[Nagios-users] Q: problem with status.cgi

[John N. <jn...@uw...>]

Hi All,

Problem:
In nagios, links under Service Status Totals and Host Status Totals, when clicked on, result in a blank table for warning / unknown / critical.

Example: These links produce blank tables:
http://notsure/nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi?host=all&servicestatustypes=16&hoststatustypes=3
http://notsure/nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi?host=all&servicestatustypes=8&hoststatustypes=3
http://notsure/nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi?host=all&servicestatustypes=4&hoststatustypes=3

These links produce populated tables:
http://notsure/nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi?host=all&type=detail&servicestatustypes=16&hoststatustypes=12
http://notsure/nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi?host=all&type=detail&servicestatustypes=8&hoststatustypes=3&serviceprops=42
http://notsure/nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi?host=all&type=detail&servicestatustypes=4&hoststatustypes=3&serviceprops=42

Unfortunately, status.cgi is a binary, so I can't edit it to change the former to the latter in the code to make this work.

I am running nagios 3.5.0 on RHEL 6.4
nagios-3.5.0-1.el6.x86_64
nagios-common-3.5.0-1.el6.x86_64

There are no errors in the nagios or apache logs, it simply does not display the results.
Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

[Nagios-users] check_mq plugin is not working

[Prasanna R. <pra...@gm...>]

Hi.

 I have installed the Nagios V3.5 in Redhat V6.4. I am trying to integrate
the chec_mq plugin which was downloaded from below link to monitor the MQ
application and it seems to be not working. Could you please some one help
me to configure the check_mq.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios installation issue

[Daniel W. <dwi...@gm...>]

Unfortunately it looks like it would take quite a few changes from what I'm reading to get it to support both RHEL-based RPM's and LSB, so I'm almost inclined to say there should be a different init script for each unless someone wants to mangle the one to do both.  I'm not a fan of requiring that LSB be loaded on EL systems so I don't really want to fully switch the spec file over.  I don't think I have enough time right now to convert the script over and do all the testing (especially since I don't have a box setup for it), but if someone wants to write one and send it to me I can work on integrating it with the RPM/build.

Agreed, I figured if I could make the rpm do the right thing in each OS
that would be better. Within reason of course.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios installation issue

[FTL N. <ftl...@gm...>]

Start again and follow

http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/quickstart-ubuntu.html

Change the version numbers to whatever version you are installing obviously
as to whats wrote in that guide as its quite old.

Also you need to install "apt-get libssl-dev" before you install the plugins
or the 1.4.16 plugins will fail to install properly

Job done.

For debugging, you should run the exact same command as the nrpe daemon 
user (e.g. nagios) and look for the differences.

If you see different output, you can try it with the setuid (chmod u+s 
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk) and try it again. Maybe this 
helps.

[Nagios-users] check_disk output

[Daniel B. <dan...@gm...>]

Hi all!

I am observing the following output on one of my virtual machines:

atlantis:~# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 20% -c 10% -p / -p /drbd/
DISK OK - free space: / 796 MB (23% inode=69%); /drbd 9094 MB (94% inode=96%);| /=2575MB;2840;3195;0;3551 /drbd=482MB;8071;9080;0;10089


This is the configuration that I have in /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg:

command[check_disk]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 15% -c 10% -p / - /drbd


According to the output of the plugin, there is a 23% free, but still
it is returning a WARNING state, which would not be consistent.

This is the output of df, which is also 23% free for /:

atlantis:~# df -h

Inconsistency may have to do with the existence of symbolic links to

Thanks in advance for your reply.

[Nagios-users] check_openmanage and pdisk_cert blacklist question

[Russell K. <rka...@na...>]

I have been using the check_openmanage Nagios plugin for several years and
am very happy with the way it works. However, I do have a question about
one of the blacklist items, specifically the pdisk_cert item. This question
arose because I noticed a difference between the way check_openmanage
reports a non-Dell certified disk in the "Failure Predicted" condition,
depending on whether the disk is connected via an older PERC card (e.g.,
PERC 6/E) vs. a new PERC card (e.g., H810). I would like to get Trond's and
the community's opinion on how the pdisk_cert blacklist item should be
interpreted.

I am running check_openmanage version 3.7.11/Nagios 3.2.3/Dell OMSA
7.1.0/Ubuntu 12.04.

I have two PowerEdge 2950 servers each with their own MD1000. Each MD1000
has a mix of Dell-certified and non-certified disks. One server uses a PERC
6/E card to connect to its MD1000, while the other server uses a PERC H810
card to connect to its MD1000. I am using the same check_openmanage command
to check both servers:

$USER1$/check_openmanage -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -b pdisk_cert=all

On the server with the PERC 6/E card, I got the expected status when a disk
was in the "Failure Predicted" state:

Physical Disk 0:0:2 [Dell ST31000640SS, 1.0TB] on ctrl 1 is Online, Failure
Predicted

However, my other server, with the H810 card, also has a disk that Dell
OMSA is reporting as "Failure Predicted". Despite that problem I get an
"OK" message, using the same check_openmanage command:

OK - System: 'PowerEdge 2950 III', SN: 'XXXXXXX', 8 GB ram (4 dimms), 2
logical drives, 17 physical drives

If I run check_openmanage without the blacklist, I see the problem disk as:

Physical Disk 0:0:13 [Seagate ST31000640SS, 1.0TB] on ctrl 1 is Online,
Failure Predicted, Not Certified

So, it appears that the "pdisk_cert=all" blacklist is suppressing both
warnings about the disk, i.e., the fact that it is "Not Certified" as well
as the fact that it is also "Failure Predicted".

To get an idea of what I should expect the pdisk_cert blacklist to do, I
consulted both the check_openmanage web page(
http://folk.uio.no/trondham/software/check_openmanage.html) and the
check_openmanage man page. The check_openmanage web page says that the
pdisk_cert blacklist will "Ignore warnings for non-certified physical
drives". I guess one could interpret that as saying "Ignore *all* warnings
related to non-certified physical drives", which would include "Failure
Predicted", because that is a "Warning" condition. On the other hand, the
check_openmanage man page says that pdisk_cert blacklist will "Suppress
warning message  about non-certified physical disk." I would interpret the
meaning of that a little bit differently,
i.e., it will suppress *only* the warning about being non-certified, but
report other warnings, e.g., "Failure Predicted".

So, here is my question to the people in the Nagios community using
check_openmanage with pdisk_cert: Are you expecting that check_openmanage
will suppress *all* warnings about non-certified disks or that it will
suppress *only* the non-certified warning, but report other warnings, such
as "Failure Predicted"?

I welcome comments or corrections to my interpretation of the pdisk_cert
documentation/behavior. Thank you.

I apologize... I should have pasted that, but I thought the fact that I

problem would have implied that it functions as expected.  Yum is located

Re: [Nagios-users] Splunk Integration Question...

[Sean A. <sal...@ud...>]

>From what I can tell, after trying it, the query string appended to the
splunk_url parameter referneces Nagios specific things...

e.g.  https://*splunk_url*/?q=search?%20*hostname*%20*
Nagios_command_description

*
So, the implication is that somehow splunk has data about nagios checks, by
name.

For my environment, splunk uses short names.  We set this up to avoid
having a mix of both short names and fqdns in the host field since most of
our splunk data is sourced from syslog which doesn't provide fqdn.  Because
of this clicking the link for this in Nagios would result in splunk on the
FQDN and producing no results.

The other issue is that at this point, splunk has no data about nagios
checks, so searching the check name, also does nothing for us.  So I hope
you can see why I'm confused about the purpose of this integration.

Huh.   Where did those new options come from?  They weren't in the cgi.cfg docs the last time I looked :).

I agree, it's not terribly clear to me what that option does, but it does reference "Splunk IT" which is a special Splunk package that you can use for Splunk benchmarking.   That still doesn't make it clear what it's used for.

I see a second parameter, "splunk_url" that lets you specify the URL for your Splunk server.

Maybe it just somehow says to pepper the logs with your Splunk URL in appropriate places.

Can you describe what you're doing for Splunk integration with Nagios?   I've used Splunk with Nagios in a couple different ways, but I'm not aware of any single standard for doing so.

Originally, I just had Splunk run a scheduled search, which would trigger a script which sent a passive check result back to a Nagios service via NSCA.   That way - having Nagios process passive check results from Splunk - was the only way I could see to do that.

Recently, I played around a bit with writing scripts that made use of Splunk's REST API so the checks could be run as active checks from Nagios.  (I always prefer active checks).   I set this up for only one check, but once I got it working it worked pretty well.

As a side note, I'm still a little on the fence about whether or not I really want to have Nagios find problems through Splunk and then alert on them or have Splunk find an alert on them directly without using Nagios at all...
