Hi!
I try it:
http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Pl ... hp/details
In command line is okay: "Compaq/HP Agent Check: overall system state OK"
But in nagios output: (null)
Code: Select all
define command {
command_name check_hp
command_line $USER1$/check_hp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C public -v 2
}
define service {
use generic-service
host_name hp_proliant
service_description HP STATUS
check_command check_hp
}
What is wrong?
G.

The check_hp file is not for nagios. Need for example a shell script.
Can anyone send a script to it?

So, the following command works from the cli:
Code: Select all
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_hp -H <Hostaddress> -C public -v 2
Correct?
Have you attempted to run the command from the cli as user "nagios", or just as root?

I tried to run as nagios user:
Code: Select all
sudo -u nagios ./check_hp -H 10.10.10.115 -C public -v 2
Then it was correctly. I got the response from HP server.
In Webinterface output: (null)
Why is it?

Most likely this is due to permissions on the file. Can you "ls -lva [path/to/file]"

the file permission:
Code: Select all
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_hp rwxrwxr-x root root
Do I try to set it to nagios.nagios?
(I will try it...)

Try nagios.apache, if that does not work, try nagios.nagios. It should not be root.root as the web interface will not execute it as root.

Can you "su" to the nagios user and try executing the plugin from the command line with the values you would be using for the check?

Code: Select all
# su - nagios
This account is currently not available.
Because nagios has nologin by default.
But it gets output, it works in command line:
Code: Select all
sudo -u nagios ./check_hp -H 10.10.10.114 -C public -v 2
