Nagios Support Forum

Hi,

i'm trying to get check_wmi_plus working with nagiosxi.
Running from the prompt we get the requested results , but when i run them as a service in nagiosxi i get (null) as result.
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_wmi_plus.pl -H serverX -u <user> -p <password> -m checkcpu -w 80 -c 90
OK (Sample Period 20 sec) - Average CPU Utilisation 0.28%|'Avg CPU Utilisation'=0.28%;80;90;
Has anyone ideas?

This is some info for our setup:

RHEL 5.7
/usr/local/bin/wmic --version = Version 4.0.0tp4-SVN-build-UNKNOWN
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_wmi_plus.pl --version = Version: 1.49

ll /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_wmi*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 nagios nagios 2514 Mar 1 14:50 check_wmi_plus.conf
-rwxrwxr-x 1 nagios nagios 232495 Feb 10 17:27 check_wmi_plus.pl

I've already reinstall the vmi client as described in http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... For_XI.pdf but with no result.

Hope someone can help me out.

Regards
Christian

Do you have any special characters in the username or the password? Sometimes this can be an issue, especially if you have the "!" character.

Can you post the CPU Usage service definition, so we can review it? Replace your real username and password with "<username>" and "<password>" for privacy.

username en password do not contain special charachters.

In your setup us your username in the DOMAIN\Username fashion?

You may need to escape the \ and make it DOMAIN\\Username if that is the case

The username password is like : <peter> <abc123> no domain annotation.

Sounds like your running an older version of the wizard

Check if your version number is = 1.49:

cat check_wmi_plus.pl | grep VERSION=
my $VERSION="1.49";

If your running 1.42 or older, re-add the WMI wizard found here:
http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Ad ... rd/details

nagios > admin > manage config wizards

the versions are up to date as you can see in the first post

/usr/local/bin/wmic --version = Version 4.0.0tp4-SVN-build-UNKNOWN
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_wmi_plus.pl --version = Version: 1.49

Looking back at your first post you don't appear to have a check_wmi_plus.ini file which should get installed with the wizard.

Go to: Core Config Manager->Monitoring->Services->Config name filter:<serverX>->CPU Usage->Modify and post a screenshot of this page.

Hi Scott,

i've attacched the screenshot.
