I copied the link incorrectly for the NRPE article. I did fix the previous posts but here it is.

Can you post the nrpe.cfg file from the vMA host? Also, show the full path to the "check_mem.sh" script on the vMA host.

find . -name check_mem.sh
do not find that file on the VMA host
I think it is on the Nagios host
see nrpe.cfg it is attached

nagios@tgcs017:/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects$ /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H 10.2.8.7 -t 30 -c check_mem -a ' -w 80% -c 90%'
NRPE: Command 'check_mem' not defined
Let's clarify this. You are running the above command on your nagios server against the VMA host (10.2.8.7). This means that the "check_mem" command must be defined in the nrpe.cfg file on the client AND the "check_mem.sh" must exist in the plugins directory on the client...
Run the following commands and show the output:
On the nagios server:
Code: Select all
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H 10.2.8.7 -t 30 -c check_users

The only plugin I see in the "/usr/local/nagios/libexec/" directory is "check_nrpe"... I doesn't seem that you have nagios plugins installed, unless they are in a different directory. None of the checks, defined in the nrpe.cfg on the the VMA host would work as you are missing the plugins (see below; in bold):
command[check_users]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_users -w 5 -c 10
command[check_load]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_load -w 15,10,5 -c 30,25,20
command[check_hda1]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 20% -c 10% -p /dev/hda1
command[check_zombie_procs]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_procs -w 5 -c 10 -s Z
command[check_total_procs]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_procs -w 150 -c 200
In order to monitor a remote machine via NRPE, you need to have both, the agent (NRPE), and plugins as the checks are executed on the client.

How to I install the plugins on
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 sp3
I tried this from the Nagios support site
vi-admin@tgkw002:~/tmp> sudo wget
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/sour ... .11.tar.gz
vi-admin's password:
--2016-08-17 18:47:07--

even after installing Nagios plugins
vi-admin@tgkw002:~/tmp/nagios-plugins-2.1.2> ls -la /usr/local/nagios/libexec
total 148
drwxrwxr-x 2 nagios nagios 4096 Aug 16 21:27 .
drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Aug 16 21:27 ..
-rwxrwxr-x 1 nagios nagios 137337 Aug 16 21:27 check_nrpe
vi-admin@tgkw002:~/tmp/nagios-plugins-2.1.2>
where did they go?
Also
On my Cento Os 7 it is working and do not have plugins installed there just the NRPE client.
SUSE is strange I think
On my Ubuntu 16.04.01 server where Nagios runs they are in /usr/lib/Nagios/plugins
