Cool! That gives a valid result.

So the check_nt seems to be working. What could be the problem with that check_win_net_usage plugin?
Thank You,

I'm glad your issue has been resolved!

This is a third party plugin. We haven't tested it and we cannot guarantee that it is going to work well with Nagios. You will need to contact the developer of the plugin.

I will try aside some time to test it here today, but contacting the developer of it would be a good idea. It looks like it is just a wrapper script for what you just ran, essentially.

Additionally, the only test output from the plugin check_win_net_usage on the previous page had you checking "Test-PC" instead of the ip.

Hi Guys,sorry for my late response. Okay, we'll try to contact its developer.
@ lmitchev - No problem I understand.
@ slansing - Were you able to test this plugin out?
@ abrist - "Test-PC" will also resolve to its ip address so I think either is fine.
Thanks guys,
Arnel

You will have to delete the xml and rrd files associated to that service so it will get rebuilt using the new performance output in KB.
