similar to: Managing dynamic instances with puppet

Hi all, I''m using the opsview module and the Opsviewmonitored type and it''s working just fine, I''m now trying to purge unused hosts from the Opsview monitoring (I have several hosts that dynamically go up and down). The problem is that it seems like the destroy function for opsview was not really implemented and therefore I can''t really delete hosts from

Hi, For several years, we have @work had a puppet environment where when we add a new host/node, some basic monitoring is fed through to a nagios server using virtual resources and an old nagios class which either someone here wrote themselves, or found on the internet at the time. We are trying to move away from the existing puppet environment for a number of reasons, and using this as an

Hi, We''re using thin stored configs heavily to manage things like Munin and Nagios and we''re currently wondering what to do when nodes go away, or change considerably. If we get rid of a server then all it''s stored config is still present in the database, as well as it''s nagios and munin configurations. We created a script that iterates through the database

So I have the following: define nagios::service ( $nagios_template = ''service-template'', $host_name = $fqdn, $service_groups = '''', $contact_groups = $default_contact_group, $max_check_attempts = 3, $dependency = false, $dependent_host = $fqdn, $dependent_service = '''', $check_command = '''' ) {

Hello CentOS users, I have problems posting the question below to the Nagios mailing list (my subscription is not accepted for some reason). Has anybody of you already had this probably frequent problem with Nagios in CentOS?

Hi Steve Thanks for all your help, i followed your answers and found on that nagios was being run as user nagios....and if i executed the last command it asked for a password [i tried nagios password,root password etc] but it did not work..it the end i opened nagios.cfg and changed the NAGIOS_USER to root and changed the ownership permissons on the script also to root..I now get the correct

Folks: I''ve started to play around with the comprehensive integrated module set from example42 (http://www.example42.com/). Following the instructions, I set up one node as a nagios server, with ''include nagios''. I set up another node to be monitored via nagios, with ''include nagios::target". I set $monitor=true for the base node, which is inherited by

Hi, I have a file resource that brings files in the diretory "/usr/local/nagios/libexec" from source1 and I have a second resource file that should bring file in that same directory but from an other source. But the result is that only the files from file { "/usr/local/nagios/libexec": do exit in the directory. I tried remote and true. The resource file {

Hello List, We are using puppet to manage a growing number of Debian Etch based servers (currently 70). Since upgrading to 0.22.4 we encountered a problem when services do not restarted on puppets request. For example the Nagios remote plugin executor daemon (nrpe). It''s running daemonized and its confiugration is located in /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg. This file is managed through puppet

I''m sure people have hit this problem before. In my nagios module, the nagios command pipe file at /var/lib/nagios3/rw/nagios.cmd is owned by the nagios user, but needs to be written to by the www-data user. Adding the www-user to the nagios group is one solution, but that requires that the nagios module potentially modify the www-data user, which seems bad. What''s the best way

Hello, Has anyone managed a successful installation of Nagios using the RPMForge packages on CentOS 5.5? It looks like it should have worked, I followed the guides for Fedora and CentOS here (with appropriate path adjustments): http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/quickstart-fedora.html http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Nagios The SELinux policies look fine (I tend to ignore instructions to

I''m seeing a recurring, nightly copy of files which are not changing. I get the following message every night from tagmail. 1. It happens once per day (not every 30 minutes) 2. The files haven''t changed in months 3. The files aren''t changing -- there''s only one md5 in the clientbucket for each file 4. There''s no schedule on the resource 5. The files

Hi, I''m new to Puppet so may be going about this completely the wrong way, or perhaps it is an selinux problem rather than a Puppet problem. I have a problem copying a file and changing the seltype. I don''t think it is Nagios specific. Code is something like: file { ''/usr/sbin/nrpe'': source =>

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

Hello List, i''m running into an issue with puppet where I don''t know how to solve correctly. We''re managing applications and our monitoring (nagios) using puppet using the following schema: class nagios { // ensure nrpe ist installed // export a host definition nagios::check { ''ping'': } nagios::check { ''load'': } ...
