Just to add that I have now enabled the “host_down_disable_service_checks” options, but I can still see service checks being run (and generating an alert) when the host is down. eg. 2022-08-15 00:56:29+01:00 HOST ALERT: host.example.com;DOWN;SOFT;1;UNKNOWN - Plugin timed out 2022-08-15 00:56:38+01:0...

Hi Is anyone able to explain why the following service notification was triggered: 2022-08-10 00:00:00+01:00 CURRENT HOST STATE: host.example.com;UP;HARD;1;OK: 10-08-2022 @ 08:55:13 AEST 2022-08-10 00:00:00+01:00 CURRENT SERVICE STATE: host.example.com;Samba;OK;HARD;1;OK: smb.service unit is active ...

Hi. I am in the process of migrating our monitoring from passive checks (using gearman / mod_gearman) to active checks (using check_by_ssh). All the checks / alerts / notifications for the passive checks are logged in nagios.log, but nothing is being logged for the active checks. Should anything be ...

Hi. I can see this issue being raised in various threads, but none appear to exactly match our situation and / or have an explanation / solution. On our system (Nagios Core 4.4.5 on CentOS 8), the host_notification_commands and service_notification_commands settings run a Nagios command that calls t...

It can be locked for now. Thanks.

Ah! Sorry, I thought you were referring the the clients. You're correct that we don't have an official repo for the server portion. I'm not aware of any plans to. We're working on support for XI on 8 at the moment. No time frame available, but we hope to have the modgearman components available aro...

I'll have to check with our devs regarding 1, but to answer your second question, NRDP is a protocol that NCPA(and other agents) are capable of using. Thanks for the responses. Apologies if I've misunderstood but, does your previous post not suggest that NRDP is a separately install-able component ...

I've just discovered the Nagios repository: https://repo.nagios.com/ (I didn't realise this exists, our Nagios installation is currently built from packages in the EPEL repository). I notice that the el7 repository (https://repo.nagios.com/nagios/7/) contains both gearmand and mod_gearman. It also c...

NCPA can certainly be used to run custom passive checks. I'm having a little trouble wrapping my head around the setup you've described, though. First, let's see if I'm understanding your setup correctly. Let's say you have a customer with 25 client machines and 1 machine checking the health of tho...

Hi. We use Nagios to monitor a few hundred systems that are deployed to customer sites. None of the sites have inbound access allowed and so we use mod_gearman (send_gearman) to run passive checks. I have a number of bespoke scripts that check various things and then call send_gearman supplying the ...
