What command did you execute to generate this error?

I am guessing you do not have the syntax quite right. Here is an example:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ping -H 10.1.1.1 -w 1000,5% -c 1500,10%
PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 0.43 ms|rta=0.425000ms;1000.000000;1500.000000;0.000000 pl=0%;5;10;0

Change 10.1.1.1 to be the appropriate IP address.

In a service definition, this would likely be something like:

Code: Select all

check_ping!1000,5%!1500,10%

Assuming that you are using the stock check_ping command from commands.cfg

It works now
Now I have a question, whether it is an option, yes. that like a script Nagios will not work, then we can send the script does not work. And how Ping is the machine is turned on Nagios, but it does not work, that does not work Nagios

Could you please clarify this? I'm a bit confused on what you're asking.

service nagios3 status | mail -s "Nadzios works" <address>
I wrote a short script to 7 am check the status of Nagios, and I would like to detect if something is wrong status Nagios "foul"

The method you describe should work, you just need to write a script that will understand the output of the service command. Running that on a cron every X minutes should be enough.

[rumarcin11]

I understand

Did you have any further questions, or are we good to mark this as resolved?

[rumarcin11]

Already all work for me, as it should
