Attaching, screenshot of CCM.
Pls. help me out with arguments... what & where, I have to pass the arguments. So that, using Test check command, I should see actual Memory.

Do you have a host selected for this check already? You need to define your config name as well.. For the ARG's fill them in as shown previously. Also, I see you are using XI, we thought you were using core this whole time due to you posting in the core forums. Please post in the XI forums next time. Moving..

Thanks...
Now, I can see correct Memory as below :-

Physical Memory Critical 5h 36m 26s 5/5 19/02/2013 05:06:48 CRITICAL: physical memory: Total: 2G - Used: 698M (34%) - Free: 1.32G (66%) > critical

But it shows, Critical. However, Total RAM :2G Used: 698M (34%) - Free: 1.32G (66%)

Tried Threshold, -w 80 -c 90.
Still showing critical.

Hey.

I would like to know what is your version of NSClient for a 2008 server ?

Thank you.

Baptiste

lafargeuser,

can you show the check command your using that's giving the wrong warning and critical?

are you using check_nrpe or check_nt?

Hartly,

I am using NSClient++-0.3.9-x64.msi


Yancy,

I am using check_nrpe
$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -t 30 -c $ARG1$ $ARG2$


CheckMEM -a MaxWarn=$ARG1$% MaxCrit=$ARG2$% ShowAll type=physical

What do you receive when you use the following from the Nagios command line?:

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 192.168.5.63 -c CheckMEM -a MaxWarn=5% MaxCrit=60% ShowAll type=physical
Connection refused or timed out

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 192.168.5.63 -c CheckMEM -a MaxWarn=80% MaxCrit=90% ShowAll type=physical
OK: physical memory: 687M|'physical memory %'=33%;80;90 'physical memory'=686.68MB;1638.04;1842.8;0;2047.55

However, RAM is 2 GB on the server.
I think its showing used memory. Along with, it should display actual RAM.

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 192.168.5.63 -c CheckMEM -a MaxWarn=5% MaxCrit=60% ShowAll type=physical
Connection refused or timed out

after running this command, is there any error in nsclient.log? Thanks,

-Yancy

Nope. I didn't see any error in nsclient.log , after running that command.
