It just seems all backwards. Well, I'm much more a user than developer (although I did finally write my own Solaris Disksuite plugin out of frustration), and as many times as I thought about the reason for the min:max vs. max:min behavior, I never could come up with a plausible reason for doing it this particular way that seemed "obvious". About the only reasonable explanation I ever did come up with, and it's still pretty far-fetched, was that for a majority of SNMP OIDs that can be queried, the "OK" or "normal" condition is usually one result, while the "error" condition has many results, giving more detail about the error. So I just guessed that it made more sense to specify the "OK" results, rather than a much larger range of "not OK" results. Like I said - far-fetched, but it's really all I could come up with. -- James Noyes (jnoyes-nagios@retrogeeks.com) --__--__-- Message: 3 From: "Marco Borsani" <m.borsani@it.net> To: "'Bill Jacqmein'" <wrjacqmein@gmail.com> Cc: "'NAGIOS'" <nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Subject: R: [Nagios-users] Check_ntp Date: Thu, 23 Mar 2006 10:02:27 +0100 Organization: ITnet I also tested plugins 1.4.2, but I received same error message Marco -}-----Messaggio originale----- -}Da: Bill Jacqmein [<A HREF="mailto:wrjacqmein@gmail.com">mailto:wrjacqmein@gmail.com</A>]=20 -}Inviato: mercoled=EC 22 marzo 2006 17.34 -}A: Marco Borsani -}Cc: NAGIOS -}Oggetto: Re: [Nagios-users] Check_ntp -} -}upgrade to the latest version of the plugins at=20 -}<A HREF="http://nagiosplug.sourceforge.net/" TARGET="_blank">http://nagiosplug.sourceforge.net/</A> -}barring that -}check that utils.pm is in the libexec directory. -} -} -}On 3/22/06, Marco Borsani <m.borsani@it.net> wrote: -}> Hi all ! -}> -}> I'd to use check_ntp, but when I "try" to running it , I obtain: -}> # ./check_ntp -}> "use" not allowed in expression at ./check_ntp line 66, at=20 -}end of line=20 -}> syntax error at ./check_ntp line 66, near "libexec use utils " -}> Execution of ./check_ntp aborted due to compilation errors. -}> -}> I don't know perl :-( -}> -}> I am using plugins 1.3.1 and Nagios 1.3 (on a HP-UX 11.00 system). -}> -}> Regards -}> -}> Marco Borsani -}> Unix & Monitoring System Administrator Technical Operation -}> Tel. +39 010 4310115 -}> Fax +39 010 4327454 -}> E-mail: m.borsani@IT.net -}> -}> ITnet S.r.l. - Direzione e Coordinamento di WIND=20 -}Telecomunicazioni S.p.A. -}> Internet Service Provider -}> Sede legale: Via C.G.Viola, 48 - 00148 Roma -}> Dir.

Use_regexp_matching=1 will turn on regex for entries that contain a "*" or "?" only. Use_true_regex_matching=1 will turn it on completely, which while it sounds neat, will cause lots of headaches. Consider if you have a host named "mile", and another named "smiles". If you have true_regex on, you will never be able to only reference the host "mile" as every entry for it will match "smiles". (You would have to use "^mile$" to be safe) That's why is recommended to keep it off unless you really know what you are doing. > -----Original Message----- > From: Ivan Fetch [<A HREF="mailto:ifetch@du.edu">mailto:ifetch@du.edu</A>] > Sent: Thursday, March 23, 2006 12:37 PM > To: Andrew Laden > Cc: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: RE: [Nagios-users] Difficulty with wildcards in > serviceescalation > > Hello, > > Andrew, I wanted to thank you for your reply, and mention > that yes this does work as I wanted. > > I am curious what setting use_regexp_matching to 1, but > use_true_regexp_matching to 0 would bring to the table (given > that the docs apparently mis-state these options). > > > Thanks - Ivan. > On Tue, 21 Feb 2006, Andrew > Laden wrote: > > > There is a documentation error.

It keeps outputting on the screen Out of Memory errors which causes loss of access to the server. I can ping the box but I cannot SSH or web into it to view any information. This has been happening increasingly more lately. Now it is about every 2-3 days that this is occurring. We have been adding more and more devices to the servers and this problem has been increasing as this occurs. This is how I have it set up. =20 I have a Main Nagios server that is running the latest 2.0 (stable) Nagios release. It is monitoring about 6800 devices but it is not actively checking the devices. Its main role is to provide a web interface and receive passive polls from three other servers which do the polling. The main server also does email notifications when a device goes down. The server sends about 30-40 emails a day. I am using NSCA 2.5 between the server and the client Nagios servers. I am only monitoring one service for each device which is either TCP or ping depending on the device. Mostly all devices are monitored with TCP (roughly 6000). The rest are monitored with ping. The individual servers are pretty evenly spread with the number of devices. They are about 2000-2500 each. =20 All the servers are just basic computers, Dell Dimension 2400s with base hardware. The main server was upgraded to 2GB RAM while the other servers are running 512MB each. They are all running Celeron 2.4 GHz processors. The individual servers are not having out of memory problems and they are running the latest 2.0 (stable) release as well. They all run RedHat 9.0 with everything installed for the packages. =20 Can someone please help me in resolving this problem? Thanks. =20 =20 =20 =20 =20 =20 The TOP process does not appear like it is running out of memory.

Thanks Have you determined what process is using the memory? One of the first steps you should take is to set appropriate ulimits for memory utilization for that user so that it doesn't bring down the server. I would configure nagios to monitor memory on that server then use top or ps to identify the process(es) using the allocated memory when memory utilization is high. That will provide better direction for troubleshooting rather than simply that the machine is crashing due to memory exhaustion. The nagios deamon itself isn't going to be using a lot of RAM (10M on my box with 3400 passive services). My somewhat unfounded guess is that perhaps nagios isn't reaping the results from NSCA frequently enough so you're having a backlog of ncsa processes. Each process uses just a little memory but if you have thousands of them then it adds up. I've personally experienced this on a machine that was experiencing disk problems. If this is the case, beyond a hardware problem or capacity issue, I'd verify that your command_check_interval is set to -1 to make sure that nagios is checking the external command file as quickly as it can. -- Marc=20 --__--__-- Message: 18 From: "enediel gonzalez" <enediel@hotmail.com> To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Date: Thu, 23 Mar 2006 19:20:26 +0000 Subject: [Nagios-users] incomplete information showed by status.cgi Hello I have nagios running on my debian box.
