check_disk syntax question

Hello all

I am using check_disk plugin to monitor some very large file systems. I was monitoring using percentages, but this is pointless, because when you ar 99% full, you still have lots of space.

so I changed to a minimum killobytes check, now i get critical messages for every disk i check,  probably something obviously wrong in what im doing.

Here is one of my filesystems
#df -k
sw017    4164728832 858727296 3306001536    21%    /sw017

and here is my nrpe command
command[check_sw017]=/nagios/libexec/check_disk -c 1000000 -w 1500000 -m /sw017

im trying to set it to 1.5 gb warning, and 1gb crit.

but i get this error every time.
DISK CRITICAL [-988965760 kB (79%) free on /sw017] 


is my sytax wrong????

help appreciated
Stu
