Ben Short wrote: Hi, I'm trying to use the display_name param in my host definitions. But it's not being used as the host name in the Nagios website. $ grep display_name cgi/* I know that the document website [1] says 'Note: The current CGIs do not use this option, although future versions of the web interface will.' but I have found a bug [2] that has been marked as fixed. Did this bug make it into Nagios Core? this feature was reported to nagios as display_name for statusmap.cgi, somewhere on nagios-devel lists. i took the liberty to implement full display_name support in icinga classic ui at that time but never reported nor backported a patch to nagios. given the recent statement by nagios developers on not enhancing the nagios classic ui anymore, i don't see the need to invest some spare time to backport feature patches from icinga to nagios anymore. i for myself only use icinga with classic ui, so call me happy. for the time being, i'd suggest migrating to OMD where you'll get the best of all worlds (nagios, icinga, shinken as well as guis supporting display_name). jm2c, michael I'm running Nagios® Core™ Version 3.3.1.

Re: [Nagios-users] How to reschedule multiple/all services at once
.
As for adding that capability to the default ui; That's not
going to happen
unless someone provides a patch for it. None of the maintainers
have any
interest in adding features to the cgi, so they're there simply as
a fallback
and will most likely be removed some time in the future in favour
of a ui
written in some more easily hackable language.

I have seen a pretty good idea on Icinga, a Nagios fork, for this

a select-all checkbox to select all checkboxes.
hehe. you just made ricardo and rune proud :-))
It would be useful to have that on the Nagios Core, but AFAIK
there isn't any.
for the problem itsself - try OMD. nagios, icinga, shinken as core
available whilst the gui decision is up to you.

We might turn address into an array variable later. I'm not sure it's worth it though. It's being demanded as multiple addresses for one host which comes to mind when seeing a host as - management ip, and a bunch of service ip addresses (for naming purposes custom vars will be better) - vmware / xen cluster with more than one unique address - dualstacked ip addresses as well as other examples. Until someone finds a best practice that is flexible enough to allow all setups while making the most common one really, really simple we probably won't try to do anything that will lock people in to a particular kind of reasoning. it's pretty hard to determine what might be best. especially when more addresses would mean more macros to be processed, and performance gain would suffer more than such enhancements will bring to those actually having demanded that. making things opt-in is not always an option either. That ofcourse requires someone to actually figure out first what the most common case is, and then to figure out a best practice for how to monitor it that enough people agree on to make it at least a majority vote that we dictators implement. ideas.nagios.org might be a good place to vote. http://ideas.nagios.org/a/dtd/Better-support-for-multihomed-hosts---more-than-one-address-entry/8006-3955 and it doesn't need to be you dictators, maybe others got time, ideas, patches. like the guy asking for the additional icon defintion for action|notes_url patch - that's rather huge and might address such attribute questions by good example. even better is the address6 patch adding new macros too. but maybe there are too many changes in recent svn commits and 3.2.3 = 3.3.1 which makes people fear that their patch work could not be used. (maybe git solves it ;) Until such a time, custom variables, plugin hackery and check command voodoo seems to do the trick for most people. Yep that's true. Adding the address6 patch was solely for the reason of integrating our management databases better into the network and server monitoring.

[Nagios-users] [PATCH] reduce notification load; fix $NOTIFICATIONRECIPIENTS$ macro #98
hi, recently we've been debugging on team icinga in the middle of notifications and macros, and while investigating on a users problem, we've digged a bit deeper into the notification viability checks, resulting in deeper analysis of an Opsview patch to reduce the notification load significantly by moving the viability checks from the actual notification into the creation of the contacts notified, passing only a list of 'qualified' contacts to the actual notification logic. the only thing to remark over here is that the checks against the valid notification_period now happen sooner, and not actually when the notification is sent to each contact. while implementing that patch into current code (needs some macro passing with current code), we did remember nagios bug #98 where the $NOTIFICATIONRECEIPIENTS$ macro is demanded to be only populated with the actual contacts to be notified, but not all of those assigned to the host/service. while this is considered to be a real bug, further investigation showed that thanks to the viability checks before calling add_notification(), contacts won't be added to that macro as the macro logic happens within that function too. so by applying the attached git patch, you will a. reduce notification load and b. fix the $NOTIFICATIONRECEIPIENTS$ macro holding all contacts, but not the viable contacts. since the code remains actually the same on icinga and nagios in this stage, the tests can be found at the icinga dev tracker as usual. https://dev.icinga.org/issues/1744 https://dev.icinga.org/issues/2023 kudos to Opsview Team for their initial patch as well as Icinga Development Team for the further analysis on the macro bug. feel free to apply, matches against latest HEAD. kind regards, Michael -- DI (FH) Michael Friedrich Vienna University Computer Center Universitaetsstrasse 7 A-1010 Vienna, Austria email: michael.friedr...@univie.ac.at phone: +43 1 4277 14359 mobile:+43 664 60277 14359 fax: +43 1 4277 14338 web: http://www.univie.ac.at/zid http://www.aco.net Lead Icinga Core IDOUtils Developer http://www.icinga.org From 34d71eb4a947051cc0a1251745b8829245cd2e7d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Friedrich michael.friedr...@univie.ac.at Date: Tue, 1 Nov 2011 13:35:20 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] reduce notification load; fix $NOTIFICATIONRECIPIENTS$ macro #98 1) currently, the list of contacts to be notified is created and finally on the notification actually happening, the viability checks happen. this will cause heavy load on systems with many contacts configured, looping even for the contacts who won't pass the notification viability tests. in order to solve that, a patch by Opsview Team was taken into account, moving the viability checks directly into the notification list creation before adding a contact to the list. note: the check against the timeperiod will happen on list creation, not an actual notification being sent. but that's a minor flaw. 2) while moving the viability checks on list creation, this will cause that not *all* contacts of the host/service will be added to the list, but just those actually receiving the notification. the macro $NOTIFICATIONSRECEIPIENTS$ gets populated in add_notification() and will therefore hold only those contacts being viable for a notification. note: this fixes #98 on the bug tracker. for further analysis and tests, please refer over here https://dev.icinga.org/issues/1744 https://dev.icinga.org/issues/2023 kudos to Opsview Team for their initial patch, this has been reworked into current macro threadsafety logic with some proper inline comments. --- Changelog| 11 + base/notifications.c | 106 +- include/nagios.h |4 +- 3 files changed, 92 insertions(+), 29 deletions(-) diff --git a/Changelog b/Changelog index 0a5e9e6..8742ca8 100644 --- a/Changelog +++ b/Changelog @@ -2,6 +2,17 @@ Nagios 3.x Change Log # +3.x.x - ??/??/ + +ENHANCEMENTS +* reduce notification load by moving notification viability check into notification list creation (Opsview Team) + +FIXES +* fix $NOTIFICATIONRECIPIENTS$ macro contains all contacts assigned to host|service, not only notified contacts (Icinga Development Team) #98 + +WARNINGS + + 3.3.1 - 07/25/2011 -- ENHANCEMENTS diff --git a/base/notifications.c b/base/notifications.c index 6f5a5ab..1dbd849 100644 --- a/base/notifications.c +++ b/base/notifications.c @@ -108,9 +108,26 @@ int service_notification(service *svc, int type, char *not_author, char *not_dat log_debug_info(DEBUGL_NOTIFICATIONS, 2, Creating list of contacts to be notified.\n); - /* create the contact notification list for this service */ + /* allocate memory for macros */ memset(mac, 0, sizeof(mac)); - create_notification_list_from_service(mac, svc, options, escalated); + + /* create the contact notification list

How many have you fixed in Icinga that were shipped in stable releases? The ones reported for Nagios have all been fairly safe in that they're small or one-time leaks, exist in code not normally exercised (recently added features without ui support), changes in behaviour that might as well have been misdocumented in the first place or only triggered by certain combinations of eventbroker modules. i've added my input on the empty perfdata behaviorial change on the nagios-devel lists and i do think that this is a bug because it actually breaks compatibility. even if not intended, if the behaviour stayed thre for a long time, i don't see the reason to fix that this way. but solely, that's just my opinion even if i break the abi myself from time to time. just a hint to reduce support questions. And yes, 3.3.1 is the latest stable. I'm not aware of any bugs in it, apart from the potential one that Dorian sent me a patch for a few weeks ago that I still haven't had time to review and test properly, so it's a bug in potentia, but not actually verified. i've looked over them and i am still waiting for further input on what exactly leaks. i'm with you, free'ing the macros themselves rather than cleaning up the whole mess. -- DI (FH) Michael Friedrich Vienna University Computer Center Universitaetsstrasse 7 A-1010 Vienna, Austria email: michael.friedr...@univie.ac.at phone: +43 1 4277 14359 mobile: +43 664 60277 14359 fax:+43 1 4277 14338 web:http://www.univie.ac.at/zid http://www.aco.net Icinga Core IDOUtils Developer http://www.icinga.org -- All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.

problem appears to be the in main.php, which never did display
the "update available" banner when I was running version 3.2.3
(and 3.3.1 had been out for a week). Any ideas?
that'll be a bug report for nagios developers then. the only
support from my side on that functionality - you can have a
patchset which completely removes the home calling functionality
from both, core and gui and re-adds the default look on the

Re: [Nagios-users] perfdata-file not working the same since upgrade from 3.0.2 to 3.3.1
On 06.09.2011 18:36, Joe Hoot wrote: Hi all, I recently upgraded from Nagios Core 3.0.2 to 3.3.1. Once upgraded, I noticed that my nagiosgraph wasn't graphing data from some custom checks that I wrote. After further investigation, it turns out that nagiosgraph isn't seeing of the output from my check commands. This information used to go to my service_perfdata_file. I have the following template setup: service_perfdata_file_template=$LASTSERVICECHECK$||$HOSTNAME$||$SERVICEDESC$||$SERVICEOUTPUT$||$SERVICEPERFDATA$ And that has worked just fine for nagiosgraph to pull that information and parse it in order to fill rrd data. But now that I've upgraded to 3.3.1, I don't appear to be seeing any of my custom commands (ones that don't have perfdata) in that file. And upon investigating more, if I include perfdata in my custom commands, it sends to that perfdata_file just fine. but if the performance data isn't there, it doesn't show up in that file. nagios 3.3.1 does not process empty perfdata macros anymore which causes those results not to be put onto the perfdata channel. so all your plugins not returning perfdata won't even be put over there where nagiosgraph and other addons might calculate their perfdata from the output themselves. Is this a bug? i consider it a bug as it breaks compatibility. previous discussions on nagios-* mailinglists can be found in the archive. dunno when this will get fixed. http://www.mail-archive.com/nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg36537.html http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.network.nagios.devel/8128 i'd suggest downgrading onto 3.2.3 and wait for a properly tested 3.3.x release. kind regards, Michael -- DI (FH) Michael Friedrich Vienna University Computer Center Universitaetsstrasse 7 A-1010 Vienna, Austria email: michael.friedr...@univie.ac.at phone: +43 1 4277 14359 mobile:+43 664 60277 14359 fax: +43 1 4277 14338 web: http://www.univie.ac.at/zid http://www.aco.net Icinga Core IDOUtils Developer http://www.icinga.org -- Special Offer -- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE!

Hello First time user of Nagios.
Im having the same problem as described below how do I utilise this patch ?
download the patched file from here and replace it
http://www.nagios-portal.org/wbb/index.php?page=ThreadpostID=154526#post154526
that's easier than hacking the makefile yourself.

We're seeing an error during make install of 3.3.1.
I have checked the install upgrade docs for 3.3.1, all prerequisites
are already installed. 3.2.3 still installs with no errors.
For others with this issue, please see patch below which comes courtesy
of Craig Genner. It provides a work-around for the bug in the html

Hi Andy,
Happy for you to post it as a work around. Glad I could help you get
it working.

We want to monitor the disk usage, processes, mysql server, and rsyslogd daemon on the virtual machine, so the NRPE client was installed and configured to start on system boot. After that was done, the appropriate changes were made to the various config files on the Nagios server. The virtual machine and Nagios server were rebooted, in that order, after the changes were made. When going through the web interface on the Nagios server, the virtual host does not appear listed in any of the pages.

The nrpe daemon is run via the /etc/rc.local file using the following command syntax: /usr/local/nrpe/bin/nrpe -n -c /usr/local/nrpe/etc/nrpe.cfg -d I checked the Nagios server, and confirmed the virtual host was listed in the /etc/hosts as well as the nagios configuration files. The nslookup command, run on server and client, confirmed the presence of the virtual host in the DNS database.

Re: [Nagios-users] IPv6 support
Andreas Ericsson wrote: Not really. You can still achieve the exact same functionality with custom variables. What Michael has done is to make one such custom variable official, which breaks the ABI. He still has to use special plugins to check both ip4 and ip6 addresses at the same time, which is why I think it's quite stupid. the dual check affinity only takes place in the host checking currently (where it does make sense to combine it with check_multi or any other conditional check wrapper). for other purposes you can still define your own checks and services, especially tagged as PING4 and PING6 e.g. - but no need to play around with get the 4 or 6 address from somewhere for the commandline, but just take the §HOSTADRESS(6)$ macros and be happy as it was demanded. don't get me wrong, i know that abi changes and such make developer's going mad. but from a users perspective this was one of the things demanded the most. at least within the range of those sysadmins already running ipv4 and ipv6 in their productive environments. even more, those virtual appliances and clustered setups would need an even more in deep rewrite, but that's another story (service sets might be a good attempt for that). You can, but with custom variables. How many official addresses should Nagios support? 3? 5? Soon we'll run into someone who wants more than that, and then we're left with breaking the ABI again. And again. And again. Breaking the ABI causes major headaches for module developers and users. Custom variables don't break the ABI and causes minor headaches for people with complex environments, who hopefully get paid quite a lot to handle such complexities in an elegant way. Nagios makes that possible, while making the normal case (ip4 *or* ip6) possible. using custom variables within the default nagios gui remains impossible to be shown and used without hacking c code. making it available would either cost to allow custom variables to be shown (what regex might be good to show only those? is it really custom then? etc) rather than just supporting the address6 host attribute - which remains implemented by a community members, tested by various and demanded by lots of. -- DI (FH) Michael Friedrich Vienna University Computer Center Universitaetsstrasse 7 A-1010 Vienna, Austria email: michael.friedr...@univie.ac.at phone: +43 1 4277 14359 mobile: +43 664 60277 14359 fax:+43 1 4277 14338 web:http://www.univie.ac.at/zid http://www.aco.net Icinga Core IDOUtils Developer http://www.icinga.org -- EditLive Enterprise is the world's most technically advanced content authoring tool.

Original Message Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] IPv6 support From: Andreas Ericsson a...@op5.se To: Nagios Users List nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Date: 2011-06-10 14:09 So give _address6 official status *in the ui*. Or make a config item that lets users specify which custom variables to show in the UI. Or show all of them by default. That's a change that actually makes sense, would have been far less intrusive and would have made very nearly everyone happy (especially the configure which you want to see, with a general switch to show all and then include/exclude parameters to filter passwords and whatnot out of the UI). Wasn't that the real reason behind the patches in the first place? That's at least the only real unique benefit from this over using custom vars. The problem here is actually laziness and possibly poor maintenance. When presented with the patch, you need to ask the submitter; What purpose does this patch serve and why is it so generally important that we have to break the ABI? Given some prodding, you would have found out that the user really just wants to see a special custom variable in the web-interface. Achieving that is basically peanuts, given half a day and a junior coder fresh out of kindergarten, so it's quite likely the submitter could have been persuaded to rewrite the patch like that so it would have been easy to maintain it. It would also have made it acceptable in the Nagios core and would have made life easier for those broker module authors that actually care about supporting Icinga and for the users that use modules with it. That turned a bit harsh there. Sorry about that. conclusion - you won't accept such patches, i can live with the extra work they will cause. even with addons staying compatible with icinga but not supprting the address6 field. everything else still remains compatible and tested. but that's not the point within nagios related stuff. there are other nagios patches pending, still breaking the abi (see some of opsviews patches and those from nagios-devel) which will make a change happen somewhere in the future. so maybe after a while users demand (even those from your customers), and it will hit nagios too. until then, let's just ask people out there what they really want and how *they* would achieve that. either live with it, patch it or even pay for it. -- DI (FH) Michael Friedrich Vienna University Computer Center Universitaetsstrasse 7 A-1010 Vienna, Austria email: michael.friedr...@univie.ac.at phone: +43 1 4277 14359 mobile: +43 664 60277 14359 fax:+43 1 4277 14338 web:http://www.univie.ac.at/zid http://www.aco.net Icinga Core IDOUtils Developer http://www.icinga.org -- EditLive Enterprise is the world's most technically advanced content authoring tool.

That's what major releases are for. I guess I'm just a bit whiny because I'd hoped Icinga would stay compatible with Nagios in all possible ways as was promised from the beginning. i wasn't there in the very beginning, but from my perspective it's still backward compatible while reaching out for new things. try compiling livestatus against the nagios header files it uses, but against icinga. it will work in productive environments (otherwise community feedback would have been provided - which we already had, remember those contactgroup functions you've removed upstream, and i did too). so maybe you'd just give it a git pull, configure, make all, make fullinstall and use merlin against it. i'm pretty sure it will work out.

Re: [Nagios-users] IPv6 support
Original Message Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] IPv6 support From: Andreas Ericsson a...@op5.se To: Nagios Users List nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Date: 2011-06-09 18:19 Why? If the host is reachable via ip6, it's reachable via ip6 and that's what you configure. If it's not, you configure ip4 instead. if you happen to have dualstacked setups in various places, not specifically host monitoring, but dependant on the host itsself to support the dual stacked way. In my environment, I need a lot of diversification between v4 and v6 so it's one of those possible things to make the core being aware of the both attributes as well as both macros as well as the gui to show and reflect that. either single checks on each route, or combined and conditional. Besides; the kernel automagically translates ip4 addresses to ip6 ones on ip6 only interfaces, and does the same for ip6 addresses on ip4-only ones. It's mentioned in the spec that the protected segments for internal use will remain protected in ip6 as well. If they weren't, migrating from one to the other would be complete hell and damn near impossible without superhuman effort. it's nice that the kernel does that on the monitoring box (or respective where the worker executing the check resides), but as said, when it comes to dual stacking, you'll need both addresses. or you'll let your nameservers do the trick (or a local resolver), then you wouldn't need any forward/reverse translations fixed static by some host attributes. but that adds another dependency not always possible/needed/wanted. I remain unimpressed. A far cleverer solution would be to have a single check run against all non-protected addresses and let that plugin look up the ip6 address for the host somewhere else (or through a custom variable fetched via livestatus or something, which doesn't break the ABI), and then simply report back if any of them stop working. It's not the point what's clever and what might be non-clever. it's all about timing constraints and accepting work already done, not having the issues to resolve the problem with the well-known workaround trick. sure nagios/icinga remains playing lego with the various addons and plugins, but as a matter of fact i prefer having it all upstream and available throughout the core, and not injected with or by anything else. livestatus isn't an option either way, but that's offtopic. If this patch had been accompanied by something to make conditional macros and command_line arguments work, I'd have cheered all the way though. I don't really get it what you mean - can you explain that a bit more? kind regards, Michael -- DI (FH) Michael Friedrich Vienna University Computer Center Universitaetsstrasse 7 A-1010 Vienna, Austria email: michael.friedr...@univie.ac.at phone: +43 1 4277 14359 mobile: +43 664 60277 14359 fax:+43 1 4277 14338 web:http://www.univie.ac.at/zid http://www.aco.net Icinga Core IDOUtils Developer http://www.icinga.org -- EditLive Enterprise is the world's most technically advanced content authoring tool.

Re: [Nagios-users] pnp4nagios - Hostname not set

Hi guys,
I've followed the install instruction from here
(http://docs.pnp4nagios.org/pnp-0.4/install) to install pnp4nagios v4
on my nagios 3.x running on a fedora 14 box but I'm stuck when
verifying the install.
any specific reason not to use 0.6.x ?
When I do http://servername/Nagios/pnp my first error is 'Hostname is
not set' followed by 'perfdata folder is empty' and 'no rrd files'
I've looked and sure enough there are no rrd files in the folder, plus
there is no entry in the log file.
To me this suggests that Nagios isn't firing the command
'process-service-perfdata' after completing a check.
My commands.cfg file looks correct;
# Added by Tristan for PNP 4 Nagios
define command {
command_nameprocess-service-perfdata
command_line/usr/local/nagios/libexec/process_perfdata.pl
}
define command {
command_nameprocess-host-perfdata
command_line/usr/local/nagios/libexec/process_perfdata.pl
-d HOSTPERFDATA
}
And so is my Nagios.cfg file;
process_performance_data=1
host_perfdata_command=process-host-perfdata
service_perfdata_command=process-service-perfdata
these tow are the only things I've changed from the default install.
Any ideas what I've missed??
Any tips on how I can drill down further to see what's not happing and
why?
Thanks in advance J

See t-tap/test_checks.c which has tests in the handle_async_check_results routine. Ok, thanks for the hint. In case there are any users in the Nagios world happen to have the same problem, I'd love to see some reports after having that patch applied against 3.2.3 or similarities. please consider them for future releases as it will ease the porting-patches-from-icinga-core procedure. To be honest, that's not my problem. You can make an argument that it is better for Nagios users, but an argument to make your life easier for future patches is not going to sway me. If you choose to fork, then you're accepting a certain cost of maintenance. Of course not your problem, not even Nagios devs ones, just Nagios users maybe. I was only taking the advantage to give something back from Icinga. Take it or leave it. Just saying that if you're interested in further contributions, I'd expect some feedback (just like you did, so thanks for the reaction). If you're insisting on further automated test cases, it's fine, but will cause those patches to last longer on that list until resolving more important issues. Like I mentioned recently, there are some bugs affecting both, Icinga and Nagios I am currently working on. Talking of forks - I really appreciate the Centreon engine fork.

Re: [Nagios-users] [Nagios-devel] nagios patches 3 old, 1 new (fix flexible downtime on service hard state change doesn't get triggered/activated)
Hi, Andreas Ericsson wrote: Good idea. Involving the community to help test things is something I've been wanting and trying to do for a long time. the mailinglists are not optimal. try a dev blog, ask on fb/twitter, and maybe cleanup the bug tracker a bit. using new social media in a good way can make life easier. but i think i already mentioned that a while ago to tony on irc. I'm fairly sure I applied that one, but perhaps I was lacking the proper amount of alcohol in my bloodstream and forgot to do the git - cvs export step. The patch is good and will be applied though, since it would otherwise force us to bump the major version of Nagios for the next release. Thanks :) thought so, and the recent change to svn would have made the diff changed, idea - grab some beers (i'm sure you will on the nagios conference in italy) and do it together with ton and ethan, showing some git ;-)) Well, some patches are obviously correct and can be applied without adding tests for them. Where current behaviour changes, or new features are added in already complex areas is a different matter though, but getting the code queued somewhere might make it easier to accept from users testing them. Point is, in that special change on previous release, no test was provided either. So by just reverting the diff, it could have resolved the issue either way. But I also understand Ton's demanding though I don't have time writing those tests myself. For me, it's working, and the other part of the cake can be done by someone else amongst fellow nagios users/contributors. The sad part is that centreon forked three days after Nagios Enterprises cancelled the partnership contract with Merethis (the company behind centreon). To me, that smells a bit political. Even if it is, I like their recent patches and overall contributed work to Nagios. If there are politics those guys should do that on closed doors, and not disturb the way development flows. i did not like that on the netways stuff, on the shinken trademark thingies, and if that now pops up - well, as said, putting it into the right channels, but not nagios-devel imho. Thanks for the link though. I've been looking for it but was unable to find the download before you posted it. It should be interesting to see if they can solve the I/O load problems like someone here at the Bolzano conference mentioned they're working on. That's one of my goals too, but so far I haven't had time to sit down and think it through properly. If they have, we should be able to profit from their work quite easily. Most possible. I'm keen on sharing some of my not-currently-available ressources thinking with them about future changes and/or improvements. Yes. And no. Shinken is incompatible with all of Nagios' current broker modules. Icinga have broken the ABI compatibility, but not to the same extent. Shinken has some very neat ideas (and some not so neat ones too). Like all good engineers, I'll happily borrow the good ones and let the bad ones go hang. There comes the day in history where an ABI must be broken in order to allow the implementation of things you need. Although remaining compatible, this is not a good solution, I totally agree on that. Either way, Shinken did it right, introducing new things, independent of the down below code. Let's see what future might bring on that. Communication seems to rather broken in various ways, so let the code and releases talk instead, sharing ideas and man power.

$HOSTALIAS$ changed without error when changing the alias
definition, since version 3.2.2 change is impossible.
Thanks for a fix in an upcoming version.
We have just diagnosed this problem as well. It seems to be due to this
fix released with 3.2.2:
* Fix for retaining host display name and alias, as well as service
display name (Folkert van Heusden)
Sadly, the additional retained attributes have no corresponding mask
bits to use in the retained_host_attribute_mask setting, and there is no
justification provided for incorporating this change, just that one
line. No UI I've seen lets you change these values (though one could
exist I'm sure). The result is, whatever value those fields had are kept
forever in the retention file regardless of what you change them to in
the actual configuration. The only solution I can see is to stop
Nagios, edit the retention file and start Nagios. There may be a string
you can send to the command pipe to change those (one would hope that is
the case), but I agree with you -- this fix needs to be pulled from
the code.
I recently removed that feature from icinga core, and then also built
an on demand patch against current 3.2.3 git tree for an omd user. since
it's unclear to me if the nagios devs would keep that as feature or not,
feel free to use the attached git patch yourself.
kind regards,

Good Day,
I have installed nagios on my debian server and, except for the status

I searched on the forums and saw a similar problem indicating to check
the config logs and I found I didn't have
everything. So I downlaoded the Boutelles GD tarball and installed as
per http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/nagiosinstall.htm
but I still ahve no luck - statusmap.cgi refuses to be compiled.
I hope someone here can help.
What I have:
debian squeeze for amd64 - patched to current
gd-2.0.33.
the dev(el) packages are also needed in order to let configure finding
the header includes.
but i'd rather suggest installing nagios from packages too.
nagios-3.2.3.
nagios-plugins-1.4.15
I've run ./configure with and without --enable-statusmap - doesn't seem
to make a difference.
the config.log however indicates (often!) that confdefs.h fails.
Significantly, it fails on:

I wander whether is possible to make Nagios writing notification (host up/host down, for example) into PostgreSQL database? if you write your own NEB broker module, and put that onto libpq or similar, the core will be able to, sure. Or you'll have a look at Icinga IDOUtils which support Postgresql quite a while now. I found NDOUtils, but this addon does not suit me because i don't use MySQL. Well there aren't that much alternatives to that. Merlin supports MySQL and Oracle (in development on git). I'm not sure if the Centreon Broker is already released which *should* support more RDBMS. But for notifications only, why not using event handlers? then you could call scripts putting data into your rdbms the preferred way. http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/eventhandlers.html kind regards, Michael Also found that this kind of storage is suported under Nagios 1.x, but what about 3.x?

Only a developer might get the idea what did change, but if I were just an user with daily business I would spend a lot of time checking on possible errors. Better having a new release telling this is fixed. Since the fix awaits input from testers we can't very well release it immediately. You've tested it, so that makes one person. If a few more report that it's now working as intended without any downsides we'll probably go ahead and cut a release in the next few days, but releasing untested code that might break something else just to fix a bug isn't really good practice. Well good to hear that, not rushing into releases. Maybe instrumented by asking on different channels for testing help (like Twitter and Facebook getting very popular right now).

Have a look into cgi/cmd.c

but afaik disabling only the ack notification won't be possible in that

Before this crash , all works like a charm. Do you think I really need
to upgrade ?
I would just recommend it on performance purpose but if it worked for
you, stay at 1.4b7 - 1.4b8 is shipping with several bugs which are not
all resolved in 1.4b9 (from what I can tell looking at the code and
comparing to Icinga IDOUtils).
Regarding your problem I would run a sanity check on the database,
checking if there's anything broken and ndo2db just fails on inserting
data (long lasting connections to the rdbms slow down the overall
sequential inserts).
You might also use a little trick to remove the 5k items from buffer -
you can set that in your ndomod.cfg - set it to 1, restart the core,
change back and restart again. Never tried that, but at least those
buffered items should be dropped out of the way.
But I think the electrical incident harmed sth else, like the rdbms.
Kind regards,
Michael

Re: [Nagios-users] [Nagios-devel] Nagios development moving forward
Hi, just some feedback from my side on your patches. Original Message Subject: [Nagios-devel] Nagios development moving forward From: Andreas Ericsson a...@op5.se To: nagios-devel nagios-de...@lists.sourceforge.net, Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Date: 2010-04-29 20:46 So for those of you who wish to try out a revamped Nagios with a bunch of bugfixes and code improvements, clone your repo from me or Ton today and build Nagios from source. I've taken all your commits and applied them manually onto the current Icinga Core (we changed things, Nagios did not, and next to that, I'd like to understand what you and Toon hacked there ;-) Your hackings are very very nice, and it's a real good start in fixing things and getting rid of old grown code and workarounds. This commit is just WOW :-) http://git.op5.org/git/?p=nagios.git;a=commit;h=555b4b72aae54e65ba923093ef469c3aa5a0edb9 Regarding taking over commits, kudos have been kept both within commit subjects and changelog for our next release including your patches next to ours. From the testing arena, everything runs fine. Although the sync retention feature is only one half of the good, the other would be opsview or some nifty hacking on distributed monitoring :) Everything else resolves as it should be. By chance, get these changes into a revamped tar.gz and hand that to packagers, if it does not get into current CVS head. Or at least the patch set :) Kind regards, Michael To clone a repository with git, use git cloneurl This will get you all latest sources. For further info about git, see http://www.git-scm.org My repo: clone url: git://git.op5.org/nagios.git gitweb url's: http://git.op5.org/git/?p=nagios.git http://git.op5.org/git/?p=nagios.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/dev branches: masterSame as the still-official Nagios CVS repo dev My changes on top of CVS import ae-tonThe merged state between me and Ton Ton's repo: clone url: git://github.com/tonvoon/opsview-nagios.git gitweb url: http://github.com/tonvoon/opsview-nagios.git branches: masterTon's and my changes on top of CVS import Those of you who have reported bugs to tracker.nagios.org should log into the tracker again and see if your bug has been closed or resolved, and if so try out my dev branch, which should contain the proper fix. Those of you who are git-savvy since before can try git log -p --grep=fix.*#$bug_id_without_leading_zeroes dev in a repo cloned from mine and it'll show you the commits that are responsible for fixing your problem. -- DI (FH) Michael Friedrich michael.friedr...@univie.ac.at Tel: +43 1 4277 14359 Vienna University Computer Center Universitaetsstrasse 7 A-1010 Vienna, Austria -- ___ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
Re: [Nagios-users] [Nagios-devel] Nagios development moving forward
Hi, Original Message Subject: Re: [Nagios-devel] Nagios development moving forward From: Andreas Ericsson a...@op5.se To: Nagios Developers List nagios-de...@lists.sourceforge.net Date: 2010-04-30 10:04 The problem is that Ethan is too swamped to learn a new SCM at the moment. Since that most likely means he's also too swamped to do any development work on the Nagios core and CVS is quite unusable by me and Ton, we decided to move forward with development anyway. Well I understand what he is doing right know, and I also understand that Ton and you would like to get things going with GIT. I basically did the same for some NDOUtils patches recently, I don't like to work on CVS when I get my hands on GIT :) We're using one git repository each, and expect to be able to send pull requests to Ethan (or whoever takes the part of integrator) when Ethan takes the time to learn enough of git to join in. Hmmm I was coming from CVS/SVN about a year ago, and it was hard at the first time, but after a while, it was rather easy. I wrote several notes, and summarized this into our wiki lately. Maybe it will help Ethan since its focus is on the core within GIT. https://dev.icinga.org/wiki/icinga-development It's meant to be an announcement that there are repositories where core developers are stashing bugfixes and enhancements. What people choose to do with that information is quite up to themselves. Ok, will start testing and applying then. Personally, I'd love it if people used my 'dev' branch for testing and, if it solves a real problem they're having, for production use too. All the changes I've done so far are bugfixes and performance and maintainability improvements that shouldn't change any previously working behaviour. Maybe several patches and fixes will get into rpm/deb packages then if they are resolving major issues and no new official release happens in time. Thanks for pointing this out, this will ease applying and testing. Yes and no. Hendrik Baecker wrote an email to me, Ton and Ethan a few weeks ago stating he no longer has the time to maintain NDOutils. That means that NDOUtils currently stands without a maintainer. Ah ok. Thanks for the official info, thought about that a while ago. Well, difficult situation then. Maybe time for Merlin to become an official Core addon? :) I won't be picking up that flag, since I'm also the Merlin maintainer and wouldn't want to sit in a position where I'm maintaining two similar modules. Especially since op5 won't be paying me to maintain a more or less competing product. Maybe Ton or Ethan will take care of it, or we'll announce that we're looking for a new maintainer sometime soon. If anyone's interested in wearing the NDOUtils hat, let us know. A while ago, I would have said yes (I also told Hendrik that he should send Ethan my application, but I got on hold never having sent any patches or sth like that). Right know my company will step over to Icinga and I will be maintaining this direction into the future, mainly regarding Postgres/Oracle support in combination with the new API/Web. So basically there's no time left for NDOUtils - it's basically competing with IDOUtils as a matter of fact, but only IDOUtils has Postgres/Oracle support and extended housekeeping etc. Overall NDOUtils needs to be kind of rewritten/improved as we did in Icinga - by someone who'll take the hat. Furthermore there are signifcant issues on the code of NDOUtils which need to be fixed asap (imho) - just for the community who uses it right now. Some of them are mentioned on the lists, some on the tracker and some are also within the patch collection of Opsera (talked to Ton on IRC about taking some of them into IDOUtils). Regarding NagVis, mk-livestatus (nice approach getting to know on the couches next to OSMC 2009) get's more and more important and people are moving over. At least the german speaking community is really into that, maybe others will catch up too. http://mathias-kettner.de/checkmk_livestatus.html So the basic need of NDOUtils is not there anymore regarding NagVis - also if using Merlin/Ninja. For other addons e.g. reporting tools development must not stop though. There are 2 other guys on the NDOUtils team - how about them to get things going? Or maybe a decision by Ethan, because currently the Nagios XI Enterprise version also ships with a buggy, not patched version of NDOUtils. And I suspect, for business needs, that's not really a good choice offering that. Anyways, I am happy to see that something's going on on the Nagios dev side of life :-) Kind regards, Michael -- DI (FH) Michael Friedrich michael.friedr...@univie.ac.at Tel: +43 1 4277 14359 Vienna University Computer Center Universitaetsstrasse 7 A-1010 Vienna, Austria -- ___ Nagios-users mailing
Re: [Nagios-users] event_broker_options and multiple broker modules
Original Message Subject: [Nagios-users] event_broker_options and multiple broker modules From: Wolfgang Powisch powo+lists.nagios-us...@powo.priv.at To: Nagios List nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Date: 2010-04-28 23:14 Hi, I'm currently using NDOutils+MySQL to access both, live- and hitorical data from Nagios-systems in a custom network management system. Which Version of NDOUtils? If 1.4b7 I would not recommend it for historical data, or in case, if you don't need correct data in servicechecks, systemcommands and timedevents, you can keep it ;-) Recently I noticed mk-livestatus and since the NDO-DB solution has significant performance/scalability issues I'm planning to use mk-livestatus for live-data-retrieval but keeping NDO for historical data. AFAIK mk-livestatus can also ask the core for historical data, but I don't think parsing logs from the core would scale then. Also the overall memory consumption of the core loading the mk-livestatus module will will be more when having everything cached. Basically it doesn't seem to be a problem to use both broker-modules at the same time but I'd like to specify different event_broker_options per broker_module. is that possible ? On NDOUtils you can set the data processing options in ndomod.cfg - this is just for the module itsself. Which event broker options are needed for mk-livestatus - well that's the thing to ask the devs. Also there's no option to set that directly onto the module as for it only gets the live socket as param (and debug mode). I would recommend that you ask on nagios-portal.org where the devs are around.

Hi, Original Message Subject: [Nagios-devel] Nagios development moving forward From: Andreas Ericsson a...@op5.se To: nagios-devel nagios-de...@lists.sourceforge.net, Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Date: 2010-04-29 20:46 Hey all. Sorry for cross-posting, but I suppose this announce interests quite a lot of the users too, and not just developers. I'm just writing to inform you all that Nagios (core and cgi's) development is once again moving forward. We've previously been stalled by technical issues on how we should work with the code now that we're a distributed team. As most of you know, talk has been going on for quite some time to move the official Nagios repository to git. While this hasn't happened yet, everything that has so far been coded for Nagios has been done that way, in my own and Ton's public repositories which are cross-pollinated with changes from both of us. So for those of you who wish to try out a revamped Nagios with a bunch of bugfixes and code improvements, clone your repo from me or Ton today and build Nagios from source. Thanks for the update. Although it would be nice to get the official repositories onto GIT - where exactly is the problem? And regarding the revamped Nagios - is this meant to be an invitation for testing, or for using those versions? When will all those fixes be merged back in to the CVS HEAD branches: masterSame as the still-official Nagios CVS repo dev My changes on top of CVS import ae-tonThe merged state between me and Ton Sounds good, will give it a try. A bunch of nice improvements, and bugfixes next to those where I've already applied the patches and tested them over here :) gitweb url: http://github.com/tonvoon/opsview-nagios.git Minor note - remove the .git then it works http://github.com/tonvoon/opsview-nagios Those of you who have reported bugs to tracker.nagios.org should log into the tracker again and see if your bug has been closed or resolved, and if so try out my dev branch, which should contain the proper fix. Any news on NDOUtils and other Core addons? Next to the Core it would be nice to know what's going on with them.
