As I asked in my previous response, Is using NSClient++ an option to check this folder, rather then checking by ssh?
Ok, I resolved the First problem on the Bitvise SSH Server (I Opened the Shell Access Type).
On Nagios now when I try to SSH in to the Server, it work properly.
Code: Select all
[root@nagiosfe /]# ssh [email protected]
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]
Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
C:\Users\xxx>
But when I do the Folder Watch Wizard on Nagios XI, the problem is still the same:
Code: Select all
UNKNOWN ERROR - execution of ssh 10.210.1.20 ls -lA Nagios -R resulted in an error 65280 -
The Service Code is the following (Nagios is a shared folder):
Code: Select all
check_file_size_age!-C 'ssh $HOSTADDRESS$ ls -lA Nagios' -F '[^\0]+' -r! -a 300,600
I tried to edit the code with the Following:
Code: Select all
check_file_size_age!-C 'ssh Nagios_test@$HOSTADDRESS$ ls -lA Nagios' -F '[^\0]+' -r! -a 300,600
But the error is still the same.
Any advice?

Once you are SSH'd on to the machine, what is output of ls?

'ls' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

It looks like your SSH session is looking for windows commands, and not linux. You'll need to alter your folder check accordingly, my guess is by using some kind of form of the dir command.
As I previously mentioned, this wizard is intended for Linux. The better use for what your doing may be using NSClient++.

How Can I use NSClient++ like this Folder Watch Wizard?
There is a Plugin that can watch into a Folder and tell me if some files in the folder are there for more like than 5 minutes?

Here are a some examples for using NSClient to watch for files in a folder, etc...

Here is another link to the document for installing NSClient on a windows host if you already have not installed it.

I'm using the
Check For Files Older Than Two Hours and is working (with check_nrpe).
I have a question: it is possible to EDIT the OUTPUT string?
By default are:
Code: Select all
Output when files matching criteria are found:
{3 Files Found}, found files: 3 > critical|'found files'=3;0;1
Output when NO files matching criteria are found:
{0 Files Found}|'found files'=0;0;1
I want to edit the 3 Files found, etc. It's impossible?
Thank you.

So you used something similar to this command on the page
tgreip posted:
Code: Select all
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H localhost -t 30 -c CHeckFiles -a path='/tmp' pattern=*.* filter=written < -2h' 'master-syntax={%total% Files Found}' MaxCrit=1
To change the last part you can see where the output
{3 Files Found} matches where the curly brackets are above here
'master-syntax={%total% Files Found}'.
To change this you can do anything really, remove the brackets and just have %total% if needed. Let us know if you need more help with this.
