[Help] check_process_memory.sh configuration

[sreinhardt]

Did you have a user logged into Windows at that time? It looks like the query went correctly, but you may not have had explorer running as it was not consuming any memory. We should be able to check the nscp.exe binary like you initially posted with:

Code: Select all

./check_nt -H 192.168.160.129 -p 12489 -v COUNTER -l "\\Process(nscp.exe)\\Working Set"

Hi sreinhardt,

i got the same output :
" [root@nagios libexec]# ./check_nt -H 192.168.160.129 -p 12489 -v COUNTER -l "\\Process(nscp.exe)\\Working Set"
0
[root@nagios libexec]# "

And users have logged into windows.

Open the Performance Monitor, right-click on the perf counter and see what is the "exact" name under the "Data" tab. Most probably, you will need to run:

Code: Select all

./check_nt -H 192.168.160.129 -p 12489 -v COUNTER -l "\\Process(explorer)\\Working Set"

instead of

Code: Select all

./check_nt -H 192.168.160.129 -p 12489 -v COUNTER -l "\\Process(explorer.exe)\\Working Set"

Example:

Code: Select all

[root@testbox libexec]# ./check_nt -H 192.168.x.x -s password -p 12489 -v COUNTER -l "\\Process(explorer)\\Working Set"
99512300
[root@testbox libexec]# ./check_nt -H 192.168.x.x -s password -p 12489 -v COUNTER -l "\\Process(firefox)\\Working Set"

Hi all,
I know this thread is very old but my comment could help someone now.

The error is encountered because in the plugin script the default check_nt port is set to 1248 instead of 12489.
That means that if you don't specify the port number with -p then it defaults to the wrong one and you get a "Connection refused" therefore the rest of the script will fail.

Moreover bc does not support -r switch anymore so take it out.

Thanks for the feedback, Pitone_Maledetto!
