Nagios return status unknow

Post by PhumeleleSJose96 »

Hi
I install Nagios on CentOS to monitor some servers, and one of them is a TSM server.

I download a plugin written in bash when i execute it in command line it works.

/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_tsm db -v6
db - database utilization 42%, OK
and the return code of the batch script is 0 ( from the command echo $? )

So the script work fine, and return 0 that mean a OK status in nagios, but the status still unknown, I really don't know why.

And i check logs in nagios, etc. It's not a problem of commands definition in commands.cfg or the declaration of service, because I copy the command that nagios send automatically every 5 min and the command works fine in command line, but still unknow status.

Definition of command:

define command{

command_name check_tsm_v6

command_line /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_tsm $ARG1$ -v6 $ARG2$ $ARG3$

}
Service declaration :

define service{

use generic-service

host_name tsm-test

service_description database utilization

check_command check_tsm_v6!db!85!90
}

I think that the error is on your nagios config
Check the help about your script : https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/P ... sm/details

if $ARG2$ et $ARG3$ is the value for critical and warning, you need to change your command from
/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_tsm $ARG1$ -v6 $ARG2$ $ARG3$
TO
/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_tsm $ARG1$ -v6 -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$
