Nagios Support Forum

Thank you all for the replies. Unfortunately this did not seem to work for me. I'm still seeing the Unknown error on all the drives on this server.

the host definition for SQLSrv1 define host{ use windows-server host_name SQLSrv1 alias SQLSrv1 address /IP address of SQLSrv1/ statusmap_image server.png } the service definition that uses the command checknt!USEDDISKSPACE This is a selection of the clustered disk monitoring definitions. They all ...

So I have some weird behavior I need to figure out, and I was hoping someone here may be able to shed some light on the answer. So I have a set of SQL servers that feed our database. These servers use a series of clustered drives. The basic configuration is that we have ClusterSrv1 and ClusterSrv2, ...

Okay so I enable the debugger with the -1 value and number 2 detail value, and this is what I get for my FTP check: EVENT_HOST_CH...

I really think you're looking at a problem with trying to drop the file in a place that you don't have privileges to do so. Remember - you're doing your testing as the root user but your script runs as the nagios user. You're assuming where the file will be written, and it's possible that it can't ...

Do you output a message to standard out in your plugin? (sorry didnt read through it all as I am by no means a perl guy) It seems to me that the error is one of two things: more file permissions issues with the ftp script. (not likely as you can run it via su - nagios) the plugin does not output to...

It's possible I did it wrong initially, because I was able to get it to work now. So the only thing I'm having a problem with is for some reason when I run my script as the Nagios user, I don't see any changes to the files (part of the script writes the current date and time to the file, then later ...
