Code: Select all
script written by: karim buzdar
purpose: nagios check for kannel stuck
Date : dec 8, 2013
/etc/init.d/kannel status | grep -i -E "SMS: received" | awk '{ print $3 }' > kannel_temp_1.txt
/etc/init.d/kannel status | grep -i -E "SMS: received" | awk '{ print $7 }' > kannel_temp_2.txt
/etc/init.d/kannel status | grep -i -E "SMS: received" | awk '{ print $3 }' > kannel_temp_3.txt
/etc/init.d/kannel status | grep -i -E "SMS: received" | awk '{ print $7 }' > kannel_temp_4.txt
recvsms1=$(cat kannel_temp_2.txt)
sentsms2=$(cat kannel_temp_3.txt)
recvsms2=$(cat kannel_temp_4.txt)
if [ $sentsms1 == $sentsms2 ] && [ $recvsms1 == $recvsms2 ];
then
exitcode=0
statustxt=ok
else
exitcode=2
statustxt=critical
fi
echo "$exitcode - $statustxt"
my script works fine on client machine but returns wrong information (always critical) in nagios.
please help me out.

Please use code wraps when you are placing code in your messages. We also need to know what output nagios is giving you with the critical state return. It sounds like this is a permissions issue, likely the plugin requires root access and NRPE is executing it as nagios.

Can you post the full contents of the script. Also, can you post what txt is returned when you run from the command line, like so:
Code: Select all
su nagios -c '/usr/local/nagiosxi/libexec/YOURSCRIPT.sh;echo $?'
Thanks

Please when you post code wrap it in code tags so it is easier to read. I have made the change for you this time.
As for your issue, you don't want to echo "$exitcode", you want do to as scottwilkerson said and put
at the end of your code.
And can you please respond to scottwilkerson's other question?
