NRPE agent running on XI, stops working properly

Post by dlukinski »

Hello XI Support

We've got NRPE (Linux) agents running on XI machines
After 5.5 Upgrades they've stopped working properly: CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake.

- How to fix this?

Thank you

What is the version of the agent? If it's version 2, try running the check_nrpe command adding the "-2" option to force nrpe v2. If this resolves the problem then either make this change permanent or update the agent to version 3.
