Can you provide a bit more detail?

What checks are these for? (WMI, NSClient, NCPA, etc)
What plugin is this check using?
Is this for *all* Windows checks or just certain ones?
Can you provide a screenshot?

Are you trying to run the check_wmi_plus plugin from one of your remote workers?

You can go to these sites to get that tool.

Code: Select all

http://rpm.pbone.net/
or the source from here

wmic should be in your /usr/local/bin directory if XI was installed with all the defaults.

Code: Select all

[jdalrymple@localhost etc]$ which wmic
/usr/local/bin/wmic
[jdalrymple@localhost etc]$ ls -l /usr/local/bin/wmic
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 14188908 Dec  1  2011 /usr/local/bin/wmic

You need to update these Perl modules pre-req's for wmic. Use either yum install or cpanm.

Is this for a RHEL or CentOS server? Can you download them from outside the firewall, and then copy them via secure copy?
