...And before anyone asks why I can''t use the nagios_hostgroup type, if someone can tell me how I can collect members without having to manage the hostgroup members manually, that would be fantastic. There''s a servicegroups parameter for services, how has hostgroups been left out of nagios_hosts for so long?

Hi folks, For the first time since I started playing with puppet I started down the road of using exported resources This was inspired by my reading all of the nagios related recipes that went something along the lines of class nagios { package {nagios: ensure=> latest } service {nagios : ensure => running , enable => true} Nagios_host <<! !>>

Hi, Since the below is a little long, I put my question at the top: how do I troubleshoot awful exported resources performance in puppet and is there anything I can tweak to get it to run under 10 minutes in larger environments? I have a fairly modest environment (118 nodes, but prod will be at least twice as large). I''m trying to move my distributed nagios setup to one based on

I''m very interested in the way that puppet appears to be able to generate nagios configurations though I can''t seem to find any documenation on how it works: http://reductivelabs.com/trac/naginator is clearly a placeholder page... Meanwhile the various pieces of info at links such as: http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/TypeReference#nagios-host are just teasing me.

I am using stored configs to manage my nagios host and services checks and I have run into a problem that I have been unable to solve. When the stored configs are purged from puppet the nagios server correctly removes them from the services and hosts file but does not notify the nagios service and instead throws an error. So the entries are still there and nagios still reports on them until

I''ve tried to achieve my overall goals with several different features of Puppet, but I''ve hit a bit of a wall here. I think it''s time for me to explain what I''m trying to accomplish: I want the enabling of a service in my manifests to configure the monitoring of that service by a nagios server, without needless repetition. Let me explain how my

We were using Naginator resources like nagios_host, etc. along with stored configurations and exported resources. Worked pretty well. However we have to separate the Puppet master and the Icinga (Nagios) server. They will be on different machines from now on. Are there any best practices for such a scenario? I already thought about some kind of ''rsync'' of the configuration from

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I''me using nagios builtin types and I''m very surprised that the parameter *name* is not available for type nagios_host ?!? This parameter is required to use inheritance (http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/objectinheritance.html) and I don''t understand why it is not included in all nagios types ? Maybe someone has

Hi folks, I noticed an interesting problem with the nagios_* providers especially in Debian. Besides writing to the wrong file (I fixed that issue) I''ve noticed there is a umask issue where the config files end up being owned by root with perms 0640. This causes nagios to spit milk out of its nose because it cannot read the configuration files. I came up with a kludgey solution to the

Hi all, I''m working on setting up Puppet to write out my Nagios configs. A few weeks back I inserted a few dummy Nagios checks into my Puppet config, and the Nagios configs were written out properly. I''ve now added loads of Nagios host and service checks like this: @@nagios_service { "check_smtp_${hostname}": check_command =>

All- Poking around in the bug database it looks like storeconfigs is being actively worked on. I am using 2.7.6 on my master as well as all the clients. I have clients boot , start puppet and get a signed cert via auto signing. The nagios module (and currently the only thing puppet does) complains a lot during compile time about not having storeconfigs enabled, which is not the case in my
