[Nagios-users] Monitoring HP Procurve Interfaces
Hello, I am trying to monitor the interfaces on my HP Procurve 5400 series switch. I have tried both check_iftraffic3 and check_snmp_int. The commands work perfectly from the command line. However the web interface reports (return code of 255 is out of bounds) for check_iftraffic3 and (return code of 127 is out of bounds) for check_snmp_int . I am able to monitor all other hardware on the switch through Nagios just fine. Any thoughts on this? Thanks. Martin T.

Re: [Nagios-users] Monitoring HP Procurve Interfaces
Here is my command:
/usr/bin/perl ./check_iftraffic3.pl -H 10.4.228.2 -C password -i F24 -b 1000
-I 1000 -O 1000 -u m
And it returns:
Average IN: 3.63MBs (2.91%), Average OUT: 3.93MBs (3.14%)brTotal RX: 1634.52
MBytes, Total TX: 2705.54 MBytes|inUsage=2.91%;85;98 outUsage=3.14%;85;98
inBandwidth=3.63MBs outBandwidth=3.93MBs inAbsolut=1713920494
outAbsolut=2836966927
I did notice that when I run the command from the command line (as Nagios user)
it writes the file to /tmp but I do not see the file being updated by Nagios.
Plus, if I delete the file created by the command line operation, nothing get
saved to /tmp when the web check happens.

Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Monitoring HP Procurve Interfaces
I believe the problem is that the code being returned is not 0,1,2 for (ok,
warning, critical) and so nagios doesn't like it.
When you run the command manually from the command line, what is the result
returned?

Re: [Nagios-users] Notification Emails
Have you defined an internal mail connector on your EXCH2010 Hub server(s) for internal smtp servers that you want to allow to send out mail through your Exchange Server? Setup their IP Addresses in the lower portion of the Network Tab and select the appropriate permissions and groups on the Authentication and Permission Groups tabs? Since your Nagios was sending mail OK to your EXCH2003 system, I agree it is likely a 2010 issue, not a Nagios one. Martin T.

Re: [Nagios-users] R: smstools3 with nagios
Hi Marco, Not sure if this will help but I had a similar problem trying to monitor bandwidth on my HP Procurve switch ports. Command line worked OK, Nagios command failed. The solution was to hard code my password in the command definition instead of a variable and take that part out of the service definition. e.g. Command Definition: $USER1$/check_iftraffic3.pl -h $HOSTADDRESS$ -C $USER3$ -i etc Replace $USER3$ with actual password string. Service Definition: check_iftraffic3!pwd!28!1000 Remove !pwd from service definition. Hope this helps in some way.

There's still one problem though: When a host goes down, nagios sends notifications not only for host down, but also for all services running on that host. When a host goes down, I would like nagios to only send notifications about the host down, and not for all the services running on that host. How can I achive that?

Not sure if it will help you but when I had a check reporting a similar plug-in

Subject: [Nagios-users] Non obvious 127 plugin error
Good day folks,
I've spent the better part of a week using Google and combing forums for
an answer to this question without much luck. First the specs:
Nagios version 3.2.3
Nagios and associated plugins installed on CentOS 5.6 and Fedora 15
servers via package management (i.e. yum)
I have a couple plugins that simply won't execute. One of which is the
check_dig command. I'll use this for an example.
From the commands.cfg file for Nagios:
define command{
command_namecheck_dns
command_line/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_dig -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -l
$ARG1$ -a $ARG2$ -w $ARG3$ -c $ARG4$ -t $ARG5$
}
From the Nagios log file:
[1306863226] Warning: Return code of 127 for check of service
'DNS-Check' on host 'TS-TOR-DNS-1' was out of bounds. Make sure the
plugin you're trying to run actually exists.
Okay, first to see if it exists:
[root@nms ~]# locate check_dig
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_dig
[root@nms ~]#
Ownership and permissions check:
[root@nms ~]# ls -l /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_dig
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 nagios nagios 43292 Mar 23 15:42
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_dig
[root@nms ~]#
Try running it as root:
[root@nms ~]# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_dig *BLANKED* -l *BLANKED*
-a *BLANKED* -c 5 -w 0.25
DNS OK - 0.005 seconds response time (*BLANKED*. 900 IN A
*BLANKED*)|time=0.004967s;0.25;5.00;0.00
So it works as root. Now to try as Nagios user:
[root@nms ~]# su - nagios
-bash-4.2$ /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_dig *BLANKED* -l *BLANKED* -a
*BLANKED* -c 5 -w 0.25
DNS OK - 0.005 seconds response time (*BLANKED*. 900 IN A
*BLANKED*)|time=0.004967s;0.25;5.00;0.00
It works as the Nagios user as well.
So, I'm sure you can see my confusion. The plugin exists and is
executable for a user on the system, but even when called directly as
opposed to using the $USER1$ macro, the Nagios process can't run it.
Any thoughts anyone?
Cheers!

Re: [Nagios-users] error: (Return code of 127 is out of bounds - plugin may be missing)
Typically, one can see that error if the actual plugin is missing from your plugins folder (path will vary depending on distro and source). Check that the actual plugins are there. Also, check that the command functions from the command line. Be sure to test it as the nagios user, if it works as root but not nagios then it's likely permissions. If it doesn't work from command line and the plugins are there, check your syntax and, if neccessary recompile your plugins. Martin T.

Is that path correct for your installation? I installed on CentOS 5.x from source and my path is different /usr/local/Nagios/libexec.

Re: [Nagios-users] Help required please for custom OWA monitor
Hi John, Wow, that's a tall order. The account used for the monitor would need full access to all mailboxes, an admin nightmare in any Exchange environment. I am intrigued by the problem though. Do the suspect emails open correctly in a desktop client? If you examine the messages, what is bloating the size? Do you have message size limits in place, if so, does removing them make the error go away? What, if any, log entries are created on the Exchange server when this occurs? Could you simply monitor the event logs for that error? Not really an answer I'm afraid but it is an interesting problem (albeit frustrating for you I'm sure). Martin T.

What I want to do is check individual emails via outlook web access (OWA) for a specific error. The error occurs when the email is opened and is related to an archiving tool we are using. For information, the achieving tool is EAS. The error manifests itself in two ways. Firstly when the email is opened via OWA a HTTP 5000 Internal Server error appears. Is it possible to create a monitor to log on to account, open the first email and capture the resulting error? The second way the error can be detected is by examining the size of the email in OWA if the email is 25k it is likely that the problem exists. So my second question is, is it possible to monitor a OWA account and check for emails of a particular size. If you have any ideas of how to resolve this issue please contact me.

Hi
I want to get information for hosts and services when user needs it using
Service Command - Re-schedule the next check of this service in Nagios GUI. I
write submit command in commands.cfg and in services.cfg I define passive
service which is used that command as check command.
I used the sample script provided by Nagios for sending commands to Nagios.
Script successfully execute in terminal but when I initiate from Nagios GUI
using Reschedule Service Command, it gets executed and after that it gets to OK
state with (null) plugin output every time as shown in below nagios logs.
I used the nagios 3.2.2, nagios pugins 1.4.15 and Fedora 12 32bit.
Following is the configuration, nagios log file and sample scripts.
Commands.cfg

Subject: [Nagios-users] Where can arguments go?
I'm looking to use a special check command to verify routers are in
operation by checking the main link port of the router (instead of the
default ping). I'm running into confusion, because I need to specify a
port number in the host definition, and I can't really see how to do it.
I use soemthing like this for a template:
define host {
namesnmp-switch ; The name of this host template
use generic-switch
#check_command check-host-alive ; Default command to check if
routers
are alive
check_command check-snmp-switch-alive $HOSTADDRESS$ $ARG1$
$ARG2$
register0 ; DONT REGISTER THIS - ITS JUST
A TEMPLATE
}
I'm not sure the args on the check_command line are legal And I'm not
sure that arguments on a use snmp-switch line referencing this could
have arguments on them.
Is this a possible / sane thing to do? Is this the right way to approach
it, or am I missing a way that actually makes sense?

[Nagios-users] Weird Nagios Problem
I have been running Nagios for over a year with no issues. All of a sudden, all of my current loads on my linux servers all go into warning state at the same time, showing the exact same load, which then increments every hour to critical. After a while (3 or 4 hours) they all come back down to normal. Checking on the servers themselves using HTOP shows normal load levels throughout the time period. Another issue is one check_Interface_Table that returns 255 out of bounds but over 30 others (in the same service group using the same command) return normal. The problem is obviously with Nagios but I don't know where to look. Any suggestions? Martin T.

[Nagios-users] Nagios not working except for local host
Hello, My Nagios server died and I am having to rebuild (ran well for the best part of two years). I am running Nagios Core 3.4.3 on Ubuntu 12.04 and have added pnp4nagios 0.6.19. Nagios and pnp4nagios were installed from source. I believe I have configured it correctly but I have obviously missed something.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios not working except for local host
Thanks for the Reponses guys. I went back and reconfigured from source and now
Nagios is working! So now it's on to pnp4nagios and then NRPE.
Thanks again.

Martin,
Remember that the UI shows you hosts and services based on the user you're
logged into the UI as (or the user that apache thinks you are and then passes
that on to the Nagios CGIs). The hosts/services shown to a userid in the UI
are based on either what Nagios thinks that user is a contact for (i.e. that id
is a contact for a given host or service therefore you see it in the UI) or
based on what settings you have for that user in your cgi.cfg file.
So if you're logged in as martin in the UI and martin doesn't match a
contact in Nagios, then you would want to change your cgi.cfg to give martin
permissions to say view all hosts, etc.

Subject: [Nagios-users] Nagios not working except for local host
Hello,
My Nagios server died and I am having to rebuild (ran well for the best part of
two years). I am running Nagios Core 3.4.3 on Ubuntu 12.04 and have added
pnp4nagios 0.6.19. Nagios and pnp4nagios were installed from source. I believe
I have configured it correctly but I have obviously missed something.
My Nagios pre-flight check shows no errors (one warning about a host with no
services assigned - which I am aware of), it correctly lists the number of
hosts and services but, when I go to the web interface, it only shows the local
host.
Can anyone suggest where I might start troubleshooting this?
Thanks very much.

[Nagios-users] Nagios Permissions Error ?
Hi Everyone, I have recently rebuilt Nagios 3.4.3 on Ubuntu 12.04 and am having a problem with a couple of plugins that I think is related to a permissions issue. I installed from source as root (sudo su). I can run ./usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_iftraffic4.pl -H ipaddress -C communitystring -i F24 -b 100 -u m from the command line as root no problem, however the web interface shows critical (nul). If I try to run the same command logged in as any other user, I get Can't locate Net/DNS.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /root/perl5/lib/perl5/x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi /root/perl5/lib/perl5 /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.14.2 /usr/local/share/perl/5.14.2 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.14 /usr/share/perl/5.14 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at ./usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_iftraffic4.pl line 247.

Re: [Nagios-users] Log Rotations Issue
Hi Alaric, I had a similar issue and never did figure it out. Unfortunately, I only had one server but it was virtual so I just built a new one from scratch and transferred my configs.

I upgraded both my Dev server, and my Production server, and only my Prod servers seems to have the issue. Both run the same code, and both have the same configs. I'm confident the configs as the same, as both get the configs deployed via puppet. I've googled around quite a bit, and haven't had any luck figuring it out. Has anyone seen anything similar? My feeling, based on the behavior of my Dev server is that it's not a problem with the code, but that something got stuck but I'm darned if I can figure out what. I've cleared out the logs, restarted nagios, rebooted the server. Audited configs and checked the debug output. Any help is much appreciated! -a -- Everyone hates slow websites. So do we.

Re: [Nagios-users] ESXi/vCenter Monitoring
Hi Daniel, We monitor our VM servers with Nagios but point to their IP addresses in the hosts.cfg. Since these don't change and Nagios doesn't care what VM host the server is running it is not a problem. We make the network switch the parent, not the VMware host. -- Martin T.

We also use vSphere DRS to help keep the load on host systems balanced. Due to the DRS, our VM's can sometimes move around from being on one host to being on another w/o my knowledge beforehand. Does anyone know if there is any sort of plugin available for Nagios Core that would basically talk to my vCenter system and find out what VM's are on which hosts, and automatically update that VM's Parent directive in the host definition?
