Hi,
Here’s my problem… I have configured the 2d map in Nagios so I have a nice visual of my devices.
Unfortunately, the green “Up” or red “Down” state of an host is ridiculousely small.
So, I thougt of changing the background png file.
I tried to do that by writing a small script on ping errors on some device… BUT -this is the problem-, the script does not seem to be launched.
I made :
define command{
command_name change_background
command_line /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/change_background_map $HOSTSTATE$
}
and
define service{
name critic-serv
active_checks_enabled 1
passive_checks_enabled 1
parallelize_check 1
obsess_over_service 1
check_freshness 0
notifications_enabled 1
event_handler_enabled 1
event_handler change_background
flap_detection_enabled 1
process_perf_data 1
retain_status_information 1
retain_nonstatus_information 1
is_volatile 0
check_period 24x7
max_check_attempts 2
normal_check_interval 2
retry_check_interval 1
contact_groups GROUP
notification_interval 240
notification_period 24x7
notification_options u,w,c,r
register 0
}
define service{
use critic-serv
host_name myserver
service_description Ping
check_command check_ping!500,60%!5000,100%
}
When I launch the script from the Command line, it’s OK.
All owners and mods are the same in the dir /usr/lib/nagios/plugins.
Tried to be as complete as possible…
Hope someone will be able to help !
Thanx and Merry Xmas
