Re: [Nagios-users] performance data configuration doubts
hi andy , passive check submissions via nsca can include perf data, theres no restriction on that. Though most of the plugins supports perf data, some of them dont. The example you have mentioned, do return perf data. /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ping -H 8.8.8.8 -w 15,2% -c 20,5% PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 12.28 ms|rta=12.284000ms;15.00;20.00;0.00 pl=0%;2;5;0 however this one dont have explicit flags for disabling/enabling perf data, it always returns perfdata (which is fine i think). But some of the plugins do support additional flags to enable/disable perfdata output. most of the standard plugins(except few) do support perfdata, they can ignore it, as its not mandatory. For more on the perfdata format http://nagiosplug.sourceforge.net/developer-guidelines.html#AEN201 hope this help, regards ranjib On Sun, Apr 8, 2012 at 8:58 PM, asm...@dms.cat wrote: Hi, I'd like to be able to log performance data from Nagios but I have a couple of doubts.

Re: [Nagios-users] Recommendation needed
I'll strongly recommend Graphios+ Graphite. Its bit more work than pnp4nagios or nagiosgraph, bit its totally worth. You can compose custom graphs, overlay multiple graphs etc. Graphite is a graphing/charting solution, while graphios is the nagios add on that can parse nagios performance data and push it in graphite.

Re: [Nagios-users] Dynamically add/remove hosts on Nagios
Have you considered using a configuration management tool like chef or puppet ? They address the exact usecase On Feb 10, 2012 7:08 AM, Felipe Cecagno fceca...@gmail.com wrote: Hi everybody, This is the first time I'm posting on this mailing list, so I'm sorry if my question was already discussed here - I tried to find information about it on the mailing list and also on Nagios documentation + googling, but couldn't find it. Well, I'm setting up Nagios to monitor a group of servers in a cloud environment. I decided to use passive checks, so I will have one Nagios central monitor and all servers push statistics to Nagios using NSCA. Everything is OK so far. The problem is that I want to add and remove instances dynamically, I don't want to manually modify hosts.cfg on the central each time I change my infrastructure. So my idea was that when a new instance gets up, it will send to Nagios something like (always using NSCA): localhost Server UP 0 new instance IP On Nagios I would create a new service on localhost to handle this passive check. I've created a Python script (that uses pynag) to modify the hosts.cfg file in order to add and remove host definitions. When Nagios receives this passive check, I would call the script to modify the hosts definition files, and a cron job would execute every minute to look for modifications on hosts.cfg and make Nagios reload the definition files. My doubts are: - is there a smarter way to do that (dynamically add and remove hosts from Nagios)? - since my Server UP service uses passive checks only, how do I make Nagios call my script to modify hosts.cfg every time it receives the passive check? Any thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated. :) Thank you in advance, Best regards, -- Felipe Cecagno Mconf Development Team https://mconf.org -- Virtualization Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ ___ 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 -- Virtualization Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/___ 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] Antwort: Re: Redundant network monitoring
you can use adaptive monitoring too, where state change in one of the check (the first ip check) will trigger further checks (second ip check); You can chart the performance data by enabled process_performance_data and related configuration and then using nagiosgraph or pnpgraph . Optionally if you have a splunk installation you can use splunk also to graph the performance data regards ranjib On Mon, Jul 11, 2011 at 6:27 AM, radu.p...@technomatic.de wrote: Hello and thank your for your answer!

I would like to be able to get it first over the 192.168.1.1 and if it fails, it should be queried the next interface, 192.168.2.1. If that one fails, it should be put in the critical state.

Re: [Nagios-users] Embedding Icinga or Nagios in Joomla?
I am not aware of any out of the box solution, perhaps you can pull the nagios check data (like having NDOUtils + mysql triggers, or using global event handlers or nsca/nrpe based approaches) and expose it as RESTFull webservices or present it using your own views (who likes the nagios dash board any way) , regards ranjib On Sun, Jun 19, 2011 at 2:52 PM, Kevin Keane subscript...@kkeane.comwrote: I'm looking to public certain information from Nagios (or preferably from Icinga) into a larger Web site.

Re: [Nagios-users] Multiple geographic sites
NSCA can help you out for centralized monitoring by submitting passive checks from different nagios servers to a central one, but i have never worked on tweaking/aggregating those passive checks and apply custom rules to get a single passive check out of them (but given the flexibility of nagios/nsca, i guess there will be a hacky yet smart way for doing this). Otherwise you can definitely use nrpe to get those remote checks aggregated into your central server and then use your custom script to implement your own logic.

Re: [Nagios-users] Flap Detection: Why do only HARD state changes count?
This is by design. As you have mentioned you can tweak the Max check attention to trigger hard state change soon after a soft state transition On May 17, 2011 12:20 AM, Paul M. Dubuc w...@paul.dubuc.org wrote: This isn't explicitly stated in the documentation, but it seems that flap detection state changes only apply to HARD states. So it's possible that a service check and toggle back and forth indefinitely between OK and not OK (unless max_check_attempts is set to 1) and flapping will not be detected. I tested this with a service that does this and verified the behavior. The Last State Change time gets updated with each SOFT state change, but the % state change for flap detection remains at 0% until I set max_check_attempts to 1 and let it toggle between hard state changes. Is this a bug or is it by design? Is there a way to include SOFT state transitions in flap detection?

Re: [Nagios-users] [Spam] acknowledge triggers a script
Im not sure you can invoke a script just by acknowledging it. As the acknowledgement doesnt change the service state. But you can definitely submit a passive check when the service went down , thus triggering a soft to up or hard to up state change. This will be a cleaner solution. You can just use the notification route too but in that case you have to hack a bit (like polling the email/im [whatever you use to notify] and then trigger an even handler). We have implemented the second one, where a ruby script polls the email inbox (via cron) and checks of notification and if it finds certain notification type (like service downtime acknowledgement ) , triggers certain handlers. regards ranjib On Wed, May 11, 2011 at 1:28 AM, Ryan Davis r...@acceleration.net wrote: You might be able to do this with an event handler: http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/eventhandlers.html But I'm not sure if the handler will be run when someone acknowledges. I can think of one round-about way to do it: - make a wrapper program for your fix-it script that checks to see if NOTIFICATIONTYPE is ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, and if so, calls the fix-it script. Any other notification type is ignored. - make a nagios command to call your wrapper program - make a nagios contact for your fix-it script, tell it to use the above nagios command as the service notification command - make a nagios service escalation to notify your fix-it contact all the time When the service is acknowledged, nagios will notify your dummy fix-it contact, who will call your fix-it script.

Re: [Nagios-users] Performing load tests with Nagios
Its weird idea. Even if you try that you will only need the plugins, not the server itself (the cgi and the nagis binaries).

If you are interested in raw OS benchmarks use phoronix or something similar to get he metrics, if you are load testing against a certain app then use JMeter o VSTS (if you are on windows). regards ranjib On Fri, May 6, 2011 at 12:02 AM, ch...@eehmke.de wrote: Hello, I understand that Nagios is the perfect tool to monitor a network and the state of each server.
