Nagios Support Forum

Good day,

we have following problem: the Service "Ping" will be presently (for each host) the status "unkown" - pls see attached the two screenshots.

Question: Who can help/assist there in order that the service will be in good working order (maybe after some reset some commands are missing

in the configuration - this is the reason why we have send also the two shortcuts).

Many thanks beforehand for assistance again.

Hi RalfS,

It looks like you have the check_nt plugin selected for the ping check, try selecting the check_ping plugin for the Check command in the Service Management window (red arrow in the attached copy of your screenshot).

Thanks and Best Regards,
Keith

Hi,

Have checked the nt_plugin but unfortunately wihout success (same as before).

(Pls also see the attached screenshot).

Many thanks again for help/assistance in this matter.

Hi RalfS,

Try changing the Check command to one of the ping commands such as check_ping ( see the attached screenshot ).

Thanks and Best Regards,
Keith

Many thanks for your help/assistance!

Have tried to use this ommand but unfortunately the result seems to be the same - see attached screenshot

Are there maybe any other suggestions/helpful hints for this problem?

Many thanks again.

Edit the service again and set your $ARG1$ and $ARG2$ values to these:
Then Save, Apply Configuration, force a check, and then let us know if that resolved the issue.

Thank you!

Hello,

many thanks again for help and assistance.

Have changed it in the mentioned way but unfortunately without success. (pls see attached screenshots).

If some other ideas: Very welcome to solve this problem.

Many thanks.

Go back and edit the service, then chance the Check command to check_ping. Then apply configuration and force a check. The output shows check_nt so you must've selected the wrong check command on that service.
