Hi Team,
Recently i have installed nrpe client in 2 machines with version (centOS Linux release 7.3.1611) and the Nrpe installed is nrpe-3.1.0 & nagios-plugin-2.2.1.
Here intermitently I am facing issues with the plugins only on that 2 servers stating Check_NRPE STATE CRITICAL:Socket timeout after 10 seonds and for ping it is giving as Critical - Plugin timed out.
Please find the attachement of screenshot and help me in fixing this.

Re: Nagios New Issue
Being that the Ping check is also timing out, have you verified that there are no network issues between Nagios Core and the monitored machine?
I can't imagine a situation where both ping and NRPE checks both intermittently fail at roughly the same time that cannot be traced to network issues.

Re: Nagios New Issue
Can you post us the result of ping from Nagios host to the remote server? I too suspect it's due to network issue between the hosts.
btw for me, i don't see the point of a ping check, as check-host-alive command already did that for host-state-checking. Am certainly intrigued to know if it's really necessarily in your case.
