  • check_ifoperstatus.pl - -n option doesn't work, with fix

    I wanted to use the -n option to check_ifoperstatus, but it wasn't working. The -n / --name option declarations set the $ifName variable, but the test around line 153 checks $name instead of $ifName, so the names are never compared. In the paragraph starting with the "Check to see if ifName match", change $name to $ifName in the 3 places it is used. thanks - cheers! John who's...

  • service group names can't be substrings of each other

    If you have two service groups, and one's name is a substring of the other, any host in the longer is treated as if it is also in the shorter. For example, if you have service group called "Windows" and one called "Windows Mail", you'll have problems. The reason is, that in nagios_write.cgi, line 509, the comparison is where service_group RLIKE servicegroup_name presumably to get...

  • check_snmp - don't read MIBS if not needed

    One of the slowdowns in check_snmp is when snmpget reads all the MIB files. But it occurred to me today that if you call check_snmp with an OID (instead of an SNMP variable name), then we don't need to read any MIB files at all. Here's a patch. Thanks! John jsellens@syonex.com.

  • diskio / getdevs memory leak w/fix

    I upgraded to net-snmp 5.2 on 3 freebsd machines (4.6 and 4.10) and noticed the agent growing in memory use. Through configure experiments, I tracked it down to the ucd-snmp/diskio mib-module. I compiled in dmalloc, ran it under gdb for 1 day, and looked at the "not freed" information from the dmalloc log. 18,000+ 1444 byte pieces from ra=0x28365fba. A gdb breakpoint showed...

  • check_http needs an option to allow regex to span newlines

    I want to check a web page that has a number of status entries for various servers - I'd like to check a regular expression that contains all those servers, but they are on multiple lines. check_http.c sets REG_NEWLINE which means that regular expressions may not span newlines. This means that, in my case, I must check the web page multiple times. Here is a patch that adds an...
