Sometimes the older version of that plugin has issues with VMWare and upgrading the plugin solved the issue.

First, login to the Nagios server as root and make a backup of the existing one by running the following.

Code: Select all

cp /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_esx3 /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_esx3.old

Then run the following to install a required Perl Module for the new plugin.

Code: Select all

yum install perl-Nagios-Plugin

Then download this updated plugin to your Nagios server and put it in folder the existing plugin is located in.
https://github.com/shinken-monitoring/p ... ck_esx3.pl
Make sure you name the plugin to the same name as the command definition.

Code: Select all

check_esx3

After it is downloaded, you will have to change the owner / permissions of the plugin by running the following

Code: Select all

chown nagios.nagios /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_esx3
chmod a+x /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_esx3

Wait until the server schedules and runs the check and see if the error is gone in the Nagios GUI.

If that's not what you are asking, I apologise.
