Thats the same I asked. How to create command through check_command option while creating service. I have checked the usage /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_win_net_usage.sh -H OSLMS003 -p 12489 -s **** -i " Broadcom BCM5709C NetXtreme II GigE (NDIS VBD Client)" -o KB working fine. But how to deal with this while creating service.

2: Ok fine let me try creating command as suggested first, will get back to you in case of any issues.

3: I have created the command now by name check_win_net_usage with syntax /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_win_net_usage.sh -H OSLMS003 -p 12489 -s ****** n -i " Broadcom BCM5709C NetXtreme II GigE (NDIS VBD Client)" -o KB and saved the configuration and activate. Still this command is not coming under check_command option while creating service. Kindly suggest.


4: Hi,
I have created the service now, the only problem now is that in graph its showing only 0 KB at the time, seems not fetching real data. I have used the ethernet names as Broadcom BCM5709C NetXtreme II GigE (NDIS VBD Client) from the concerned Windows Server. Please suggest.

Did you apply the configuration? try doing that so the command gets written and then try and create the service.

Also, if you want to be able to use this command with other boxes, you could create it to use arguments.

I'm not sure. As I stated, I have not used this plugin personally. Give it a few minutes(10-20) and see if the graph shows data.

Aside from giving it time, as bandit mentioned, have you tried running the command via cli and seeing if that outputs the data you are looking for? You may just need to tweak a few things, and it is generally easier to do via cli then modify your command definition.

Hi,
Even through commandline also the result is 0 KB always. Please advise, still under service graph too there is no real figure captured.

PFB the results even if I used eth0 as network interface for the concerned windows servers.

I'm sure I'll need something like this, so let me play around with it a little and see if it works for me.

Thanks for the update,please do consider this as an urgent requirement.Also let me know how I can prioritized this, if reqd. may be thru opening the request thru some case to Nagios or something.

Even if I am not supplying interfact details, its resulting same output.

Network OK - 0 Bytes received/sec, 0 Bytes sent/sec|bytes_in=0;bytes_out=0

Able to see many other plugins under http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Pl ... idth/page3 like ck_iftraffic64 for monitoring network interfact traffic of windows server. Could you please suggest whether the existing script/plugin check_win_net_usage.sh would solve the purpose someway or we need to think using some other option.

Anyone looking?

Just making sure you realize, I am not a nagios employee, just another user like yourself trying to help out. As I said, I'll play around with it today and see if I can figure it out on my system, but am currently working on another issue myself.

[HAL]

Ok Fine, thanks for the information.

HAL, are you sure there is traffic in/out on the interfaces in question?
