Latest, 0.4.3.

NCPA is a pretty good tool and many people like it, but I would ensure that it works on all the platforms you will use it on:

Latest, 0.4.3.

0.4.3 and 0.4.2 are still heavily under development and is pretty buggy. 0.4.1 seems pretty stable.

I believe what you are experiencing is a bug in the code.

I looked at some of the other ones like check_negate.

This worked:

Code: Select all

Command:
./check_nrpe -H win2008r2-01 -c check_negate -a "command=check_memory"

Output:
OK: |'committed'=0.58264GB;6.39775;7.19747;0;7.99719 'committed %'=7%;79;89;0;100 'physical'=0.58946GB;3.1996;3.59955;0;3.9995 'physical %'=14%;80;90;0;100

So I assume that check_always_ok has not been properly coded in yet.

This page says:

CheckAlwaysOK Alternative name for: check_always_ok Run another check and regardless of its return code return OK

So if I try that I get:

Code: Select all

Command:
./check_nrpe -H win2008r2-01 -c CheckAlwaysOk -a "command=check_memory"

Output:
|

Doesn't look properly coded.

It would be worthwhile logging an issue on GitHub:

Thanks for looking into this. Interesting that the version is flagged as stable when it clearly has issues.

I agree, unfortunately we have no control over that. Let us know if you get any responses, or you can post the issue here as well! Thanks!
