Nagios Support Forum

Good afternoon, all!

I have a working Nagios Core server running on Ubuntu 12.04. It's a stock installation from Ubuntu's repository. It's also 64-bit. Which is fine, until I needed to start using check_by_ssh on some 32-bit targets. I found that I couldn't run any compiled plugins - I got this: When I went over to the target machine and checked, I found this: Yep, it's compiled for a 64-bit system.

I have looked all over for a set of 32-bit plugins that I can simply pick up and copy into the target machines (there are many of them). I am looking now for suggestions on how to deploy 32-bit plugins to many Linux machines to be managed by the 64-bit central server.

Thanks to all for looking!

Please see here for examples, I've never done it, and it's outside the scope of our support:

My recommendation would be to spin up a 32 bit server and just compile them there and distribute as necessary.

Hello, ssax!

I spun up a new 32-bit server, and ran into dependency issues. The new plugins were looking for glibc of at least 2.5 - some of my machines are too old for this.

When I moved the new plugins to a machine with glibc as new or newer than 2.5, I ran into some sub-dependencies. So, using the new plugins from the Ubuntu repository is a no-go.

I think I'll need to get some older plugins and compile on the Linux versions I have, and hopefully distribute from there.

Thanks for the help!
