-u, Time unit of measurement (seconds|minutes|hours|days) (default: minutes)

Try

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_uptime -c 60 -u days

or convert to minutes 60 * 24 * 60 = 86400

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_uptime -c 86400

Not true, here's my example with a machine that has been up 85 days (more than 60)

Code: Select all

[root@localhost ~]# uptime
 11:44:37 up 85 days,  2:25,  2 users,  load average: 0.35, 0.36, 0.25
[root@localhost ~]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_uptime -c 60 -u days
Uptime CRITICAL: 85 day(s) 2 hour(s) 25 minute(s) | uptime=85.000000;;60.000000;

for clarity, the command for LESS THAN 60 days would be

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_uptime -c 60: -u days

alias_up_60 = check_uptime "crit=uptime > -60d"
