Re: [Nagios-users] Very slow startup of Nagios when using NDO

2008-03-19 Thread Caio Peres Sabo
I have a Nagios-3.0 server with ndo 1.4b7.

My Nagios-3.0 server has 14.300 passive checks.
One statistcs for startup:

- With NDO (~20 minutes):
Begin Start time: Wed Mar 19 17:29:58 BRT 2008
End Start time: Wed Mar 19 17:47:18 BRT 2008

- Without NDO (~10 seconds):
Begin Start time: Wed Mar 19 17:52:12 BRT 2008
End Start time: Wed Mar 19 17:52:23 BRT 2008

With configuration equals into Nagios-2.0 with NDO-1.4b4, startup time is ~4 
minutes
Why doesn't Nagios3 scale with NDOb7?

Thanks,
Caio Sabo

Yes.  In earlier versions I think there was a problem with a wrong/missing 
index on at least one of the tables.  When the ndo daemon starts, it attempts 
to delete old records from the table and this delete takes ages.  If you 
monitor your sql database while Nagios is starting, you can probably see the 
relevant sql running (I used phpMyAdmin for this).  I got around the problem by 
configuring ndo only to store a tiny amount of information like so (in 
ndo2db.cfg).

# Keep timed events for 24 hours
max_timedevents_age=1440

# Keep system commands for 1 week
max_systemcommands_age=10080

# Keep service checks for 1 days
max_servicechecks_age=1440

# Keep host checks for 1 week
max_hostchecks_age=10080

# Keep event handlers for 31 days
max_eventhandlers_age=44640


I've also found it doesn't seem to matter (to me, your experience may be 
different) if I terminate the offending SQL session in MySQL to allow ndo to 
start more quickly.  Typically I only resort to doing this if I've had ndo 
disabled for a while then start it up - it then has more deletions than usual 
to wade through.

As Patrick said, I think the index is fixed in later versions of ndo.
If you're stuck with an earlier version I guess it should be fairly easy to 
identify where an index would help and add one yourself.  I'm sorry I can't 
remember precisely which the problemmatic table was.

hth,

Jim

Hi all,
 
my Nagios server's startup with activated NDO is very slow (appr. 2-3 minutes)!
 
anyone else seeing this behaviour? possibility to speed it up (besides

Yes -- slow startups with ndoutils enabled are very common.

Things to do to speed it up would include having the database on good,
fast box, limiting the amount of history Nagios keeps in the databases,
and making sure you have a recent version of ndoutils -- it's gotten
faster than it used to be.
