Re: SQL Plugin Does not like space in Database Name

Hello again Tom, This error is not being generated by Nagios but rather by the VBScript itself. The next step in troubleshooting would be to run the script from the command line of the Windows host and post the output like this: cscript check_sqldbsize.vbs SERVERINSTANCE DATABASE WARNING CRITICAL

Re: Stop monitoring a host if it's OFF and re-monitor when O

Hello Dotzek, Are these hosts brought down at a predetermined time? Ie; hourly? If so, the Scheduled Downtime functionality could be the solution you're looking for.

Re: Nagios error daily

Hello Phill123, If this issue only affects this service check, and it consistently occurs at the same time every day, it's very unlikely that it's caused on the Nagios side. I would look at the logs on GRS-BB01 and see if anything unusual happens at 5:00AM. Also, if you're monitoring other metrics o...

Re: how can ping a server from windows server and show outpu

Hello Baber, Please let me know if I understand correctly. You want to ping a host from your windows host and return the output as a service check on your Nagios host. Is this correct? If so, this Powershell plugin appears to do just that. Let me know if this is what you're looking for. Thank you fo...

Re: SQL Plugin Does not like space in Database Name

Hello Tom, Two things to try are: 1) Escape the database name with the Linux escape character "\" like this: my\ database (space after the \) 2) Single quote " ' " the database name. If this doesn't resolve your issue, let me know and I'll attempt to recreate your issue. Thank yo...

Re: nagios.log invalid mode

The first thing I would try would be to just use a regular file for nagios.log (what nagios expects) and create a symbolic link to it for your user. Is there a reason why this approach wouldn't work for you?

Re: [NAGIOS] error NRPE: Unable to read output

Hello, If you run: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H <host_ip> By itself and it returns the version of NRPE, but the command returns "Unable to read output", the issue is likely in the script itself. Not knowing the contents of the script, it's difficult to diagnose your issue. If yo...

Re: Running Solaris NRPE Agent on Solaris 11

Hello Gshaw2006,

It would appear that the SSL libraries are not installed on your Solaris box. Please install openssl using pkgadd and run the ./fullinstall script again. Thank you!
