extended_parse error

[bin li]

Got the following errro when tried to remove a host with remove_host.py https://github.com/pynag/pynag/blob/master/examples/Parsers/remove_host.py

 

# remove_host.py  nefdev2                                              
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/bli4/nagios/bin/remove_host.py", line 16, in <module>
    nc.extended_parse()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pynag/Parsers/__init__.py", line 1217, in extended_parse
    if host['host_name'] in self._get_active_hosts(service):

    if host_name[0] == "!":
IndexError: string index out of range

What could be the issue?

Thanks

Hmm i see that there are a lot of old and not maintained examples under Parser/ that need to be cleaned up.

If you need example on how to remove a host in python code:

#!/usr/bin/env python

import pynag.Model

my_host = pynag.Model.Host.objects.get_by_shortname('host.example.com')

my_host.delete()

If you simply want to remove a host you can use the pynag command line:

# Remove a host

pynag delete where host_name=host.example.com and object_type=host

# Remove all its services

pynag delete where host_name=host.example.com and object_type=service

Does this remove the host from all services and hostgroups? I am looking for a a way to remove all references of the host.

Thanks

Yes. Yes it should.

The python code you see there is a parameter called cleanup_related_items and the default is set to True.

It works great. Thanks
