Nagios Support Forum

Good morning everyone,

I have nagios installed and the disk alert does not appear in yellow (warning) and I do not know the reason.

In the server checked I have in the file nrpe
command [check_disk] = / usr / lib64 / nagios / plugins / check_disk / -w 40% -c 20%

In the nagios server I have the verification:
define service {
use generic-service
host_name XXXXX.XX
service_description Free space on / dev / sda1
check_command check_nrpe! check_disk -w 40% -c 20%
}

In nagios it appears as:
DISK OK - free space: / 39439 MiB (20.40% inode = 98%):

And a warning should be displayed.

What is wrong with me?

The problem persist

Your format looks correct; Here are some sample disk checks, a few of which use the official nagios-plugins check_disk plugin:

This looks malformed. There should be no / after the check_disk binary.

Your NRPE command definition is also not accepting arguments -- you've hard-coded 40% and 20% here: When, based on your Nagios service definition (I'm assuming some things about your check_nrpe command definition): The arguments you're passing to the check_disk command, as it exists in your NRPE configuration, will be discarded. NRPE accepts args for commands invoked via check_nrpe like so: See this knowledge base article for some examples:
