It has the ability to send email or page alerts when a problem arises and when a problem is resolved. Nagios is written in C and is designed to run under Linux (and some other *NIX variants) as a background process, intermittently running checks on various services that you specify. The actual service checks are performed by separate "plugin" programs which return the status of the checks to Nagios. The plugins are available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/nagiosplug. This package provides the core program, web interface, and documentation files for Nagios. Development files are built as a separate package. /etc/httpd/conf.d/nagios.conf /etc/logrotate.d/nagios /etc/nagios/cgi.cfg /etc/nagios/conf.d /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg /etc/nagios/objects

Basis-Konfiguration
WEB-Server
Für die Konfiguration des Apache-Webserver liefert uns das RPM-Paket bereits eine vorgefertigte Musterdatei mit.
# less /etc/httpd/conf.d/nagios.conf
- /etc/httpd/conf.d/nagios.conf
# SAMPLE CONFIG SNIPPETS FOR APACHE WEB SERVER # # This file contains examples of entries that need # to be incorporated into your Apache web server # configuration file. Customize the paths, etc. as # needed to fit your system. <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^/$ /nagios/index.php [R] </IfModule> ScriptAlias /nagios/cgi-bin "/usr/lib64/nagios/cgi-bin" <Directory "/usr/lib64/nagios/cgi-bin"> # SSLRequireSSL Options +ExecCGI AllowOverride All AuthName "Nagios Access" AuthType Basic AuthUserFile /etc/nagios/passwd <IfModule mod_authz_core.c> # Apache 2.4 <RequireAll> Require all granted # Require local Require valid-user </RequireAll> </IfModule> <IfModule !mod_authz_core.c> # Apache 2.2 Order allow,deny Allow from all # Order deny,allow # Deny from all # Allow from 127.0.0.1 Require valid-user </IfModule> </Directory> Alias /nagios "/usr/share/nagios/html" <Directory "/usr/share/nagios/html"> # SSLRequireSSL Options None AllowOverride None AuthName "Nagios Access" AuthType Basic AuthUserFile /etc/nagios/passwd <IfModule mod_authz_core.c> # Apache 2.4 <RequireAll> Require all granted # Require local Require valid-user </RequireAll> </IfModule> <IfModule !mod_authz_core.c> # Apache 2.2 Order allow,deny Allow from all # Order deny,allow # Deny from all # Allow from 127.0.0.1 Require valid-user </IfModule> </Directory>
Bevor wir die Konfiguration unseres Apache Webservers „scharf“ schalten, testen wir die Konfigurationsdatei noch auf syntaktische Fehler.
# apachectl -t
Syntax OK
Ist alles O.K., aktivieren wir die Konfiguration mit einem Reload unseres Apache-Webservers.
# systemctl condrestart httpd
Nutzerkonten
Damit sich unser(e) Nagios-User am WEB-Frontend anmelden können, brauchen wir zur Authorisierung noch entsprechende Nutzerkonten, bestehend aus User und Passwort. Diese legen wir mit Hilfe des Befehls htpasswd an. Für den ersten Account admin benutzen wir htpasswd mit der Option -c (create).
# htpasswd -c /etc/nagios/passwd nagiosadmin
New password: Re-type new password: Adding password for user nagiosadmin
Bei jedem weiteren Nutzer brauchen wir dann keine Option -c, da die Datei ja bereits existiert und wir sonst die ggf. bestehenden Nutzeraccounts überschreiben würden!
# htpasswd /etc/nagios/passwd django
New password: Re-type new password: Adding password for user django
Nagios Web-Frontend
Nun können wir uns am Webfrontend anmelden. Wir rufen also mit dem Browser unserer Wahl den zuvor aktivierten Webserver auf.
$ firefox http://nagios.nausch.org
Hier geben wir nun unsere Anmeldedaten ein, die wir zuvor angelegt hatten.
Konfigurationsbeispiele
Je nach Art und Umfang der zu überwachenden Systeme und Dienste nimmt der Umfang der nötigen Konfigurationsaufgaben zu. Einen kleinen Einblick gewährt z.B. nachfolgender Verzeichnisbaum in das Monitoring einer kleinen IT-Organisation.

Je nach Anforderungen kann zur Konfiguration und Verwaltung der einzelnen Objekte eine SQL-Datenbank oder auch einzelne Dateien verwendet werden. Für die IT-Landschaft bei nausch.org kommen entsprechende Konfigurationsdateien zum Einsatz. So können ohne großen Aufwand einzelne Objekte schnell und einfach eingestellt und angepasst werden. Auf diese einfache Konfigurationsschritte gehen wir nun anschließend bei einem System/Server kurz ein.
nagios.cfg
Die grundlegende Konfiguration von nagios erfolgt mit Hilfe der Datei nagios.cfg.
# vim /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg

############################################################################## # # NAGIOS.CFG - Sample Main Config File for Nagios 4.0.8 # # Read the documentation for more information on this configuration # file. I've provided some comments here, but things may not be so # clear without further explanation. # # ############################################################################## # LOG FILE # This is the main log file where service and host events are logged # for historical purposes. This should be the first option specified # in the config file!!! log_file=/var/log/nagios/nagios.log # OBJECT CONFIGURATION FILE(S) # These are the object configuration files in which you define hosts, # host groups, contacts, contact groups, services, etc. # You can split your object definitions across several config files # if you wish (as shown below), or keep them all in a single config file. # You can specify individual object config files as shown below: cfg_file=/etc/nagios/objects/commands.cfg # Django : 2015-02-17 # default: cfg_file=/etc/nagios/objects/contacts.cfg cfg_file=/etc/nagios/objects/timeperiods.cfg # Django : 2015-02-17 # default: cfg_file=/etc/nagios/objects/templates.cfg # Definitions for monitoring the local (Linux) host # Django : 2015-02-17 # default: cfg_file=/etc/nagios/objects/localhost.cfg # Definitions for monitoring a Windows machine #cfg_file=/etc/nagios/objects/windows.cfg # Definitions for monitoring a router/switch #cfg_file=/etc/nagios/objects/switch.cfg # Definitions for monitoring a network printer #cfg_file=/etc/nagios/objects/printer.cfg # You can also tell Nagios to process all config files (with a .cfg # extension) in a particular directory by using the cfg_dir # directive as shown below: #cfg_dir=/etc/nagios/servers #cfg_dir=/etc/nagios/printers #cfg_dir=/etc/nagios/switches #cfg_dir=/etc/nagios/routers # Django : 2015-02-17 cfg_dir=/etc/nagios/objects/commands cfg_dir=/etc/nagios/objects/templates cfg_dir=/etc/nagios/objects/nausch.org cfg_dir=/etc/nagios/conf.d # OBJECT CACHE FILE # This option determines where object definitions are cached when # Nagios starts/restarts. The CGIs read object definitions from # this cache file (rather than looking at the object config files # directly) in order to prevent inconsistencies that can occur # when the config files are modified after Nagios starts. object_cache_file=/var/spool/nagios/objects.cache # PRE-CACHED OBJECT FILE # This options determines the location of the precached object file. # If you run Nagios with the -p command line option, it will preprocess # your object configuration file(s) and write the cached config to this # file. You can then start Nagios with the -u option to have it read # object definitions from this precached file, rather than the standard # object configuration files (see the cfg_file and cfg_dir options above). # Using a precached object file can speed up the time needed to (re)start # the Nagios process if you've got a large and/or complex configuration. # Read the documentation section on optimizing Nagios to find our more # about how this feature works. precached_object_file=/var/spool/nagios/objects.precache # RESOURCE FILE # This is an optional resource file that contains $USERx$ macro # definitions. Multiple resource files can be specified by using # multiple resource_file definitions. The CGIs will not attempt to # read the contents of resource files, so information that is # considered to be sensitive (usernames, passwords, etc) can be # defined as macros in this file and restrictive permissions (600) # can be placed on this file. resource_file=/etc/nagios/private/resource.cfg # STATUS FILE # This is where the current status of all monitored services and # hosts is stored. Its contents are read and processed by the CGIs. # The contents of the status file are deleted every time Nagios # restarts. status_file=/var/spool/nagios/status.dat # STATUS FILE UPDATE INTERVAL # This option determines the frequency (in seconds) that # Nagios will periodically dump program, host, and # service status data. status_update_interval=10 # NAGIOS USER # This determines the effective user that Nagios should run as. # You can either supply a username or a UID. nagios_user=nagios # NAGIOS GROUP # This determines the effective group that Nagios should run as. # You can either supply a group name or a GID. nagios_group=nagios # EXTERNAL COMMAND OPTION # This option allows you to specify whether or not Nagios should check # for external commands (in the command file defined below). By default # Nagios will *not* check for external commands, just to be on the # cautious side. If you want to be able to use the CGI command interface # you will have to enable this. # Values: 0 = disable commands, 1 = enable commands check_external_commands=1 # EXTERNAL COMMAND FILE # This is the file that Nagios checks for external command requests. # It is also where the command CGI will write commands that are submitted # by users, so it must be writeable by the user that the web server # is running as (usually 'nobody'). Permissions should be set at the # directory level instead of on the file, as the file is deleted every # time its contents are processed. command_file=/var/spool/nagios/cmd/nagios.cmd # QUERY HANDLER INTERFACE # This is the socket that is created for the Query Handler interface #query_socket=/var/log/nagios/rw/nagios.qh # LOCK FILE # This is the lockfile that Nagios will use to store its PID number # in when it is running in daemon mode. lock_file=/var/run/nagios.pid # TEMP FILE # This is a temporary file that is used as scratch space when Nagios # updates the status log, cleans the comment file, etc. This file # is created, used, and deleted throughout the time that Nagios is # running. temp_file=/var/spool/nagios/nagios.tmp # TEMP PATH # This is path where Nagios can create temp files for service and # host check results, etc. temp_path=/tmp # EVENT BROKER OPTIONS # Controls what (if any) data gets sent to the event broker. # Values: 0 = Broker nothing # -1 = Broker everything # <other> = See documentation event_broker_options=-1 # EVENT BROKER MODULE(S) # This directive is used to specify an event broker module that should # by loaded by Nagios at startup. Use multiple directives if you want # to load more than one module. Arguments that should be passed to # the module at startup are seperated from the module path by a space. # #!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! # WARNING !!! WARNING !!! WARNING !!! WARNING !!! WARNING !!! WARNING #!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! # # Do NOT overwrite modules while they are being used by Nagios or Nagios # will crash in a fiery display of SEGFAULT glory. This is a bug/limitation # either in dlopen(), the kernel, and/or the filesystem. And maybe Nagios... # # The correct/safe way of updating a module is by using one of these methods: # 1. Shutdown Nagios, replace the module file, restart Nagios # 2.

Definition CONTACT
Damit unser Admin Django über Statusänderungen auch per eMail informiert werden kann, definieren wir uns ein entsprechendes Objekt im Verzeichnis /etc/nagios/objects/nausch.org/contact/.
# vim /etc/nagios/objects/nausch.org/contact/object_contact_django.cfg
- /etc/nagios/objects/nausch.org/contact/object_contact_django.cfg
define contact{ contact_name django alias Michael Nausch use generic-contact email django@nausch.org address2 0900 2255-352646 can_submit_commands 1 }
Definition HOST
Um einen einzelnen Server zu monitoren legen wir uns eine Datei im Verzeichnis /etc/nagios/objects/nausch.org/hosts/dmz/ mit den Details zum Server an.
# vim /etc/nagios/objects/nausch.org/hosts/dmz/vml000067.cfg
- /etc/nagios/objects/nausch.org/hosts/dmz/vml000067.cfg
define host{ use linux-virtualserver ; Name of host template to use host_name vml000067 alias amavis address 10.0.0.67 notes_url http://dokuwiki.nausch.org/doku.php/centos:mail_c7:spam_6 }
Definition HOST-GRUPPE
Einzelne Server gruppieren wir entsprechend ihrem Einsatzzweck bzw. ihres Aufstellungsortes.
# vim /etc/nagios/objects/nausch.org/hostgroups/dmz/hostgroups_dmz.nausch.org.cfg
- /etc/nagios/objects/nausch.org/hostgroups/dmz/hostgroups_dmz.nausch.org.cfg
# Django : 2013-12-07 # Alle Hosts der DMZ define hostgroup { hostgroup_name dmz.nausch.org alias DMZ members vml000010, vml000067, vml000077, vml000087 }
Definition NRPE
Damit unser Nagios-Server auf dem Remote-System auch entsprechende Checks anstoßen kann, bedarf es der Konfiguration des NRPE1).
# vim /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg
- /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg
############################################################################# # Sample NRPE Config File # Written by: Ethan Galstad (nagios@nagios.org) # # Last Modified: 11-23-2007 # # NOTES: # This is a sample configuration file for the NRPE daemon. It needs to be # located on the remote host that is running the NRPE daemon, not the host # from which the check_nrpe client is being executed. ############################################################################# # LOG FACILITY # The syslog facility that should be used for logging purposes. log_facility=daemon # PID FILE # The name of the file in which the NRPE daemon should write it's process ID # number. The file is only written if the NRPE daemon is started by the root # user and is running in standalone mode. pid_file=/var/run/nrpe/nrpe.pid # PORT NUMBER # Port number we should wait for connections on. # NOTE: This must be a non-priviledged port (i.e. > 1024). # NOTE: This option is ignored if NRPE is running under either inetd or xinetd server_port=5666 # SERVER ADDRESS # Address that nrpe should bind to in case there are more than one interface # and you do not want nrpe to bind on all interfaces. # NOTE: This option is ignored if NRPE is running under either inetd or xinetd # Django : 2015-01-27 # default: #server_address=127.0.0.1 server_address=10.0.0.67 # NRPE USER # This determines the effective user that the NRPE daemon should run as. # You can either supply a username or a UID. # # NOTE: This option is ignored if NRPE is running under either inetd or xinetd nrpe_user=nrpe # NRPE GROUP # This determines the effective group that the NRPE daemon should run as. # You can either supply a group name or a GID. # # NOTE: This option is ignored if NRPE is running under either inetd or xinetd nrpe_group=nrpe # ALLOWED HOST ADDRESSES # This is an optional comma-delimited list of IP address or hostnames # that are allowed to talk to the NRPE daemon. Network addresses with a bit mask # (i.e. 192.168.1.0/24) are also supported. Hostname wildcards are not currently # supported. # # Note: The daemon only does rudimentary checking of the client's IP # address. I would highly recommend adding entries in your /etc/hosts.allow # file to allow only the specified host to connect to the port # you are running this daemon on. # # NOTE: This option is ignored if NRPE is running under either inetd or xinetd # Django : 2015-01-27 # default: allowed_hosts=127.0.0.1 allowed_hosts=10.0.0.127 # COMMAND ARGUMENT PROCESSING # This option determines whether or not the NRPE daemon will allow clients # to specify arguments to commands that are executed.

This option only works if the daemon was configured with both # the --enable-command-args and --enable-bash-command-substitution configure # script options. # # *** ENABLING THIS OPTION IS A HIGH SECURITY RISK! *** # Read the SECURITY file for information on some of the security implications # of enabling this variable. # # Values: 0=do not allow bash command substitutions, # 1=allow bash command substitutions allow_bash_command_substitution=0 # COMMAND PREFIX # This option allows you to prefix all commands with a user-defined string. # A space is automatically added between the specified prefix string and the # command line from the command definition. # # *** THIS EXAMPLE MAY POSE A POTENTIAL SECURITY RISK, SO USE WITH CAUTION! *** # Usage scenario: # Execute restricted commmands using sudo. For this to work, you need to add # the nagios user to your /etc/sudoers. An example entry for alllowing # execution of the plugins from might be: # # nagios ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/ # # This lets the nagios user run all commands in that directory (and only them) # without asking for a password. If you do this, make sure you don't give # random users write access to that directory or its contents! # command_prefix=/usr/bin/sudo # DEBUGGING OPTION # This option determines whether or not debugging messages are logged to the # syslog facility. # Values: 0=debugging off, 1=debugging on debug=0 # COMMAND TIMEOUT # This specifies the maximum number of seconds that the NRPE daemon will # allow plugins to finish executing before killing them off. command_timeout=60 # CONNECTION TIMEOUT # This specifies the maximum number of seconds that the NRPE daemon will # wait for a connection to be established before exiting. This is sometimes # seen where a network problem stops the SSL being established even though # all network sessions are connected. This causes the nrpe daemons to # accumulate, eating system resources. Do not set this too low. connection_timeout=300 # WEEK RANDOM SEED OPTION # This directive allows you to use SSL even if your system does not have # a /dev/random or /dev/urandom (on purpose or because the necessary patches # were not applied). The random number generator will be seeded from a file # which is either a file pointed to by the environment valiable $RANDFILE # or $HOME/.rnd. If neither exists, the pseudo random number generator will # be initialized and a warning will be issued. # Values: 0=only seed from /dev/[u]random, 1=also seed from weak randomness #allow_weak_random_seed=1 # INCLUDE CONFIG FILE # This directive allows you to include definitions from an external config file. #include=<somefile.cfg> # COMMAND DEFINITIONS # Command definitions that this daemon will run. Definitions # are in the following format: # # command[<command_name>]=<command_line> # # When the daemon receives a request to return the results of <command_name> # it will execute the command specified by the <command_line> argument. # # Unlike Nagios, the command line cannot contain macros - it must be # typed exactly as it should be executed. # # Note: Any plugins that are used in the command lines must reside # on the machine that this daemon is running on! The examples below # assume that you have plugins installed in a /usr/local/nagios/libexec # directory.

Definition SERVICE
Für jeden Check benötigen wir nun noch eine Definitionsdatei im Verzeichnis /etc/nagios/objects/nausch.org/services/. Zur Überwachung des Netzwerktraffics auf dem Netzwerkinterface eth0 legen wir uns eine zugehörige Datei an.
# vim /etc/nagios/objects/nausch.org/services/check_if_traffic_eth0.cfg
- /etc/nagios/objects/nausch.org/services/check_if_traffic_eth0.cfg
define service{ use generic-service hostgroup_name dmz.nausch.org #servicegroups foo service_description System: Netzwerk-Traffic eth0 check_command check_nrpe!check_if_traffic_eth0 }
Definition SERVICEGROUP
Betrachtet man einen Dienst wie z.B. eMail so wird man sehr schnell feststellen, dass zum „Erbringen des Dienstes eMail“ viele einzelne Glieder/Dienste in der Verarbeitungskette benötigt werden. Mit Hilfe von Servicegroups lassen sich diese Kettenglieder sehr schön und einfach gruppieren.
# vim /etc/nagios/objects/nausch.org/servicegroups/servicegroup_mail.cfg
- /etc/nagios/objects/nausch.org/servicegroups/servicegroup_mail.cfg
define servicegroup { servicegroup_name mail alias Mail-Server }
Damit nun bei den einzelnen Services die zugehörige Servicegroup herangezogen wird, tragen wir diese in der Definitionsdatei des Services ein. Das nachfolgende Beispiel zeigt exemplarisch die Überwachungskonfigurationsdatei des Postfix-Daemon.
# vim /etc/nagios/objects/nausch.org/services/check_running_postfix.cfg
- /etc/nagios/objects/nausch.org/services/check_running_postfix.cfg
define service{ use generic-service host_name vml000067, vml000077, vml000087 #hostgroup_name dmz.nausch.org servicegroups mail service_description MX: Postfix Daemon check_command check_nrpe!check_running_postfix }
In der Servicegruppe mail wird also geprüft ob auf den drei Servern der Postfix-Daemon läuft.
Konfigurations-Überprüfung
Bevor wir nach einer Änderung oder Erweiterung unserer Server- und Service-Überwachung mit einem reload des Nagios-Daemon aktivieren führen wir noch eine Überprüfung unserer Definitionen durch.

Da alles in Ordnung ist können wir nun ohne großen Bedenken den Reload des nagios-Daemon durchführen.
# systemctl reload nagios
Tippfaule Admins fassen die Überprüfen und den Reload in einen Aufruf zusammen, indem dieser durch && getrennt wurden. Der zweite Aufruf wird damit nur aufgerufen, sofern der erste ohne Fehlermeldung beendet wurde.
# nagios -pv /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg && systemctl reload nagios
Trat ein Fehler auf, können wir diesen erst beseitigen und den Daemon anschließend erneut testen und reloaden. Rufen wir anschließend das Nagios-Webfrontend erneut auf, werden unsere Server und Dienste entsprechend zur Anzeige gebracht, in dem man mit einem Klick auf die zugehörigen Menüpunkt am linken Bildschirmrand klickt.
