Re: [Nagios-users] How configure Nagios to send periodic notifications?

hello
You want to take a look at the external commands :
http://www.nagios.org/developerinfo/externalcommands/commandinfo.php?command_id=135
I have upgraded from nagios2 to nagios3 and now when I execute the shell
script that fires the external command it runs fine. The problem is that
nagios doesn't fire a mail. I have done the following. I have created a
shell script that it should be executed via a cron task and everytime it
should send an email fired by the service.
--
#!/bin/sh
# This is a sample shell script showing how you can submit the
SEND_CUSTOM_SVC_NOTIFICATION command
# to Nagios. Adjust variables to fit your environment as necessary.
now=`date +%s`
commandfile='/var/lib/nagios3/rw/nagios.cmd'
/usr/bin/printf [%lu]
SEND_CUSTOM_SVC_NOTIFICATION;192.168.10.26;MAILPARSER_TEST;2;test;Testing
if everything is OK\n $now $commandfile
--
And I have defined the following service
--
define service {
service_description MAILPARSER_TEST
check_command return-critical
normal_check_interval 2
use generic-service
notification_interval 0
}
--
And never sends a mail as it normally does with all the other services I
have. Any idea?
Cheers!!

Hi all,
Since few weeks ago we use Nagios as monitoring system and everytime
there is a problem it notifies sending an email. We have a system that
parses those emails and using a text to speech system it makes a phone
call. To be sure that the alarm system is running we have periodic calls
launched by emails programmed as cron tasks. I'm worried that some of
the Nagios notifications could be lost or even it wouldn't sent any
notification, so I'd like to launch to substitute those cron emails by
Nagios fake notifications or something similar.
Do you know if there is a way to force Nagios to send a notification
periodically?
Thank you very much

[Nagios-users] Newbie question about nagios and snmp
Hi all, I have about 15 servers to monitor, some of them are windows and the rest run Debian. To do so, I have installed Nagios to send me alarms and cacti to show graphs and historical data. The things I'd like to monitor, for the time being are very basic CPU usage, disk space, ... To monitor the remote servers I've installed the snmp daemon. In cacti I have everything running, but there is a thing in nagios that I don't know how to do. I'd like to monitor the available space in the server partions and not in the disks. 1.- So I should create a service for each partition and define a hostgroup? or there is a way to say check all the partitions and shout if the available space is lower than 10%? 2.- Is there a way to ask the free disk of / instead of /dev/sda1? thanks all -- Arnau - Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

check_snmp_disk
In my debian I can't find that check_snmp_disk, the only thing I have
found in /etc/nagios-plugins/config/snmp.cfg is:
# 'snmp_disk' command definition
define command{
command_namesnmp_disk
command_line/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_snmp -H
$HOSTADDRESS$ -C $ARG1$ -o
.1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.9.1.7.$ARG2$,.1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.9.1
.9.$ARG2$ -w $ARG3$:,:$ARG4$ -c $ARG5$:,:$ARG6$ -u 'kB free (','% used)'
-l 'disk space'
}
am I missing anything?
