This particular issue seems to happen often... as it is described under the Check WMI Plus FAQ page.

I wonder if you have some intermittent connectivity/network issues as your syntax looks fine and your check only fails sometimes...

Most servers we check are in the same server room so you can imagine this can't really be a network issue i guess?

Can you run the following commands and show us the output?
Code: Select all
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_wmi_plus.pl --version
grep "version=" /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_wmi_plus.ini | head -1

I notice the workers are using an older version of check_wmi_plus.

I updated the check_wmi_plus on the workers in question, i haven't gotten any errors these past hours. i'll update soon to confirm this worked. They are all using version 1.58.

After updating check_wmi_plus this error hasn't shown up. I think the different versions were the problem. Seems to be fixed, topic may close.
