WMI Query

[Gaston_Perez at itginc.com]

Hi All I am pretty new to Linux / Nagios and I am running Nagios 1.2, on a
Redhat 9 server. I have Nagios plugins 1.42 installed on my server and on
my windows 2003 servers I have nc_net 2.28. I am trying to run wmi queries
to check the physical hard drive to report back to me if one fails. Here
is what I have in my checkcommands

# 'WMI Harddrive check' command definition

define command{

        command_name    check_nt_wmihdd

        command_line    $USER1$check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -v WMICHECK -l
"cimv2/win32_logicaldrive"

        }

I have also tried this

       command_line    /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$
-v WMICHECK -l "cimv2^select name,freespace,deviceid,status from
win32_DiskDrive"

       }

And this

command_line    $USER$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -v WMICHECK -l
"cimv2^select DeviceID,Status from win32_DiskDrive"

        }

 

Here is my services command

 

define service{

        use                             check-nt-service

        register                        1

        host_name                       server1

        service_description             WMI HDD

        check_command                   check_nt_wmihdd

        max_check_attempts              3

        normal_check_interval           5

        retry_check_interval            3

        check_period                    24x7

        notification_interval           120

        notification_period             workhours

        notification_options            w,c,r

        contact_groups                  prodsupp

        }

 

Response I have seen from the server is

(Return code of 127 is out of bounds - plugin may be missing) 

Nagios Log displays this

[1128541333] Warning: Return code of 127 for check of service 'WMI HDD' on
host 'rad-db01' was out of bounds. Make sure the plugin you're trying to
run actually exists.

When I ran the first check command statement above this is the output to
the Nagios log

rad-db01;WMI HDD;CRITICAL;HARD;3;(Return code of 127 is out of bounds -
plugin may be missing)

 

Now I checked my nc_net plugin and it is the version (2.28) that can read
wmi checks. I also verified that the Nagios plugins I am using (1.42)can
understand wmi checks. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks in Advance
