Nagios Support Forum

Hi @gwesterman That was a pretty good idea! The "Run Check Command" failed in the GUI and also at the command prompt. It took a minute but I found out why .....My snmp community string ends with an exclamation mark (!) which is missing in the command. Next I have removed it from one device...

Hi Cory, Yes, I considered them, but dismissed them quickly. The configuration wizzard (where I entered the community string) discovered all the interfaces, and the bandwidth is being graphed perfectly for the interfaces. It's just the status that's giving the "WARNING: SNMP error: No response ...

Hi, Since the keep announcing in Nagios Core, I decided to try Nagios XI (Nagios XI 2024R1.3.2) My main objective is network monitoring, and there I ran directly into problems. On all network devices, wile bandwidth is nicely monitored and graphed, the port status for each port on each device is in ...

Well, I re-used an test server I had, and found it's still a bit off. * Stop nagios process * Delete all status files in var folder * Copied cfg files with parent/child config * Started LAB devices * 5 min. later started nagios * 10 min. later all shows OK/green * 15 min later shutdown lab devices F...

I will try to reproduce it later, but I THINK the sequence was: * Added all hosts (two from two subnets; production and lab) * Turned off the lab network * Defined Parent/child relati...

Thank you, much appreciated

Hi, Thnx, I already had "host_down_disable_service_checks=1" but the child isn't down so that has no impact. I also tried "service_check_timeout_state=u" but no change there either. Those where the options i've seen and considered to have an impact (but did not). Is there a speci...

Hi! I have nagios core running, and defined parent relations. The relations work okay, when a parent goes down, the child hosts become unreachable. The services on those however become critical. That sounds a bit wrong. I'd guess they should either change to undetermined, retain the last know state,...

Hi,
The quick search works fine for hosts, but it would be helpfull if it would work on services too. t.ex. fins all ssh or webservices.
Is there a way to (quick)search services?

Well, ended up building a test machine from scratch. The "!" stops functioning when
reset to zero and off we go
