Retunr code question

Post by Bitflogger »

Hello,

I see critical alerts like this: (Return code of 255 for service 'w_log_app_restart' on host '******.wisc.edu' was out of bounds)

Obviously an internal error from the plugin.

Has there been any thought about changing Unkown == 3 to Unknown >= 3 ?

Are you using check_nrpe? If you do, you could make connection problems return UNKNOWN instead of CRITICAL by using the "-u" flag.
-u, --unknown-timeout Make connection problems return UNKNOWN instead of CRITICAL
