Ping check issue

Nagios Core 4.3.4

Having a minor issue with PING check on one host The Host is my vCenter appliance

Code: Select all

define service{
        use                             local-service
        host_name                       hostname
        service_description             PING
        check_command                   check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60%
        }
[code]


PING     WARNING 11-02-2018 21:39:08 0d 0h 16m 45s 4/4 PING WARNING - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 118.81 ms

Ping statistics for 10.2.8.11:
    Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
    Minimum = 57ms, Maximum = 121ms, Average = 93ms]

Any ideas?

From your nagios server it is seeing slightly higher RTA at 118.81 ms

Code: Select all

PING     WARNING 11-02-2018 21:39:08 0d 0h 16m 45s 4/4 PING WARNING - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 118.81 ms

If this is normal you may want to increase the warning time to 200 as an example

Code: Select all

check_command                   check_ping!200.0,20%!500.0,60%

what is your current check_command definition?

[kwhogster]

OOPS

check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60%

I forgot to change it.

As I stated before

If this is normal you may want to increase the warning time to 200 as an example

Code: Select all

check_command                   check_ping!200.0,20%!500.0,60%

I made the correction.

Then I went on to my vCenter and found all my nics reverted back to 100 MBs they were at 1000 MBs
My Cisco switch set all the ports to 100 MBs they all were 1000 before then when we looked at the config it only supports 10/100 do not know how everything was 1 GBs and now only 100
waiting on a replacement switch

Will post after that change is made.

Thanks
