Hi Team,

WE have enabled monitoring on windows server through Nagios XI.Host is up and running fine but in Nagios it is showing as DOWN. The services are shown with correct status as up and in GREEN but the host state is wrong in nagios.

Kindly let us know the reason as to why this is happening and what can be done to correct this.

Hi,

It's possible that the windows host has ping responses disabled. Are you able to ping this host directly from the shell in Nagios XI?

Code: Select all

ping server_IP
If that works, please trying running the plugin directly and post the output.

Code: Select all

cd /usr/local/nagios/libexec/
./check_ping -H Target_Server_IP -w 1,10% -c 2,20%
