AW: Possible bug in performace data

[Husch Andreas]

Hi,
this works fine for me, my output in the serviceperf.log file looks like this:
1099034929      tizian  CPULOAD CPU Load 36% (5 min average)    OK         '5 min avg Load'=36%;70;90;0;100

I'm using Nagios 1.2 too.

Regards
Andreas

Betreff: [Nagios-devel] Possible bug in performace data


Dear members, I have has the following possible bug reported to me.  Can anybody clarify this?  Regards, Ben.

I'm having the following problem with Nagios in combination with the perfparse tool:

When a certain check generates performance data with space characters in the metric with single quotes around them, the single quotes *disappear* when the information is written to the perfdata-service.log file. As a result, the performance data gets parsed incorrectly by perfparse.

For example, if I do the following check manually:
$ check_nt -H rlswas1c -v CPULOAD -l 5,50,90 The result is something like:
CPU Load 0% (5 min average) |'5 min avg Load'=0%;50;90;0;100 Notice the single quotes around '5 min avg Load'.

However, if I let Nagios do the check, the following data appears in the perfdata-service.log file:
1101131232      rlswas1c        CPU load        CPU Load 0% (5 min average)
OK         5 min avg Load=0%;50;75;0;100
Notice that there are NO single quotes around '5 min avg Load'.

Does anyone have an idea where the quotes are being dropped and what I can do about it?

I'm using:
Nagios 1.2
PerfParse 0.103.1
A recent CVS snapshot of Nagios-plugins
