Nagios Support Forum

Nagios Support, I have created a custom plugin to gather CPU status from a Linux server via a Check_by_SSH as described in the nagios docs (Nagios Plugin Development Guidelines). I uploaded this plugin, configured a service check (with the Process perf data option set to "on") and its runn...

Looks like it was the /etc/php.ini memory_limit I set it to = 536870912 and restarted nagios now the Web UI is up. I'm trying to apply config now.. Thanks for your help

My system had a crash in the middle of a bulk load config apply. My admin rebooted the server and now the Nagios XI GUI will not stat can get into the admin screen to report from last known good backup. I rand the DB repair script from the command line with no errors but nagios web interface is stil...

Were can I find a document that describes the Strap sender behavior. (example; Does the trap sender pay attention to the Alert setting for both Host and Services other then down time?)

Is there a way to view a dashboard via a link, that I created in Nagios XI without authentication into XI?

Thanks again for timely support... Looking for some help on sizing the XI server properly. If we plan to monitor 5000 Unix servers (various flavors) with Check_by_ssh. We think we will do about 20 checks per server every 5 minutes. What would be the recomendation on the size of the XI server runing ...

Thanks for all the help thus far. I was able to create a plugin to do what we need. The last part of this POC is to configure Nagios to send a SNMP TRAP to our SNMP management server. I'm still looking but have not yet found documentation on how to set this up. Can you point me in the right direction?

OK so once I create this check_by_sshpass.sh what path on the XI server do I put it in. and how in the XI UI do I tell it to use this on the ssh monitor setups instead of its normail check_by_ssh?

We will require account with our own naming convention and not use the shared key. IF you have a white paper on how to create the sshpass plug in. I can try that before I get your gut to help us.. Thanks again.

I'm looking at the check_by_SSH monitor for monitoring 2000+ Unix / Linux servers. A mixture of AIX, SUN and Redhat. Since we are a retailer and du to the whole Target mess setup of Pre- shared keys is now off the table. I would like to use Nagios with XI to monitor and want a agentless implementati...
