His guide is good. I recommend it.

NRPE version is not that important right now. You CAN run plugins with NRPE, which will greatly expand the functionality of it. Can you try to CPU check now that we have the nsc cleaned up a little?

Unfortunately it now switched to "UNKNOWN: No handler for that command"
- This check (and another 2 with same result):
check_nrpe!nagiosxi40!CheckDriveSize -a ShowAll MaxWarn=50G MaxCrit=100G CheckAll!!!!!!

Let's test from the command line before we try to set up a check command.

Mine for example:

Mine for example:

Code: Select all

[root@xi libexec]# ./check_nrpe -H 192.168.x.x -c checkcpu
OK: CPU load is ok.|'total 5m'=5%;80;90 'total 1m'=4%;80;90 'total 5s'=9%;80;90

[root@fikc-nagxidev01 libexec]# ./check_nrpe -H 10.x.x.91 -c checkcpu
NRPE: Command 'checkcpu' not defined
[root@fikc-nagxidev01 libexec]#

Remote client (0.3.9) reports that "it seem to doing fine"

I've tested the original NSC.ini file you first uploaded with NSClient 0.3.9.330 and when I try your command: I get: Something is not right.

Can you please re-post your current NSC.ini file.

Is this the only .ini file in your NSClient++ directory?

Thank you, finally got this one working with 0.4.3 client (your site has client version 5 mentioned in some checks, must be some VERY BETA?)
Have multiple CPU and RAM checks working already and proceeding futher

We're advertising to use NSClient 5.x? Can you point me to those documents? To the best of my knowledge it's not been tested against our stuff.

Not you, box293 has it on his web-site (extra performance and counters checks)
- Believed I was replying to box293 (some other 3rd party Nagios guys has 0.5 client links on their web-sites too..)

I haven't seen this. Can you provide us with URL links to those sites?
