Hello,

when I run command

./check_nrpe -H host_ip_address -c check_drivesize -a "crit=free<5GB" "warn=free<10GB" drive=c: "filter=type='fixed'"

from nagios server, I get error:

Code: Select all

Failed to validate filter see log for details: Warning expression is not valid: free<10GB

It is same when I set this command to nsclient.ini.

I've tried also alternative command

check_c=CheckDriveSize Drive=c:\ MinWarn=10GB MinCrit=5GB FilterType=FIXED CheckAll=false

But I get same error.

I'm using latest version of Nagios Core (Nagios® Core™ 4.3.4) and NSClient++ (0.5.1.44)

Where can the problem be ?

When I use GB, I get the same output error. Use "G" instead.

Code: Select all

./check_nrpe -H 192.168.3.46 -c check_drivesize -2 -a "crit=free<5G" "warn=free<10G" drive=c: "filter=type='fixed'"

This is my output.

Code: Select all

OK All 1 drive(s) are ok|'c: free'=276.22766GB;10;5;0;451.9297 'c: free %'=61%;2;1;0;100

Let us know if this helped you.

Oh, thanks so much man.

I've copied this from older version of nsclient where It worked. It looks like that somebody has changed that.

The problem has been solved.
