Hello XI Support

Is there a way to alert against the inode counts?

NRPE plugins tracks them, but how to create an alert?
- unless there is another plugin?

Thank you

Using check_disk you can use the following arguments to alert if inodes are less that the % specified

Code: Select all

 -W, --iwarning=PERCENT%
    Exit with WARNING status if less than PERCENT of inode space is free
 -K, --icritical=PERCENT%
    Exit with CRITICAL status if less than PERCENT of inode space is free

Hello Scott

No luck with that. How the Arguments and the command should look like?

Thank you

Example

Does not work for us:

Timeout STATE must be a valid state name (case-insensitive) or integer:

Note:
This plugin requires that you have the NRPE daemon running on the remote host.
You must also have configured the daemon to associate a specific plugin command
with the [command] option you are specifying here. Upon receipt of the
[command] argument, the NRPE daemon will run the appropriate plugin command and
send the plugin output and return code back to *this* plugin. This allows you
to execute plugins on remote hosts and 'fake' the results to make Nagios think
the plugin is being run locally.

In NRPE the command would look line this
