I assume you have a script named "smarpfa.vbs" in the NSClient++ script's folder. Modify the nsclient.ini file by doing the following:
Under the
[/settings/external scripts/wrapped scripts] section
(VISUAL BASIC WRAPPING), change this line:
Code: Select all
vbs = cscript.exe //T:60 //NoLogo scripts\\lib\\wrapper.vbs smartpfa.vbs
to this:
Code: Select all
vbs = cscript.exe //T:60 //NoLogo scripts\\lib\\wrapper.vbs %SCRIPT% %ARGS%
Under the
[/settings/external scripts/scripts] section, add the following line:
Code: Select all
check_raid=cscript.exe //T:60 //NoLogo scripts\smartpfa.vbs $ARG1$
Restart the nsclient++ service, so that the changes can take effect.
From the nagios server, run from the command line:
Code: Select all
./check_nrpe -H 172.25.1.101 -c check_raid -a <place your arguments here, wrapped in single quotes>
Hope this helps.

Are you able to run this Powershell script on the Windows server manually? Looks like it may be an issue on the windows end now.

It would seem you did not define your check_raid as lmiltchev defined, this should no longer be executing the powershell script, but the smartpfa.vbs. Please follow his steps above and test again.

Hmm, i didnt do anything except i restart the NSClient++. I didnt change nothing ( it was exactly like lmiltchev sasy to be ) in nsclient.ini file. And when i execute the command i have the following:
root@nagios:/usr/local/nagios/libexec# ./check_nrpe -H 172.25.1.101 -c check_raid
OK : No PFA/S.M.A.R.T errors detected
root@nagios:/usr/local/nagios/libexec#
I dont know what arguments to put . I just execute this line. "./check_nrpe -H 172.25.1.101 -c check_raid "

Actually, that looks perfect! The results are what I would expect to see. Are you looking for something different?

Hi sreinhardt,
sorry for late reply, I have other high priority problems and tnx for helping me. Any way, i dont know way i chose this plug in. Because in the description of
this plugin says that it is for "Powershell script to check HP SmartArray RAID status on Windows". So what does "HP SmartArray means" ? But any way we are using Dell PC everywhere (with windows on it), is this plugin give me true result or not? And i would like to suggest some plugin that will gave me the health of the disk or SMART status. Im a lost a little bit for everything here and i will need a little help for this job.

You need be sure to read what the plugin actually does before spending 3 pages trying to implement something that will not work in the first place... HP Smart Arrays WILL NOT work with your dell systems. Please verify the plugins you are trying to use before downloading them and asking for help. Once you find a plugin which will function with your specific hardware and systems then we can help you to implement it.
