Nagios Support Forum

HI Team,

I'm trying to download the Nagios agent for AIX, however the link to download pre-compiled binaries from the attached document isn't working. Please suggest.

http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... Nagios.pdf

Working just fine right now. What error are you receiving?

COuld you please post the link to AIX agent for Nagios.

The second link does appear to be broken. Here is the working link: http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... ies.tar.gz

In the future if clicking a link does not work, try typing in the URL by hand and it should be fine.

EDIT: I've gone ahead and fixed the link. Should be updated shortly.

Do we have an uninstall procedure as well for AIX agent. We need this to get an approval from client to start the POC.

The agent tarball is just bins and configs sorted by paths from /.
Just make note of where you put them, though you could write a script to remove them as well.

Hi Team,

I have installed the AIX binaries on our AIX box as suggested in the below link.

http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... Nagios.pdf

I have added the Nagios XI server Ip to the allowed hosts in nrpe.cfg, now when I try to connect and execute a plugin from my nagios XI box we get a message saying ' Could not complete the SSL Handshake." We have restarted the nrpe service multiple times now.

ps: I believe the nrpe service is currently running under inetd as the process number is coming as 1. please suggest.

I have managed to get the connection for nrpe now, but not able to send any arguments from the command line. I have chnaged the dont_blame_nrpe to 1 and retsted the service, Now I get the message 'CHECK_NRPE: Received 0 bytes from daemon. Check the remote server logs for error messages."

I have come across some posts which said I have to run the below command after an untar of nrpe binaries.

./configure --enable-command-args

However I dont see any file which says ./configure from the binaries given in the AIX-5.3-nrpe-2.12-binaries.tar.gz

Are you seeing any output in the system log of the AIX server from NRPE? To enable logging to your syslog follow this:

http://wp.shaibn.com/nrpe-set-to-debug1 ... centos-5-5

Can you show the command you are currently trying to run against the AIX system?

We have manged to solve this.

Apperently the nrpe binary we got from the location specified in the below link, is not compiled with --enable-command-args. So we weren't able to pass arguments from nagios console to the remote server. we have now compiled a nrpe script with command arguments enabled & replaced the file. We are now able to pass the arguments from nagios console to nrpe.

Close this thread as solved.
