check_procs timeout - Solaris 10

[Sapon, Dimitry]

Hi Dani,

Thanks for the quick response. 

At first I ran into this problem when I added the new Solaris 10 box to
monitor (current ones being monitored are all 8. The new box started
timing out through NRPE. After investigating I figured out that, NRPE
works fine. So I tested running the command from the shell and got the
same error message, which basically says that it's the plugin itself
that's having the problem

Regarding your solution, was that the one with Java environment
variables?

I'm working just now in a medium deployment of Nagios in a mixed
enviroment: Sol 8, 10 (sparc,x86) and linux and foundsome troubles with
check_procs. 

Check at the end for my solution.

do you run it directly from the shell or through nrpe?

My problem with check_procs was different but we found the solution in
the next 

http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/816-2678/6m90st2dn?a=view

After applying the patch check_procs works great under solaris.

Good Luck,

Dani
