negate plugin doesn't seems to be working

[sureshkraj2012]

Hello Team,

I am trying to use negate plugin but I couldn't get expected result.

Am I doing something wrong? Please help me to resolve this issue.


[user1@nagios_server ~]$ sudo /usr/local/nagios/libexec/negate -w OK -c UNKNOWN -o UNKNOWN /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_mssql_health --server test.domain.local --username 'user2' --password 'password123' --mode latches-waits -warning 5 -critical 10
OK - 0.16 latches / sec have to wait | latch_waits_per_sec=0.16;5;10

Could you provide an example of the mysql without negate please, preferably with the exact same flags? Something like:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_mssql_health --server test.domain.local --username 'user2' --password 'password123' --mode latches-waits -warning 5 -critical 10

I get the same output when executing mssql plugin alone

Try this:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_mssql_health --server test.domain.local --username 'user2' --password 'password123' --mode latches-waits -warning 5 -critical 10
echo $?

Code: Select all

sudo /usr/local/nagios/libexec/negate -w OK -c UNKNOWN -o UNKNOWN -s /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_mssql_health --server test.domain.local --username 'user2' --password 'password123' --mode latches-waits -warning 5 -critical 10
echo $?

Here is the result

echo $?

sudo /usr/local/nagios/libexec/negate -w OK -c UNKNOWN -o UNKNOWN /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_mssql_health --server test.domain.local --username 'user2' --password 'password123' --mode latches-waits -warning 5 -critical 10

I guess it return status correctly. May be we need to configure in GUI (instead command line)?

[sureshkraj2012]

Yes. It return correct negate status in GUI.
