Check_nt is not taking correct memory(RAM) Value

[CentricIT]

Hi ,

check_nt plugin is not giving us a correct memory (RAM) value on our Nagios.

While checking the RAM memory usage, we are using the MEMUSE keyword in our check_nt plugin. it's not taking the actually RAM memory from the Nagios clients it's taking an extra 50% of RAM memory with the actual memory. Due to this issue, we are not able to monitor our servers correctly.

Below command, we are using for the memory usage

$USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -s "MEMUSE" -p 12489 -v -w 90 -c 95

kindly check and share with us the solution for it.

Regards,
CentricIT

MEMUSE reports all memory, including paged, etc..

Here is a doc showing you how to switch to use a different check including only physical memory
