MSSQL SHAREPOINT CRITICAL 10-26-2015 04:13:11 0d 0h 0m 7s 1/3 MSSQL$SHAREPOINT$: Not found


adds a dollar $ sign to it

strange that a dollar sign causing a problem here

Thoughts

Try $$ in the check_command line:

No does not work

It adds a Dollar sign $ to the end of the service comes up NOT FOOUND

Sorry for the double post I forgot this went to page 2 late night lol

check_command check_nt!SERVICESTATE!-d SHOWALL -l 'MSSQL$$SHAREPOINT'

That worked

looks like the no backslash seemed to do the trick

I will change my other services and post results

Thanks

Using second Dollar Sign $$ and placing in single quotes does work.

Thanks for your help

Problem solved

Note this should be somewhere in the documentation in the define services section would be very helpful

Already been in the documentation, just maybe not obvious:

Also, if you want to pass a dollar sign ($) on the command line, you have to escape it with another dollar sign.

I'll be closing this thread now, but feel free to open another if you need anything in the future!
