[Nagios-users] pfSense Event Handler

2013-01-15 Thread Bruno Martins
Hello list,

I was wondering if anyone ever had the need of creating an event handler for 
Nagios, which restarts an IPsec VPN tunnel (in pfSense), after a DOWN HARD 
state occurs.

Thanks,

Bruno Martins

 Tx for your efforts -  yet the download menu for Nagios Core,

[Nagios-users] Service check goes HARD too quick if multiple service are in problem state

2013-01-15 Thread Andrew Thompson
Hi,

I have had this problem previously and posted here but not go nowhere with it.

Ill have another bash.

Basically my nagios machine is checking too frequently and firing out alerts 
too quickly

Its ignoring the retry_interval value, the max_check_attempts value and 
ingoring the notification_interval  value in the escalations.

I have check interval of 5 minutes in OK state
Retry interval of 3 minutes when in problem state
Notification interval of 3 minutes

I believe that below is the problem and multiple service checks in problem 
state at the same time is casuing this.


Ive just seen this on 1 of my hosts:

It appears its accumulating the service checks (even though they are different 
checks) into a final HARD state.

Prior to 17:18 all was fine on this host!!!


Then at 17:18 a SQL check went to warning state and to SOFT 1

Checked again at 17:21 which is the 3 minute interval I have told it too when 
in problem and its still warning so onto SOFT2

Then a different service check on that host goes critical - but for the first 
time

17:22 memory usage and it puts this to HARD 3 - even though this actual check 
for memory should be SOFT1

An alert then got sent straight out for the Memory check even though it was 
actually only check 1/3 on that particular service

Here is the copy and past from the History of the host

[01-15-2013 17:18:24]

SERVICE ALERT: SERVER;MEMORY USAGE;CRITICAL;HARD;3;CRITICAL: physical memory: 
Total: 10G - Used: 9.81G (98%) - Free: 192M (2%)  critical



Does anybody please have any idea why my server is checking too frequently and 
alerting too frequently and why its totting up different service checks?

This machine has done nothing but not work right since it was loaded a couple 
months ago.
Im using the come config files on it as I did on the previous box I had - only 
difference was that was running 3.3.1 - I had none of these problems on that 
install.


This is a Nagios 3.4.1 install on a Ubuntu 12.04 desktop 32 bit OS



Thanks in advance

2013-01-15 Thread Justin T Pryzby
You could check that the check intervals show up right in
objects.cache.

You could also try stopping nagios (check with ps that you don't have
multiple daemons running), removing the generated files and restarting
(note that this will cause notifications to be sent from scratch; you
may want to disable them first).

/var/cache/nagios3/
objects.cache  status.dat

/var/lib/nagios3/
retention.dat

[Nagios-users] Nagios Update Check Is Not Running

2013-01-15 Thread Jon Adcock
 
  I noticed that the main.php page update_available blue flag never appears for 
me when a new version of Nagios is available.  I do have check_for_updates=1, 
but I see the following at the top of the Nagios status.dat file:
info {
created=1358284500
version=3.4.1
last_update_check=1340002591
update_available=1
last_version=3.3.1
new_version=3.4.1
}
 
  What that tells me is that the Nagios function (that checks to see if there 
is an update available) hasn't run since 6/18.2012 6:56:31 GMT (1340002591).  I 
am seeing similar indications on my other Nagios servers.  
1)  Is there a way to force Nagios to CHECK NOW?
2)  Does the update_check log it's results somewhere?
3)  Do you have any recommendations on how I should approach this problem?
 
  I am running Nagios v3.4.1 on one server and v3.4.3 on the other two.  They 
are running on SLES 10 SP3 64-bit.

Yes. This is my fault. I'm one of the core maintainers, but I also take care
of maintaining the nagios package for op5. Pretty much the only thing we
change in our version is to disable update checks with a hardcoded return
statement in the function that issues the actual check, since our customers
get their updates from us in the form of RPM packages. Once upon a time a
patch spilled over to the Nagios repository that had that change, so the
update check was broken sometime between 3.3.1 and 3.4.4.

I believe it's fixed in 3.4.4 though, with kudos to Eric Stanley for fixing
the problem.

 1)  Is there a way to force Nagios to CHECK NOW?

Not that I know of, and it wouldn't work with the hardcoded avoid update
checks at all cost patch in place anyway.

 2)  Does the update_check log it's results somewhere?

Only in the status_file.

 3)  Do you have any recommendations on how I should approach this problem?
   

Upgrade to the latest version manually and then the update checks should
start working again.

I'm really sorry for the inconvenience.
