nrpe has problem understanding the arguments containing "--".

EG:- ./check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDR$ -c "check_hardware" -a "--chassis --storage"

nrpe is unable to parse the arguments. Is there escape sequence needed for them ?

When executed individually , the script is running absolutely fine

What is the output when you run it this way? Two things you can try are escaping with back slashes like \-\- or replacing the double quotes with single quotes.

Anything else we can do for you regarding this, or is this one okay to lock up?
