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

So, my favorite RPM repository (EPEL) only has the ancient nagios-2.12 or so. What's the repo you use for Nagios 3? -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/

Hi I would like to contribute to the wiki.centos.org: username: boel subject: nagios incompatibility with centos 5.2 location: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Nagios content: A security feature of centos 5.2 SELinux prevents the access from the apache httpd server to the needed /var/nagios files. The error manifests itself in the /var/log/messages as "SELinux is preventing the tac.cgi from

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

When executing the following command : [root at nagios ~]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H ip_address -c check_asterisk_peers I get the following output : NRPE: Unable to read output Somewhere Nagios does not have enough rights to question Asterisk about the sip peers. These are the rights of the check_nrpe on the Nagios Server : [root at nagios ~]# ls -l

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

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

On CentOS, I am trying to "yum install nagios" (after adding the rpmforge repository), but every time I run it, I get this message, and am not sure quite what to do. [root at nagios-server ~]# yum install nagios Setting up Install Process Setting up repositories Reading repository metadata in from local files Parsing package install arguments Resolving Dependencies --> Populating

Thanks for your reply Actually the case is that the compiling process and make all, make install processes didn't report any errors but when I trying to access or start the service Nagios it gives me an error stating it's unable to find that service. This happens with me when I try to manually install the applications from source. Am I missing any important step in the installation

Hi, I'm running an Opteron 64 bit server, and in an effort to re-join it to my nagios monitoring, I have tried the install nagios via Yum.

In wanting to add the DAG repository to my machine, the documentation i've come across seems vague. Can someone advise me on either of

-----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

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

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Ralph. I'm almost done verifying and updating the Nagios guide works with both CentOS 4.x and 5. Currently, the page is labeled "Nagios on CentOS 4.x." I wanted to make sure the title reflects. The new guide will work for both 4.x and 5 together, so would it be a problem to rename that page to "Nagios on CentOS 4.x/5.x"
