check_snmp syntax

[Burton, Steven]

Hi,

I'm having trouble (I i.e. totally failing) in checking available swap space
on a remote server.

I tried check check_snmp (nagios_plugins 1.3.1) 1.24.2.2 and (nagios_plugins
1.3.0) 1.24 .

My results:

# snmpget -v 1 -c public sclcache1 .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.2
HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageUsed.2 = INTEGER: 512
#  ./check_snmp -w 1:100000 -P 1 -H sclcache1 -o .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.2 ;
echo $?
SNMP WARNING - 512
1
#  ./check_snmp -w 1000:100000 -P 1 -H sclcache1 -o
.1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.2 ; echo $?
SNMP WARNING - *512*
1

In fact, it always returns 1 unless I use the -c and such parameters as to
make it critical.
It seems that OK and WARNING both return 1 but WARNING puts '*' around the
variable value.

Am I doing something wrong or is this a known problem?

If necessary I'll burrow into the source but I *useless* at reading other
peoples C.

Steve.
