[Nagios-users] High Service Check Latency
Hello! Yes, it's a common problem, but cannot figure out how to debug it. I've a distributed setup with a master server collecting 9.000 passive services sent from other servers, all with active latencies near 0. The master server checks *only* itself as active services, ~40 services, most of them every 5 minutes. AFAIK passive services should not affect active service check latency statistics. Looking into retention.dat file, the high latencies are all related to the local executed active services.

Re: [Nagios-users] How many hosts and services are you monitoring with Nagios?
Impressive :) We're monitoring ~2000 hosts and ~1 services, every 5 minutes. Architecture used: OPSView Community edition, the last free version before it started to make the distributed version commercial :/ Two central servers (active/standby - drbd) as single point for management and collecting all passive checks executed by the slave servers. Performance data saved into rrd files as well on an external BIG database server. Configuration resides on a cluster MySQL installation (drbd). 4 slave datacenter installations with 2 servers per datacenter in active/active load balancing. Traps handling supported on all servers with rules logic. Pros: - Open Source: at least until version 3 - for our setup. Simple single instance with fewer functions available as well on version 4. - Easy to manage: the prupose was to create monitoring system and then let the management to other people with less technical skills - distributed setup - RBAC Disadvantages: - no longer Open Source: see above - Central server suffering on cpu by GUI implementation and other bg jobs - Not all nagios parameters editable as we like: i.e. cannot customize same checks with different intervals without having to re-create new ones. Think on HTTP service on servers with different loads and the need to extend the retries on high load servers. no way expect creating HTTP and HTTP High Load services. Maybe there are more pros (and disadvantages), but it's not the right place. BTW I'll look forward to wait for this solution; seems interesting!

Re: [Nagios-users] R: how to manage a distributed configuration
OPSview is based on Nagios 3.2.3. It's a sort of wrap-up solution using nagios capabilities to monitor and external objects like NRD, event-broker NDO, nagios plugins, to let all works together. In fact it's a Nagios installation but without the needs to put hands on all cfg files. It is really a big improovment. Even if I'm coming from pure nagios installation (for years I've edited these files manually) the advantages having all configured in one pint with a nice GUI is really a big advantage. Ok, this solution doesn't give you 100% the ability to play with all options as you wish but it covers really much more what most of the monitoring installations requires. Of course thats my personal opinion.

Re: [Nagios-users] Semi-newbie Question
AFAIK if you have configured a service to check 3 times befor send any notification, than this option cannot be override: http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/nagioscore/3/en/statetypes.html The first two non-ok states are in SOFT-STATE based on the max_check_attempts. You could try with event_handlers but are most used to correct an issue instead to force a notification, but could fit. They could be trigged in SOFT-STATE too. http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/nagioscore/3/en/eventhandlers.html BTW this would not log correctly the 503 error as an HARD-STATE issue for report pruposes. I would set up a new service. It's cleaner. It could be a wrap-up of the check_http script to handle only 503 errors. Hope it helps!

Re: [Nagios-users] PCI GSM Modem sources.
Never used PCI GSM cards. We are using smstools and two Nokia 6310i connected via serial port (rs232). It does great the work on two nagios servers since 2001. I've tested an old Falcom A2 GSM modem as well, with zero issues. If you need send only sms an old/stable gsm phone does the work very well. the card (business or prepaid) then you decide to use is up to you. It does not only send alarms. I use it to have a nagios status on demand via sms if I receive an sms-alarm and I would like to check if 5mins later the alarm is gone, in example sending an sms to the server. smstools can handle incoming sms as well and, in example, execute a script which parse the status.log of nagios and checks whether an alarm is still active or not sending back an sms.

Ah, my Nagios version (Nagios 3.0.3).
Also why all my hosts are checked more or less every 4 seconds? :(
Thank's!
The information provided so far indicates that hosts will only be
checked on demand, as you expect. That means, probably, either the
information is incorrect or they're being checked on demand. Since the
normal interval for actions in nagios is measured in minutes, I'd lean
toward the on-demand side of things.
Can you post the host definition from status.dat.
Can you post relevant log entries for the host and any services on
that host near the host checks. You may need to increase your logging
options in nagios.cfg.
Is the 4 second number in any way significant to your installation? Is
your time_interval less than 60?
Debug mode is available to you to figure out what's going on. This is
almost certainly going to be your best source for resolution.
Good morning.
With time_interval do you mean interval_lenght?
I've set it to 1. In this way I've set all checks in seconds, because I need
for certain services a retry interval of

With time_interval do you mean interval_lenght?
I did, sorry about that.
I've set it to 1. In this way I've set all checks in seconds,
because I need for certain services a retry interval of 30seconds.
Good to know.
Here additional infos:
# NAGIOS STATUS FILE
#
# THIS FILE IS AUTOMATICALLY GENERATED
# BY NAGIOS. DO NOT MODIFY THIS FILE!
cut
hoststatus {
host_name=MY-WINDOWS-EXAMPLE-SERVER
modified_attributes=3
check_command=check-host-alive
check_period=24hx7
notification_period=24hx7
check_interval=5.00
Nagios is configured to check this host every 5 seconds (5 x
interval_length). If you meant this to be 5 minutes, the value should
be 300.

Thank's Marc, but let me understood... Should Nagios perform host checks only
if needed?
I.e. if a service goes critical or change state?
Or are true both questions?

Re: [Nagios-users] Question about host checks
Please help, noone has an idea?
Ah, my Nagios version (Nagios 3.0.3).
Also why all my hosts are checked more or less every 4 seconds? :(
Thank's!

Hi to all!
I'm using nagios for a long time and this is the first time I ask a
question... it means until today all is gone
perfectly, great product!
A week ago I've installed 'ndoutils-1.4b7' to log into a MySQL server.
After some days I've seen the table 'nagios_hostchecks' is groving up very
fast, its 3 times bigger than
'nagios_servicechecks' even if I've 688 hosts and 1346 services, also more
services than hosts.
Analyzing the content of the 'nagios_hostchecks' table, I've seen It seems
Nagios is checking the host status VERY OFTEN.
Also checking the nagios Queue and the Last Check Time of my hosts, the
date/time is updating every few seconds.
Should not nagios check the host state only on demand when needed? It happens
on all my hosts.
I paste an example of one host configuration:
host...
define host {
host_name cut_my_host
alias Windows 2000 Server
address cut_my_ip
use host_alarm_A
parents cut_my_sw_parent
contact_groups noc-group,tech24h-group
}
...template...
define host {
namehost_alarm_A
process_perf_data 0
retain_status_information 1
flap_detection_enabled 0
retain_nonstatus_information1
active_checks_enabled 1
passive_checks_enabled 0
check_period24hx7
obsess_over_host0
check_freshness 0
check_command check-host-alive
max_check_attempts 2
event_handler_enabled 0
notifications_enabled 1
notification_interval 3600
notification_period 24hx7
notification_optionsd,u,r
register0
}
...check
define command {

command_line
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ping -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w 3000.0,80% -c
5000.0,100% -p 1
}
Any suggestion?
Thank's!
