Re: [Nagios-users] check_disk output

2013-09-17 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

 atlantis:~# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 20% -c 10% -p / -p 
 /drbd/
 DISK OK - free space: / 796 MB (23% inode=69%); /drbd 9094 MB (94%
 inode=96%);| /=2575MB;2840;3195;0;3551 /drbd=482MB;8071;9080;0;10089
 
 
 This is the configuration that I have in 
 /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg:
 
 command[check_disk]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 15% -c 10%
 -p / - /drbd

For debugging, you should run the exact same command as the nrpe daemon 
user (e.g. nagios) and look for the differences.

If you see different output, you can try it with the setuid (chmod u+s 
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk) and try it again. Maybe this 
helps.

Re: [Nagios-users] No performance data when increasing normal_check_interval time

2013-06-25 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

 Is it nagiosgraph that you are using? in that case i think the solution is
 to regenerate .rrd files according to the new check_interval...


... and increase the heartbeat value in nagiosgraph.conf

OK. So to make more sense of the whole thing, the only thing that is
taken into account is the actual numerical value? In other words, it's
automatically parsed? This is what I wasn't sure of.

Here is the entry in the mapfile I was using:

/output:PROCS.*:(\d+) processes with args 'apache'/
and push @s, ['apache',
['connections', GAUGE, $1] ];

This works, too, when you only want to parse the process checks for apache.

You give the RRD description the name connections. I don't think that the
number of Apache processes really represent the number of connections.
In this case, I suggest you use check_netstat.pl.

the problem is there is no perfdata and the rrd file isn't being
populated, (and obviously, no graph). I'm attributing this to the fact
that the map file entry is wrong. This is really where my problem lies.
Am I looking in the wrong place?

It's check_procs which doesn't create perfdata. You might need to manually
patch it. See:

Re: [Nagios-users] Trying to figure out the PCRE expression for Nagiosgraph Map

2013-05-10 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

 The output for one query would be:

 PROCS OK: 11 processes with args 'apache'


Well first of all you'd have to make sure that nagiosgraph also takes the
output in account.
It's always better to do that with perfdata...

You have the choice to also take the output as source to parse, although I
strongly recommend to use perfdata. That's what it is for.



 What would the map rule look like that would do the following?

 1. Begin with PROCS OK:
 2. End with args 'apache'
 3. Extract only the numeric value before the word processes?


The regex would look something like this:

/output:PROCS.*:(\d+) processes.*/

assuming that you don't care about the args and the status (OK, WARNING,
CRITICAL) part.
Only the digit (11) would be taken out of the output in this case.

 2013/4/8 Claudio Kuenzler c...@claudiokuenzler.com

 This is a basic dependency in Nagios. When the host is down (hard) then
 you won't receive any alerts for the services defined in this host.
 What is likely in your case, is that you have scheduled the service
 checks more often or faster to alert before the host check. This will
 result in some alerts of services before the actual host down alert comes.
 You should check out the event log to determine which checks happened
 faster to become a hard critical state.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios Graph converting figures to binary bytes rather than decimal

2012-12-19 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

James and I continued the troubleshooting off-list and we came to the
solution, which we want to share of course.
Here's more or less my mail:

---

You're absolutely right, the graphs were not correct. With both *1000**2
and *1024**2.

Actually, thanks to your e-mail I figured that in the past years I've lived
in denial. I must have come up with the multiplication of 1000 in the map
file as a kind of workaround, because the graph was closer to the actual
reality. Then I must have forgotten that and went on

I broke it down to this:

# df

Filesystem  Size   Used  Avail Use%
Mounted on
/dev/md4 682587992 117456312 530731228  19% /

# df -h

Filesystem  SizeUsed  Avail  Use% Mounted on
/dev/md4 651G  113G  507G  19% /

So df shows a value in KB (682587992).

The Nagios plugin itself takes this value and presents it in MB (666589):

/=114709MB;533271;599930;0;666589

So in order to present Nagiosgraph the values, we have to go down to the
lowest level, which in this case is Byte.
To get Byte value from the Nagios output we have to multiply it with
1024^2: 666589*1024*1024 = 698969227264

The job of Nagiosgraph is now to take this 698969227264 value and divide it
so often through 1024 until a reasonable and human readable value is
given, which would be the 651 GB.

But here's the problem: Nagiosgraph divides 698969227264 through 1000
instead of 1024, showing the graph at 698 GB.
But why? It took me some guesses which I had to confirm but: Nagiosgraph BY
DEFAULT divides through 1000. Probably because the initial reason for rrd
graphs was the graphing of network connections which are usually in bits.
Anyhow we need to tell Nagiosgraph to divide through 1024 for our disk
checks.
There's a special file for that called *rrdopts.conf*. I added the
following lines to it:

# disk values need to be divided by 1024 not 1000
Diskspace /=-b 1024
Root Partition=-b 1024

The string left defines the service description in Nagios. So in my case
this is Diskspace /. -b 1024 tells Nagiosgraph to take 1024 as a base
value.
See the following entry from the rrdgraph manpage:

[*-b*|*--base* *value*] If you are graphing memory (and NOT network
traffic) this switch should be set to 1024 so that one Kb is 1024 byte. For
traffic measurement, 1 kb/s is 1000 b/s.

Now you just have to make sure, that rrdopts.conf is not commented in your
nagiosgraph.conf file and there you go.
Positive thing is that there is no need to recreate the rrd files. This rrd
option is only for viewing/drawing the graphs. Which means that the correct
values are shown immediately.

 Hi Claudio,

 I modified your code as it was not working for me and wanted to check what

 The filesystem is only 450GB in size, yet the graph values are still
 showing 460.80, which is the byte value show in decimal GB.

 I cannot work out why the graph is showing the wrong values when all other

 Hi Claudio,

  

 I have entered the map entry below based on your example and I am still
 seeing the results on the graph show as a decimal version of the Bytes
 value.

  

 /perfdata:(.*)=(\d+)MB;(\d+);(\d+);(\d+);(\d+)/

 and push @s, [$1,

 ['data', GAUGE, $2*1024*1024 ],

 ['warn', GAUGE, $3*1024*1024 ],

 ['crit', GAUGE, $4*1024*1024 ],

 ['min', GAUGE, $5*1024*1024 ],

 ['max', GAUGE, $6*1024*1024 ] ];


 You didn't follow my example, as you're again multiplying with 1024.

 Take _another_ look at my example:

 ['used', GAUGE, $2*1000**2 ],
 ['total', GAUGE, $6*1000**2 ] ];

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios Graph converting figures to binary bytes rather than decimal

2012-12-15 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

Hi James,


 Looking at the GB value and converting to bytes and then back to GB using
 decimal bytes gives these figures.

 Is there any way to make nagiosgraph using binary bytes rather than
 decimal.  I am not that familiar with nagiosgraph or RRD and cannot work
 out how to make the change.


You will have to manually add an entry into the 'map' file to tell
nagiosgraph to use different values.

My system (df -h) shows:
FilesystemSize  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vg0-root   20G  5.4G   14G  29% /

Nagiosgraph shows:
total: 20.32G
used: 5.45G

You can use the following map entry:

# Service Type: check_disk
# Nagiosgraph regex by Claudio Kuenzler
# Check: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk -w 20% -c 10% -p /
# Output: DISK OK - free space: / 235120 MB (66% inode=95%):
# Perfdata: /=119211MB;298635;335964;0;373294
/perfdata:(.*)=(\d+)MB;(\d+);(\d+);(\d+);(\d+).*/
#/perfdata:(\W)=(\d+)MB;(\d+);(\d+);(\d+);(\d+).*/ # only / partition
and push @s, [diskusage,
['used', GAUGE, $2*1000**2 ],
['total', GAUGE, $6*1000**2 ] ];

 Hi Claudio,

 Thanks for the feedback.  Just to make sure, where abouts in the map file
 should these lines go?

 Thanks

Just make sure you add these lines BEFORE the following part:

##
# default rule.  if none of the other rules did anything, then check for
# perfdata that meets the standard format.

You're right, the check should only happen every 2 mins
(normal_check_interval).
But what looks strange to me is the check_command.
Do you actually have command definition called check_http - vhost - url -
string ? I'm not sure if spaces are allowed in the definition.
Can you post the command definition?


What happens if you change the check_command to the following:

check_commandcheck_website!www.website.com!-u /

where the command definition of check_website looks like that:

define command{
command_namecheck_website
command_line$USER1$/check_http -H $ARG1$ $ARG2$

Such an error 255 out of bounds can happen, when the plugin gives too
much information Nagios could handle.
Happened to me for example when I tried to monitor all ports of a 48-port
switch. You'll have to use some regex or another way to narrow down the
real information you need.

 Nagios is checking services way too often.  It's supposed to check once

 I believe this is the relevant parts of the nagios.cfg file:


Actually the relevant part for how often a check should be executed is in
the service definition of the check. Mostly the service itself uses a
template with the use option. In this case you have to check your
templates.cfg file.

If you don't find it, please post the relevant service definition and the
definition of the template being used by the service.

Jaap, if you'd use check_http correctly, as the others mentioned, it would
work.
It just happens that https://latitude.google.com shows a 503 error right
this moment and for curiosity's sake I tested it:

# ./check_http -H latitude.google.com -S
HTTP CRITICAL: HTTP/1.1 503 Service Unavailable - 1119 bytes in 0.071
second response time |time=0.070649s;;;0.00 size=1119B;;;0

As you see, it works as it should if used correctly.

Re: [Nagios-users] Plugin check_oracle_health

2012-11-09 Thread Claudio Kuenzler


 BUT - a huge discovery when composing this mail. The only service
 definition that worked from Nagios was the one which has the undocumented
 argument --method sqlplus.
 I think i saw on some forums the use of that paramether in the beginning,
 and it remained in the definition.
 Anyway, after adding that parammeter to all other service and command
 definitions, they started to work miracouslly (but still, from command
 line, the plugin is working without --method argument)
 Thank you for asking for command and service definition ;)


A couple of eyes always see more or in this case if one starts over to
explain from zero, the bug is found eventually ;-)
Glad it works now. Right in time to enjoy the weekend!

 So my question for someone who has made check_oracle_healt work is:
 How come all 4 invocation from CLI as nagios user work, but when Nagios
 runs them, only 2 of them work.
 I know that the error message tells me that there is some env variable
 path problem, but why are the first 2 calls of check_oracle_healt work then?


Can you, for completion, show your command definitions as well as the
service definition?

Just fyi: On my installation I used a different way to use --connect, I
used EZCONNECT.
See:
http://labs.consol.de/lang/de/blog/uncategorized/check_oracle_health-kann-ezconnect/

My command definition:

command_namecheck_oracle_health
command_line$USER1$/check_oracle_health --username $USER3$
--password $USER4$ --mode $ARG1$ --connect $HOSTADDRESS$:$ARG2$/$ARG3$
}

And one of the service definitions:

# Check Oracle
define service{
usegeneric-service
host_name myoraserver
service_description  Oracle Connections
check_command
check_oracle_health!connected-users!1521!SERVICENAME

You didn't correctly install the DBD::Oracle or your env variables are not
correct, as your error message shows it:

Can't locate DBD/Oracle.pm in @INC (@INC contains:

You said that you have set the paths in .bashrc:

I also set in .bashrc the enviroment variables:
export ORACLE_HOME=/usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client
export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib

You probably set this as root. Don't forget that Nagios runs under its own

What Nagios Graphing solution do you use?
In case of Nagiosgraph, it does what you tell Nagiosgraph to do. Check your
map file, you might have to adjust some of the entries to match special
plugins/perfdata.

Sorry, don't really know pnp4nagios, but from other message mails the
graphs seem to be handled by templates.
You might want to check the pnp4nagios template documentation
http://docs.pnp4nagios.org/pnp-0.6/tpl

Also take a look at
http://www.monitoring-portal.org/wbb/index.php?page=BoardboardID=58 . The

Re: [Nagios-users] Plugin check_oracle_health

2012-10-03 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

It's not that hard and a lot of things are written in the documentation of
check_oracle_health.
I even wrote an article about this in September 2011 explaining the steps:
http://www.claudiokuenzler.com/blog/192/install-perl-dbd-oracle-DBD::Oracle-on-SuSE-SLES10-without-cpan

You should do it the way you prefer of course. But in my setup I wanted to
run check_oracle_health on a standalone Nagios server. That way I also see
if there's a latency in the remote sql query. Real life applications rarely
use localhost connections.

In your case I'd do:

2012-09-04 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

Note that now you're accessing port 80, instead of 8443...
Also before you use the plugin, you should make sure that you have
correctly enabled mod_status and the server-status URL is accessible.
You can test this with curl or lynx.

e.g.:
lynx localhost/server-status

If this page is not shown, then the plugin won't work.

You should write to Apache mailing list, not to Nagios ;-)
Read http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_status.html

The status.conf seems correct.
You should be able to access the server-status page from the same host.
Try to access it with and without SSL (are you forcing a SSL redirect?).
You can also run apache2ctl status to check if the module is correctly

There seems to be something wrong with your redirect then. You need to

Disable the redirect and check again.
In general you should have a correct and working configuration before

 Also before you use the plugin, you should make sure that you have
 correctly enabled mod_status and the server-status URL is accessible.
 You can test this with curl or lynx.

 e.g.:
 lynx localhost/server-status

 If this page is not shown, then the plugin won't work.

 All,



 I don’t know if anyone else already posted this, I just joined the mail
 list.



 We have been using check_openmanage (brilliant piece of work!) to check
 the hardware status of our Dell machines, lately we are moving from ESX 4
 to ESXi 5 and found that the check_openmanage check could not help us with
 the monitoring of ESXi 5 hardware, because check_openmanage needs OMSA for
 its checks. Today I found a other plugin to check ESXi hardware, see
 http://www.claudiokuenzler.com/nagios-plugins/check_esxi_hardware.php



 There is one disadvantage to this plugin and that is that you always get
 the same status details back with a OK. I don’t know if it is possible but
 it would be nice to have the checks from the check_esxi_hardware available
 in the check_openmanage, only problem is one is written in Python the other
 in Perl…



 I hope it helps and that maybe someone (Trond the author of
 check_openmanage?) can create one check of this.

Generally you can use -S and -p 443 for SSL-sites. It doesn't matter if the
certificate is verified or self-signed.

It might sound stupid but the only way which comes into my mind is to
search and replace myserver to myserver1 in the archive logs.
At least if you're using log files and no db for check results and logging.



 If think it would be the same problem if migration from an old nagios
 server to a new one.


Nope it wouldn't. The Nagios config would stay the same - you just need to
migrate all the archive logs as well.

Re: [Nagios-users] [SPAM] Large installation

2012-06-11 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

I think mod_gearman is what you're looking for:
http://labs.consol.de/lang/en/nagios/mod-gearman/

Also 1400 checks is not that huge of a setup. You can also specify
check_interval for certain checks which don't need to be executed every now
and then (e.g. Disk Space Utilization, HDD Smart Status or validity of SSL
certificates).
This can help a lot to bring down the load on your Nagios server.

 my nagios installation  has currently 400+ hosts and around 1400 checks.
 As the server load grows, delays are appearing.

 Is any way to move a part of active checks to a second nagios server?
 And in that case how will these two nagios servers exchange data?
 If this is feasible can you point me to some documentation?

 Hi,

   not sure if Nagios addons are normally disussed here, but I have a
 questions relating to nagiosgraph.

 Basically everything works great, except something odd on graphs for
 Unix/Linux systems for Load Average. The graphs themselves look fine,
 but the Avg and Cur values shown below the graphs are things like
 91.34m. Unix load average is normally a fraction, like 0.10 etc.
 Anyone any idea whats going on?


Nagiosgraph uses the 'm' when in the whole graph the load never reaches 1.0
.
So you can take 91.34m as 0.09 load.

As soon as the load has at least once reached 1.0, the smaller loads will
be shown as 0.9, 0.8, etc.


 TBH my main issue is when graphing the RRD in Cacti its also showing
 up with huge number in the millions but the source of the issue seems
 to be something to do with nagiosgraph.

 Any ideas gratefully recieved,

 thanks, Andy.

Whether you use scp, rsync, copy+paste, print out + write new, the postal
way or whatever is up to you.
The important information is that the config files will be compatible so
you have a thousand ways to copy the files from A to B.
Just make sure that the nagios user has the correct permissions on the
files (thats why Andreas suggested rsync I'd say).

Re: [Nagios-users] check_http script is not working

Jeez. I should drink a coffee before responding... ouch.

The syntax is correct, as you see in my post I had a typo in the verisign

# ./check_http -w 5 -c 10 --ssl -H www.verisign.com

So it works. Sorry for false information.

Do as Bram suggested, try to open the website with lynx or curl.

Re: [Nagios-users] Exclude monitoring in holidays

2012-05-03 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

First you create a timeperiod which contains all the holidays you want to
specify. I guess you already did that.

Let's assume you called this timeperiod *myholidays*.
Now you need to exclude this from your usual check timeperiod (24x7 by
default):

# This defines a timeperiod where all times are valid for checks,
# notifications, etc.  The classic 24x7 support nightmare. :-)
define timeperiod{
timeperiod_name 24x7
alias   24 Hours A Day, 7 Days A Week
exclude myholidays
sunday  00:00-24:00
monday  00:00-24:00
tuesday 00:00-24:00
wednesday   00:00-24:00
thursday00:00-24:00
friday  00:00-24:00
saturday00:00-24:00
}

As you see, the important configuration here is the exclude line. It's
actually pretty easy and you can combine many exclusions like this.

Re: [Nagios-users] monitoring oracle grid

2012-04-13 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

Don't know about Oracle Grid, but I have another suggestion.
If I understood correctly, your issue is to monitor the tablespaces which
where added by the DBA's?

If so, you should try the plugin check_oracle_health which has an option to
monitor ALL tablespaces (not just the utilization of one given tablespace):
--mode tablespace-usage

If wanted you can also monitor a single tablespace by using:
--mode tablespace-usage --tablespace MYTABLE

 hello list,

  We've been monitoring our Oracle Database using a plugin called
 'check_oracle'. It's proven quite handy in getting the sizes of tablespaces
 and alerting based on percentages of space used.

  However the DBAs point out that the database is very dynamic and that
 tablespaces are always being added and removed. It seems like they don't
 want to notify us each time this happens. Keeping on top of them to do this
 is a pain.

  They've just installed Oracle Grid and suggested we use nagios to monitor
 that instead. I've never seen or used Oracle Grid so I was hoping someone
 out there with a little more knowledge than me on the topic might have some
 suggestions on how to accomplish this.

  Are there any plugins already out there that are written to take
 information from the oracle grid and parse that for use in nagios?

 Thanks
 Tim

Re: [Nagios-users] performance data configuration doubts

2012-04-08 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

The performance data can be found in the output of the plugin, if the
plugin supports it.
There are two types of output actually.
The first part before the pipe is handled as output, this will be shown
in your Nagios UI and in notifications.
The second part behind the pipe is handled as performance data. With this
data you'll be able to generate graphs.

See here for an example with check_ping:

# ./check_ping -H google.com -w 20,50% -c 50,70%
PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 15.99
ms|rta=15.987000ms;20.00;50.00;0.00 pl=0%;50;70;0

Everything behind the pipe is performance data.

On Sun, Apr 8, 2012 at 5:28 PM, asm...@dms.cat wrote:

 Hi,

   I'd like to be able to log performance data from Nagios but I have
 a couple of doubts.

 First and most fundamental, will I be able to use the normal Nagios
 perfdata support with passive NSCA clients?

 Secondly, I have been reading the documentation, ie
 http://nagios.manubulon.com/traduction/docs14en/perfdata.html

 And it says that a plugin must return additional data after a pipe |
 sign for Nagios to accept any perforamnce data from that plugin. I was
 having a look at the standard plugins and they don't seem to have any
 support for performance data, ie:

 # ./check_ping
 check_ping: Could not parse arguments
 Usage:
 check_ping -H host_address -w wrta,wpl% -c crta,cpl%
  [-p packets] [-t timeout] [-4|-6]

 There is no option to enable performance data in the plugin output. Am
 I getting this wrong or do none of the standard plugins allow any
 performance data capture?

 thanks in advance! Andy.

Re: [Nagios-users] Check_ntp_time problem

Why are you using different NTP servers?

On server 1 you use:
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ntp_time -H 192.168.50.7 -v

On server 2 you use:

Localhost always works as this is the emergency fail-back for ntp.

Re: [Nagios-users] Flexible downtime not working

2012-04-02 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

Hello Deborah,

If you use Flexible Downtimes, don't forget to select Flexible from the
Select-Menu (Type). Otherwise the fixed dates are taken (Start Date, End
Date).

To remove a host or service from a scheduled downtime, click on Downtime
in the left navigation. There you can delete the wanted entry.

Re: [Nagios-users] Flexible downtime not working

2012-04-02 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

Well without blaming anyone, the easiest reason for this to cause would be
a human mistake in interpreting the schedule downtime form (often happens
with fixed/flexible) and by setting a wrong end date.
When you were in the Downtime overview, did you take a look at the
specified End Time column? What was written there before you clicked the
delete icon?

I suggest you go to your var/archives folder and check the logfile of April
1st for the external command, sth like this:

[158804] EXTERNAL COMMAND:
SCHEDULE_SVC_DOWNTIME;hostname;NTP;158695;165895;0;0;3600;Nagios
Admin;test flexible
[173670] EXTERNAL COMMAND:
SCHEDULE_SVC_DOWNTIME;hostname;SSH;173648;184448;1;0;7200;Nagios
Admin;test fixed

These timestamps tell you WHEN the external command was launched, when the
downtime starts and when the downtime ends.
Also, note the 0 and 1 behind the end timestamp. Integer 0 indicates a
flexible downtime, a 1 indicates a fixed scheduled downtime.

To answer your question: Yes, after the end of the scheduled downtime,
normal monitoring should have resumed.

 I clarified the steps that were taken. It turns out that he didn’t use
 Flexible but instead used fixed. However, he’s sure that the dates were set
 to 1st April for the start and end date. 

 So, surely once the date changed to the 2nd April, at the very least,
 normal monitoring should have resumed or is that not correct ?

 Hello Deborah,

 If you use Flexible Downtimes, don't forget to select Flexible from the
 Select-Menu (Type). Otherwise the fixed dates are taken (Start Date, End
 Date).

 To remove a host or service from a scheduled downtime, click on Downtime
 in the left navigation. There you can delete the wanted entry.

 cheers

 Hi, 

  

 We use Nagios 3.2.0 on SLES 10 SP2 to monitor a few hundred services. 

  

 Yesterday, we put a particular service into flexible downtime from around
 7am to 2pm. However, it seems to still be stuck in flexible downtime so any
 alerts after 2pm haven’t been sent out. 

  

 I’m not entirely sure why this is happening as I’ve used this before and
 never had any problems. Has anyone come across this before ? Is there a way
 to kick this service back into normal monitoring ? 

  

 Thanks,

 Deborah

Re: [Nagios-users] Macros do not expand when debugging

2012-03-30 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

Umm

1299 #  2048 = Macros

Right now you've set
1301 debug_level=256

this is to mainly debug the commands. For real debugging of the whole chain
you can use the value -1 (for everything).
Gives you a whole lot of log but that's always good for debugging.

Re: [Nagios-users] question about alert

2012-03-24 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

Hello,

I agree that the server still has plenty of space and also inodes look OK.
So what you need to find out now is the WARNING and CRITICAL thresholds.
These thresholds determine when a warning or critical notification should
be sent by Nagios. The warning threshold is probably set very low.

As this check is a NRPE check, you have to find this information on your
host serv2 (172.19.4.192) in the nrpe.cfg file.
You have to look for the check_command[*] lines and find the check
responsible for the disk space. There you will find the warning (-w) and
critical (-c) thresholds which you can adapt and then restart the nrpe
daemon.

Re: [Nagios-users] How to check the scheduled downtime for a server for a particular past day in the logs to confirm....

2012-03-22 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

Hi

Yes you can check that in the nagios log files.
Here an example:

nagios-01-13-2012-00.log:[1326360203] HOST DOWNTIME ALERT: myhost;STARTED;
Host has entered a period of scheduled downtime

In the logs it's also shown when the host exits the scheduled downtime

 For a particular server there was a complaint that even it was in

 sent a host down notification and the ticket has been raised for the same
 in the integrated ticketing tool. Now I need to check somehow in the logs,
 is that server was really put into downtime on that day for that specific
 duration.

Hey Timothy,

By reading some old mails in the mailing list, I stumbled over a topic
similar to your case from 2011-12-09 (SELinux and RHEL6.2 preventing disk
checks via NRPE). I know you said you didn't use SELinux, but I think it
doesn't hurt if you read it in the archive:

  Well the systems are not identical as the manually launched plugin
  output of yours shows:
 
  [nagios@server1 ~)$ /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk -w20% -c10%
 
  DISK OK - free space: / 24673 MB (98% inode=99%); /dev/shm 12007 MB

  [nagios@server2 /]$ /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk -w20% -c10%
  DISK OK - free space: / 22004 MB (77% inode=96%); /dev/shm 498 MB
  (100% inode=99%); /boot 387 MB (84% inode=99%);
 
 
  Note the /home mount point.
 
  Have you checked the servers for the different mount points? It looks
  like on server2 /sys is seen as a partition or mount point while on
  server1 the check seems to ignore it successfully? Any idea why
  server2 thinks /sys is a partition or mount point?
 
  Can you try to launch it specifically on /sys and output the results
  (on both servers)?
 
  ./check_disk -w 10% -c 5% -p /sys
 
  Then try to exclude /sys from the check:
 
  ./check_disk -w 10% -c 5% -x /sys
 
  By the way the error you're seeing seems to be triggered from this
  code (at the bottom of the source file):
 
  void
  stat_path (struct parameter_list *p)
  {
/* Stat entry to check that dir exists and is accessible */
if (verbose = 3)
  printf(calling stat on %s\n, p-name);

Re: [Nagios-users] Recommendation needed

2012-03-15 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

It depends on your own skills.
If you know a little bit regex (regular expressions), then you're good with
Nagiosgraph. I couldn't live without it anymore.
PNP4Nagios is, as Daniel said, just working out of the box for many
plugins. But on the other hand with Nagiosgraph you're more flexible when
it comes to your own plugins or other special plugins.
Haven't tried munin myself.

 Subject: [Nagios-users] Recommendation needed

 Hi,

 We are planning to implement nagios with a graphing tool. I came
 across nagiosgraph, php4nagios and munin. Among these which is
 relatively easier to configure or are there other graphing tools that
 is recommended?. and which one is popular among nagios users?

 Thanks
 Paras.

Re: [Nagios-users] check_disk '/sys not accessable'

2012-03-12 Thread Claudio Kuenzler


 Doing the next obvious thing and including /dev in the excludes works, and
 is a workaround.


Good, but workarounds aren't that nice ;-)

Before we think too far, could you make a diff of your different nrpe.cfg's?
Maybe you include another file in which the command check_all_disk is
defined a second time?
That would be a simple explanation...


What happens if you add a sudoers entry to allow the nagios user (or the
user you're running the nrpe daemon as) to launch check_disk? Modify the
check_command so you use sudo before the check_disk command.

  Well the systems are not identical as the manually launched plugin
 output of
  yours shows:
 
  [nagios@server1 ~)$ /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk -w20% -c10%
 
  DISK OK - free space: / 24673 MB (98% inode=99%); /dev/shm 12007 MB (100%

  inode=99%); /boot 387 MB (84% inode=99%);
 
 
  Note the /home mount point.
 
  Have you checked the servers for the different mount points? It looks
 like
  on server2 /sys is seen as a partition or mount point while on server1
 the
  check seems to ignore it successfully? Any idea why server2 thinks
 /sys is
  a partition or mount point?
 
  Can you try to launch it specifically on /sys and output the results (on
  both servers)?
 
  ./check_disk -w 10% -c 5% -p /sys
 
  Then try to exclude /sys from the check:
 
  ./check_disk -w 10% -c 5% -x /sys
 
  By the way the error you're seeing seems to be triggered from this code
 (at
  the bottom of the source file):
 
  void
  stat_path (struct parameter_list *p)
  {
/* Stat entry to check that dir exists and is accessible */
if (verbose = 3)
  printf(calling stat on %s\n, p-name);

  printf(DISK %s - , _(CRITICAL));
  die (STATE_CRITICAL, _(%s %s: %s\n), p-name, _(is not

 Hey there,

 is there a recommended way of monitoring batch jobs when the only kind-of

In the batchfile you could add a status output to an external file, which
is then checked by Nagios. Probably the easiest way to do this.



 In that case one should also find out if a certain mail was NOT sent, i.e.
 has
 not arrived in a certain timeperiod.


 While all of this is somehow scriptable, I thought I would ask first if
 there
 exists something to build such a solution upon...

Re: [Nagios-users] check_http 1.4.15

2012-03-01 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

Scott,

Did you read my answer at all (Feb 27th)? You're looking for something that
hasn't been implemented.

Here again the post:

The link you posted is a user-contributed patch for check_http, posted on
the tracker on Jan 3rd 2012.
Nagios Plugins v. 1.4.15 were released in July 2010 so you can be sure that
this patch has not made it into 1.4.15.

You have two options:
- Wait and hope that this patch will make it sometime into the branch and
next version release (good luck with that)
- Re-compile check_http from source with the patch yourself

Re: [Nagios-users] service parameters

2012-03-01 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

Depending on the checks/the plugins you use for the checks, this will
increase the load and decrease performance on the Nagios server. Also, it
doesn't make sense to check some services every minute, for example
check_disk (disk utilization).

I suggest you create a service definition template with the relevant
parameters (check_interval 1, retry_check_interval 1) and use this template
for the 100 services.

Re: [Nagios-users] Host Availability Report Strange Output

2012-02-27 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

You're looking at the report for the last (almost) 8 days, from February
19th till February 26th (included).
If your host was added later than the 19th the report fills up the time,
this is declared as Undetermined.

If you generate a report for, lets say, the last 2days, you shouldn't see
'Undetermined' values anymore.

Re: [Nagios-users] check_http 1.4.15

2012-02-27 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

Hi Scott,

The link you posted is a user-contributed patch for check_http, posted on
the tracker on Jan 3rd 2012.
Nagios Plugins v. 1.4.15 were released in July 2010 so you can be sure that
this patch has not made it into 1.4.15.

You have two options:
- Wait and hope that this patch will make it sometime into the branch and
next version release (good luck with that)
- Re-compile check_http from source with the patch yourself

Re: [Nagios-users] Check_Ping plugin not Incrementing Check Attempt Value

2012-01-31 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

Yes, you're right.

But what's strange in your log are also the missing SOFT states, where are
they?
Did you define the service to be checked only once (max_check_attempts 1),
every minute (check_interval and retry_interval 1) ?

Here's an example of a typical soft-to-hard-change:

Jan 31 05:15:09 nagios-server nagios: SERVICE ALERT: fileserver;Drive Space
F:;WARNING;SOFT;1;f:\ - total: 49.99 Gb - used: 45.80 Gb (92%) - free 4.19
Gb (8%)
Jan 31 05:18:09 nagios-server nagios: SERVICE ALERT: fileserver;Drive Space
F:;WARNING;SOFT;2;f:\ - total: 49.99 Gb - used: 45.80 Gb (92%) - free 4.19
Gb (8%)
Jan 31 05:21:09 nagios-server nagios: SERVICE ALERT: fileserver;Drive Space
F:;WARNING;HARD;3;f:\ - total: 49.99 Gb - used: 45.80 Gb (92%) - free 4.19
Gb (8%)

The 3rd check was handled as HARD state. I'm sure you know how that all
works, but the missing SOFT states are strange anyhow.
Could you post the complete definition of this service? Maybe that'll give
us a hint.

Another question: Is the Ping Check used for the same host for which the
check is defined for (host_name) or is this just a ping to another remote
host? If the line was down, the target host was definitely down as well,
and for Nagios it wouldn't make sense to send notifications for the
services defined on a host which is down.

 Was the parent of this host down as well? In this case, Nagios 'knows'
 that it doesn't make sense to continue checks on the child hosts.


 This host is duel homed using both Ethernet and Infiniband networks. To
 Nagios's point of view the parent of this host is the Ethernet switch that
 it is plugged into, which didn't go down at all during this outage. Host
 Unreachable is a valid ICMP code, so that's why the plugin reported this
 error, not because of any Nagios parent/child relationship.

 So in this situation Nagios should have increased the check attempts count
 by one until the max check attempts threshold was reached, thus sending out
 a service notification. Is this an error in Nagios or the check_ping
 plugin. I'm using Nagios v3.2.3 and check_ping v1.4.15 by the way.

Re: [Nagios-users] NRPE/NSClient++ CheckCPU Error?

2012-01-30 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

In the NSClient++ documentation, CheckCPU works with normal integers as
thresholds (so no %-sign required).

As an alternative, you can also check the CPU Utilization with the
NSClientListener/check_nt plugin:
http://nsclient.org/nscp/wiki/NSClientListener

I use this way of checking the cpu loads/percentages for several hundreds
of Windows servers and it works just fine.

 the check_ping plugin reported that state as CRITICAL, however the it

Re: [Nagios-users] osx nrpe: No output returned from plugin

2012-01-27 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

While Nagios executes the check, do you see a connection on your Mac ?
Is anything written in the syslog on your Mac?

Something seems to be strange about your output:

/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H mac.my.domain -c check_users
USERS OK - 3 users currently logged in |users=0;5;10;0

Take a look at the perfdata, it shows 0 users while the output shows 3
users.

 /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H localhost -c check_users

 Next I tried to configure my nagios server (debian sarge with packaged

 Results in web interface shows:

 All other nrpe hosts are monitoring well.
 I have no other osx nrpe monitored machines as a reference.

 Can anyone offer some ideas (other than upgrade)?

Re: [Nagios-users] Weekley Report for System uptime

2012-01-26 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

I don't know if an addon or something similar exists, but you can also
create a script, which pulls the reports directly from the web-interface.
You can then parse the downloaded data, create pdf's (if wanted) and send
it by e-mail on a monthly schedule.
I did exactly this with a weekly schedule and wrote a how-to here:
http://www.claudiokuenzler.com/blog/117/create-automatic-nagios-availabiltiy-report-pdf

I would be surprised though, if there wasn't a simpler solution to achieve
this.

Re: [Nagios-users] Windows Active Sessions

There's also an existing plugin for this: check_user_count.bat
http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Plugins/Remote-Access/Count-number-of-terminal-server-sessions/details

However I suggest to use checkCounter, as Jim Avery mentioned it. That way
you keep independent of additional files.

Does anyone know how to return the number of active sessions from a

Terminal server? I have installed the NSClient++ service on the

Rab,

if I've understood correctly then you can query a Windows performance
counter.

I use an entry in the NSClient++ config file in the [External Alias]
section that looks like this:-

alias_CheckCounter-ts_act_sess=CheckCounter
Counter:sessions=\Terminal Services\Active Sessions ShowAll
MaxWarn=40 MaxCrit=50

Then on the Nagios side, the command is simply check_nrpe -H
thehostname -c alias_CheckCounter-ts_act_sess

So the command definition in Nagios is:-

define command{
command_namecheck_nrpe
command_line$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -u $ARG1$
}

And the service definition looks something like this:-

define service{
use srv-pnp,generic-service
host_name myhost
service_description TS_Active_Sessions
check_command check_nrpe!-c ts_act_sess
notes Number of Terminal Services Active Sessions
contact_groupsnotify-engineers
}

There are lots of similar ways to do this sort of think using
NSClient++. Precisely how you set it up depends a bit on how
obsessive you are about security and your particular preference.

The method shown above means you can have allow_arguments=0 and
allow_nasty_meta_chars=0 in the [nrpe] section which is good for
security. The downside is that if you need to change the warning
theshold, you have to edit the nsc.ini file on the target system.

hth,

Jim

Re: [Nagios-users] R: check_nt : segmentation fault

2012-01-20 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

It's a bummer you can't upgrade to 3.x...
I'm not sure if anyone still uses Nagios 1.x on a 64bit machine. Maybe this
is a problem of the old Nagios (core) version itself?
You can just for the fun of it install a new Nagios 3.x on a similar
machine and just set up some basic configuration to compare the syslogs of
both machines.

 Please tell me that the nagios version is a typo.

 if not , you should upgrade to version 3 , and the sooner the better .
 Since check_nt is communicating with windows server was there any change on
 the MS platforms ?
 Did you compile the chdck_nt for the old machine , and just copied across ?

Re: [Nagios-users] Parent/Child relationship for HV/VM

2012-01-03 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

I created a fake host (with IP 0.0.0.0) for the cluster with active checks
and notifications disabled.
This way I have one and the same parent for all VM's in that cluster.

Let me show it this way:

switch --- esx1  VM-CLUSTER-1 -- VM1
|  esx2  |  VM2
|  esx3  |  VM3
|  esx4  |- VM4

I hope you see what I'm trying to show.
In text:
Parent of vm's 1-4 is the 'fake' host VM-CLUSTER-1. Parents of VM-CLUSTER-1
are esx1, esx2, esx3, esx4. Parent of esx1-4 is switch.

Positive: You can represent the cluster with a host and in the map it's
clearly seen which physical hosts are part of this cluster.
Negative: The host will stay grey (pending) in Nagios as no check will be
executed on the fake host.

In Nagvis it looks good and it makes sense.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios Graph not displaying correct values

2011-12-14 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

You need to delete the already created RRD file. Once the RRD file was
written, you can't change it anymore (at least not easily).
Find the rrd file for your disk service and delete it, e.g. in
/usr/local/nagiosgraph/rrd
You can find the path to your rrd files in the nagiosgraph.conf file or you
search for the rrd files on your system.
The rrd file should then be recreated with the new map configuration.

Oh just one more thing: You need to remove the old map entry for check_disk
from your map file. Otherwise this one will continue to write the rrd
instead of the new map entry.

On Wed, Dec 14, 2011 at 11:26 AM, James Osbourn james.osbo...@citrix.comwrote:

 I tried adding this map but it did not remove the orginal values from the
 graph and I could not find where they are stored.  I do not think that the
 problem is related to 100 vs 1024 as some manual calculations do not match
 again the value that I am seeing on the graph.

 ** **

 It has been a while since I have played with RRD and I would of expected a
 standard check command from Nagios to graph correctly.  It just seems to be
 the RRD interpolation of the performance data as the check command is
 outputting the correct performance data values.

Re: [Nagios-users] How to monitor memory on cisco router

2011-12-13 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

I've made good experience with check_cisco.pl by Ran Leibman:

https://github.com/ranl/IT/blob/master/Nagios/check-cisco.pl

You have to be aware though, that by default the memory check works
backwards - meaning you must define at how many percent of memory _LEFT_
you want the warning.
But it's easy to rewrite the warning/critical section in the plugin to set
the threshold to the actual usage (e.g. warning at 80%, critical at 90%),
that's what I did for my purposes.

Re: [Nagios-users] check_esx3 and ESX5i...

2011-12-07 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

If I understand you correctly you wonder about the negative value?
This happens to me from time to time as well, especially with the Network
Usage. It's not related to ESXi 5 (the same happened already to ESXi 4.x)
by the way.

I've set a retry_check_interval to at least 3 mins for checks related to
check_esx3.pl. At the second check or at least a minute later the result is
correct.

 On the Nagios web interface, click on Tactical Overview.
 At the end of the page (Monitoring Features) check that Notifications are

 I think it’s a bug within Nagios

  

 I doubt that its a bug in Nagios, as Nagios just uses your system's
 commands to send notifications.
 What is your notification config? can you run the commands the
 notification uses as the Nagios user?
 Is there some security such as SE Linux running?

 You could try adding logging to the Notification command eg add a 
 /var/tmp/Notification.log

 or instead of the Notification command being a direct command, make a
 script for it instead.

 Maybe you don't have the binary or you need to rename the command.

Re: [Nagios-users] notification emails

2011-12-02 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

Did you by accident disable the notifications?

On the Nagios web interface, click on Tactical Overview.
At the end of the page (Monitoring Features) check that Notifications are
green/enabled.

It would make sense as you don't have SELinux and all commands seem to work
from command-line (you also checked them with your Nagios user, not root,
right?).

 I think it’s a bug within Nagios

  

 I doubt that its a bug in Nagios, as Nagios just uses your system's
 commands to send notifications.
 What is your notification config? can you run the commands the
 notification uses as the Nagios user?
 Is there some security such as SE Linux running?

 You could try adding logging to the Notification command eg add a 
 /var/tmp/Notification.log

 or instead of the Notification command being a direct command, make a
 script for it instead.

Re: [Nagios-users] monitor printer from Windows server

2011-12-01 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

Besides of course the Spooler Service, you should also monitor the Windows
Event Log.
I've experienced a lot of driver issues on an old Windows print server
which temporarily caused the affected printer(s) to appear as 'offline'.
Such problems appeared in the event log as Warnings with the message
content something about the driver. That was on a Windows Server 2003, but
I think such driver problems are still logged to the Event Log.

 I query the windows performance counter for number of print jobs
 spooling.  If a printer breaks then usually this counter starts
 ramping up quite rapidly as more and more print jobs get stuck in the
 queue.

 For example, the [external alias] section of your nsc.ini (assuming
 you use NSClient++), you can have:-

 alias_CheckCounter-PrintQJobs=CheckCounter Counter:jobs=\Print
 Queue(_Total)\Jobs ShowAll MaxWarn=250 MaxCrit=500

 Then your service definition would look something like this:-

 define service {
host_name   printserver1,printserver2
service_description PrintQJobs
use srv-pnp,generic-service
check_command   check_nrpe!-c PrintQJobs
max_check_attempts  6
check_interval  15
retry_interval  5
contact_groups  notify-admins
notes   Records the number of Active
 Jobs on a Print Server
register1
 }

 And the command definition I use is just a generic one for any nrpe
 check like so:-

 define command {^M
command_namecheck_nrpe
command_line$USER1$/check_nrpe -H
 $HOSTADDRESS$ -u $ARG1$
register1
 }

 Our servers aren't quite as recent as Windows 7, but I guess the
 counter would still be the same.

 I hope that helps.

Re: [Nagios-users] problem with newly created checkcommand andservice

2011-11-23 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

Did you replace the $ARGX$ options by database etc or did you really
write them like this?


The command definition should look like this:

define command {
command_name database_connection-time
command_line
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_mssql_health
--server=$HOSTADDRESS$--username=$ARG1$--password=
$ARG2$ --port=$ARG3$ --mode=connection-time
}


And the service should then pass the arguments to the command:

define service {
service_description Database Connection Time
check_command
database_connection-time!username!mypasswd!1433
host_name   database server
check_period24x7
contact_groups  nt-admins,linux-admins,admins
event_handler_enabled   0
active_checks_enabled   1
passive_checks_enabled  0
notifications_enabled   1
check_freshness 0
freshness_threshold 86400
use generic-service
}

With this you're passing three arguments to the command (username, password
and port). The value for --server is automatically using the IP-Address (or
DNS name) of your defined host ($HOSTADDRESS$).

 Hi there --

 The command definition for database_connection-time is the following:

 define command {
 command_namedatabase
 _connection-time
 command_line
 /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_mssql_health --server=database--username=
 username --password=password --port=port --mode=connection-time

 There are arguments that are passed to the command. I did not remove the
 exclamation point due to another command that also has
 arguments passed to it. For example:

 define command {
 command_name   check_nis_server
 command_line
 /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nis -H server -d domainname

 has the following definition in the services.cfg file:

 define service {
 service_description   Check NIS Service
 check_command  check_nis_server!
 host_name server
 check_period  24x7
 notification_period   24x7
 contact_groupslinux-admins

 event_handler_enabled 0
 active_checks_enabled 1
 passive_checks_enabled0
 notifications_enabled 1
 check_freshness   0
 freshness_threshold   86400
 use   generic-service

 One thing I came across so far. I had imported the configuration files
 into the NConf utility database of the Nagios server. Among the files that
 were imported was the
 commands.cfg file. During the importation process, the commands.cfg file
 data was imported into a field called checkcommands. When the NConf utility
 was subsequently
 used to generate new files, a checkcommands.cfg file was among the them.

 This file, along with the original commands.cfg file, is located in the
 /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects directory. However, the nagios.cfg file does
 not reference it. One idea that
 I had was to remove the reference within nagios.cfg to commands.cfg, and
 replace it with a reference to checkcommands.cfg, and see what are the
 results.

 What do you think?

 Hi there --

 I completed the installation of Nagios 3.3.1, and I am going through the
 testing process. The server is able to successfully monitor

 our various clients, but e-mail notifications for critical conditions are
 not being sent to the intended recipient. The e-mail server that

 is on the Nagios server is the Postfix message transfer agent.

 The troubleshooting steps that I have taken so far are the following:

 1. I have been able to send a test e-mail from the Nagios server to the
 intended recipient using two different mail commands. The test

 e-mail was done from the command line using the mail and mailx
 commands using the command syntax:

 mail e-mail address  /etc/fstab
 mailx -s test e-mail address  /etc/fstab

 2. I checked the contacts.cfg file, and confirmed the intended recipient
 is listed with the correct address.

 3. I checked the nagios.log, and there were entries that were similar to
 the following:

 [1321385615] Warning: Attempting to execute the command /usr/bin/printf
 %b * Nagios 2.6 *\n\nNotification Type: PROBLEM\nHost: ...

 /bin/mail -…e-mail address resulted in a return code of 127.  Make
 sure the script or binary you are trying to execute actually exists…

 I did a search for the mail binary, and there was none at that location.
 To correct the problem, I created a symbolic that pointed to the actual

 location of the mail binary which was located at the /usr/bin/ folder.

 4. As far as I can tell, all hosts have e-mail notifications enabled on
 them.

 What other steps do I need to take in order to get e-mail notifications
 to work here?

 Thanks.

 %b * Nagios 2.6 *\n\nNotification Type: PROBLEM\nHost: ...
 Date/Time: Tue Nov 15 14:33:35 EST 2011\n |

 /bin/mail -…e-mail address resulted in a return code of 127.  Make sure
 the script or binary you are trying to execute actually exists…

 I did a search for the mail binary, and there was none at that location.
 To correct the problem, I created a symbolic that pointed to the actual

 location of the mail binary which was located at the /usr/bin/ folder.

 4. As far as I can tell, all hosts have e-mail notifications enabled on
 them.

 What other steps do I need to take in order to get e-mail notifications to
 work here?

 Thanks.

Re: [Nagios-users] Monitoring a Microsoft SQL Server

2011-11-17 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

Please let us know if you get it working - I might have to add such a check
soon as well.

To answer your question: 1433 is the standard port of MSSQL so that should
be ok. You can launch nmap or a simple telnet to double-check that.

Re: [Nagios-users] Monitoring a Microsoft SQL Server

2011-11-17 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

The other ports don't appear like typical MSSQL ports.
Do you have by any chance the Windows firewall still active? Maybe the port
is being blocked there?
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/968872

Or do you use a named instance? I found this information on
http://benchmarkitconsulting.com/colin-stasiuk/2009/02/02/what-tcp-port-is-sql-server-running-under/:
If you have a named instance the TCP port is dynamically configured.
I've never seen this in a practical way before though.

Hi there --

I tried connecting to port 1433 of the SQL server, and the connection was
refused. It appears that efforts to connect via the default
port will not work in this case. I took the liberty of running the nestat
-abn command syntax on the console of the SQL server, and
searched for all references to the sqlservr.exe binary. The results are
shown below:

Re: [Nagios-users] Macro values don't seem to be consistent

2011-07-19 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

To follow up on this, I have once more this problem (this time with another
server though) and I activated debugging and started to do some deeper
research.

This time the service 'Disk Space /' on *SERVER21* is in state warning. The
host alias for SERVER21 is SERVER21-DEVL.
The notification looks like this though:

*Service: Disk Space /*
* *

*Host: SERVER31-UAT*
* *

*Address: 10.x.x.x*
* *

*State: WARNING*

As you see, the alias for SERVER31 was taken, instead of SERVER21.


Now if I take a look at *var/objects.cache* the correct alias is used:

define host {
host_name   SERVER21
alias   SERVER21-DEVL


If I take a look at *var/retention.dat* I see something strange:

host {
host_name=SERVER21
alias=SERVER31-UAT
display_name=SERVER21
Taking a further look at retention.dat reveils, that another host took the
alias for SERVER31-UAT:

host {
host_name=SERVER33
alias=SERVER31-UAT
display_name=SERVER33


I am sure the problem comes from here (retention.dat). But can somebody
explain, how such wrong entries are created in retention.dat ?

 This particular one:

 So there's no alias entry either.

 It's the very first time that this happens, and it continues. The service
 is still down (in maintenance) but Nagios continues to send the notification
 with a wrong HOSTALIAS.

Re: [Nagios-users] Macro values don't seem to be consistent

2011-07-19 Thread Claudio Kuenzler

A manual correction in retention.dat didn't work - from somewhere the wrong
alias entries came back. I still don't know from where though.

After deleting the retention.dat file and restarting Nagios, the correct
alias values were shown and now the notifications of the affected servers
are correct again. This is a dirty workaround though, as Nagios needs to
recheck every server and services and looses scheduled host downtimes,
acknowledged states, etc.

It would be great if someone knew from where exactly the alias values came
back into the retention.dat file. It can't be the host definition and
neither objects.cache (as you can see in previous mails).
