Please send us your profile Admin >> System Settings >> System Profile >> Download Profile
So that we may look at your service definitions.
Also which version on Nagios XI did you upgrade FROM?

is this a VM? how's the datastore looking on the host side? can't think of a reason for those errors to exist. you are correct though - at a linux level, looks clean.

For you general time-out error.

Are you able to do SNMP to the windows machine/server?

I tried that command on my windows 7 workstation and it didn't work if I didn't allow my XI IP address.

Could you try running these commands and show us the output of the results?

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp_storage.pl -H <WindowsIP> -C <community> --v2c -m 'Physical Memory' -w 90 -c 99 -f

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp_storage.pl -H <WindowsIP> -C <community> --v2c -m 'Virtual Memory' -w 90 -c 99 -f

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp_storage.pl -H <WindowsIP> -C <community> --v2c -m C: -w 90 -c 99 -f
Thanks!
