Event Handler not getting executed

[Sampath.Basireddy]

I have recently configured event handler to execute a script to restart couple of IIS Application Pools and Reset IIS.

This is on Windows Servers.

Are there any additional steps required when we have Gearman Pollers ?

Thank You.

How does the event handler access the Windows Servers? The gearman pollers would also need the same access anf they would need the event handler script that is being executed on them as well as any dependencies it needs.

The script is residing locally on the windows server. I have a command in which the script is called and that command is selected in the Event Handler..

Code: Select all

$USER1$/check_ncpa.py -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -t token -M 'plugins/script.ps1'

Then as long as you have check_ncpa.py on the workers and they can access NCPA you should be good.

With what permissions does nagios execute the script which is used in the event handler on Windows Server?

[scottwilkerson]

By default the NCPA services on windows run as SYSTEM but you could modify these by changing the setting in the services in Windows.

Just note the services will require a certain level of access to perform normal monitoring.
