How to trigger Event_handler execution on WARNING?

[dlukinski]

Re-configured nagios-side

client side script does not run on WARNING (got the condition right now)

Zipped NSclient ini and client-side CMD file attached.

I think you might need to change this line

Code: Select all

diskcleanup1=scripts\\custom\\diskcleanup1.cmd

to this

Code: Select all

diskcleanup1=scripts\custom\diskcleanup1.cmd

then restart

then I would dry running the command from the nagios server to verify it runs

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H "IP_ADDRESS" -p 5666 -c diskcleanup1

If that runs then your event handler should run ad well

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/diskcleanup.sh WARNING IP_ADDRESS

Finally, if both of those run it should work if you have that event handler specified in the service and it return a warning.

If it isn't running on the remote server, you may need to look in the nsclient.log file for clues to what is erroring.

This error is coming form trying to find the diskcleanup1.cmd file I think

can you also see the nsclient.log and share that

When using an external script, you have to have a setting in the wrappings section so NSClient++ knows how to execute it.
Edit your nsclient.ini file and under this section

Code: Select all

[/settings/external scripts/wrappings]

Add this

Code: Select all

cmd = scripts\\%SCRIPT% %ARGS%

Save the file and restart NSClient++

After the change the agent should know how to execute the cmd file.
Let us know if it works for you.

Another option is to change the script to a .bat file and update the command definition in the ini file.
