I and running Nagios 2.9 and I configured what you said but that didn’t fix the problem it just caused a couple of others. Here is what I did bellow.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <![if !supportLists]>1) <![endif]>I didn’t configure the service to have active_checks on and had no check_period configured. This did resolve the issue of the service saying disabled because the active check was turned on. This caused another problem. The active checks were being done after 30 seconds way before my freshness_threshold of 600 seconds and my normal_check_interval of 3 minutes. It shouldn’t have checked it at all.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <![if !supportLists]>2) <![endif]>I tried it another way of creating a check_period called none which had not times configured to check. I made the service use this as its check_period. When I did this it then never ran an active check even though I had a freshness_threshold configured.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Is there something I did wrong, or are you running an older version of Nagios then 2.9? If anyone else has found a resolution to this problem I would appreciate your comments.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Thank you,<o:p></o:p> <div> Jeff<o:p></o:p> </div> <div> <div class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'> <hr size=2 width="100%" align=center tabindex=-1> </div> From: nagios-users-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net [mailto:nagios-users-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net] On Behalf Of Marco Supino Sent: Tuesday, May 08, 2007 10:43 PM To: Simon Marcil; <st1:PersonName w:st="on">nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net</st1:PersonName> Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Distributed Monitoring Web Interface Issue<o:p></o:p> </div> <o:p> </o:p> Hi,<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> I have the same scenario, and what I did was to enable active checks on all services, but put check_period to none, so a check is never executed, except if freshness checking runs it.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Marco.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <div> <div class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'> <hr size=2 width="100%" align=center tabindex=-1> </div> From: nagios-users-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net [mailto:nagios-users-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net] On Behalf Of Simon Marcil Sent: Wednesday, May 09, 2007 02:59 To: <st1:PersonName w:st="on">nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net</st1:PersonName> Subject: [Nagios-users] Distributed Monitoring Web Interface Issue<o:p></o:p> </div> <o:p> </o:p> I have a distributed monitoring setup. I have several servers reporting back to a central server. The central server also does a couple checks but most of it’s hosts and services are disabled (because it receives the info from other servers).<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> The problem I have is with the web interface. In the Tactical Overview all the problems reported from distributed servers show up as “disabled”. This means that we can’t have a correct listing of Unhandled Problems. For example, Let’s say I have 3 hosts down coming from a distributed server with 1 that has been acknowledged. I will have the following:<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> 3 Down<o:p></o:p> 1 Acknowledged<o:p></o:p> 3 Disabled <o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> In this example, is there a way to only list the host which are down and not acknowledged???<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> If this wasn’t clear let me know and I will clearify.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Simon<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> </div> </body> </html>
