Is it possible to configure Nagios core as NRDP server

Post by vusaravi »

Hi

I would like to configure Nagios core as NRDP server as part of Distributed monitoring setup.

As part of the installation, need to proceed with the Unconfigured Objects section as per the installation guide https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... h-NRDP.pdf.

Unconfigured Objects
Once the central Nagios XI server receives the check results from the distributed Nagios servers they need to
be added to the Nagios XI configurations so they appear in the interface. Navigate to Admin > Monitoring
Config > Unconfigured Objects.

But, Unconfigured Objects section is not available in Nagios core, is it possible to add this section in Nagios core or is there any third party plugin available to achive the same?

Thanks in Advance.

Best Regards,
Ravi Kumar.

The Unconfigured Objects functionality is only available in Nagios XI, there are no alternatives that I'm aware of, and it is only used to add objects to XI that aren't found when a passive result doesn't match a host/service in the system.

Nagios Core can act as an NRDP server but there is not automated scanning for unconfigured objects in Core, only in XI.

You'd likely need to write your own tool to parse the logs looking for these lines in your nagios.log file:

Code: Select all

Error: Got host checkresult for 'XXXXXXXXX', but no such host can be found
Error: Got check result for service 'XXXXXXXXX' on host 'XXXXXXXXX'. Unable to find service
