similar to: Nagios hostgroup collation

I''m trying to generate (and manage) nagios configuration based on what classes have been included by nodes. I''ve seen the example at http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/exported_resources.html, and I''m doing that now. However, it has some problems: - puppet runs are very slow on the nagios node - when I want to change the service configuration in nagios, I have to wait

I am trying to create a hostgroup using the Foreman API (foreman-0.4-0.1rc1.noarch): Using perl v.5.14.2, REST::Client et. al., ending up with sending: POST /hostgroups {"name":"api-created-

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

I am trying to supplement and ultimately provide a patch for ''foreman'' which is an adjunct to puppet. Essentially, there is a Hosts class which belongs_to Hostgroup and Hostgroup class has a column called ''ancestry'' which is actually a Hostgroup (probably what is referred to as STI but I am not sure) and thus within Foreman, nesting Hostgroups is not uncommon.

Hi List, I have noted a number of times, various comments on this list about Nagios, hence my questions. just been employed by an ISP and they want to upgrade their fairly extensive nagios monitoring. They are mostly an ubuntu lts shop, so 1st question What advantages does the RH/CentOS world have (if any?) over the ubuntu LTS world? They are talking about running the server on a vm, as I

Hi, I''m having a problem with extlookup not respecting the ''certname'' parameter[1].  When executing a puppet run with either the --certname or --fqdn parameters, it ends up using the specified SSL certificate and gets the correct node definition applied from the puppetmaster.  However, it still retrieves extlookup data using the node''s actual FQDN, not the one

Hi, so I''m trying to use the built in nagios_host type and there appears to be one huge glaring hole - the lack of a hostgroups parameter. 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

Hi all . i am running puppet version 2.6.16 and foreman Version 0.4.2 . my question is as follows . i would like to know if there is a way to tag server with a group tagging . for example . let say i am running apache with a unique configuration and network architecture and want to tag in with "tag1" and a i have few more apache installation with the a new unique configuration and

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

Hi All, I currently make use of Icinga (nagios fork) + Puppet for fully automated monitoring. It''s worked great up to this point. I''ve recently been asked to integrate fine grained notifications support into icinga. I''m not entirely sure puppet manifests are the right place to manage contacts, contact groups, and their use within host and service definitions for

Anyone figured out how to get rails/fastcgi to run on Resin. I assume it would be similar to PHP, which there are directions here: http://www.caucho.com/resin-3.0/thirdparty/php.xtp One thing that confuses me is that it wants a server address: <server-address>localhost:8002</server-address> Apparently you start the php process, like this: php -b 8002 And then the PHP process

Running puppet 2.6.11 opensource on Red Hat 5.6 client. I cannot explain this logically but I have a directory structure like so: /etc/puppet/manifests/hiera/hostgroups/ with directories for each of my application areas like so: *clickz core devel dns icross iswap itch puppet test ubuntu* *What is weird is that if I put anything under the directory named "core", the ext

Anybody use Resin''s (http://www.caucho.com) FastCGI support with Rails? I''m seeing performance very close (almost the same) to what I''m seeing with Lighttpd. Nothing scientific but just a quick test using Apache''s wb and JMeter. (Might be interesting to other Java/Rails folk or Java/PHP/Rails folk. I have no connection to Caucho and the tests were done with

I am using puppet 2.6.11 and want to pass parameter for implementing sudo for mulitple users. So here is my simple code, which I would like to pass to hiera to specify user name lookup. Appreciate any help, thanks in advance. class sudo( $name) { #Class:: sudo # # package { "sudo": ensure => present, } file { "/etc/sudoers": owner => root, group => root,

Hi all, For months now I''ve been using Puppet with PuppetDB backend to manage my Nagios configs. We now have 1200+ services being checked and including servicedependency, host, hostdependency, command and other Nagios resources being managed, that''s about 3000 resources in total. Unfortunately this means the monitoring server takes about 8 minutes to perform a Puppet run.

I'm fitting data from a mixture experiment, and I'd like to present the results in a ternary graph with contours. I found this code by Walmes Zeviani http://n4.nabble.com/Triangular-filled-contour-plot-td1557386.html which is just what I want--except I would like the axis titles and labels to be proportionately larger than the ternary graph itself, for legibility in publication. When I

hi everyone, i''m trying to roll out an .exe file for the puppet package provider "windows". my manifest looks like this: $package_source = "http://puppet.local.domain/base_check_mk/windows/check-mk-agent-1.2.3i1.exe" $package_name = "Check_MK Agent 1.2.3i1" package { "$package_name": ensure => installed, provider =>

Hi all, I am working on a filled contour plot which shows a triangular matrix data set (as shown below). Is there a possibilty to draw a triangular filled contour in a equilateral triangle (like a ternary plot)?

Hi, I am seeing some very dodgy behavior from samba where the files times displayed to the client seem to have no basis in reality. In the example below The file was created on Oct. 5th but samba is saying the file time was way back on Sep. 30th.
