You end goal is to have 24x7 checking but only durring work hours notifications correct? No, this is being run in Amazon's EC2 and there very cost conscious right now until they get more clients. So I have (2) webservers, (2) API servers each behind a load balancer, and each are pretty costly. So w...

Does public v4 mean you are on core 4 of some version or another? Sorry, I just meant I was using the public, stable version. As for the service/host issue, I understand it a bit more and was able to do some more testing and have a test service. I didn't notice there is a template for the service a...

I have a few servers in a load balanced environment (ec2) and to save a bit I wish to stop the servers nightly. I am having some issues and trying to understand the hierarchy and looking for the best way to do this. For this example I will just use 1 set and once working can easily roll it out but I...

Not bulk if I remember. It's a small network of only 5 or so servers, and I only want to graph server load, maybe disk/I which I had done years ago using pnp, version 3 of nagios. Server setup looks like; define service{ use generic-service,srv-pnp hostgroup_name remote service_description Server Lo...

Can you share these two files?: CODE: SELECT ALL /usr/local/nagios/etc/pnp/process_perfdata.cfg /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg There is no /usr/local/nagios/etc/pnp folder. The install put that under /usr/local/pnp4nagios (not sure if that is why), but I will include the /usr/local/pnp4nagios/etc...

Thanks, the output of the perfdata.log file shows the following when I run the process_perf.pl from the cli; 2014-05-16 20:02:15 [20549] [2] Default Timeout: 15 secs. 2014-05-16 20:02:15 [20549] [2] Config Timeout: 15 secs. 2014-05-16 20:02:15 [20549] [2] Actual Timeout: 15 secs. 2014-05-16 20:02:15...

I guess my first question is whether or not NPCD is running: service npcd status Odd I never saw that going through the doc's, but it wasn't; service npcd status npcd is not running /etc/init.d/npcd start Starting npcd: done. So, that process is running, but nothing in the perfdata. I compared it t...

Hey all, been a happy N3 user forever and doing some consulting and migrating a whole data center over to amazon. So I am using a stock Ubuntu 14.04LTS install, have have the latest 4.06 nagios compiled, working and reporting nicely along with 2 test remote servers via NRPE. My version 3 I used pnp4...

ugh, I saw them, didn't put 2 and 2 together when it was looking for the host! /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ntp_time -H ntp.ubuntu.com -w .5 -c 10 NTP OK: Offset 0.007176041603 secs|offset=0.007176s;60.000000;240.000000; Worked like a charm, thanks for the quick reply, hate when I ask questions lik...

Afternoon all. Slowing adding servers and checks, and ran into a check I am not sure how to handle. As the subject states, I am using NRPE and checking a lot of things, but want to make sure time on the servers never drifts past x seconds. There are some out there that do it via SSH, the issue I hav...
