Re: check_snmp and junk perfdata

Just switched to this buried gem instead: check_snmp_oid http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Plugins/Network-Protocols/SNMP/check_snmp_oid/details Had to tweak a couple things to make it work properly in my environment, but otherwise - no more junk perfdata. Highly recommended if you have the same ...

check_snmp and junk perfdata

I've fallen in love with and been disappointed by check_snmp on the same day. Someone please know the answer! So I've found that if I query a SNMP value that is an INTEGER, everything looks good: root@nagios:~/workspace# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp -H 10.1.11.184 -C nagios -o ifMtu.1 -v -l ...

Re: How to not require acknowledgments for certain services

I have to be honest that I don't fully understand event handlers. Is there an article or document you could point me to that could assist with an auto-acknowledge handler?

Re: How to not require acknowledgments for certain services

Well as I mentioned above NRPE has an "AlwaysOK" script will then fire off any other check you want, but they will always be "OK" regardless of warning or critical. While this would give me a pretty, all-green view, it's not exactly what I'm looking for. I want to see the yellows...

Re: NSClient Reporting Twice the Memory in a Windows Machine

Just wanted to second this that I had the same issue and yes it's because the Windows "NSClient" basic memory check includes physical plus paged. Was an awesome surprise when we had a SQL server technically out of memory but I thought it was running just fine at 50%. You'll need to switch ...

How to not require acknowledgments for certain services

We have a handful of servers that constantly run at a high memory used % throughout the day and then fall below warning thresholds in the evening. Everything is operating as expected and doesn't need to be fixed. The nuisance is that we want to monitor, track, and trend memory usage but we don't nee...

Re: Exchange server "Core and Blacklist"

Well - my last message hasn't appeared yet because of this moderation system... but I just found the fix! (and I know so little about Linux)

Ran this:

Code: Select all

yum install perl-Net-DNS.x86_64
And now the command works!

For the pre-build VM I had to run this:

Code: Select all

yum install perl-Net-DNS.i686

Re: Exchange server "Core and Blacklist"

I wanted to chime in that the blacklist not working doesn't have anything to do with smarthosts, the function itself is broken. I've used the pre-built virtual machine and built Nagios XI from scratch and it exists in both instances. The Exchange Wizard introduces a command called "check_bl&quo...
