You need 2 warning and 2 criticals defined because it's returning for RAM and SWAP, try this:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp_mem.pl -H HOSTNAME -C STRING -w 99,99 -c 100,100 -f
I think the second command having issues is a Solaris SNMP specific issue, I'm wondering if you installed net-snmp on there if it would work.

I am assuming that you have your system configured for SNMP version 2. If so, you need to run the command with the -2 option like below.

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp_mem.pl -H HOSTNAME -C STRING -2 -w 99,99 -c 100,100 -f

Thank you tgriep for the suggestion.

It worked with a warning message.

Code: Select all

Argument "noSuchInstance" isn't numeric in addition (+) at /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp_mem.pl line 477.
Ram : 90%, Swap : 0% : ; OK | ram_used=120135920;132873559;134215716;0;134215716 swap_used=0;33218884;33554428;0;33554428
How can I modify this command in Nagios XI through GUI?

But for CPU check it is giving back an error when executed using -2 option.

Code: Select all

Can't find CPU usage information : UNKNOWN

I feel that Sun's SNMP daemon that is running on the server isn't 100% compatible with those plugings.
You can try and see if you can install net-snmp's daemon on the server or the plugins will have to be modified to work with Sun's SNMP daemon.
