Nsclient++ Check_Mem

[tenda21]

command check_nt!MEMUSE! duplicates information
ex:
I have 12 G RAM and display 24

Can you show us the output of the check command? Also, on the windows system please show the output of running the following from it's CLI:

Code: Select all

wmic OS get TotalVisibleMemorySize /Value

[tenda21]

Memory usage: total:32541,24 Mb - used: 20599,93 Mb (63%) - free: 11941,31 Mb (37%)

TotalVisibleMemorySize=16661904

I have windows Server 64Bits

By default, I believe nsclient also includes the pagefile. Could you provide the service and command definitions?

[tenda21]

nsclient-sample?

[tenda21]

command check_nt!MEMUSE! G -w 80 -c 90

[FTL]

As stated the command check_nt counts page file and other bits as total memory.

use check_nrpe with NSClient++ and use the "physical" parameter

eg:

Code: Select all

check_nrpe -H ip -p 5666 -c checkMEM -a MaxWarn=x% MaxCrit=x% type=physical

This will get you the info you are requiring for just actual phyical memory

nagios display this error: CHECK_NRPE: Received 0 bytes from daemon.

[FTL]

Please check your nsclient.ini file on the server you are monitoring for the following; which you will find in the "NRPE setting for Protocol options" section

Code: Select all

; COMMAND ARGUMENT PROCESSING - This option determines whether or not the we will allow clients to specify arguments to commands that are executed.

and set it to

Code: Select all

allow arguments = true

[tenda21]

I make modifications and navio display error Exception processing request: Request contained arguments (not currently allowed, check the allow arguments option).
