Re: SiteMinder (SSO) in Nagios Core

I did a search at the Nagios Exchange site and didn't find any documentation on SiteMinder and Single Sign On. You can take a look there yourself and see if you can find some instructions that are similar to what you are looking to do. https://exchange.nagios.org/ I think these guys were on the rig...

SiteMinder (SSO) in Nagios Core

Is there any information on how to enable Nagios to work with CA SiteMinder? My internal SiteMinder SME is enabling it on the Apache HTTP Server (v2.4.26) that Nagios Core (v.4.3.2) is fronted with. However, any info on changes that need to be made to Nagios to understand that SM session that comes ...

Re: Best practice recommendation on Service reuse

Yes, these look like they would work perfectly. It would mean that I could reduce the # of services down to probably 1 for each type. I would need to define similar custom variables though for each host. I dont know if this is simply a different way of doing what I am already doing or a better way a...

Best practice recommendation on Service reuse

I have about 300 servers and Nagios Core 4.2.4 At one point I did have a small number of services, and utilized groups. The problem I ran in to is that a vast majority of these servers desire different thresholds. So having say 90% use of "/app" for Warning and 95% for Critical, doesnt app...

Re: Nagios notification_interval knowing previous state

I think what you're looking for are escalations (which occur after x times, so this would work for your idea.) This would allow you to specify a different notification command to run, which could be 'notify-host-by-email2' for example, and contain the extra data. See this link - https://assets.nagi...

Nagios notification_interval knowing previous state

Is there any functionality in Nagios Core so that when a service or host alarms, and notification goes out, that if that server/host stays in a Critical or Warning state, that when the notification_interval comes up again for notification, that it can know it was already in that state previously? Le...

Re: Nagiosgraph 1.5.2 not updating check-host-alive graph

I had the same issue, probably for as long as I can remember; but I never seemed to care/need that data till now. It turned out to be that I had decided (not sure how, been too long) not to originally include the "host_perfdata_file" settings in my nagios.cfg After that, restart, and it st...

Make services dependent upon Host availability?

I have many hosts which I check, but what happens a lot is that my Host will show offline (and I notify via SMTP email) and then all the services send out notification and say stuff like: Additional Info: UNKNOWN: Error occurred while running the plugin. Use the verbose flag for more details. How ca...

NCPA Reports Incorrect Disk Free Percent

If I run a "df -h" on my server I received: # df -h /app Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/vg_lun0-lvol0 250G 237G 0 100% /app That is 250GB total volume, with 237GB used and 0GB free, with 100% used. You and I know that for 100% it should be 250G/250G. 237G/250G is 94...
