Not sure what is going on. I need to get this working and also, I have another one I need to get working as well.

Login to the huey server and add the following lines to the /etc/sudoers file on the remote servers.

Code: Select all

nagios ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_informix.sh
nagios ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/informix/bin/onstat *

then run the following to test and see if the plugin runs as the nagios user and post the output.

Code: Select all

su - nagios
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_informix.sh /usr/informix hueynet

It is passes, try running it from the Nagios server to see if it functions from there.

I got this

Code: Select all

[nagios@huey ~]$ /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_informix.sh /usr/informix hueynet
-bash: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_informix.sh: Permission denied
[nagios@huey ~]$

do I need to change the script to this
chmod 777 & chgrp nagios.nagios

Here is what the permission are now...

Code: Select all

[nagios@huey ~]$ ls -l /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_informix.sh
-rwxr-x---. 1 root root 684 Nov 19 12:35 /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_informix.sh

Run these commands again to set the permissions on that plugin again.

Code: Select all

chown nagios.nagios /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_informix.sh
chmod a+x /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_informix.sh

Posted: **Mon Nov 19, 2018 5:21 pm**

here is the output from the remote server.

Code: Select all

[nagios@huey ~]$ /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_informix.sh /usr/informix hueynet

IBM Informix Dynamic Server Version 12.10.FC8W2WE -- Updatable (Sec) -- Up 20 days 19:32:58 -- 1138808 Kbytes

Here is the output from the NAGIOS server.

Code: Select all

[root@nag libexec]# [nagios@huey ~]$ /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_informix.sh /usr/informix hueynet

-bash: [nagios@huey: command not found

-bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('
[root@nag libexec]#

Also when I run this from NAGIOS

Code: Select all

[root@nag libexec]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 192.168.1.42 -c check_informix -a '/usr/informix hueynet'
IBM Informix Dynamic Server Version 12.10.FC8W2WE -- Updatable (Sec) -- Up 20 days 19:37:43 -- 1138808 Kbytes
[root@nag libexec]#

Any thoughts?

I tested on all 3 remote servers and NAGIOS server after making those changes. And it seems to be good. Here is the output from the NAGIOS server

Code: Select all

[root@nag libexec]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 192.168.39.10 -c check_informix -a '/usr/informix louienet'

IBM Informix Dynamic Server Version 12.10.FC8W2WE -- On-Line (Prim) -- Up 23 days 16:34:54 -- 1204344 Kbytes
[root@nag libexec]#

Now what I need to do is add to nagios right? I have this in there already. I believe, I will send you a screenshot shortly...

The correct command to run on the nagios server to run the plugin on the remote server is this.

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 192.168.1.42 -c check_informix -a '/usr/informix hueynet'

which is your 3rd example in your post and it passed.

Your second example looks like you tried to run this as a command "[nagios@huey ~]$" which would fail as it is not valid.

Posted: **Mon Nov 19, 2018 5:44 pm**

I got the command to run on all 3 servers and NAGIOS. I went and enable the service that was in XI and here is the screenshot. What does the status of 'Unknown" mean" It should say "OK"
