Nagios Support Forum

Dear users Our Nagios has a high current load. My first question is where can I change the values that indicate "ok", "warning" or "critical"? I can't seem to find it, not even in the core config manager. Second: does this mean that our Nagios servers lacks CPU power? T...

It's a virtual machine. Installed with an OVF template.
There is a lot going on at night. Backups via the network and such, could it be that the storage box or the network is saturated?

Here you are. In the mean time I increased the amount of memory from 2GB to 4GB and increased the CPU cores from 1 to 2. df -h [root@localhost ~]# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root 7.3G 5.3G 1.7G 77% / tmpfs 1.9G 0 1.9G 0% /dev/shm /dev/sda1 477M 66M 386M ...

A bit confusing that it works different with services... ...works perfectly when the service isn't running.

Dear members Found it after some trial and error. Seems like with ":" you can set how many processes there are allowed to run. ./check_wmi_plus.pl -H 10.20.1.203 -u <username> -p <password> -m checkprocess -s Commandline -a PDFCreator.exe -c 1:2 So if the PDFCreator.exe process is running ...

Dear members I have a certain process that has to be monitored. If the process isn't running it should return Critical. Below is the code what I have so far, but it always returns critical. ./check_wmi_plus.pl -H 10.20.1.203 -u <username> -p <password> -m checkprocess -s Commandline -a PDFCreator.ex...
