1 | NAGIOS MONITORING |
---|
2 | ----------------- |
---|
3 | |
---|
4 | On AUTH1 server |
---|
5 | |
---|
6 | 1. Go to Nagios working directory |
---|
7 | |
---|
8 | $ cd /usr/local/etc/nagios |
---|
9 | |
---|
10 | 2. Copy Nagios sample files |
---|
11 | |
---|
12 | To do this, make sure you are in Nagios working directory from the first step |
---|
13 | There are Nagios's sample files in the directory, which we need to copy them |
---|
14 | as working copies. The easiest is to become temporarily root, and rename |
---|
15 | the files: |
---|
16 | |
---|
17 | $ sudo -s |
---|
18 | |
---|
19 | You can then copy the commands below: |
---|
20 | |
---|
21 | cp cgi.cfg-sample cgi.cfg |
---|
22 | cp nagios.cfg-sample nagios.cfg |
---|
23 | cp resource.cfg-sample resource.cfg |
---|
24 | cp objects/commands.cfg-sample objects/commands.cfg |
---|
25 | cp objects/contacts.cfg-sample objects/contacts.cfg |
---|
26 | cp objects/localhost.cfg-sample objects/localhost.cfg |
---|
27 | cp objects/templates.cfg-sample objects/templates.cfg |
---|
28 | cp objects/timeperiods.cfg-sample objects/timeperiods.cfg |
---|
29 | |
---|
30 | # exit |
---|
31 | $ |
---|
32 | |
---|
33 | 3. Create monitoring configuration files for DNS Servers |
---|
34 | |
---|
35 | While are you still in Nagios working directory, create a new file for DNS servers monitoring |
---|
36 | |
---|
37 | Change the following below: |
---|
38 | xx: your group number |
---|
39 | yy: group number of your slave server |
---|
40 | MYTLD: your zone name |
---|
41 | |
---|
42 | $ sudo vi objects/dns-servers.cfg |
---|
43 | |
---|
44 | - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - cut below - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - |
---|
45 | |
---|
46 | ### Define the host server |
---|
47 | |
---|
48 | define host{ |
---|
49 | use freebsd-server |
---|
50 | host_name auth1 |
---|
51 | alias master |
---|
52 | address 10.20.xx.1 |
---|
53 | } |
---|
54 | |
---|
55 | define host{ |
---|
56 | use freebsd-server |
---|
57 | host_name resolv |
---|
58 | alias cache |
---|
59 | address 10.20.xx.3 |
---|
60 | } |
---|
61 | |
---|
62 | ## If you didn't configure auth2, don't list it |
---|
63 | |
---|
64 | define host{ |
---|
65 | use freebsd-server |
---|
66 | host_name auth2 |
---|
67 | alias slave |
---|
68 | address 10.20.xx.2 |
---|
69 | } |
---|
70 | |
---|
71 | ## Our secondary in another group (replace Y/yy with the group number) |
---|
72 | |
---|
73 | define host{ |
---|
74 | use freebsd-server |
---|
75 | host_name auth1.grpYY.dns.nsrc.org |
---|
76 | alias remote-slave |
---|
77 | address 10.20.yy.2 |
---|
78 | } |
---|
79 | |
---|
80 | ### Define the group |
---|
81 | |
---|
82 | define hostgroup{ |
---|
83 | hostgroup_name dns-servers |
---|
84 | alias DNS Servers |
---|
85 | members auth1,resolv |
---|
86 | } |
---|
87 | |
---|
88 | ### Define Services |
---|
89 | |
---|
90 | define service { |
---|
91 | use generic-service ; Name of service template to use |
---|
92 | hostgroup_name dns-servers |
---|
93 | service_description PING |
---|
94 | check_command check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60% |
---|
95 | } |
---|
96 | |
---|
97 | define service { |
---|
98 | use generic-service ; Name of service template to use |
---|
99 | hostgroup_name dns-servers |
---|
100 | service_description Check DNS |
---|
101 | check_command check_dns!www.MYTLD |
---|
102 | } |
---|
103 | |
---|
104 | - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - cut end - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - |
---|
105 | |
---|
106 | 4. Add check_dns service |
---|
107 | |
---|
108 | By default, Nagios doesn't configure check_dns service, we need to add line below into commands.cfg |
---|
109 | |
---|
110 | $ sudo vi objects/commands.cfg |
---|
111 | |
---|
112 | - Place this below the check_nt service check definition: |
---|
113 | |
---|
114 | - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - cut below - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - |
---|
115 | |
---|
116 | define command{ |
---|
117 | command_name check_dns |
---|
118 | command_line $USER1$/check_dns -s $HOSTADDRESS$ -H $ARG1$ |
---|
119 | } |
---|
120 | |
---|
121 | - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - cut end - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - |
---|
122 | |
---|
123 | 5. Enable DNS monitoring group in Nagios configuration files |
---|
124 | |
---|
125 | Now you have DNS Server monitoring files (dns-server.cfg) created. We need to enable on nagios.cfg file for monitoring |
---|
126 | |
---|
127 | $ sudo vi /usr/local/etc/nagios/nagios.cfg |
---|
128 | |
---|
129 | Look for the line "cfg_file=/usr/local/etc/nagios/objects/localhost.cfg" and add below content |
---|
130 | |
---|
131 | - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - cut below - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - |
---|
132 | |
---|
133 | # Definition for DNS servers |
---|
134 | cfg_file=/usr/local/etc/nagios/objects/dns-servers.cfg |
---|
135 | |
---|
136 | - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - cut end - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - |
---|
137 | |
---|
138 | |
---|
139 | 6. Enable Nagios service |
---|
140 | |
---|
141 | To enable nagios service add the line below in /etc/rc.conf |
---|
142 | |
---|
143 | nagios_enable="YES" |
---|
144 | |
---|
145 | |
---|
146 | 7. Start Nagios service |
---|
147 | |
---|
148 | To start nagios service |
---|
149 | |
---|
150 | $ sudo service nagios start |
---|
151 | |
---|
152 | Nagios should be running right now without any error report. |
---|
153 | |
---|
154 | |
---|
155 | 8. Create Apache password authentication file for Nagios |
---|
156 | |
---|
157 | Nagios required authentication via http to gain admin access to it web interface. |
---|
158 | Let's create the password file |
---|
159 | |
---|
160 | $ sudo -s |
---|
161 | # htpasswd -c /usr/local/etc/apache22/nagios.auth nagiosadmin |
---|
162 | New password: |
---|
163 | |
---|
164 | Set your desire password (perhaps, use the class password) |
---|
165 | |
---|
166 | # exit |
---|
167 | $ |
---|
168 | |
---|
169 | |
---|
170 | Password file is now created |
---|
171 | |
---|
172 | 9. Create Nagios' Apache configuration for web interface access |
---|
173 | |
---|
174 | Go to Apache Includes directory |
---|
175 | |
---|
176 | $ cd /usr/local/etc/apache22/Includes |
---|
177 | |
---|
178 | If there already is a nagios.conf file in the directory, we will |
---|
179 | remove and rebuild it. Our new configuration is significantly different. |
---|
180 | |
---|
181 | To do this do: |
---|
182 | |
---|
183 | $ sudo rm nagios.conf |
---|
184 | |
---|
185 | Then edit the file: |
---|
186 | |
---|
187 | $ sudo vi nagios.conf |
---|
188 | |
---|
189 | Add the lines below into the file: |
---|
190 | |
---|
191 | - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - cut below - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - |
---|
192 | |
---|
193 | AddType application/x-httpd-php .php |
---|
194 | AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps |
---|
195 | |
---|
196 | ScriptAlias /nagios/cgi-bin/ /usr/local/www/nagios/cgi-bin/ |
---|
197 | Alias /nagios/ /usr/local/www/nagios/ |
---|
198 | |
---|
199 | <Directory "/usr/local/www/nagios/cgi-bin"> |
---|
200 | Options ExecCGI |
---|
201 | AllowOverride None |
---|
202 | Order allow,deny |
---|
203 | Allow from all |
---|
204 | AuthName "Nagios Access" |
---|
205 | AuthType Basic |
---|
206 | Require valid-user |
---|
207 | AuthUserFile /usr/local/etc/apache22/nagios.auth |
---|
208 | </Directory> |
---|
209 | |
---|
210 | <Directory "/usr/local/www/nagios"> |
---|
211 | AllowOverride None |
---|
212 | Order allow,deny |
---|
213 | Allow from all |
---|
214 | AuthName "Nagios Access" |
---|
215 | AuthType Basic |
---|
216 | Require valid-user |
---|
217 | AuthUserFile /usr/local/etc/apache22/nagios.auth |
---|
218 | </Directory> |
---|
219 | |
---|
220 | - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - cut end - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - |
---|
221 | |
---|
222 | 10. Now, edit the main apache config. |
---|
223 | |
---|
224 | $ sudo vi /usr/local/etc/apache22/httpd.conf |
---|
225 | |
---|
226 | Find the line: |
---|
227 | |
---|
228 | DirectoryIndex index.html |
---|
229 | |
---|
230 | And change it to: |
---|
231 | |
---|
232 | DirectoryIndex index.html index.php |
---|
233 | |
---|
234 | |
---|
235 | 11. Enable and start Apache web service if required, by adding this |
---|
236 | to /etc/rc.conf |
---|
237 | |
---|
238 | $ sudo vi /etc/rc.conf |
---|
239 | |
---|
240 | apache22_enable="YES" |
---|
241 | |
---|
242 | (Save file and exit) |
---|
243 | |
---|
244 | $ sudo service apache22 restart |
---|
245 | |
---|
246 | 12. Access to Nagios web page via http://10.20.xxx.1/nagios/ |
---|
247 | |
---|
248 | You will need to user "nagiosadmin" as the user and the password you |
---|
249 | specified previously using the htpasswd command. |
---|
250 | |
---|
251 | Take a looking around the Nagios interface to see what is being |
---|
252 | reported. |
---|
253 | |
