Service check MSSQL Instance

[dazzlerellis]

Hey does anyone know how to check service with service name similar to MSSQL$NAME
I am running command
$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c CheckServiceState -a ShowAll $ARG1$

I've read many posts abouts using double dollars, triple backslashes etc but they seem to be outdated as none seem to work with latest nsclient.

Many thanks this is the last check I need to solve to finish migration to XI, thanks in advance.

Just tested to verify and this worked in $ARG1$

Code: Select all

MSSQL\$NAME

Thanks sure I tried that but will test again once we are off the old monitoring.
Is the bug still around where the test fails but actual check works I wonder.

I'm not sure what you are referring to.
