check_mk 1.2.3 should do that for you. There's a bit of pain migrating your config into check_mk's WATO, but IMHO it's worth it in the long run. http://mathias-kettner.com/check_mk.html It might be prudent to wait for the check_mk 1.2.3i2 before playing with it, though.

We have been using check_openmanage (brilliant piece of work!) to check the hardware status of our Dell machines, lately we are moving from ESX 4 to ESXi 5 and found that the check_openmanage check could not help us with the monitoring of ESXi 5 hardware, because check_openmanage needs OMSA for its checks. Today I found a other plugin to check ESXi hardware, see http://www.claudiokuenzler.com/nagios-plugins/check_esxi_hardware.php There is one disadvantage to this plugin and that is that you always get the same status details back with a OK. I don't know if it is possible but it would be nice to have the checks from the check_esxi_hardware available in the check_openmanage, only problem is one is written in Python the other in Perl... I hope it helps and that maybe someone (Trond the author of check_openmanage?) can create one check of this.

Re: [Nagios-users] Installing n2rrd with Nagios on Centos 6.2
Can't help but think that using pnp4nagios would be easier :-) Phil -- Phil Randal Infrastructure Engineer Hoople Ltd | Thorn Office Centre | Hereford HR2 6JT Tel: 01432 260415 | Email: phil.ran...@hoopleltd.co.uk -Original Message- From: nelson [mailto:tnels...@comcast.net] Sent: 20 July 2012 08:30 To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] Installing n2rrd with Nagios on Centos 6.2 I am in the process of building a Centos 6.2 system to run Nagios and n2rrd. It is a virtual machine / sandbox. Centos 6.2 is installed as is Nagios 3.4.1 and Nagios Plugins 1.4.15. Nagios and the Nagios Plugins were installed following the Fedora Quick Start instructions at http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/quickstart-fedora.html Nagios was started and I was able to access the Nagios web pages on Apache successfully. It is the basic, just after installation, configuration, but it tells me it is working. The next step was to download and install n2rrd. I downloaded nagios-n2rrd- 1.4.5-1.src.rpm, and started following the instructions at http://n2rrd- wiki.diglinks.com/display/n2rrd/RPM+Source to perform the install. Step 2 rpm -i nagios-n2rrd-1.4.5-1.src.rpm created /root/rpmbuild/SPECS, SOURCES, etc. Step3 and 4 verify the PATHs for ../SPECS/n2rrd.spec and ../SOURCES/... Step 5 executes the rpmbuild -ba /root/rpmbuild/SPECS/n2rrd.spec My first attempt at rpmbuild revealed that I had some problems with some PATHs specified in n2rrd.spec. Nagios is installed entirely in /usr/local/nagios. No problem, now that I know. I made the appropriate (I believe) changes to n2rrd.spec: #nagios related %define nagios_conf_dir /usr/local/nagios/etc %define nagios_data_dir /usr/local/nagios/share %define nagios_lib_dir/usr/local/nagios %define nagios_log_dir/usr/local/nagios/var I'll admit I guessed on the nagios_lib_dir. I fired up a Nagios installation I had on Fedora 14 to compare directory structures and defining it as /usr/local /nagios did not seem unreasonable. I kicked off the rpmbuild -ba /root/rpmbuild/SPECS/n2rrd.spec again and the messages look a bit better. Near the end of the output, I am seeing the following: Processing files: nagios-n2rrd-1.4.5-1.noarch Provides: config(nagios-n2rrd) = 1.4.5-1 Requires(interp): /bin/sh Requires(rpmlib): rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) = 3.0.4-1 rpmlib(FileDigests) = 4.6.0-1 rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) = 4.0-1 Requires(post): /bin/sh Requires: /usr/bin/perl perl(Getopt::Std) perl(IO::Socket) perl(RRDs) perl(strict) perl(vars) Processing files: nagios-n2rrd-rrd2graph-1.4.5-1.noarch Provides: config(nagios-n2rrd-rrd2graph) = 1.4.5-1 Requires(rpmlib): rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) = 3.0.4-1 rpmlib(FileDigests) = 4.6.0-1 rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) = 4.0-1 Requires: /usr/bin/perl perl(CGI) perl(File::Basename) perl(File::Find) perl(File::Temp) perl(RRDs) perl(strict) perl(vars) Checking for unpackaged file(s): /usr/lib/rpm/check-files /root/rpmbuild /BUILDROOT/nagios-n2rrd-1.4.5-1.i386 I believe the above messages are statements produced by the execution rather than errors.

I've recently upgraded from version 3.0.3 to 3.4.1. After the upgrade, I've found a serious problem that I haven't completely solved yet. When using the OCP_daemon, you configure Nagios to forward passive check results by having it write performance data to a named pipe. While on version 3.0.3, all passive check results where being where being written to the perf data named pipe regardless of whether there was performance data or not. Since the upgrade to 3.4.1, check data only gets written to the pipe if the plugin generates perf data. I need all check results, regardless of state to be written to the pipe and forwarded on to the master. Has anyone else encountered this issue and what was the solution.

sorry for not checking prior to posting.
Anyway, I built the new version, btw., why can't you just build the
RPM from the tar? This is what I had to do on RHEL5:
# tar xzf nagios-3.4.1.tar.gz
# mv nagios nagios-3.4.1
# cd nagios-3.4.1
# vim nagios.spec
change datarootdir to datadir in configure statement # cd ..
# tar czf nagios-3.4.1.tar.gz nagios-3.4.1/ # rpmbuild -tb
nagios-3.4.1.tar.gz
Tada, build works.
Back to the problem.
Installed the update, doesn't help. On my sample host with 31 checks
only 18 get submitted via Perfdata. Back to nagios-3.2.3 again and all
31 checks are processed. Please tell me if you need any more details,
performance data template configuration or something like that.
This is a slightly older bug about perfdata not being processed when there is
no perfdata. I'll see if I get time to take a look at it.

I was able to fix it in my check definitions (removing not needed quotes, etc.) in most cases, also using any kind of special character, e.g. | or * fixes this, but I am still unable to pass check results to a remote Nagios instance by sending them via NSCA. I use perfdata processing for this and only check results with special characters (all checks that do actually have performance data fulfill this as they all contain the pipe character) are processed, others never even show up in my definied service_perfdata_file! Switched backed to Nagios 3.2.3 and everything works like a charm. Are both problems connected and fixed in an upcoming 3.4 release?

One solution to that problem is to use Mathias Kettner's check_mk and use its clustered service support: http://mathias-kettner.de/checkmk_clusters.html That's what I do here. Another alternative is to create a third 'host' in Nagios representing the cluster and monitor the services on that, and not on the 'physical' boxes.

Getting check_mk to work the way you want takes a bit of effort, but once
you're used to it there's no turning back.

Hi Trond, Is the beta of check_openmanage.php available for testing? I'm currently using a slightly modified version of the one in the latest PNP release.

I 'solve' this by a judicious use of substr() and str_pad() to normalise the length of reported sensor names.

From: Andrew Davis [mailto:ncc...@gmail.com] Sent: 09 June 2009 16:19 To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] DNS down and false alerts... I've observed an interesting issue with Nagios. Our environment is a mix of UNIX, Linux, Apple, and Windows. The core of the network is Active Directory including two AD servers that are both our primary, internal DNS servers. All non-Windows systems have a resolv.conf that looks like: nameserver 10.1.1.13 nameserver 10.1.1.14 domain int.our.domain search int.our.domain About half of the servers have the nameserver entries inverted (ie: .14 first, .13 second). The issue is that anytime one of the nameservers is rebooted (at least once a month if staying current on patches thanks to Black Tuesdays), whichever hosts have that nameserver listed first in its resolv.conf start throwing the following errors: CRITICAL - Plugin timed out while executing system call. This occurs for multiple tests for each host. Obviously, there's a name resolution correlation here. If the nameserver with .13 is rebooted, all hosts (about half of them) that list this IP first in their resolve.conf then timeout for multiple tests. If the .14 server is rebooted, all the other hosts timeout. Interestingly, none of the Windows clients issue errors... only UNIX, Linux, and Mac's... only those with an /etc/resolv.conf. The end result is a host of false positives, but more importantly it looks bad on availability reports and causes phones/pagers to go ballistic with unneeded emails. I'm trying to find a solution and I can't find one that I like: Solution 1) is to cluster the DNS servers. We have lots of clusters here. This isn't good, though, as you don't normally cluster DNS servers... they're meant to be redundant for a reason... one fails and it uses the next one. Solution 2) is to setup a service/host dependency. My thought would be either a host dependency that says if either .13 or .14 are down, then don't alert for any other host that uses them. Or a service to host dependency... if the DNS service is down, then don't alert on any of these dependent hosts. Honestly, I'm not sure if you can mix host and service dependencies like this... plus... if the DNS server is actually down, then the DNS service is down, so better to use a host dependency. The problem is that now we're not alerting on any dependent hosts which themselves could have a legitimate issue we want to know about. Plus, what happens if the DNS server actually dies and take a few hours/days to rebuild/restore? At this point, the dependent hosts aren't watched for a very long time. Solution 3) is to setup a UNIX/Linux DNS server that slaves all zones from the AD servers and have all UNIX/Linux/Apple clients query from this server. This would work except that A) I need two of them to keep redundancy and B) I've now added an extra layer of complication to resolve an application (Nagios)... not exactly good practice. Solution 4) is to set the timeout value of a host querying a DNS server. Perhaps adjust the client to timeout on the first listed nameserver after only 10 seconds, then try the next one? Since most Nagios tests have a minimum timeout value of 30 seconds, if the first DNS query timed out after 10 seconds, it would go to the next one with, hopefully, enough time to respond. The downside is having to adjust every single server. Has anyone else seen this? Anyone else using Windows AD servers to provide DNS for *nix servers? -- A.

Re: [Nagios-users] nagios upgrade
Is there any way you can clone your nagios box to a VM and test on the cloned box? I've just done that here testing for a planned 2.12 to 3.0.6 upgrade. You'll need to edit your nagios.cfg file to remove one obsolete option, and there are a few new options to merge in from the example nagios.cfg. I tested the worst-possible migration case - from self-compiled 2.12 to RPMForge-packaged 3.0.6 RPM. It was fun dealing with all the default directory changes, but not impossible. If you're compiling from source for both versions it should be a fairly painless migration. The side.html file is, as far as I remember, the same in both versions, so I think you can keep your old one and copy over the newly installed 3.0.6 version. My word, of course, is not gospel (and rarely is), so I'd advise you to test, test, and test again if you can. The directories which change depend on your config - a look at the paths specified in your nagios.cfg etc will point yopu in the right direction.

Re: [Nagios-users] Announce: Check_Yum for RedHat/CentOS serverpackagealerts
Oops, I realised after I said it. The only time I used yum on RHEL 4 was to upgrade it to CentOS 4. CentOS 4, of course, ships with yum. I've currently got 4 CentOS 4.6 boxes, 2 CentOS 5.1, and 1 RHEL 4 box, so python 2.3 support would still be a plus.

Now all we need is a version which works with python 2.3 so I can check our CentOS / RHEL 4 boxes. Cheers, Phil I have a couple of RHEL 4 boxes too but since they didn't ship with yum this didn't seem so relevant. I tried putting yum on one of them a couple of years back and I have to say it was an absolutely awful experience. I had done a relatively minimal install and was then tryied installing yum both by rpm and by source install, both of which landed me in a very bad and messed up circular dependency hell that I couldn't solve without breaking some other stuff. I mean I tried everything, and that was the last time I ever tried a minimal redhat installation (minimal == lower attack surface and all that best practice stuff which redhat never seemed to get into - otherwise I have to go round disabling so much junk on their systems), a very poor choice for tight control and maintainability compared to gentoo or debian (but I digress). Did you install yum manually on RHEL 4? Do you use this as the primary package management tool on RHEL 4 and does it receive security updates? I would have thought not since RedHat only shipped this in version 5 which is why the plugin makes no effort for previous versions of RHEL... but I could be wrong. I figure that upgrades to the version 5 with it's first half-decent package management system using yum by default will solve this, but if anyone wants to correct me or share their experience, feel free and I may reconsider. -h -- Hari Sekhon - This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.

Re: [Nagios-users] Check MS Terminal Services
pnsclient does work on Win2003 SP1 boxes, you just need to disable DEP for pnsclient.exe. NSClient++ (http://nscplus.medin.name/index.php/Main_Page) looks good and works for me for what I want to do (and saves me from having to have nrpe_nt installed as well). Clientless? Spend aeons figuring out how to use SNMP queries to get the info, bash your head against countless brick walls, give up, and install a client.

Jason Williard I would suggest nc_net instead. NSClient does not work with Windows 2003 SP1, nc_net does. Only downside (i guess) is that it needs the .NET redistributable on there.

RE: [Nagios-users] Best web front end
A quick look at the NagioSQL web page gives me little
confidence. No documentation or screenshots.
I've been playing with both Monarch and Fruity.
Both are (to me) Alpha quality, regardless of any RC monnikers the developers
attach to them.
I needed to patchboth to make them
usable:
Fruity: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detailaid=1457860group_id=136248atid=734752

Doesn't NagiosQL2005 dictate where you can install it and where nagios
should be installed ?
I
use /usr/local/nagios ... for my location but NagiosQL2005 seems to want to
force
a
certain directory structure which just would not work for me.
It
seems a little inflexible as there must be many nagios installs whereby
changing the structure
would just create far too much work just to get this working.
Does
anyone disagree here ?

I serve about 2500 services and

I use NagiosQL 2005

RE: [Nagios-users] NSCPlus (aka clearly im stupid)
There is a check_nt as part of the standard nagios plugins (http://nagiosplug.sourceforge.net/). The only difference between that and the check_nt which came with pnsclient.exe is the fileage checking (which isn't implemented yet in nsclient++ - or if it is it doesn't work). You can use NSClient++'s CheckFile via NRPE instead. Also the old nsclient used port 1248, nsclient++ defaults to 12489 (configurable in nsc.ini).

RE: [Nagios-users] NSCPlus (aka clearly im stupid)
Your use of the word server is way too confusing for my little brain. I'm monitoring windows servers from a linux server... Nuff said on that... So, on the Nagios box, you'll need both the nagios plugins (http://nagiosplug.sf.net) and NRPE (http://www.nagios.org/download/) installed. Use of the NSCPlus modules is documented at http://nscplus.medin.name/index.php/CheckCommands Basic familiarity with nagios commands and services should be enough to get you started, but also have a look at the NSCPlus Help forum over at http://sourceforge.net/forum/?group_id=131326.

I have just sat down and re-read the documentation for NSCPlus and the one line especially as NRPE plug-in is the one that does the actual execution. Would imply that I need to also install the NRPE plug-in as well (we're talking server-side here).
