check_print_spooler

[gdolidze]

I get this error for this plugin.

(No output on stdout) stderr: Could not resolve hostname -c: Name or service not known

this is the command i have-

$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $ARG1$ -c check_print_spooler -a cfjh00.cfjh.net

It looks to me like you're not double hopping. Is that a true or false statement?

If so, try changing your command to just:

Code: Select all

$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $ARG1$ -c check_print_spooler

And see if that helps.

[gdolidze]

The new error I get is

UNKNOWN: No handler for that command


$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $ARG1$ -c check_print_spooler
$ARG1$ cfjh00.cfjh.net


Also what do you mean by double hopping.

[jolson]

Could you please post the NRPE configuration file from your remote host?

Code: Select all

cat /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg

Also, try running the full command manually via the CLI:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H $ARG1$ -c check_print_spooler -a cfjh00.cfjh.net

[jolson]

gdolidze,

I have verified the script as working on my own machine. This is what was required.

1. I had to download the .vbs file and modify it as follows:

Code: Select all

' MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa394370%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
' Required Variables
' Author: Oliver Skibbe oliskibbe (at) gmail.com
' Date: 2013-10-30
Const PROGNAME = "check_print_spooler"
Const VERSION = "1.1.0"

' Nagios helper functions
Include "C:\Program Files\NSClient++\scripts\lib\NagiosPlugins.vbs"

' Arguments
strComputer = WScript.Arguments.Item(0)

' Defaults
return_code = 0
return_msg = "Everythings fine"

' automatically kill job?
killjob = true


' Create WMI object
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")

' Create the NagiosPlugin object
Set np = New NagiosPlugin

' Fetch all jobs with status error
Set Result = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * From Win32_PrintJob Where Status = 'Error'")

For Each instance In Result

	' automatic job kill
	If killjob = True Then
		instance.Delete_
	Else
		' JobId is attached to "caption, description and name" thus we want to split and accessible with printerName(1)
		printerName = Split(instance.Caption,",")
		' if job should not be automatically killed, print critical and printer name
		failedPrinterStr = failedPrinterStr & " " & Chr(34) & printerName(0) & Chr(34)
		return_code = 2
	End If
next

If return_code > 0 Then
	return_msg = "Job Errors on printer " & failedPrinterStr
End If

' Nice Exit with msg and exitcode
np.nagios_exit return_msg, return_code


Sub Include( cNameScript )
    Set oFS = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")		
    Set oFile = oFS.OpenTextFile( cNameScript )
    ExecuteGlobal oFile.ReadAll()
    oFile.Close
End Sub

After it was downloaded, I placed it in C:\Program Files\NSClient++\scripts.

2. I had to modify my NSClient configuration as follows:

Code: Select all

[/settings/external scripts]
..
allow arguments = True
..

[/settings/external scripts/scripts]
..
check_print_spooler=cscript.exe //T:30 //NoLogo scripts/check_print_spooler.vbs $ARG1$ $ARG2$ 
..

[/modules]
..
CheckExternalScripts = enabled
..

After these modifications were made, I restarted NSClient via services.msc.

3. Run a test check from your nagios box:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H <windows.print.server.ip> -c check_print_spooler -a "."

This will tell the plugin to check the local print spool.

Let me know if you have any trouble with the above.

;# ENCRYPTION METHOD
;   This option determines the method by which the send_nsca client will encrypt the packets it sends 
;   to the nsca daemon. The encryption method you choose will be a balance between security and 
;   performance, as strong encryption methods consume more processor resources.
;   You should evaluate your security needs when choosing an encryption method.
;
; Note: The encryption method you specify here must match the decryption method the nsca daemon uses 
;       (as specified in the nsca.cfg file)!!
; Values:
;	0 = None	(Do NOT use this option)
;	1 = Simple XOR  (No security, just obfuscation, but very fast)
