Re: Using check_vmware_api

I'll look at that, but we're looking to alert for levels above the warn and crit, right? Wouldn't it trigger on:
./check_vmware_api -D vcenter -l MEM -u user -p password -w 1 -c 2

I shouldn't be looking to exceed the numbers. I should alert if the reading exceeds my stated levels.

Re: Using check_vmware_api

Sorry. I included only the base portion of the command that was working. I've attempted to add -w and -c with no change no matter what I set them to. ./check_vmware_api -D vcenter -l MEM -u user -p password -w 50 -c 100 and ./check_vmware_api -D vcenter -l MEM -u user -p password -w 500000 -c 100000...

Using check_vmware_api

I've been able to get the plugin installed and working at the command line for the most part. But I can't seem to get it to recognize warn and crit conditions. Does anyone have a sample command line that works for this?

Re: No ping template not working

And...? This is the template that worked properly on 3.x. I can't check ping, but I want to check DNS. I got it to green up by submitting a passive check.

No ping template not working

I brought over a no ping host template from 3.x to 4.0.2. On the 4.x, the host check sits at pending forever. Service checks are ok. What's wrong here? # Public no ping define host{ name public-noping ; The name of this host template use generic-host ; Inherit default values from the generic-host te...

Re: Warnings causing service failure

Just that one warning. It relates to having the normal_check_interval specified in the file for that host. If I remove that, the warning goes away and the service starts.
