NRDS - New checks are not coming through as unconfigured obj

Post by Box293 »

I've been playing with NRDS using Windows 32bit client.

It was working well when I first set it up. I created a config that did not have a hostname defined so I could use the same config on multiple servers. This worked fine.

I added a couple of extra commands and they came through as unconfigured objects.

Since then I've tried adding some more commands but they never come through as unconfigured objects. I can run the scheduled task on the client and the config.ini gets the updated commands however they never appear as an unconfigured object.

I have found that when this occurs, the existing commands that had been added as an object previously are no longer receiving updates. I observed this because I got distracted and when I looked at it a couple of hours later the configured objects had a "Last Check" of when I updated the config. If I go and change the config again to remove the new commands, once the scheduled task runs on the windows box, the configured objects start receiving updates.

To test, I've tried just duplicating a working command with a new name but it still doesn't come through as an unconfigured object. For example:

Code: Select all

command[Memory_Load] = $PLUGIN_DIR$\memload_nrpe_nt.exe 95 100
command[Memory_Load_Test] = $PLUGIN_DIR$\memload_nrpe_nt.exe 95 100
I'm not sure what other information I can give you, are there log files on the Nagios XI box that I can look at to determine any errors that is causing this unusual behavior?

The NRDS_Win Config.ini file shows where the log file is being created

LOG_FILE=C:\Program Files\Nagios\NRDS_Win\logs\NRDS_Debug.log

The results of the plugin can be found in the log file which will help determine if the plugin is running correctly.
