Problems With Core Config

[dhughes]

I have a system that I have a list of processes and programs that I am monitoring. I wanted to add a new alert so I used Core Config Manager to set up the new process. It was a check_local_procs – it passed the test, so I saved it and applied it. It did not show up in the list of processes being monitored. I am very new to Nagios so I’m sort of fumbling around. But I did find under Reconfigure this Host – Monitor - the command that I built using Core Config. I tried the Update button, still without success. Can I get some guidance?

Go to the core config manager --> services. Search for the service in question. Is it listed as active and synced? Did you add a host to it?

Go to the CCM->Services->find your service, click on the "View Text Config" (the diskette icon) and show us the output.

No, it's not there and I did add a host to it.


I applied it again - it said it was succesfull - here is the output:

Things look okay - No serious problems were detected during the pre-flight check

Please re-create your host, and the check under it by following some of the guidelines here:

http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... gement.pdf

Once they are both created, apply configuration.

[dhughes]

Will do - I felt I'd need to do something like that.

[lmiltchev]

Sounds good! I will keep this thread open for a while, in case you have more questions.

[dhughes]

Thank you! I will be out tomorrow so I won't be working on this again until Wednesday.

[abrist]

Great, we will wait to hear from you then.

[dhughes]

Okay, I'm starting to feel a bit fooling here. In my zeal to get think right I deleted the host complelely. So, I guess I'm at a blank slate.

From here, would it be best to use the Solaris Monitoring Wizard and re-add the system and then follow the steps you have provided or should I set the system up in advance using http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... gement.pdf?
