Trying to install NCPA on a Linux host (SLES 11) running on powerpc architecture. Attempted to use the latest rpm for SLES 11 and hit the ppc surprise.

uname -m = ppc64

Is there another NCPA package that we can use or will we have to compile & use NRPE?

We do not have ppc hardware here to build against, you will need to compile from source or use an alternative agent such as NRPE that someone else has built.
https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/ncpa
Or you can use check_by_ssh:

Those are your only options for PPC at this point in time.
Let me know if you have any questions or if I can clarify anything.

Thank you for the guidance - we will pursue compiling from source and failing that, try nrpe as a fallback.
