Nagios Support Forum

I know it be a while since I use nagios but I am not sure it config properly perhaps you can give me a quick look over

is this correct

Serverside :
nrpe.cfg
command[check_freeswitch]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_freeswitch -q show-calls-count

command.cfg

'check_freeswtich' command definition

define command{
command_name check_freeswitch
command_line $USER1$/check_freeswitch -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c $ARG1$ -a $ARG2$

service.cfg

define service {
use generic-service
service_description FreeSWITCH Call Count
check_command check_freeswitch! -q show-calls-count

Client :
nope.cfg
command[check_freeswitch]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_freeswitch -q show-calls-count

Does check_freeswitch connect directly from the nagios server or are you installing it on the client with the NRPE configs you showed?

It all looks right to me if it is on the client except you should change the following


service.cfg
also the definition in command.cfg is not necessary

the command show run from the client side under NRPE

Did you make the recommended changes to the command I suggested then?

Code: Select all

define service {
use generic-service
service_description FreeSWITCH Call Count
check_command check_nrpe!check_freeswitch

also the definition in command.cfg is not necessary

After making the changes, restart nagios

yes I did and restart both nrpe and nagios

result still the same if I run the command on client it get the expected result if I run it from

this is the common I run from nagios server to test (I get invalid option -q )

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H xx.xx.xx.xx -c check_freeswitch -q 'show-calls-cout'

on. client side I run

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_freeswitch -q show-calls-count

FREESWITCH OK - Result of check is: 25 total. | show-calls-count=25;;

these are the correct value that it should return

change this To this You already have -q 'show-calls-cout' in the command on NRPE and that's not how you would pass arguments anyways

ok thanks for the feedback how can I pass the augment correctly then .

If you had arguments specified in your NRPE file like so You could then call nrpe like so And it would be passed to NRPE and this is what would be executed on the remote system
