unusual log nagios

Post by NAGOWNER92 »

Good morning,

i have found this line ( Oct 3 17:06:46 nagios1 logger: $ ) in my nagios.log while the normail line is ( Oct 7 11:46:33 nagios1 logger: [1412675192] PASSIVE SERVICE CHECK: CA-PRESIDEOK: Process lsass.exe is running [ 1 ] ). Which is the meaning of this asterisk in line?

Thanks in advance

I presume you are implying the '$'. This is usually due to a macro not getting populated. I see this often caused by adding notification scripts to event handlers, and trying to use macros in command for objects that the object does not have access to. Or you could have a typo in your configs somewhere that is effecting a macro.
