VM monitoring in Nagios Core

[[email protected]]

Hi,

we have Nagios Core version 3.2.0

Recently we moved two servers from Physical to VM, Which we are monitoring in Nagios Core, then after nagios is showing critical status for those two machines and in services status as "CRITICAL: No Plugin Output!".

Please let us know if any plugin required.


Thanks,

[rkennedy]

You'll more than likely need the plugin. Can you post two things for us to review?

1. The output of ls -al /usr/local/nagios/libexec/
2. The service definitions associated with the services reporting 'No Plugin Output!'

Some of the permissions appear to be incorrect in your plugin folder (admin:admin) which could affect it. As for diving into what the actual problem is, it looks like you're using the RVD-Dataloss-service template. Please post this template for us to review, as well as the command definition that it's using in conjunction.
