Nagios XI Alert for low or no bandwidth

[tgriep]

There is a typo in the example from before, try this and see if it works for you.

Code: Select all

$USER1$/negate -s $USER1$/check_rrdtraf_bits -f /var/lib/mrtg/$ARG1$ -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$ -l $ARG4$

[rbuckle]

OUTPUT: OK - Current BW in: 6.90Mbps Out: 74.20Mbps|in=6.902938Mb/s;20.00;30.00 out=74.203720Mb/s;20.00;30.00

Still doesn't seem to work right

[tgriep]

Can you run the check in a command prompt on the server, with and without the negate command and post how you ran the check and it's output?

Does this now look correct to you?

[tgriep]

Lets go back to the unmodified check, run those and post the output.

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/negate -s /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_rrdtraf -f /var/lib/mrtg/10.0.0.27_5.rrd -w 2 -c 1 -l M
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_rrdtraf -f /var/lib/mrtg/10.0.0.27_5.rrd -w 2 -c 1 -l M

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/negate -s /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_rrdtraf -f /var/lib/mrtg/10.0.0.27_5.rrd -w 200 -c 100 -l M

Well, it looks like negate is working correctly but the modified plugin is not working.
We are going to have to get the developers to look at is and modify it for your needs.

In the meantime, you could check our exchange site so see if there is another plugin that may work for you.
