Getting errors after someone deleted some users

I'm very new to Nagios. I can't apply the configuration now. I get these errors. An error occurred while attempting to apply your configuration to Nagios Core. Monitoring engine configuration files have been rolled back to their last known good checkpoint. Error: Contact 'parekal' is not defined any...

Acknowledgements and Comments

This list obviously shows various engineers who have acknowledged various alarms. It used to list the most recent at the top. Whenever I open this list, it now only shows ack's from 2-1-2019 and older. I don't maybe I needed to sort by date or maybe something I'm doing wrong, but I just mass ack's a...

Custom flapping thresholds for select hosts/services

Good morning all, We've recently added switches into our nagios monitoring environment and are often getting alerts about flapping because network usage goes up and down as chunks of data are pulled or backups are run. This generates alot of flapping alerts. Where can we set custom thresholds for sp...

This is awesome! Any drawbacks compared to the NSClient agent?

Re: Many network interface detection via window snmp wizard

There should be a better way to do this. I had to do it the same way. Had to remote/powershell into 200 servers and read the names of the NICs we wanted to monitor.

It should also be part of the windows server monitor wizard.

Re: Creating a weekend or after hours config file

Would this mean I have to go into each host/service everytime and switch it to weekend everytime? I'd like to automate it.

SNMP Router/Switch wizard not working on one interface

Ran the network switch/router wizard against one of our servers and it errored and told me to run a command on our nagios server /usr/bin/cfgmaker --show-op-down --noreversedns --zero-speed '100000000' 'public@server.company.org:161::::2' After running the command I am getting the error below.

Re: 5.5 SSL certificate check issue

Scott I got it working well with the negate plugin. A different question remains for a different check; I'm trying to get rid of the text that says "Unauthorized". This is what I'm getting with the negate plugin. ./negate -w OK -s /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_http -H site.domain.com HTT...

How would you have automated this

We've got Nagios XI 5.4.13, we wanted to monitor all the plugged in ethernet ports on our servers for being up and the traffic bandwidth going through them. And have a historical record of it. We accomplished it by running the network switch/router wizard against our servers, which results in all ki...
