check_ssl_cert ssl handshake error
Posted: Wed Apr 29, 2020 2:49 pm
Hello All,
I'm getting ssl handshake errors when using a check_ssl_cert Nagios plugin.
Specifically - 140790E5:SSL routines:ssl23_write:ssl handshake failure:s23_lib.c:177:
I know it's probably a timeout or server is busy issue - but I'd like it not to go in critical state and send alerts.
I've got this defined in my 'define host' : max_check_attempts 5
How can I make it keep trying until it succeeds ? I'm just trying to keep track of the days before the cert expires.
If all else fails - i might just write a text file with cert expiration but rather not do that.
I'm using this plugin:
https://github.com/matteocorti/check_ssl_cert
If anyone can help - it'd be nice.
Chris
