Check_NRPE plugin issue after 3.0b7 upgrade.

Nagios isn't seeing anything - it's the check_disk plugin that's returning
the "OK" result.
check_disk --help shows that -w and -c are used to show free space in
"units" when a percent sign doesn't follow the number:
check_disk --help
Options:
-w, --warning=INTEGER
Exit with WARNING status if less than INTEGER units of disk are free
-w, --warning=PERCENT%
Exit with WARNING status if less than PERCENT of disk space is free
-c, --critical=INTEGER
Exit with CRITICAL status if less than INTEGER units of disk are free
-c, --critical=PERCENT%
Exit with CRITCAL status if less than PERCENT of disk space is free
In your case, free space is around 3600 MB, far more than the 15/20 required
to trigger a critical/warning status. So, the command you really want is
probably:
command[check_disk2]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 20% -c 15% -p
/dev/sda10

Subject: [Nagios-users] Check_NRPE plugin issue after 3.0b7 upgrade.
I've migrated from 1.0 to 3.0b7 recently and I'm running into a couple of
issues, the most pressing of which is a problem with the check_nrpe plugin's
return of data.
This is my command definition:
define command {
command_name check_nrpe
command_line $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c $ARG1$
}
Copied from my old config.
This is the service in question:
###### Check Linux /db Partition on DB servers
define service {
use generic-service
hostgroup_name generic-hostgroup
service_description /db Partition
contact_groups GRP-Systems,GRP-Pagers
check_period 24x7
notification_interval 15
notification_options w,u,c,r
notification_period 24x7
check_command check_nrpe!check_disk2
max_check_attempts 3
normal_check_interval 15
retry_check_interval 1
}
This is the relevant part of the nrpe.cfg located on one of the affected
hosts:
command[check_disk2]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 20 -c 15 -p
/dev/sda10
Now this command works fine, and outputs this in Nagios:
/db Partition
OK 12-19-2007 09:37:54 4d 11h 53m 8s 1/3 DISK OK - free space: /db 3653 MB
(4% inode=99%):
So, my problem here is that Nagios clearly sees that there is 4% of disk
space free, and yet still thinks the service is in an OK state. I need it to
recognize the Warning/Critical levels on the new system like it did on the
old system.
I'm using these packages on Centos 5.1:
nagios-3.0b7.tar.gz
nagios-plugins-1.4.7.tar.gz
Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated
