Hi I am using Nagios since 2004 with all the configuration in the text files. Now, Id like using mysql DB. I do not need a migration procedure, I just need to understand how to configure a Nagios to start with mysql DB.

Re: [Nagios-users] nagios with mysql
Myst use NagioSQL and it will import tour magios files into a MySQL DB. Moreover, it will give you a web interface to configura Nagios. NagioSQL will be the backend for the upcoming Nagios official configuration tool.

Re: [Nagios-users] nagios with mysql
Hi, it seems a bit beyond his needs :-) Then, from your words it seems that in Opsview you attached a CMDB to Nagios. Is it so? Could be interesting, lots.

Hi Mark, Allways use the list for your questions. - Mark Weaver mwea...@compinfosystems.com escreveu: Now the nagios configuration exists both on disk in the flat files and within the database that was created. Which then does nagios respond to when new hosts are created and put into play? The ones in the database or the ones on disk or both? Nagios remains under plain configuration files. The opcfg is a configuration utility. On the first installation, you must run an import, thus all original configuration files are imported to mysql database. From this time you must use opcfg to make your new configurations, so you can enjoy a bunch of features. After you proceed with your new configuration using opcfg, you run an export at opcfg interface, so the plain files are updated with new mysql configuration and nagios process is restarted.

2009/3/25 Mark Weaver mwea...@compinfosystems.com: Hi List, I was wondering if anyone has connected their standard Nagios installation up to a MySQL backend? Yes, NDOUtils. I'm looking at this from a purely disaster recovery aspect. It's easy enough to backup the configuration, but the data is another matter. Why? In a standard configuration, the data is a bunch of files which can be backed-up using tar or whatever your favourite backup utility is. My current Nagios installation is version 3 installed on a CentOS 4.7 server. The installation was done via Yum from the rpmforge repo. Much cleaner install than compiling the tarballs and much easier to manage. Yes, I could archive all the installation paths, but because they were installed via the RPM method things are spread out all over the file system. If you had installed from source tarball, then most of your Nagios install would be under /usr/local/nagios/ . It would be real nice if I had all the data contained within a MySQL backend. That way if I had to restore should my Nag server die or suffer some horrible fate it could be a matter of reinstalling the packages, restoring the /etc/nagios directory where all the configs live, restore the database and I'm off again. The install from tarball isn't so onerous, and you'll find that Nagios then isn't spread all over the place but is mostly found under /usr/loca/nagios/ . I've looked at a few suggested Nagios front ends including Centreon and they turned out to be bad experiences. Mostly due to the fact that being a Nagios noobie I didn't know what the hell the front was doing. I'm sorry Mark, but installing from repositories using yum is pretty much the same. If you want to see how things work and have a truly standard install, you need to install Nagios from the source tarballs. Believe me, I started off installing Nagios using yum on Fedora a while back and soon got bitten on the bum when I found the repository had Nagios compiled with embedded perl enabled but the plugins I was using wouldn't work with that. In a truly standard Nagios install (if there is such a thing), the configs are under /usr/local/nagios/etc not /etc/nagios . These things become important when you start looking at installing some of the really neat addons for Nagios like pnp4nagios graphing, NExSM status map, NagVis dashboards and so on. -- ___ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null

If I use NDOUtils, will I still be able to configure Nagios in files (/etc/nagios/*.cfg files) or I will have to write all the configuration directly in the MySQL db? You will still need to use cfg files. Nagios is not capable of reading config files from DB. If that's what you're looking for, there are addons (differing for different versions of nagios) that allow you to manage configs in a DB then output them in a format that nagios understands. http://www.nagiosexchange.org should help you locate them. -- Marc -- ___ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null

But now I am getting below error message

How can I resolve this problem? Which version of Mysql should I use?

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios-db mysql module not working UPDATE
hi,
here is a patch to the current CVS revision of nagios-db for postgres.
This patch does:
* correct a bug on startup concerning neb_register_callback command change
* add some logging messages to help debugging
* correct a small typo in handling options (see offset bugs in option parsing
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=12557459 )
* modified neb initialisation so that 'processStart' is called when Nagios starts and not when we have a NEBCALLBACK_TIMED_EVENT_DATA . The problem was that processStart() was called berfore the nagios configuration was loaded and therefor processStart() did not have configuration data available.
File is available here: http://www.barbich.net/websvn/wsvn/nagios/nagios/patches/nagios-db/inserter.c.patch?op=filerev=0sc=0
Good luck.

nebmods.c it should be expecting 4:int neb_register_callback(int callback_type, void *mod_handle, int priority, int (*callback_func)(int,void *)){So I changed inserter.c accordingly: neb_register_callback(NEBCALLBACK_TIMED_EVENT_DATA,loadconfig, 0, loadconfig);
neb_register_callback(NEBCALLBACK_HOST_STATUS_DATA,processStatus, 0, processStatus); neb_register_callback(NEBCALLBACK_SERVICE_STATUS_DATA,processStatus, 0, processStatus); neb_register_callback(NEBCALLBACK_HOST_CHECK_DATA,processCheck, 0, processCheck);
neb_register_callback(NEBCALLBACK_SERVICE_CHECK_DATA,processCheck, 0, processCheck);In all honesty, I have no idea if this change is correct. It *looks* right, but I am obviously not sure. Any help would be appreaciated.

Betreff: [Nagios-users] Nagios-db mysql module not workingHi All!I have Nagios 2.0b5, nagios-db 0.91 and MySQL 4.1.15, including MySQL-MAX 4.1.15. When Nagios starts I see the module is loaded(nagios-db: inserter locked into db) and the appropriate message when nagios shuts down. However, nothing is getting loaded into the database, and I do not see any error messages in /var/log/messages.
I have changed inserted.c to reflect the user/password of the database(nagios/nagios) and I can log inusing the mysql command and insert data directly into the tables. I have also tried changing the values (i.e
.nagios2/nagios) in the nebmodule_init function and it reports the errornagios-db: inserter failed to connect to db. This convinces be that at least I am connecting to the database and the username/password are correct.
The nagios.cfg has this:event_broker_options=-1broker_module=/opt/INSTALL/nagios-db-0.91/neb/mysql/inserter.oAnd the path is correct.Near the top of the loadconfig function I added this:
write_to_logs_and_console(Inside ofloadconfig,NSLOG_INFO_MESSAGE,TRUE);As well as in a couple of other places.My assumption is that it should write an entry to /var/log/messages when this function is called. Perhaps the function is being called, but this line is not writing to where I expect. It seems that other than the init/deinit functions, nothing else is getting called.
I loaded another NEB module that has this:snprintf(temp_buffer,sizeof(temp_buffer)-1,EVENT: %d MESSAGE:%s,event_type,tmp_service-plugin_output);write_to_all_logs(temp_buffer,NSLOG_INFO_MESSAGE);
These messages are getting writting to the /var/log/messages.I am at a loss as to where to look next. Any help is greatly appreaciated.Regards,Jim Mohr---

[Nagios-users] nagios and MySQL
I downloaded the nagios-db plugin for nagios-2. But there's no install instructions ! I can create the database but unsure of how to install the event processing routines. Is there install instruction or a howto ?? CraigW --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the JBoss Inc. Get Certified Today Register for a JBoss Training Course.
