CHECK_NRPE: Socket timeout after 50 seconds.

[Samreen Mardhani]

We are getting the above error on a server, where it has been verified that all the services are up and running fine.
For this process we usually follow the below steps to kill the jar files. As soon as we kill the jar files, the alert gets cleared.

 Ssh hostname
 cd /usr/local/nagios/libexec/wlsagent
 ps –ef|grep wlsagent
 Look for Procees id with jar file
 Kill -9 processid
 Ps –ef|grep wlsagent
 ./run.sh &
 Logout

But, from few days, even after killing the Jar file, it gets created again and nrpe alert does not get clear. Please suggest on Priority.

@Samreen Mardhani, I suggest making sure that you're using the latest version of this plugin.

I found this unhandled issue on the author's page that looks similar to the problem you're having.
https://code.google.com/archive/p/wlsagent/issues/21
This is a third party plugin and Nagios has no control over how fast the author will release a patch for this bug.

My advice would be to look for a different plugin on the Nagios exchange portal.
