Re: [Nagios-users] Service inherit contacts from host
Hi Justin, you are not the first person asking this :-) In short: For Nagios 2.x it is as you say and the only way is to use templates to ease the configuration. For Nagios 3 the contacts for the services are inherited from the host. More service templates ease the coding a bit, Depending on how strict the separation between the departments is consider splitting up your configuration in directories, one for each department. This can help to build a hierarchical configuration tree. hth, Ingo -- Ingo Lantschner Vienna/Austria Mob (+43-664) 143 84 18 - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

[Nagios-users] DHCP
Hi , Am Sujith H. I am using Nagios. I have a doubt regaurding the nagios(2.0 version) plugin check_dhcp. I get the DHCP offers when DHCP server(one or more) is running in the same subnet (its for testing). But if its from different subnet is there any other plugin available!!!

[Nagios-users] Soft critical state and sound alarms
Hi Dear, I've a question on how avoid that my Nagios System avoid to play the sound when it is on an attempt 1/4 or 2/4. What I like would be that Nagios play the sound only when definitively the process was down ( after 4/4 ). And Eventually is possible to avoid that a soft state give me a CRITICAL on web interface?

Re: [Nagios-users] sensor temperature
Hmm. Not much cheaper at all , once you've bought either the PC plus serial/parallel adapter or their ethernet adapter (at $259) to connect the temperature sensor.

Even then I still have to run a cron job that checks for nagios children than are spinning on the CPU as a result of this fork issue. I've found that somewhere after 1500+ service checks there will be a random weekly event that causes almost a hundred nagios checks to hit this fork issue all at the same time and promptly tank the FreeBSD server. Skimming the (long) discussion thread, my first thought is to try libthr instead of libkse. The discussion seems to be on 5.x, I'd definitely try libthr on 6.x. Check libmap.conf for details. Are you referring to this type of mapping within /etc/libmap.conf? [/usr/local/bin/nagios] libpthread.so.2 libthr.so.2 libpthread.so libthr.so If so I'd be willing to try it on my FreeBSD 6.2 server.

You have probably looked into this, but how about lm_sensors in Linux? It shows the temp and fan speed on each motherboard in the rack. With good charting of temps, you can profile where hot spots appear in a rack, and even compare one rack vs. another. The temps aren't always accurate for all I2C sensor chips though.

Re: [Nagios-users] Perf data / Graphs

Getting NagiosGrapher adapted to lots of different checks is much more time consuming for me, so I can't simply create an example for you. and so far I haven't seen anyone in here unwilling to share experience, which I plan to do as well once I get a good hang of this. I thought that was what these mailing lists was for I'm not unwilling to share experience, only my experiences won't help you. (I also don't know what exactly you want to graph...). Yes I stated that -- getting performance data from memory, cpu load, disk, service, process that can be shown in graphs Then post, for example, the output you get for the memory checks, and I'll see how a regex should look that matches parts of the output. I use check_nt to monitor windows hosts, and the plugins return stuff like CPU Load 23% (5 min average) | '5 min avg Load'=23%;80;90;0;100 which is captures by the following ngraph configuration: define ngraph{ service_nameWindows Load graph_perf_regex=(\d+)%; graph_value load graph_units CPU Usage % graph_legendavg load rrd_plottypeAREA rrd_color EACC00 } The regex gets the digits between = and %, which is stored in the rrd file. So far, this is only a matter of following the NagiosGrapher instructions and reading man 1 perlre. I don't graph more than the above in this case, which I set up following the NagiosGrapher instructions and the rrdtols manual. To the graphs, I add some statistics: define ngraph{ service_nameWindows Load typeGPRINT print_sourceload print_description Current print_function LAST print_format%.1lf%% } define ngraph{ service_nameWindows Load typeGPRINT print_sourceload print_description Maximum print_function MAX print_format%.1lf%% } define ngraph{ service_nameWindows Load typeGPRINT print_sourceload print_description Average print_function AVERAGE print_format%.1lf%% } I'm still unsure where exactly your problem is... is it understanding how to capture numbers from the plugin output? Or is it in setting up all the graphical elements you want? If you really can't figure that out, drop me a mail and ask for paid consulting ;-) If I needed paid consulting I would surely ask for it, I know that sooner or later I will get help here on the mailing list, once I get the help I will post it back here... for FREE.

Re: [Nagios-users] Excluding timeperiods
Hi, if I'm not missing something, you want to be notified everytime except between 04:00 and 04:30, am I right? If this is what you want, simply dedine something like this in your timeperiod.cfg: define timeperiod { timeperiod_name foobar alias Foo Bar sunday 00:00-04:00,04:30-24:00 monday 00:00-04:00,04:30-24:00 tuesday 00:00-04:00,04:30-24:00 wednesday 00:00-04:00,04:30-24:00 thursday00:00-04:00,04:30-24:00 friday 00:00-04:00,04:30-24:00 saturday00:00-04:00,04:30-24:00 } And then you just have to apply this timeperiod to every object you want.

[Nagios-users] scheduling queue and check interval
Forgive me if this has been covered previously: I am not very active on the lists. I found some posts about this subject a long time ago in v1 but am wondering if is this still an issue or is something that can be resolved. I run a pretty decent sized Nagios config (version 2.2 672/3612 hosts/services) and have been struggling lately to understand why my latency is so high (0.08 / 2310.79 / 1451.444 sec) and my scheduling queue is about 30 minutes behind schedule. It's probably because I have mostly active checks, many of which are nrpe checks and take a few seconds each. It takes about 5 hours for Nagios to catch up on the scheduling queue after a restart. I've read over the documentation dozens of times and think I understand the basic scheduling logic. I have toyed with all the available options, but one thing became obvious to me that seemed to be disregarded, and that is the check interval. When the checks get scheduled, they start alphabetically based on hostname, and get interleaved based on the interleave factor if that option is turned on. Now, suppose I have 260 hosts named An thru Zn, and most of the hosts run a slew of checks that are slow and only scheduled to check once an hour. However, hosts Xn, Yn and Zn are critical servers that have checks that are supposed to run every 2 minutes. Also, suppose for now interleaving is turned off. When Nagios starts up, it schedules the checks without regard to the normal_check_interval. This means the checks for hosts XYZ have to wait till A-W get processed, and may not get scheduled for (as in my case) a long time, missing their 2 minute window. Of course, turning on interleaving can alleviate SOME of this, but that seems hit and miss depending on the alphabetical placement of your critical hosts, and as you can imagine, if you multiply the numbers, the problem gets worse. It seems in this scenario it would make sense to have a configuration option available that would allow you to initially schedule the highest priority checks first (those with the lowest normal_check_interval) so that they can finish and get rescheduled right away. Another thought would be to use an external script to parse the config and sort the checks by check interval then manipulate the scheduling queue. I would be interested to hear what others are doing to overcome this. I don't want to bother the group with the details of tuning my config, more so discuss the theory of this type of scheduling logic. - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
