Nagios commandline error

[raamardhani7]

Hi,

When I specify the process name in the script, there is no problem identifying the process status.
However, when I type process name on the command prompt instead of specify the process name in the script, script does not function properly.

Could you help resolving this matter?

Here is the command which I ran from the command prompt:
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H dalcpldd10 -t 30 -c check_init_service1 mccdev -n

Here is my simple script (check_init_service1) :
#!/bin/sh

STATE_OK=0
STATE_WARNING=1
STATE_CRITICAL=2
STATE_UNKNOWN=3

PROGNAME=$(basename $0)

#process name is mccdev
#PROCESS="mccdev"
PROCESS="$1"

TMP_OUTPUT="/tmp/process_check.txt"

PID_EXIST=`ps -ef | grep "$PROCESS" | egrep -v "grep|$PROGNAME"`
if [ -z "$PID_EXIST" ]
then
RETURN_STATUS=$STATE_CRITICAL
FINAL_STATUS="CRITICAL"
PERFORMANCE="NOT RUNNING"
FINAL_STATUS="$FINAL_STATUS|$PERFORMANCE"
else
ps -ef | grep "$PROCESS" | egrep -v "grep|$PROGNAME" > $TMP_OUTPUT
cat "$TMP_OUTPUT" | while read -r line
do
PID=`echo $line |awk '{print $2}'`
PID_STATUS=`echo $line |awk '{print $9}'`
if [[ "$PID_STATUS" == "db2sysc" ]]
then
RETURN_STATUS=$STATE_OK
FINAL_STATUS="OK"
PERFORMANCE="$PROCESS RUNNING"
FINAL_STATUS="$FINAL_STATUS|$PERFORMANCE"
fi
done

fi

if [ -f $TMP_OUTPUT ]
then
/bin/rm -f $TMP_OUTPUT
fi

echo "$FINAL_STATUS"
exit $RETURN_STATUS

How is "check_init_service1" defined in the "nrpe.cfg" (or "common.cfg") file? What are the permissions of the script?

[raamardhani7]

check_init_service1 script's permission is 777 and owned by root:system

Check is defined in the following way:

Code: Select all

command[check_init_service1]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_init_service1

[lmiltchev]

You need to pass the process as an argument (i.e. "mccdev"), correct? Change your command from this:

Code: Select all

command[check_init_service1]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_init_service1

to this:

Code: Select all

command[check_init_service1]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_init_service1 $ARG1$

and restart nrpe (xinetd) on the client. Let us know if this helped.

Hi,
When I specify the process name in the script, there is no problem identifying the process status.
However, when I type process name on the command prompt instead of specify the process name in the script, script does not function properly.

Can you show us examples of both of these? I'm trying to understand where y our error is at, and it sounds like it's in the plugin you posted.

Hi Team,

You can close this thread, my fault I didn't added that $ARG1$ in the nrpe.cfg, now it is added and the script is returning the exact results. thanks for your continuous help.
