Nagios Support Forum

Hello,

I am trying to enable graph for particular service, when click on graph button of any particular service while getting below error.

XML file "/var/lib/pnp4nagios/perfdata/example.com/ZOMBIE-PROCESSES.xml" not found. Read FAQ online

Also Xml and rrd files are not created automatically. Please suggest me on the same.

Thanks,
Imran Khan.

Could you post a sample of the output from this command when run via the command line? Also do you have performance data processing enabled for these services?

Hello,

I am facing this issue with all the services. How to check performance data processing is enabled or not for these services?

NRPE configuration file:-
command[check_zombie_procs]=/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_procs -w 5 -c 10 -s Z

Service file:-
define service{
use generic-service ; Name of service template to use
host_name example.com
service_description ZOMBIE-PROCESSES
is_volatile 0
check_period 24x7
max_check_attempts 3
normal_check_interval 5
retry_check_interval 2
contact_groups abcgrp
notification_interval 200
notification_period 24x7
notification_options w,u,c,r
check_command check_nrpe!check_zombie_procs
}

Ran the below command on all Linux machine.
/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_procs -w 5 -c 10 -s Z
PROCS OK: 0 processes with STATE = Z

Command:-
define command{
command_name check_local_procs
command_line $USER1$/check_procs -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$ -s $ARG3$
}

Thanks,
Imran Khan.

Hello,

Any help?

Thanks,
Imran Khan.

It doesn't look like that check is returning performance data, you can check by going to a service that is using the plugin at Home > Services "Click on a service" and look for the section in the details table that shows "Performance Data:" Is there any listed there?

Hello,

Thanks for the reply.

Performance Data is showing empty in some services of all the servers. Please let me know how to enable this option for all the services to fix the mentioned error.

Thanks,
Imran Khan.

Can you give us an example of the type of checks without performance data (some checks do not return perfdata)?
Lets get a tail of the perfdata logs:

Are you using the vanilla bulk mode, or bulk mode with npcd?
What is the output of:

I am not sure, it is vanilla bulk mode, or bulk mode with npcd?
