How to use snmp

[tzviak1]

Hello,

I have added a linux box on the same network that im in. This box is already set with SNMP it is being reached from another monitoring system all on same network.

When i perform a check i get the following:

COMMAND: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp_storage_wizard.pl -H 10.3.4.5 -C
OUTPUT: Usage: check_snmp_storage [-v] -H <host> -C <snmp_community> [-2] | (-l login -x passwd [-X pass -L <authp>,<privp>]) [-p <port>] -m <name in desc_oid> [-q storagetype] -w <warn_level> -c <crit_level> [-t <timeout>] [-T pl|pu|bl|bu ] [-r -s -i -G] [-e] [-S 0|1[,1,<car>]] [-o <octet_length>] [-R <% reserved>]

Am i suppose to modify the command manually? I used the wizard.

The wizard should have put more in there, most specifically the version of SNMP and the SNMP community string, you may need to re-run the wizard..

I just did,

/ Disk Usage Unknown error - Usage: check_snmp_storage [-v] -H <host> -C <snmp_community> [-2]
CPU Usage Unknown error - put warning and critical info!
Memory Usage Unknown error - Usage: check_snmp_storage [-v] -H <host> -C <snmp_community> [-2]

That is what im seeing in the services status table.
The message below was from the service config test page its like it doesn't pass the arguments or something?

By chance does your community string have special chars like a ; $ or & ??

They may need to be escaped
