Hi List,
I am in charge for a big network infrastructure and at the moment we
evaluate solutions for our nagios monitoring with configuration via
monarch. I really would like to create the new solution with nagios and
puppet. There is only one big problem. In our infrastructure there are a
lot of switches connected together like this:
| switch-1 |
/ \
/ \
/ \
| switch-2 |-| switch-3 |
| |
| |
| switch-5 |-| switch-4 |
Hi Lucy,
Although you have redundant physical interconnects for your switches,
Spanning Tree, or Rapid Spanning Tree or even Multiple Spanning Tree
protocols are taking effect and (probably) setting switch-1 as the Root
with the other switches set to a higher spanning tree priority value -
in any case, at layer two, during normal operation you don't have
multiple active parents in the layer-2 infrastructure.
While you have redundancy, physically for your infrastructure, you are
only using those links (for each VLAN at least), in a non-redundant way.
Setup your Nagios child / parent relationships as per spanning tree has
worked out how it should be when everything is up, add some monitoring
for spanning-tree within Nagios, that way everything will work, and
you'll always be informed when something is wrong.
Thanks
Giles
All the time I try to configure this switch connections in nagios with
more than one parent, where the hosts are at the same time parent and
child, I get the following error:
ERROR: The host 'switch-2' is part of a circular parent/child chain!
...
I know by now that this is because nagios has to be hierarchically, but
I do not understand why. Maybe somebody could tell me exactly why I
can’t configure this in nagios or better could tell me how I can do it.
I only found the explanation that this could conduct a deadlock. Maybe I
am wrong, but is this not a likely network infrastructure? At last it is
no problem to build something like this with STP running in your network.
Great Thanks in advanced
Lucy

Apache might run on port 80 and / or 443 - but, to be honest, it could run on *ANY* port, you just need to allow the relevant access from your Nagios system to access that. For each and every check, you need to evaluate how you are checking and create a rule for that particular access.

I expect the API would allow for queueing of SMSs, it's a much easier solution than running a bank of SMS gateways yourself. On 2012-02-01 15:53, Marco Borsani wrote: How does it work with Nagios ?

I haven't had much luck with this. Microsoft doesn't expose hardly
any of this data via WMI or any other interface that I've found.
I haven't looked at Powershell yet, mostly because many of my
servers do not have it installed (2003 -vs- 2008).
The best I've been able to do is watch the event log for DHCP
server complaints about a scope getting close to consumed. Even
*that* has been problematic, as the DHCP server service seems to
arbitrarily decide when it wants to complain. I ended up writing
a custom plugin that watches the event log for those events, parsing
the output, and deciding on whether it's appropriate to alert.
I don't think you'll have much trouble getting this via SNMP. It is
defined in the MIB on a per-scope basis, suggest you go a snmpwalk on
the OID I gave earlier and see what you get.

I'm trying to use check_UDP (nagios-plugins 1.4.5) 1.80 but it keeps asking for a send/expect string and I've no idea what this is meant to be? The target server is running syslog and the check so far has just been failing with this: /opt/tools/libexec/check_udp -H 192.168.75.131 -p 514 With UDP checks, a send/expect string must be specified. So I guess my question is simply what should the following be set to: --send=STRING --expect=STRING Hi, UDP is a connectionless protocol, because of this you can't just check to see whether the port is open like you can with TCP (which has a port open handshake -- SYN -- SYN/ACK etc...) I'm guessing that the --send string is what you will send to the UDP port in question and the --expect string is what you will expect back. After a quick review of UDP/514 (syslog) and RFC3164, it appears to me that you cannot check this port using that particular check, because the syslog port will not report back to the sender in anyway (at least from what I can see). Therefore, I would recommend that you try a packet capture to verify this is the case and research another method of monitoring syslog, it could be a passive check to see how old the latest logs in your syslog are with a use of MARK entries in the syslog to ensure it's refreshed from time to time. -- Best Regards, Giles Coochey NetSecSpec Ltd NL T-Systems Mobile: +31 681 265 086 NL Mobile: +31 626 508 131 GIB Mobile: +350 5401 6693 Email/MSN/Live Messenger: gi...@coochey.net Skype: gilescoochey smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature -- The ultimate all-in-one performance toolkit: Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE: Pinpoint memory and threading errors before they happen.

This link seems to have much of the information you might need: http://nagios.manubulon.com/index_info.html I'm sure there are specific Cisco check plugins out there as well.

Re: [Nagios-users] Unable to get notifications running for SNMP check.
Firstly, the tests you show as examples appear to be working just fine (though note it appears you are running them as root, so you won't know what happens when they're run as the Nagios user). Secondly, you should check what the notification options are for your contacts and the service. Check the service_notification_commands, service_notification_options, service_notitification_period for the contact, as well as the following for your service: notifications_enabled, notification_options, notification_period also check the contacts for the host that is assigned to the service. You may need to dig a little further if you are using templates, but you can override these by supplying them with the appropriate contact, service host. Further information can be found in the documentation.

TIP: If you make your configuration a CVS or SVN repository then you would be able to track exactly what configuration change you made that caused this problem.

Re: [Nagios-users] Retry interval on hard states
This is expected behavior. I'm curious, what kind of environment are you in when up to 5 minute delay in notification of recovery is 'substantial'? Hi Marc, I know I'm not the target of your question, but... Some require 5 figure uptime reports for their SLAs, and a 99.999% SLA is often requested by users and customers. That only gives us 315.36 seconds of downtime per year per service. In that scenario a 5 minute delay, in order to use any of Nagios' performance monitoring, is far too large for the margin of error. That is an extreme case, but even 4 9s SLAs will suffer as a result. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Re: [Nagios-users] Display Error
Giles, It is running because I have MRTG running on the same server and I can browse to the graphs. OK, nice, I forgot you mentioned that. Still looks like an apache problem, I assume you are using a virtual host / host header type set up. And that would need to be checked. When Nagios has a problem or isn't running, Apache normally gives a different error to the one you have described. So from here, it looks like an Apache configuration problem.

escalation_period workhours
}
When I try to start nagios, it tells me that it Could not expand
services specified in service escalation.
The plan is to send a mail to defaultContact 24x7 and to groupNetwork
only in the working hours. When I remove the service escalation, I only
get notifications when the host is down (guess this is by design).
Is there any other way how I can achieve this?
Any help is very much appretiated.
Cheers
Klaus

Re: [Nagios-users] check_snmp_mem.pl
What is $USER7$ macro? In your resource.conf?
Likely to be the Community string, as that is what resource.conf is generally
for.
check_snmp_mem.pl -H 41.211.3.218 $USER7$ communitystring -w -I -c 80 98
Is what your command translates too, which wouldn't work.

Hi Guys,
I am having difficulties using this plugin. I can't get it to work. Can you
guys help me please. What is syntax in the commands.cfg file and in the service
file of the cisco router I intend to monitor. This is what I have
commands.cfg
define command{
command_name check_snmp_mem_v1
command_line $USER1$/check_snmp_mem.pl -H $HOSTADDRESS$ $USER7$ $ARG1$ -w
$ARG2$ -c $ARG3$ $ARG4$
}
In my service definition file
define service{
use core-rservice
host_name core
service_description Memory
check_command check_snmp_mem_v1!communitystring!-I!80!98
}
This is the result I get in nagios web cgi
Memory

(Return code of 127 is out of bounds - plugin may be missing)
I reckon I am not doing something right because the plugin works from the
command line i.e.
snmp:/usr/local/nagios/libexec# ./check_snmp_mem.pl -H 41.211.3.218 -C
communitystring -I -w 40% -c 90%

Re: [Nagios-users] (no subject)
G, When I installed NRPE recently I used the xinetd installation, whereas it looks like you're utilising the nrpe in daemon mode. Therefore I may not be of as much help here, but I would check things such as SeLinux configuration (try putting it in warn mode and see whether you still get this error) and iptables configuration on the box. When I performed this test, I actually only did it from the Nagios monitoring hosts (as that was indicative of my requirements), you might want to check that test as well.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios Looking Glass 1.1.0 beta 1 released
Andy, I thought I'd take a look at your project, as I have some interest in having some sort of dynamic portal which customers can query and I've seen your project surface time-and-time again on this list. I've implemented the 'hack' to limit which hosts a particular user can see, but notice that they still see the Overall Network Health still shows the values for all hosts services, rather than those in the currently selected filter. It would be much better if the granularity for this tool followed the 'Nagios way' and used the contact group for all visibility. Unfortunately this is very important for our environment. In terms of the license, what if I want to remove all references to Nagios Looking Glass, your name etc... from the portal interface? Is that going to be an issue? I'm not talking about removing any copyright or license information from the source files itself, just the customer facing side.

[Nagios-users] Internet Connectivity Monitoring
Hi List, As part of our Internet Connectivity monitoring I monitor a set of websites on the Internet from a diverse number of locations geographically. There are some issues with this: (a) I have to avoid sites that use Content Delivery Systems such as Akamai, because as we host such boxes ourselves the websites actually load from local servers which we host rather than the intended geographic location. Most large sites such as www.yahoo.com and www.google.com use these content delivery systems. (b) I have to avoid small sites which often go down due to lack of redundancy in their implementation. (c) I have to avoid sites which might get pretty annoyed that I'm pulling their homepage once every 10-15 minutes just to see if I'm getting good access. I would like to hear from others on the list as to what they do to check Internet Connectivity and whether they do any smart stuff to include multiple connectivity checks as a single service check. What do you do? Thanks Giles - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Re: [Nagios-users] nagvis error nagvis
I have fixed the problem. I had to enable check_external_command=1 in nagios.cfg. After that, everything worked. I'd say that's a bizarre and non-obvious resolution. I don't understand how the error you posted would be related. Interesting... Indeed it is, thankfully it's in the NagVis FAQ! :-) The MySQL error he got from NDO is common to quite a few installations, and doesn't appear to affect NDO's operation. So, a red herring. The explanation on the Nagvis page is as follows: The NDO Backend checks the database if Nagios reports itself as running by getting the field is_currently_running from prefix_programstatus table. Seems there is something wrong with your NDO setup. In some Nagios/NDO installations is a bug whit updating the prefix_programstatus table. The FAQ continues to say that the programstatus table is only updated if check_external_commands is set to 1. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Re: [Nagios-users] Internet Connectivity Monitoring
Hi Alex, Unfortunately most of our upstreams implement CPP (Control Plane Policing) to prevent DDoS attacks, which essentially means that given a certain threshold of ICMP messages the routers begin to drop those packets purposefully to avoid flooding the routers control plane. I do monitor those, but have notifications turned off because of the false positives. The other problem is that one of the scenarios I see once in a while is one of our upstreams may withdraw all their BGP routes and while BGP converges we may see momentary loss to certain sites. We use BGP communities to define which provider we use for different geographic locations, so having geographic monitors is quite important for us (unfortunately, not important enough to host our own servers in those geographic locations, nor to use a performance monitoring service such as Keynote for the same). Even worse, thankfully only happened just once, one of our upstreams encountered an issue where they lost connectivity, but didn't withdraw their BGP routes from our tables. (Ouch!).

I do already do this, with a check BGP plugin, it's good, but doesn't cover every type of problem and I would like to see a plugin that checks the number of routes that have been received from each peer, unfortunately I don't think that's supported via SNMP for our Cisco kit (It does exist for Juniper though) and I'm against doing any check by ssh because of the time it takes for such checks to complete. - where permitted/possible, ping the remote connected interface Yes, we do that, though Control Plane Policing gets in the way for most of our peers. It doesn't provide the End-to-End test I'm trying to find though. - Pay for a colocated/hosted box outside of our network that we can monitor to/from. This is useful not only for monitoring but general troubleshooting of our and other networks from the outside. I would really like this, especially as some remote hosting is pretty cheap, and the bandwidth requirements are pretty low. Perhaps we need to cost what this would amount to and make an internal proposal. - we don't use it but check_cluster(2) could be used to verify that all of several internet connections are up and notify appropriately.

Re: [Nagios-users] NAgios and ISASERVER
Me no hablo espanol... Maybe you could try and ask in english. Then more people will be able to understand you. Hi, they're trying to get events from their Microsoft ISA Server and they're getting the error shown. They've opened the port and set up the rules for both incoming and outgoing packets. They also added the system as an authorised manager of the ISA Server. But they still get the error. This appears to be a NSClient++ issue from the GIF they embedded in the email. I would like to know whether they can netcat or telnet to whatever port NSClient++ is configured to use to confirm that the Firewall on the ISA Server really is correctly configured. I'd also like to know whether NSClient++ really is running on the ISA Server system. As it's a firewall the best way to troubleshoot this would be to run packet captures on both systems (Nagios and ISA) and confirm whether filtering is hampering the monitoring of the server.

Re: [Nagios-users] NDO Troubles
you just delete the database and ndodaemon back to work ? I have to run the db installation script that comes with ndoutils to recreate the db schema. if you use postgresql? same problem ?? Is postgresql support actually working? I found conflicting information as to whether it would work so I never tried it. Have you tried the advice of someone else to give InnoDB loads of memory? I would like to try that, but have no idea as to how to do it! Perhaps someone can advise? (if i dont solve my problem with NDO tomorow my boss will abort nagios in the company.. :-( ) Tell him it's his loss if he takes that route :-). Note that ndoutils is beta software and I don't believe much effort will be taken to resolve this problem until Nagios v3 reaches stable, I have read comments that Ethan is well aware of this problem, and it requires work to not have ndo2db halt Nagios while it does its work. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Re: [Nagios-users] Go to map button
Alex, I am not sure, but, why not rename the extinfo.cgi file in your SOURCE tree and re-run 'make' to recompile the file from the source (extinfo.c). I'm assuming you still have the source and not done a 'make clean', 'make distclean' etc... all of which is probably beyond the scope of the Nagios list.

Re: [Nagios-users] NDO Troubles
List, Today our NDOUtils broker...broke. I'm not entirely sure what happened, but I can tell you what is going on and what I've done... Nagios 2.10, 1.4.10 plugs on Ubuntu 7.10 This has been fine for about 3 months now. Today however, we started seeing some issues with the daemon. In the event log of the nagios web interface it shows successful connections, as does the nagios/mysql logs. Only problem is that in the Nagvis interface it is showing that NDO is reporting Nagios as closed, or no updates in more that 100 seconds. I'm leaning more towards a broken Nagvis at the moment. I am the only person touching the Nagios box and nothing has changed. I did try to add Bacula to this box, but have since removed all relative packages that I installed. Has anyone seen/experienced a similar issue with NDO? It's really frustrating, as we have an IT auditor here today, and this is a big part of our audit this year!!! I get this problem about once a week. In order to resolve it, I stop Nagios, stop NDO, restart mysql, drop the Nagios database, recreate the Nagios database, start Nagios and start NDO. Once done everything works again. If I don't restart mysql I cannot drop the Nagios database within the mysql client and sometimes I need to expressly kill (-9) both Nagios and Mysql. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Re: [Nagios-users] Monitoring
There's no auto discovery in Nagios. This is indeed the case, while at first it may seem as a major drawback to the software, given time, you will realise that it's one of its best features. The effort you place into making Nagios work for you is the reason for its value. If you look at other products with 'autodiscovery' features you will often find that they discover useless hosts and services which have no real impact in your overall service delivery. By making you hand-tune your monitoring Nagios ensures that you only monitor and alarm on what really matters. Just my gem for a Friday.

Re: [Nagios-users] How to disable check-host-alive
You could try sending a passive check result to put it back into an OK state. Mmmm... I've read the Nagios documentation about passive check but yet I do not know very clearly how to use it to put the status back into an OK state. What is your suggestion? Submitting a passive check result can be done via the Web Interface (among other ways) so you just need to login to Nagios, select the host in question and use the Submit passive check result for this host command option from the list of Host Commands. You need to provide some Check Output, the performance data is optional. Nagios will process this check result and the host should return to the state that you select.

[Nagios-users] snmptraphandling.py
Is anyone using Francois Meehan's snmptraphandling.py script?
There's a part of the script where it opens the Nagios.cmd file. I'm not
a python coder, but it appears to me that it writes to the file with 'w'
which would overwrite any pending commands that Nagios has not yet
processed:
#print mondata_res
output = open('/opt/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd', 'w')
results = [ + mytime + ] + PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT;
\
+ host + ; + TRAP- + service_suffix + ; \
+ return_code + ; + mondata_res + \n
output.write(results)
I'm thinking that this script should be opening the file with the 'a'
(Append) mode, so that unprocessed commands in nagios.cmd do not get
overwritten.
I do appear to be missing some traps within Nagios, I can see them as
far as snmptt, but it seems either sec.pl or snmptraphandling.py somehow
doesn't process them and the trap doesn't make it as far as Nagios.

Re: [Nagios-users] Integrating nagvis
If you post in plain text, it's much easier for me not to top post. This is likely something to do with your socket file. Check the socket file in ndo2db configuration file, mine is in: /opt/nagios/var/ndo.sock It is referenced in ndo2db.cfg with this line: socket_name=/opt/nagios/var/ndo.sock if socket exists, it may have been created with insufficient permissions, or the directory mask was bad, remove the file, check permissions and restart ndo.

Re: [Nagios-users] [Nagiosplug-help] jabber notification

Subject: [Nagiosplug-help] jabber notification
Hi All,
I have seen the notify_by_jabber perl script.
Because of the number of notifications that I get through some passive
volatile service checks I was wondering whether anyone has seen one that
was compiled in C rather than perl, as Nagios seems to take quite a
while running the notification script when I get a flood of events - I'm
thinking that a C program might be faster.
Are there any jabber alternatives to the perl script?
If there isn't one then I'll look at using sec.pl to handle these
passive checks (they're SNMP traps, after all) and only produce a single
alert (so far they've been routing topology change notifications from
multiple routers switches in our infrastructure).
Best Regards,
Giles
##
I've tried replacing the notify_via_jabber.pl perl script with centerim.
It essentially allows to run centerim in the background (as the Nagios)
user, and allows me to, as the Nagios user, send jabber alerts via the
command line.
A small issue is that as soon as I modify my commands.cfg to have a
notification I find it does not work, and cannot seem to talk to the
centerim process (centerim is running as the Nagios user).
This is what works from the command line:
echo Host '$HOSTALIAS$' is $HOSTSTATE$ - Info: $HOSTOUTPUT$ - Time:
$LONGDATETIME$ | /usr/local/bin/centerim -s msg -p jab -t
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
This is what doesn't work from the commands.cfg file:
# 'notify-by-jabber' command definition
define command{
command_namenotify-by-jabber
command_line/bin/echo Service: $SERVICEDESC$ - Host:
$HOSTNAME$ - Address: $HOSTADDRESS$ - State: $SERVICESTATE$ - Info:
$SERVICEOUTPUT$ - Date: $LONGDATETIME$ | /usr/local/bin/centerim -s msg
-p jab -t [EMAIL PROTECTED]
}
From the Nagios log, I see it calling notify-by-jabber but I get no such
alert (I was using $CONTACTPAGER$ as the -t parameter, but tried
hardcoding it in the command and it still doesn't work).
Any ideas as to what might cause this?
On an aside, I have implemented sec.pl, but still have Nagios spending
too much time processing notifications, so really need to replace the
slow notify_by_jabber perl script. Centerim looks ideal, but for some
reason isn't working.

Re: [Nagios-users] nsclient, is it still an acceptable method to monitor nt
Steve Ensley wrote: I'm upgrading another departments Nagios 1.3 instance to Nagios 2.9. they are using nsclient to get some info from some nt servers. Most of my Nagios experience has been monitoring Unix servers. The website at http://nsclient.ready2run.nl/ for nsclient doesnt seem to have been touched since 2004. Is it still a viable method to monitor nt servers or is there somthing else I should be looking into to replace it. Try NSClient++ instead. It's at sourceforge somewhere, and is quite a lot fresher. NSClient might work, but it's getting rather ancient. I had this same quandary sometime back. Options were NSClient (seems too old, not being developed) NSClient++ (presumably enhanced in some way) OpServices version of NSClient (still being developed) NC_Net (still being developed) In the end I simply went with NC_Net and it appears to work for us just fine, and I often see the author on this list, which tells me that he's still involved with Nagios in some way. It would be nice if all the different people who independently developed all the different versions 'unforked' their efforts though :-), it would make the decision on which one to use much easier, by having a lack of choice!! - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
