Use check_snmp with multiple OID's
Posted: Thu May 19, 2011 11:59 am
The help for check_snmp says I can return metrics for more than one OID, for example:
This works fine and I get:
I now need to set warning and critical levels for each of these values because we have a scenario where we want warnings and critical notifications set at different thresholds for reads and writes.
I tried a few different combinations of the -w and -c switches including:
But I only every get a WARN or CRITICAL for the DiskReadBytesPerSecond. I have a test that purposely writes a large amount of data to the disk whilst keeping the reads very low but I can never trigger a WARN/CRITICAL for writes. It seems that only the first value is checked.
Is this possible or am I doing it wrong?
Is this possible?
Code: Select all
check_snmp -H 217.69.47.170 -P 2c -C public -o .1.3.6.1.4.1.9600.1.1.1.1.15.2.67.58 -o .1.3.6.1.4.1.9600.1.1.1.1.18.2.67.58 -l DiskReadBytesPerSecond -l DiskWriteBytesPerSecondCode: Select all
