check_nrpe

[nebblkshts]

NO that did not

[rkennedy]

Did you run the following after making the change?

Code: Select all

pkill -9 nagios
sudo service nagios3 start

What error do you receive when trying to run the command? Can you run the command manually over the CLI?

[nebblkshts]

sudo: $/check_nrpe: command not found

[Box293]

You'll need to execute the command in the location that check_nrpe is in or directly reference it:
For example:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe

/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe is your command. Type the arguments after that.

[nebblkshts]

Code: Select all

sudo /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe  -H '$HOSTADDRESS$' -t 30 -c '$ARG1$' '$ARG2$'

I get: "Invalid host name '$'

[hsmith]

That's what Nagios uses. From the command line, you need to type in in the format of

Code: Select all

/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H 172.16.0.1 -t 60

or something similar. Didn't you have a working test from the command line earlier in this post?

Found it ... "/usr/lib/nagios/plugins"

Ran it and "OK: physical memory: 12.7G|'physical memory %'=79%;80;90 'physical memory'=12.66G;12.71;14.3;0;15.89"

[nebblkshts]

Ok, Sorry did not realize I needed to update that.

Code: Select all

sudo ./check_nrpe  -H LyncFE1 -t 60

I (0,4,1,105 2014-04-28) seem to be doing fine...

[hsmith]

So if you run ./check_nrpe -H LYNCFE2 -c CheckMem -a MaxWarn=80% MaxCrit=90% ShowAll type=physical it works, you stated earlier.

This is your service definition:

Code: Select all

define service {
use infra-trivial-service
host_name LYNCFE2
service_description Memory Usage
check_command check_nrpe!CheckMem!-a MaxWarn=80% MaxCrit=90% ShowAll type=physical
}

This looks good.

This is your check_nrpe command:

Code: Select all

command_line                             $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -t 30 -c '$ARG1$' '$ARG2$'

I can't see a reason this wouldn't be working right now. Everything should be getting passed correctly. Can you please upload a screenshot of the error you are getting in the GUI?
