Nagios Indicateding critical file system usage

[Mark Campbell]

Hey Guys,

I have a standard nrpe setup to check local disks, however at regular
intervals I'm getting critical alerts.  I'm pretty sure these are ocnnected to
the /tmp file system which is a swap partition, however whenever there is a
critical alert hte check_disks output doesn't indicate a problem:

***** Nagios  *****

Notification Type: PROBLEM

Service: File Systems
State: CRITICAL

Date/Time: Fri Apr 14 15:22:09 EDT 2006

Additional Info:

DISK CRITICAL - free space: / 40284 MB (83%): /var 3352 MB (83%): /tmp 21853
MB (100%):

Here is the excerpt from the nrpe config file

command[check_disk]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -p / -p /var -p /tmp
-p /boot -w 10% -c 5%


And here is the output from df and some other system identification metrics

I hope I'm not missing anything that's going to make me look sheepish :)

Thanks
