Warning: 2 services running

We just upgraded our SEP and we not have 2 services running for SEP on every server.

I am getting this in Nagios: 2 services active (matching "Symantec Endpoint Protection") : WARNING

What can I do to fix this issue?

Thanks,
Kerwin

What command are you using to get the number of services? Is this running through an agent like NRPE or NCPA?

From CCM in XI can you use the Test Check Command button from within the service and show us the result.

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp_win.pl -H biglots -C hello --v2c -n 'Symantec Endpoint Protection'

There could be another service matching for some reason. Try the command again but with the "-v" which should show services:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp_win.pl -H biglots -C hello --v2c -n 'Symantec Endpoint Protection' -v

There are 2 services with Symantec Endpoint protection in the name. Is there a way to all for multiple services with the same name?

You could try the -N argument:

Code: Select all

-n, --name=NAME[,NAME2...]
   Comma separated names of services (perl regular expressions can be used for every one).
   By default, it is not case sensitive.
-N, --number=<n>
   Compare matching services with <n> instead of the number of names provided.

Are the names exactly the same? It would be best to use the unique name of the service you want to be monitoring.
