626 508 131 GIB Mobile: +350 5401 6693 Email/MSN/Live Messenger: gi...@coochey.net Skype: gilescoochey smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature -- The ultimate all-in-one performance toolkit: Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE: Pinpoint memory and threading errors before they happen.

[Nagios-users] Understanding Unhandled Services / Hosts
Hi - would someone be able to explain in detail the behaviour of this? I have a Nagios setup that in the Problems page is showing a host as DOWN - it's currently failing my default FPING test. It also has a number of simple check_tcp commands run against it, all of which are timing out because obviously with the host down I'm getting a "CRITICAL - Socket timeout after 10 seconds" for them all. BUT when looking in Unhandled Services they don't appear. The host itself DOES appear in the Unhandled Hosts screen. There are NO comments / acknowledgements in place at all for this host. Does anyone know why the service checks don't appear as an Unhandled Service?

[Nagios-users] using check_udp
Hi - has anyone successfully got check_udp working? I'm trying to use check_UDP (nagios-plugins 1.4.5) 1.80 but it keeps asking for a send/expect string and I've no idea what this is meant to be? The target server is running syslog and the check so far has just been failing with this: /opt/tools/libexec/check_udp -H 192.168.75.131 -p 514 With UDP checks, a send/expect string must be specified. So I guess my question is simply what should the following be set to: --send=STRING --expect=STRING Thanks - Julian. *** Julian Grunnell Unix Analyst TD Waterhouse International Leeds, West Yorkshire Tel: 0113 346 2824 Extn: 32824 Mobex: 52824 *** ___ Consider the environment: Please don't print this e-mail unless you really need to.
