Problem with check_load on centos4

[Chris Wilson]

Hi Danny,

> ./check_load 5 10 15 10 15 20
> CRITICAL - load average: 0.55, 0.30, 0.11|load1=0.550;0.000;0.000;0;
> load5=0.300;0.000;0.000;0; load15=0.110;0.000;0.000;0;

Are you sure that's the right way to use check_load? When I try that, I
get:

> [chris at dev anthill]$ /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_load 5 10 15 10
> 15 20
> Parameter inconsistency: 5-minute "warning load" greater than
> "critical load".
> Usage: check_load -w WLOAD1,WLOAD5,WLOAD15 -c CLOAD1,CLOAD5,CLOAD15
>        check_load --version
>        check_load --help
> 

But this works:

> [chris at dev anthill]$ /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_load -w 5,10,15
> -c 10,15,20
> OK - load average: 1.20, 0.92, 0.63

Cheers, Chris.
