Nagios Support Forum

Hi Everybody !!!!

Today we had a issue with a server, it was alerted from 2015-06-17 05:15:56 to 2015-06-17 05:16:54

In the message log of the monitoring server we have this:

Jun 14 05:15:50 XXXXXXXXXXX xinetd[2572]: EXIT: nrpe status=0 pid=33874 duration=0(sec)
Jun 14 05:15:51 XXXXXXXXXXX ReportAgent: ERROR: Failed to read ssl parameters.

Jun 14 05:16:39 XXXXXXXXXXX xinetd[2572]: START: nrpe pid=33926 from=::ffff:XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX

How can i understand this if the administrator reports that the server never was down ?

Thanks for your support !!!!

What was the issue with the server that Nagios reported? Did all NRPE checks stop working?

Thanks for your response !!!!

Your question:

"What was the issue with the server that Nagios reported? Did all NRPE checks stop working?"

No, the others NRPE checks was working good.

The issue reported was a "check-host-alive".

Is important share you that the alerted host has two network cards configurated, and that in the another one no errors was reported.

I do not think that the ssl error is related to check-host-alive, as check-host-alive is usually an icmp check (not usually performed through nrpe). Could the interface that was checked have gone down for a few minutes?

Hi !!!!

In the past days, we was checking the device, and the issue does not was present.

The administrator said that all was ok in the device.

If somethings occurs again, i will notify you.

Thanks for ypur help !!!!

No problem. Have a good one!
