Nagios Support Forum

I just started with this company and found this error on the Nagios install. The install is on Ubuntu 12.4

Error: No command "check_nrpe!CheckMem!MaxWarn=80% MaxCrit=90% ShowAll type=physical" found

I am trying to adjust the limits for 2 servers because they run at a high level and that can not be changed.

I am by no mean Ubuntu expert or Nagios.

Can you post your configuration file for the service with an error?

Where would I find that?

From the Configure tab, click 'Core Config Manager' -> '# Services" -> Look for the service in question and click the floppy disk icon, it represents 'View Text Config'.

Attach that file here.

I do not have tabs but I am hoping this is what we are after:

check_nrpe!CheckMem!MaxWarn=80% MaxCrit=90% ShowAll type=physical

Can you post a screenshot of where you're seeing that?

I have attached the Screenshot

Commands are defined in config files, and they define whe executable run when the agent is told to run the command. Commands can have the same name as an executable, but aren't the same. Its a bit confusing.

Have a look at /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg and /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe/common.cfg.
Look for CheckMem in those files. The error is telling you the command isn't there.

Thanks @gormank. @nebblkshts let us know if this helps you.
