No graphing for HPUX NRPE checks

[benhank]

Hey guys, let me start by saying that my knowledge of NRPE and HPUX is magically deliciously small.
I have a few servers running hpux. with the following configurations:

and

Capture2.PNG

they inherit config info from this service template:

All of which are set up to process perfdata.
as I can only upload 3 attachments Ill continue in another post:

to continue:

here are two identical servers, one server is displaying perfdata, but the other doesn't:

(on a side note the gauges arent displaying as well)
and

.


here is my nrpe cfg file:

nrpe.cfg

How can I get the checks to display perfdata?"
Thanks guys!

Does the "HPUX disk usage" check on "EPICPROD.Healthone.org" host return perfdata? Click on the service under "Service Detail", go to the "Advanced" tab, and show us a screenshot of this page.
Also, click on the service under the CCM, then click on "Run Check Command" button under the "Common Settings" tab, and show us the output.

Not every plugin returns perfdata. It seems like yours doesn't.

Some plugins have a flag that you need to pass in order to get the perfdata output. Are you using the same plugin on your production and failover servers?

Please check if:

1. You are using the same plugin on both servers
2. Your commands are defined in the same way (check nrpe.cfg and/or common.cfg files).

yup we are using the same plugin for both servers. the server checks are controlled with services and service templates that have been associated with the corresponding host-group.
so:
Service points to -->Hostgroup which contains ---Hosts.

What are the perfdata flags for HPUX related nrpe checks? Or Is there any reference info can you point me to that will help me understand what I may be missing?

Is the plugin exactly the same that is installed on the remote servers?

I know you are using check_nrpe for both, but they are running plugins on the remote side "check_hpux_disk" and one isn't returning performance data

Can you upload the plugin that you are using on EPICPROD.Healthone.org on the forum or provide us with a download link?

Also, show us how the "check_hpux_disk" command is defined on the client (remote box).

My collegue told me that I uploaded the wrong NRPE.cfg file. I have included the correct on in the zip file, with all sensitive data scrubbed .

Ben,

We don't need to see the check_nrpe plugin, we need the following:

the plugin that you are using on EPICPROD.Healthone.org on the forum or provide us with a download link?

Also, show us how the "check_hpux_disk" command is defined on the client (remote box).

The command definition will be in the nrpe.cfg on EPICPROD.Healthone.org
