Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios Plugin for IPTABLES Monitoring
Hi,
What is the wrong output being returned ? This might give us all a clue as to
the cause of the problem.
When you run the check manually, are you doing this as the same user that
check_nrpe will use ?

Greetings!
Could someone send me nagios plugin which is tested and works well for

But if I execute via ./check_nrpe - H localhost -c check_iptables, it shows

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios Plugin for IPTABLES Monitoring
Ok - if I look at your output, manually, when the plugin is run as the root
user it produces the correct result.
But, you haven't said what the nrpe user is that is running on the remote node
and whether the same manual run of the check produces the same output.
For example, I run remote plugins through nrpe as the nagios user so if I
want to manually test a plugin on the remote node, I would first login as the
nagios user to ensure I've got the same environment that would be used when
running via nrpe. It might be that the variables you have set in the script
only work as the root user. It's never a good idea to test as the root user
but only as the same user as that used by nagios or nrpe.

Deborah

[Nagios-users] Configuration changes not taking effect after restart of Nagios
Hi, I'm using Nagios 3.4.4 on SLES 11 SP2. This has been running for around two months. Recently I needed to change the configuration for a service escalation to remove a contact group that would get sms alerts. I restarted Nagios and everything ran fine. However, it's been reported that recently, the team that shouldn't be getting the sms alerts are still getting them. When I look at the Configuration for service escalations, I can now see two entries for the same escalation, one which is the new , with the sms contact group removed and one with the old config which has the sms contact group included. But when I look at the actual .cfg file for the service escalation definition, there is not mention of the sms group anymore. I've checked, and re-checked and still I can't see why this has happened. I've even stopped Nagios for a short while and restarted it from scratch and this still doesn't make any difference. Has anyone else see any oddities like this where config changes don't seem to take effect after a restart of Nagios ? Is there a cache file I can remove from the configuration forcing nagios to recreate it from scratch so that reads the rest of the .cfg files properly ? Any pointers / ideas on where I go from here would be really appreciated.

What user is your Nagios server running as? Is it the same as the user that
you are using on the command line? Could you post more details about the exact
check_memory command that you are using, there are several of them out there.
The output you are getting from Nagios, is this on the web gui, or in one of
the log files.
It could be many things related to the check scripts itself, who you are
running as where you are running the command. The command line is not always
the same as when the server executes.

[Nagios-users] Use of customized macro in CONTACT definition

_EMAILID

}
Then in my script test I just do echo EMAILID=$NAGIOS__CONTACTEMAILID
This doesn't work. But if I put the same customized macro into a service
definition and change the test script to EMAILID=$NAGIOS__SERVICEEMAILID
it works fine.
According to the docs, I'm specifying this correctly. I'm using nagios 3.2.0 on
SLES10.
So, am I doing something that should work and is a bug and if so is it fixed in
a later nagios version or have I done something silly here...?
Thanks,

Re: [Nagios-users] Use of customized macro in CONTACT definition
Alex,
Thanks, but I set _EMAILID in my contact definition so by echoing it in my
script
via defining a service that calls that script as a plugin which has a contact
defined as test-admin
surely I have set it.
According to the docs, nagios prefixes custom macros with NAGIOS__CONTACT if
it's a contact definition macro which it is. So the environment variable
becomes $NAGIOS__CONTACTEMAILID - note the two underlines are correct and the
_ prefix in the definition is stripped. As documented it states it's to avoid
name collision with $NAGIOS_nagios_macro such as the macro $HOSTALIAS$ would
expand to $NAGIOS_HOSTALIAS as an environment variable that can be used in
scripts such as eventhandlers. But I could also have _HOSTALIAS which would
expand to NAGIOS__SERVICEHOSTALIAS to make a distinction with
NAGIOS_HOSTALIAS...
And as mentioned when i take that _EMAILID and put in my service definition
instead, the same script that now does echo EMAILID=$NAGIOS__SERVICEEMAILID
works but the only difference is I've moved the EMAILID from part of a contact
definition to a service definition yet the docs supports custom macros in a
contact definitions.
By docs I'm referring to the documentation link on the nagios web interface and
search for macros.

Deborah

You said you tried to echo “EMAILID=$NAGIOS__CONTACTEMAILID”, but
echoing this string will not set EMAILID to the value of
$NAGIOS_CONTACTEMAILID. You should set EMAILID, and then echo it afterwards.
Otherwise, looking over your settings they seem to be fine.

[Nagios-users] Flexible downtime not working
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 ?

Re: [Nagios-users] Flexible downtime not working
Hi Claudio, Thanks for info. But I'm a little puzzled. 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 ? In fact I took your advice and removed the fixed downtime manually. These are the nagios log entries I see for this service :- 04-01-2012 00:00:00 04-01-2012 06:00:00 0d 6h 0m 0s SERVICE OK (HARD) 60 rows in dsa.mdf_reservation in last 10 minutes 04-01-2012 06:00:00 04-01-2012 06:46:11 0d 0h 46m 11s SERVICE DOWNTIME START Start of scheduled downtime 04-01-2012 06:46:11 04-01-2012 14:00:10 0d 7h 13m 59s SERVICE CRITICAL (HARD) 0 rows in dsa.mdf_reservation in last 10 minutes 04-01-2012 14:00:10 04-02-2012 11:26:18 0d 21h 26m 8s SERVICE OK (HARD) 331 rows in dsa.mdf_reservation in last 10 minutes 04-02-2012 11:26:18 04-02-2012 11:47:16 0d 0h 20m 58s+ SERVICE DOWNTIME END End of scheduled downtime The last entry is when I manually put the service back to normal monitoring.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios check frequency
Wadud, Surely, a check frequency of 60 minutes is not a good idea since, it could be that the node has been down for an hour before anyone knows anything about it ? I would recommend checking every 10 minutes to start with since that is the frequency you'd want to check if it was a NON-OK status anyway. You can set your notifications to be a longer period between checks which is how I configure Nagios. We check a database every 20 minutes for example, for RAM usage, but only notify every 4 hours. So, users still get the initial alert that ram usage has breached a threshold but are only reminded every 4 hours. And of course, if there is a recovery to an OK status within that 4 hours, users would be emailed as well. It works well for us and doesn't bombard users with emails either which means they are less likely to filter nagios alerts into the Deleted email folder. Of course, you probably have an excellent reason for only checking every 60 minutes which I haven't thought of so this is really just my tuppence worth!

[Nagios-users] Check_tcp - port monitoring best practice
Hi, I just wondered what would be the best practice for monitoring ports. At the moment we specify 10,20,25 seconds for ok, warning and critical alerts. Is that too little - we are seeing a few critical alerts generated and wondered if increasing the thresholds would be better. What does a socket timeout generally mean as some of the ports we're monitoring are on systems which are idle at the moment. Could these be caused by network glitches between the nagios box and the target ports - the systems we're monitoring aren't local on the nagios network but in different parts of the world. I wonder if a local nagios instance would be better to try and reduce socket timeouts as otherwise people oncall are going to get called out quite a lot (?)

Re: [Nagios-users] Notification after Acknowledgment
Andre, I wouldn't acknowledge it unless you plan to actually do something about it. I use escalations which instigate callouts to engineers. When the oncall engineer acks an alert it means they are investigating. It would be pointless surely to ack something which you aren't going to do anything about. Also, think about why you'd ack at 80% if it's just a warning. We have thresholds of 85% for disk usage warnings but in all honesty it's there as exactly that - a warning. We don't send notifications for warnings on disk usage. We just monitor via the web interface.

There is also a Service Escalation configured to send out notifications when this service reaches critical. So at 80 percent I get my notification all is well. I then go ahead and acknowledge the event and in doing so Nagios will not send out any further notifications. Which according to the Nagios logic is correct.

[Nagios-users] Plugins for informatica and microstrategy
Folks, Nagios 3.2.0 / SLES 10 SP2 Does anyone know if there are nagios plugins for monitoring informatica or microstrategy out there. Or could anyone point me to some scripts that I could adapt. I've trawled through google but I get vast amounts of results back which are hit and miss on what I'm trying to achieve. Any pointers and help would be really appreciated.

Re: [Nagios-users] servicedependency problem
Jorn,
You haven't mentioned which version of Nagios is running so I'll assume it's
3.2.0 which is the same as mine...
I think I'd translate your servicedependency definition differently :-
If functionality_LB is in w,c,u state don't do functionality_cl1 because
funcationality_cl1 relies on functionality_LB to be in a non
warning,critical or unknown state for functionality_cl1 to work ?
define servicedependency {
host_name s.test.com
service_descriptionfunctionality_LB --- Parent
dependent_service_description functionality_cl1 --- Child
execution_failure_criteria w,c,u
notification_failure_criteria w,c,u
dependent_hostgroup_name hg_test
}
Think of a parent-child relationship where a child check should only run
if the parent is running ok. And if the parent is in a specific state
(w,c,u) surpress the child check and also notifications. So
functionality_LB is the parent and functionality_cl1 is the child in your
case.
Hope that helps / makes sense.
Regards,
Deborah

Hi,
I have a problem with servicedendencies.
My config looks like this:

dependent_service_description functionality_cl1

Do always functionality_LB on s.test.com. If functionality_LB is in state
w,c,u do functionality_cl1 on hg_test but not if functionality_LB is in

But it doesn't work.
functionality_LB is in state OK.
If I go in the web frontend on the details for check functionality_cl1 I can
see the last check is always less than 3 min ago and new cheks are always
scheduled.
Does anyone know what is going wrong here?

[Nagios-users] Differences of certain parameters set in Nagios.cfg
Folks, I'm running nagios 3.2.2 on SLES 10 SP2 # HOST AND SERVICE PERFORMANCE DATA PROCESSING COMMANDS # These commands are run after every host and service check is # performed. These commands are executed only if the # enable_performance_data option (above) is set to 1. The command # argument is the short name of a command definition that you # define in your host configuration file. Read the HTML docs for # more information on performance data. service_perfdata_command=command to process performanace data and # HOST AND SERVICE PERFORMANCE DATA FILE PROCESSING COMMANDS # These commands are used to periodically process the host and # service performance data files. The interval at which the # processing occurs is determined by the options above. service_perfdata_file_processing_command=command to process performance data I'm using the parameter service_perfdata_file_processing_command to process performance data for pnp4nagios. The first parameter service_perfdata_command is commented out. But could I still use that first parameter? It would solve a big issue I'm having if I could use it as I need to keep a legacy set of performance data for reports at the same time as being able to graph a a subset of the same data. Any help / pointers would be much appreciated.

[Nagios-users] More than one command defined
Hi,
I have a need to run two different commands when processing the performance
data from Nagios (3.2.2)
I want the first command to run the process-perfdata.pl script from
pnp4nagios and the second command to log various things to a different log
file.
The reason is that we've only just had a requirement to process performance
data for pnp4nagios graphing. But historically we've created our own
performance data log
which is then used within a database to produce SLA reports developed
in-house (no graphing just numbers produced for the SLA reports)
If I do the following I don't get an errors when I run nagios -v nagios.cfg
... :-
define command {
command_name process-service-perfdata-file
command_line first command - process performance data for
pnp4nagios
command_line second command - log different data to a different
file
}
I'd like to avoid creating a script with both commands in if I can help it
as it's extremely useful to keep it simple and visible in the
misccommands.cfg file.
Perhaps there is some other way I can do this or is a script with both
commands really the only way ?
Any help / pointers would be really appreciated. If I'm being dense about
this and the answer is staring right at me feel free to say so!
Thanks,
Deborah

Re: [Nagios-users] More than one command defined
Thanks for the input everyone. Much appreciated.
I'll try with merlin and see where that goes. And the script idea as well.
The trouble is Nagios is a complicated beast (to me anyway). Coupled with
that and getting pnp4nagios working as well this week, my head hurts from
config file overload :)
Anyway all food for thought!
Thanks again.

You could use Merlin and set the perfdata_table option in the database
section of the daemon compound. Then you can grab the perfdata items
from the merlin database. Note that you'll have to drop old entries
from that table every once in a while though, as the table will surely
grow huge otherwise.
That doesn't really let you have things visible in the misccommands.cfg
file though, so you'll have to pick your poison on this one.

[Nagios-users] Best use of check_ntp_time plugin
Folks, We've had a problem recently where the timestamp has been drifting hours ahead on the VM box running nagios. (v3.2.0 with SLES 10 SP2) As a consequence I'm setting up the plugin check_ntp_time to ensure that the clock on the nagios monitoring box doesn't drift too far ahead (or behind.) without telling us so that we can do something about it. For the threshold for warning and critical, I was thinking of -w 30 and -c 60 - would this seem sensible ? And also, if the alert did become critical because the drift was greater than 60 seconds what would be a sensible way of fixing this without human intervention. I thought that an event handler might be the way to go here that would restart the ntpd daemon. I'd be interested to know what your thoughts are / whether there is a better way ? thanks, deborah *** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

[Nagios-users] Timeperiods and oncall rotation with UK Public holidays
Folks,
I'm using SLES 10 and Nagios 3.2.0.
We have 4 oncall engineers which rotate over a 4 week period, each being
oncall one week at a time.
The oncall period is 17:30 - 08:00 each working day and then the whole
period for any weekend or UK public holiday.
My definitions are :-
define timeperiod{
timeperiod_name 24x7
alias 24 Hours A Day, 7 Days A Week
sunday 00:00-24:00
monday 00:00-24:00

wednesday 00:00-24:00
thursday00:00-24:00
friday 00:00-24:00
saturday00:00-24:00

This is for all normal monitoring of our systems.
Each oncall engineer is defined :-

[Nagios-users] Business objects plugin
Folks, Does anyone know if a plugin exists for Business Objects. We have a requirement to replicate end users and their use of Business Objects so that we can determine if they are receiving a service within their agreed SLA. Basically, we want Nagios to connect to the BO environment and actually run a BO report in the same way as the end user. I've googled but so far not seen anything that can help. If anyone has any ideas, pointers etc, it would be really appreciated. thanks, deborah *** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

[Nagios-users] Service latency suddenly through the roof
Hi, I'm running nagios 2.0b4, on suse 9.3. The plan is to upgrade to 3.0.6 (nagios) and SLES10 sp1. Recently, during some checking of the data that I collect for SLA reporting, I noticed the service latency has gone through the roof! The only recent change I've made is to put ssh checks as a host check. This was to filter ssh checks away from the service problem web interface as we do have to shut nodes down from time to time but we don't want to be alerted as a service problem. I then had to introduce check_dummy as the service check (otherwise the pre-flight check outputs hundred of lines stating the no services was associated with host). The check_dummy service check is only done on a Sunday once per host as it's a dummy check. I thought this would put less load on Nagios (please correct me if I'm wrong) We regard service problems to only be checks against our databases. Does anyone know of what could set this servicelatency to suddenly increase like this ? regards, deborah *** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

Re: [Nagios-users] Service latency suddenly through the roof
Andreas, Thanks for your reply. I completely agree with the suggestion of upgrading. I'm currently migrating configs across to Nagios 3.0.6 with the hope of switching to this box in about a week. I was hoping to keep the configs on the nagios 2.0b4 box fairly consistent with the new box so we can run them in parallel for about a month before trashing it. Should I expect latency to be a lot lower with the new version of Nagios ? I'm currently looking at the logs produced so far for the new version to see what the latency levels are like. regards, deborah -Original Message- From: Andreas Ericsson [mailto:a...@op5.se] Sent: 23 March 2009 14:02 To: Deborah Martin Cc: 'nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net' Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Service latency suddenly through the roof Deborah Martin wrote: Hi, I'm running nagios 2.0b4, on suse 9.3.

[Nagios-users] Host checks instead of service checks
Hi Folks, Currently, the main nagios box (running old version of SuSE) and Nagios 2.0b4 is running just with service checks, one of which is an ssh check (we don't allow ping) So in the web interface, I see all hosts as up. However, I've built a new box (which hopefully will replace the above) with SLES 10SP1 and Nagios 3.0.6. I've put the same config files (services.cfg and hosts.cfg) on the this new system. But now the hosts all show as Pending. So I then moved the ssh check from a service check to a host check and can see that the more hosts I move the less hosts are pending. That's good so far... But, when I run the pre-flight check (/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v nagios.cfg), I now get warnings to say some hosts don't have any service checks associated with it! This is true as some nodes will only have ssh checks against them whilst others will have other checks against them. I'd rather it didn't warn me as I have hundreds of hosts appear in the pre-flight check warnings and it now looks incredibly untidy to see all this. How can I get rid of these warnings ? I'm probably missing something here so any help would be appreciated. I'm wondering for example, if I should force the initial state to be UP for hosts rather than moving the ssh service check to a host check. But then what would happen if the service check found a node was down - would it reflect that in the host problems ? regards, deborah *** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

Re: [Nagios-users] Host checks instead of service checks
Folks, I should have also mentioned that the reason for doing this is to filter out host problems separately to service problems. If I leave ssh checks as a service and 44 nodes are switched off, I see 44 ssh critical alerts under Service Problems. I'd rather see 44 ssh critical alerts under Host Problems. (I thought my method below would a good way to filter these out). When we resize database systems, we only want to know about critical alerts for the database as a service problem (we may reduce a DB by 50 nodes but DB is still valid for monitoring) regards, deborah _ From: Deborah Martin Sent: 16 March 2009 15:06 To: 'nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net' Subject: Host checks instead of service checks Importance: High Hi Folks, Currently, the main nagios box (running old version of SuSE) and Nagios 2.0b4 is running just with service checks, one of which is an ssh check (we don't allow ping) So in the web interface, I see all hosts as up. However, I've built a new box (which hopefully will replace the above) with SLES 10SP1 and Nagios 3.0.6. I've put the same config files (services.cfg and hosts.cfg) on the this new system. But now the hosts all show as Pending. So I then moved the ssh check from a service check to a host check and can see that the more hosts I move the less hosts are pending. That's good so far... But, when I run the pre-flight check (/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v nagios.cfg), I now get warnings to say some hosts don't have any service checks associated with it! This is true as some nodes will only have ssh checks against them whilst others will have other checks against them. I'd rather it didn't warn me as I have hundreds of hosts appear in the pre-flight check warnings and it now looks incredibly untidy to see all this. How can I get rid of these warnings ? I'm probably missing something here so any help would be appreciated. I'm wondering for example, if I should force the initial state to be UP for hosts rather than moving the ssh service check to a host check. But then what would happen if the service check found a node was down - would it reflect that in the host problems ? regards, deborah *** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

Re: [Nagios-users] Host checks instead of service checks
Folks, Whilst using check_dummy as a service check does resolve the pre-flight warnings, it's not the solution I think I'm looking for. The total number of service checks now includes the dummy checks which i've chosen to always exit as UP so that it doesn't show up as a service problem - which to me doesn't sound like the right way to do this. I want all service checks to be useful service checks rather than have checks which would need to be ignored as they don't return anything useful as with check_dummy - I wouldn't ever use that check in any Nagios SLA reporting. What I really want to do is the following : Hosts -- ssh check -- When CRITICAL alert under Host problems only. The docs show a distinct difference for behaviour between Nagios 2.0b4 and Nagios 3.0.6. From Nagios 2.0b4, under Host Definitions:- check_command: This directive is used to specify the short name of the http://193.35.206.171/nagios/docs/xodtemplate.html#command command that should be used to check if the host is up or down. Typically, this command would try and ping the host to see if it is alive. The command must return a status of OK (0) or Nagios will assume the host is down. If you leave this argument blank, the host will not be checked - Nagios will always assume the host is up. This is useful if you are monitoring printers or other devices that are frequently turned off. The maximum amount of time that the notification command can run is controlled by the http://193.35.206.171/nagios/docs/configmain.html#host_check_timeout host_check_timeout option. From Nagios 3.0.6 check_command: This directive is used to specify the short name of the http://193.35.206.117/nagios/docs/objectdefinitions.html#command command that should be used to check if the host is up or down. Typically, this command would try and ping the host to see if it is alive. The command must return a status of OK (0) or Nagios will assume the host is down. If you leave this argument blank, the host will not be actively checked. Thus, Nagios will likely always assume the host is up (it may show up as being in a PENDING state in the web interface). This is useful if you are monitoring printers or other devices that are frequently turned off. The maximum amount of time that the notification command can run is controlled by the http://193.35.206.117/nagios/docs/configmain.html#host_check_timeout host_check_timeout option. The difference is highlighted in RED. So on changing the ssh check from a service to a host definition (to prevent PENDING on the hosts), the pre-flight warnings now complain there are no services associated with the hosts. On big systems here (100 nodes+) this makes the pre-flight output really unreadable and not really accurate as surely we should be able to choose whether something is a host check or service check but not have to define BOTH! Ultimately, I just want to filter SSH check problems to appear under Host problems rather than under Service problems so users can easily spot other service problem issues and not have to trawl through 100's of lines of output in the web interface. Believe me, Nagios web interface users can be a fickle bunch! A switch to tell Nagios to not complain about this would be really useful unless anyone thinks of a good reason why this would be a bad idea. any help / pointers would be appreciated, even if it's to tell me politely how stupid i'm being - I can take it! regards, deborah _ From: Deborah Martin [mailto:deborah.mar...@kognitio.com] Sent: 16 March 2009 15:34 To: 'Richard Quintin' Cc: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Host checks instead of service checks Thanks Richard.

[Nagios-users] Is there a size limit in the Email directive of a contact definit ion
Hi, Just wondered if anybody knew of a limit as to the number of email addresses or rather is there a limit to the number of characters I can specify in total for the email directive in the contact definition. I want to add four addresses which are of the form mobilenumber@mail2txt160.net. I've looked at the docs and there is no mention of a character limitation but I'm thinking that doesn't mean there isn't one (it could just be so large that it's not likely to ever be reached perhaps (?) or it's just not documented!) Or would it be better practice to create four new separate contacts and then add those to the contact groups directive in my service definition ?

[Nagios-users] Service check timeouts
Hi, I have a service check plugin which basically runs a query against our database (It's not a database that has standard plugins already in existence e.g Oracle, Mysql, SQL Server etc etc ) which I've written. Based on it's success or failure, most errors come from the database so I can manipulate the error handling tell Nagios what it's exit status should be. However, every now and again I get an error 'Service Check Timed Out' and the exit status changes to CRITICAL automatically. But I'd rather it didn't Is there a way to manipulate this exit status - I'd rather it was set to UNKNOWN. As far as I understand it, this error is based on the plugin itself having a timeout which I've set to 120 seconds (nagios.cfg: service_check_timeout=120) The timeouts we set for the database vary between 15 and 90 seconds (depending on the each database requirement for this) Or is there a way of looking at the $SERVICEOUTPUT$ string returned by Nagios and grepping for 'Service Check Timed Out' and manipulating the exit code that way ? I'm using v2.0b4 but I know there is a way of using the macros as environment variables in later versions of Nagios. If I can't resolve it until I upgrade then that's fine. If anyone has any pointers on the way forward for this it would be really appreciated. thanks, deborah *** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

if you define the check_command in the template, but want to change the

the service definition overrides the template definition. Very useful

Re: [Nagios-users] service templates
P.S I don't use 3rd party tools for my nagios configs as I've never found
them to have
all of what I wanted in a config tool. I think the generic-service template
comes as
part of the sample configs that come with Nagios which is where I got the
idea on how
to generate my own customised templates.

First off, please do not REPLY to a message if you're not replying tothat message. Post a NEW message. Secondly, Nagios' design separates Hosts from Services. Nagios does not actively monitor hosts. Yes, it checks hosts, but it does not monitor them. What's the difference? Think of hosts as points or intersectionsalong a road, services as being houses along the side of these roads. Nagios only monitors houses (services). If for some reason it cannot reach a house, it checks to see if there is a problem in the road (host)preventing it from getting to the house (service), and reports these findings to you. If you wantNagios to work like CA's product, that can be done as well, but you'll lose ther ability to determine where along the roadway is the problem.

RE: [Nagios-users] service dependencies problem
One of your (many) definitions is :
define servicedependency{
host_name sonorys_gateway
service_description PING
dependent_host_name sonorys_checkpoint
dependent_service_description PING
notification_failure_criteria c,u
execution_failure_criteria c,u
I don't think you can have dependency_service_description being the same as
the 'service_description' as it will just loop.
In the nagios -v check, you should probably have also seen under 'Checking
service dependencies' an error
along the lines of 'dependency definition for service 'yourservice' on
host yourhost is circular (it depends on itself'
I've just tested this scenario and errors are the same as yours.
I also noticed the errors only occur when the dependent service is the same.
When different, there doesn't appear to be a problem.
Test this! Remove all of the definitions so that you are only left with the
ones that match in both the service_description and the
dependent_service_description and run the nagios -v check again. You'll get
the
same errors again. Then add one definition where the descriptions were
different. You'll see the difference.

RE: [Nagios-users] Is this possible: Debugging Nagios -- logging commands and their exit codes.
Have you tried manually running the plugin on the command-line ?
'No output' usually means Nagios doesn't get a result back that it
understands.
A manual test of the plugin may tell you why...

Subject: [Nagios-users] Is this possible: Debugging Nagios -- logging
commands and their exit codes.
Using Nagios 2.1. When adding things to the .cfg files sometimes things
go wrong. The output of a plugin is then for example 'No output'. This
is NOT very usefull at all. It would be usefull to see which cmd is
really being executed. Am I missing here something or.
Older msgs on the mailinglist (don't know for which versiion) suggest
trying to log things usings commands like 'ps -efUnagios PID or top
and putting things in a logfile. Doesn't workl that well for me.
The only thing I can come up with is the following. Hopefully you can
provide me with a better solution.
Extending the command_line option for a command.
define command {
command_name check_ping
command_line command_to_exec
}
When I change it to the following I get things logged in a logfile
define command {
command_name check_ping
command_line /bin/echo command_to_exec /tmp/ping.log
}
Of course this is NOT a very good solution. Though the commands you
want to log is added to the logfile but the command is NOT executed.
UNFORTUNATELY the following is NOT possible.
command_line command_to_exec ; echo command_to_exec
/tmp/ping.log
Everything after the ; is removed be Nagios (checked objects.cache).
The only thing I can imagine which hopefully wil do the trick is the
followig.
define command {
command_name check_ping
command_line /user/home/jbessels/log_and_exec_cmd.sh
command_to_exec
}
The log_and_exec_cmd.sh script should do the following:
Parse the commandline args supplied to log_and_exec_cmd.sh to get
the cmd to execute (will be called $cmd)
echo $cmd /tmp/logfile
execute $cmd and store contents in pluginoutput variable
store exit code of cmd run in returncode variable
echo $pluginoutput variable /tmp/logfile
echo $pluginout
exit $returncode
The last two lines are crucial I think. Because command_line has to
return an ascii string and and exitcode.
Does perhaps anyone have created such a script. If so I would be VERY
happy if you could supply me with it. Haven't that much time to figure
it all out..
If what I do is nonsense and can be accomplished in a better way I
would like to know also.
PS. I had hoped Nagios would have had support for this kind of things
out of the box, but maybe I didn't RTFM thoroughly enough.
Grtz,
Jan Bessels

[Nagios-users] DEPENDENCIES
Hi, I have dependencies working mainly fine. However, i'm still not 100% satisfied that its behaving correctly. Using Nagios 2.0rc2 on suse 9.2 (i've used later releases for testing but behaviour is the same) I have one main service which is a database connection plugin to ensure the database is up and running. I have 3 additional dependency plugins which do various other checks such as ram and disk usage. When the main database plugin check goes to warning or critical I want to suppress email notifications on the 3 remaining checks as there is no point in running these (they won't return anything useful apart from timeouts). However, this rarely happens. Usually, I get the main check email notification plus 1 other email notification from one of the dependencies (though it may not always be the same dependency) Is there something i'm missing here ? Why can't it supress all three as i would expect ? Do i need to set a parameter setting somewhere ? My main plugin checks every 5 mins with the dependencies every 20 mins. Should i change these timings to something different and if so why ? This is driving me somewhat insane and any pointers / help would be very welcomed. regards, deborah This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

[Nagios-users] Plugin return codes
Hi, I'm using Nagios 2.0b4 on Suse 9.2 I have some plugins which do various database checks such as disk usage. In the plugin, I want to define the exit codes depending on the status of the check. I noticed that there is an exit status of STATE_DEPENDENT (defined in utils.sh which comes with the nagios plugins package) When should this exit status be used. I'm guessing it should be when a service check is a dependency and its master service has failed and therefore the dependency should exit with this status. Am I correct ? The documentation lists the other exit state codes (0,1,2,3) but doesn't mention 4. I've checked 2.0b6 docs as well. BTW - When i use the STATE_DEPENDENT exit code for a dependency service check I get the error 'Return code of 4 is out of bounds' I have the dependency service check defined in dependencies.cfg Any pointers / help would be very appreciated. thanks, deborah This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

RE: [Nagios-users] Dependency issue
thanks for the tip but this doesn't work. It seems that its very dependent on when the next scheduled check will be. If I set max_check_attempts to 5 for services B or C, and then have max_check_attempts set to 1 on service A, it makes no difference. Service B or C could still be scheduled to be checked before service A. In fact, on the first check attempt for service B, for example, a critical alert is generated. I want Nagios to detect that Service B or C is a dependency on Service A, and then if Service A is alerting, suppress alerts for Service B or C. But nagios doesn't seem to do any kind of dependency lookup if a dependency is already alerting. Kind of defeats, in my view, the logic of dependencies. There is no point in Nagios telling me that Service B or C is down, when Service A is down. Service A must be UP for any of its dependencies to work. If however, Service A is OK, then yes - Service B or C should alert if necessary. If I were to have 20 dependencies against a master service, I don't want 20 potential alerts being generated! Plus I want to know the EXACT cause of the problem not have to hunt it down every time. Isn't that one of the points of Nagios - to be able to finely tune plugin checks so that we can easily investigate a problem ? It seems that I needn't bother with dependencies if this is how it's going to work. Does anyone else agree / disagree because it seems to me that either the docs are not explaining dependencies correctly, or Nagios is not behaving correctly.

I have a sound card attached to the server, and issuing this command by
hand I can hear the sound. But when the test server is down the command
is not executed. The machine is an ubuntu 5.10 running kernel
2.6.12-10-k7, and nagios-mysql 1.3-cvs.20050402-4ubuntu3.
Please let me know if you need further information. Thanks in advance
for any help or hint.
Best regards,

RE: [Nagios-users] Sound notification on nagios server
probably a dumb question - but why have the sound on your server and not through a client front-end ? Surely a nagios server would be hosted in a computer room somewhere and the clients would be those monitoring from their desktops ? Or why not have a web browser open on the server then ? -Original Message- This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

RE: [Nagios-users] CGI error in 2.0b4 2.0b5
Actually, just looking at my 2.0b4 build directory under sample-config and nagios.cfg states [EMAIL PROTECTED]@/nagios.log so i don't think that can be the issue. regards, deborah -Original Message- From: Ton Voon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 23 November 2005 14:44 To: Nagios Users Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] CGI error in 2.0b4 2.0b5 On 23 Nov 2005, at 13:49, Marcel Mitsuto Fucatu Sugano wrote: On Tue, 2005-11-22 at 11:47 +0100, Hans Veneman wrote: In about 3% of the requests (for any of the cgi's) they give an internal server error.

I notice that the error Hans got from the strace was for nagios.log. However, the sample configuration file for Nagios 2.0b5 has status_file=nagios.dat (used to be status.log). Could you be using a Nagios 1 config file for a Nagios 2 install?

RE: [Nagios-users] Non-US date formats in CGIs
Ian, On my version of nagios (2.0b4) in nagios.cfg there is the following set of options you can tweak for the date option. # DATE FORMAT OPTION # This option determines how short dates are displayed. Valid options # include: # us (MM-DD- HH:MM:SS) # euro(DD-MM- HH:MM:SS) # iso8601 (-MM-DD HH:MM:SS) # strict-iso8601 (-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS) # date_format=euro This might help although i've never used earlier versions of nagios regards, deborah -Original Message- From: Ian Chard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 23 November 2005 16:23 To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] Non-US date formats in CGIs Hi, Is there any way to coax the CGIs, specifically when you set downtimes, so that they use the British date format (DD/MM/)? - Ian -- Ian Chard, Unix Network Administrator | E: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Systems and Electronic Resources Service | T: 80587 / (01865) 280587 Oxford University Library Services| F: (01865) 242287 --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
