Re: [Nagios-users] Tweaking Socket timeout

2013-01-04 Thread Andre Tann
Hi Paul,

Paul Dubuc, Mittwoch, 2. Januar 2013: 
 Service and host check plugins are responsible for implementing their
 own timeouts, not Nagios. This socket timeout must be specific to the
 plugin you are using for the service. The timeouts in nagios.cfg are
 backstops that prevent stuck plugins from tying up Nagios resources. 
 You should look at the command or service definition in your other
 config files and/or the plugin itself to see where and how this timeout
 is defined.

thanks, this was the clue. I now changed the command definition to a
timeout of 10 secs, and see - the service isn't flapping anymore.

Thanks again!

[Nagios-users] Question about notification_period

2011-05-24 Thread Andre Tann
Hello everyone,

I want my servers to be checked in a 24x7 period, and I want to be
notified by mail all the time to one contact. This works fine at the
moment.

But to a second contact,Mails should only be sent say 10:00-18:00.

How could I do this? Nagios doesn't accept a notification_period object
property with contacts.

Thanks for a hint!

 All contacts have the following two:
 
 service_notification_period 24x7
 host_notification_period24x7

That's it, thank you Stuart!

[Nagios-users] Passive check windows clients

2011-05-17 Thread Andre Tann
Hello everyone,

I have been googling around for a while now, but still don't have a
satisfying answer:

How can I passive-check the disk and load state of a windows client?
What I want is that if the client is up, it tells its disk/load state
once a day or so to nagios. If the client is down or somewhere on the
road, never mind.

And how would I do this with mac clients?

Thanks for some tips or headwords for google.

Re: [Nagios-users] Passive check windows clients

2011-05-17 Thread Andre Tann


Don't use a mac personally, but you can schedule the check locally at a
frequency you desire, and submit this to a passive job def with its
freshness
check disabled so it will never timeout.

Ok. And what piece of software would be needed on the windows side to check 
disk/load?

Thanks,
Andre

Re: [Nagios-users] Problem with Konica and Canon printer

2011-05-11 Thread Andre Tann
Hello Adam,

Adam Sweet, Donnerstag 05 Mai 2011: 

 Take a look at Transitiv's check_snmp_printer.pl check:
 
 http://www.transitiv.co.uk/resources-page/nagios-plugins

Thanks for you hint. I have installed this plugin now, but it seems not
to be too chatty:

# ./check_snmp_printer.pl -H kyocera.company.com
check_snmp_printer OK - Status: idle

Well, it's true that the printer is OK and idle. But how can one check
details about toner and paper status?

Do I overlook some option?

Thanks again,
Andre

[Nagios-users] Problem with Konica and Canon printer

2011-05-04 Thread Andre Tann
Hello everyone,

my nagios works fine with the Kyocera printers through the plugin
check_printer, but I still couldn't find out how to check these:

Canon iR 1024
Konica C252

Has anyone a hint for me how I could make nagios talk to these two
models?

The Konica tells me through the check_printer plugin about the toner,
but not about the paper tray.
The Canon doesn't tell anything using check_printer plugin.

Of course I have asked google, and heard about snmpwalk, but I don't
know what to do with the information snmpwalk gives me.

What can I do?

Re: [Nagios-users] Problem with Konica and Canon printer

2011-05-04 Thread Andre Tann
Hello Giorgio,

Giorgio Zarrelli, Mittwoch 04 Mai 2011: 

 Imagine the OID as as dotted address string (like 1.3.6.x.x.x.x.x). Each
 OID points to a value and what that value does mean is described into a
 collection called MIB.

OK, I understand this.


 So, find the right MIBs for your printers, look into them, point out the
 correct OIDS and then, using snmpget, you can query the printers for the
 values you need.

Is there any good site where one can find those MIB tables? I was
googling for quite a while now, but everything I could find was that
the manufacturers don't give out any information on what OID means what,
and all you can do is guess. So no MIB for my canon nor my konica yet,
and guessing is not so easy.

What now?

Thanks for your help!
