Re: Where are scheduled report definitions stored?

Only one instance of nagios is running. I have stopped and restarted the services as requested. The report runs daily at 09:00 EDT so I won't know if the restart had any impact until tomorrow. The report is "www.domain.com Availability". When I open the PDF, it says I don't have permission...

Re: Where are scheduled report definitions stored?

Hello lmitchev, I only have one Nagios server. Yes, if I create a new scheduled report, it shows up in crontab -u apache -l. When I delete the new scheduled report in Nagios, it is removed from crontab. I don't see any useful clues in the cron.log file. cron.log mentions /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/repo...

Re: Where are scheduled report definitions stored?

Thank you lmiltchev! Unfortunately there is still a mystery! crontab -u apache -l returns 4 lines, the first starts with #, followed by 3 blank lines. #crontab for apache user blank blank blank So I went to /var/spool/cron and listed the files. Only "apache" was there. When I vi the file, ...

Where are scheduled report definitions stored?

I have a couple of scheduled reports that I cannot find where they are defined. In Nagios XI, the Reports -> Scheduled Reports folder is empty. I've logged in as Nagios admin and as the users who receive the report but none of them have scheduled reports defined! How can I find out which ID has the ...

Re: check_http -u doesn't work but URL does work on the serv

Thank you for the examples and your testing. I have worked more with the real URL involved and found that if I reduce the URL, then the check succeeds! For example: This fails check_http -u http://server.domain.com/c/s/e/default.aspx?f=value&c=us -f follow -s "search key string" but th...

check_http -u doesn't work but URL does work on the server

In Nagios XI, creating a service that calls check_xi_http_server which uses check_http Several tests use check_http -H <host> -u /some/path/page -s string_to_match -f follow and works fine. Nagios sends the URL \\<host> /some/path/page to the server (-H <host>) and returns the page. No problem here....

Re: Monitoring GB free on mapped Windows drive

So basically, just make the change I mentioned about NSClient and then depending on the plugin you are using for checking the drive, you should be easily able to make it show GB instead of % as most I have used have supported that. If you need me to recommend one, just let me know and I'll dig arou...

Re: Monitoring GB free on mapped Windows drive

I believe you can easily use NCPA for this purpose. You just need to change the units in the command (-u), for example: [root@testbox libexec]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ncpa.py -H x.x.x.x -t 'token' -P 5693 -M 'disk/logical/C:|/free' -u B OK: Free was 1.70535419904e+11Bb|'free_0'=1.705354199...

Monitoring GB free on mapped Windows drive

I've searched the library and forum every way that I can think of and still can't find a clear answer for how to monitor the free space (in GB, not %) on a Windows server. The drive is a mapped drive, not a local drive. The file system is really on a NAS but it is managed by our outsource "part...
