|

|
| Ok!
|
| I run this command from console and everything goes fine. To test, I've

|
| The problem is, when I put it into service.cfg for nagios run the
| command, I've realized that nagios is not threating the return. If the
| service is down, nagios keeps showing me that the service is OK.
|
| In command.cfg file, I've changed the line check_http command to add one
| more argument that I need.
|
| The default is check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$ $ARG1$.
|
| I've changed it to check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$ $ARG1$ $ARG2$

I would probably change this to check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -u $ARG1$
- -s $ARG2$

and change the services.cfg to:

check_http!www.somehost.com.br!/heartbeat.asmx/Web!'boolean
xmlns=http://www.somehost.com.br/;true/boolean'
|
| In services.cfg file I put check_http!www.somehost.com.br -u
| /heartbeat.asmx/Web!'boolean
| xmlns=http://www.somehost.com.br/;true/boolean'
| http://www.somehost.com.br/%22%3Etrue%3C/boolean%3E'
|
| I think that nagios is doesn't recognizing the sintax.
|
| My queustino is...
|
| In the lines that I put above, Is there anything I am missing?
|

| Fabiano Martins

I'm thinking that the parser might be getting confused with the -u
option and/or the whitespace and is ignoring the string check. I would
also suggest posting in simple text to mailing lists, especially when
you paste configurations, since  HTML output can confuse the actual
command you are trying to show.

Hope this Helps,

Re: [Nagios-users] separate webfront

You shouldn't even have to be that elaborate, just use an external web
server as a proxy (using mod_rewrite and mod_proxy) and restrict things
at the external portal (i.e., no commands, namespace exclusions, etc.).

Re: [Nagios-users] different contact_groups not used

 Hi folks,
 
 we are running Nagios 2.3.1 and use different email contacts that are 
 consolidated in different contact_groups which are used within the host 
 definitions.
 

Are you doing any templating for your host or service objects? It sounds
like you are overriding your contact_group definition at some point, so
you're going to have to figure out where that is occurring.

 But ALL email notifications are sent to the same contact(_group), not 
 minding which contact_group is used in the host/service definition that 
 email is concerned about.
 
 I have tried to find a fault in nagios.cfg and in the several other cfg 
 files, but there seems to be none.
 
 Any help or hint is appreciated.
 
 Dirk

It's hard to tell what you have defined without looking over your config
file(s), but for starters, what does the command nagios -v
/path/to/nagios_config_file show? Are there any contact errors?

 Things are getting a little crazy, and I haven't even been logging very much!
 
 e.g.
 
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] run]# find / *nagios*  -type f -size +100k
 -exec ls -lh {} \; | awk '{ print $9 :  $5 }'
 /var/log/nagios/archives/nagios-08-14-2007-00.log: 2.3G

 gzip comes to mind, since this is ASCII data it should compress nicely.
Also, there are several log rotation scripts out there, including the
logrotate utility supplied in RedHat and other Linux distros. Try man
logrotate' on one of them for more information.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios fails the SNMP check, command line works fine

2007-08-15 Thread Tom Nail

Ajitabh,

does your target machine have an SNMP v3 secName/password set up for the
nagios user? This sounds suspiciously like a permissions problem. Try this:

su -l nagios -c snmpwalk -v 3 -u nagios -X passwd target_host

And see what it returns.

cheers,

 Hi,
 
 I am facing a very strange problem. This problem is only on certain 
 hosts. The monitored hosts are a mix of win2k and win2003 servers with 
 SNMP enabled.
 
 When I run the plugins from command line (see below):
 
 /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/contrib/check_snmp_storage.pl -H 
 myhost01.tld.com  -C public -2 -T pu -m ^C -w 80 -c 90
 C:\ Label:System  Serial Number d04cc42c: 59%used(6524MB/2MB) (80%)

 [EMAIL PROTECTED] services]$ 
 /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/contrib/check_snmp_storage.pl -H 
 myhost01.tld.com  -C public -2 -T pu -m ^D -w 80 -c 90
 D:\ Label:Data  Serial Number 1442142f: 71%used(364130MB/514064MB) 
 (80%) : OK
 
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] services]$

 myhost01.tld.com  -C public -2 -T pu -m Virtual -w 80 -c 90
 Virtual Memory: 52%used(3871MB/7428MB) (80%) : OK
 
 They all work. But the same plugins commands when run by nagios gives me 
 error:
 ERROR: Description/Type table : No response from remote host '192.168.0.110'
 
 This problem is on certain hosts (around 10-15) and is working fine on 
 some other 300+ servers. I have listed only few checks, but the fact is 
 all SNMP checks are giving exactly the same problems. Other checks viz 
 direct TCP port connections, HTTPD service checks etc are working fine.
 
 What could be the reason? Nagios version is 2.8 and all plugins are 
 downloaded from nagiosexchange website. I dont have any reason to 
 suspect my command and service definitions as the same checks are 
 working ok for other similarly configured hosts.
 
 I am in a sort of urgent need of a solution, so an early reply will be 
 appreciated
 
 Regards.
