as I had stated, we are not familiar with the plugin, you need to test it to see if it works from the Windows command line, if you cannot successfully do that, I would try something different.

It needs to run SUCCESSFULLY, the screenshots are errors

This could be parsed and turned into a plugin if you added some logic.

PS C:\Program Files\NSClient++\scripts> C:\Program Files\NSClient++\scripts\Check_reg.ps1

lmiltchev wrote:I will give you a very simple example of a PS script that returns 0 or 2 exit codes (OK or CRITICAL).

example.ps1

Code: Select all

$LastExitCode = 0
$output = ""
$crit = (Get-Date).AddDays(-1).toString("yyyy-M-dd")

$MyTimeStamp = Get-Item c:\TEMP\test1.txt | Foreach {$_.LastWriteTime}
$MyTimeStamp = $MyTimeStamp.toString("yyyy-M-dd")

$Message = "The timestamp on my file is: $MyTimeStamp"

if ($MyTimeStamp -lt $crit)
    {
        $LastExitCode = 2
        echo "Critical: $Message"
        exit 2
    } else {
        $LastExitCode = 0
        echo "OK: $Message"
        exit 0
    }

In the nsclient.ini

Code: Select all

check_timestamp = cmd /c echo scripts\example.ps1; exit $LastExitCode | powershell.exe -command -

Testing from the CLI on the Nagios XI server:
1. Checking a file older than one day.

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H x.x.x.x -c check_timestamp
Critical: The timestamp on my file is: 2018-4-27
echo $?
2

2. Checking the updated file (newer than one day).

example02.PNG

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H x.x.x.x -c check_timestamp
OK: The timestamp on my file is: 2018-7-13
echo $?
0

Hope this helps.
