Nagios XI Metrics component issue

Hi Team,

We are able to see few parameters like CPU usage, disk usage in Metrics option under the "Home" tab. But, we are not able to see the physical memory parameter in that. I have checked other topics raised in Nagios forum regarding the same issue but could not find any solution on the same.

The other parameters are using check_nt plugin.
Physical memory is using check_nrpe plugin.

We want to display physical memory utilization as well in Metrics component. I am attaching here screen shot for physical memory service settings and also for the Metrics component.

Please check it and help us on the same.

Thanks in advance!!

Hello @RIDS_I2MP,

How did you create the service check. The metrics component will work with many of the wizards in Nagios XI, but it doesn't work for everything. Essentially, the check command needs to output performance data in the proper format. Moreover, the component has to match the particular check command so it can be added to the component.

It looks like in this case, it's not matching CheckMEM for check_nrpe.
