SNMP/Windows disk usage

[mark.potter at academy.com]

Melanie.

1. When you test the script are you testing it as the nagios user?
2. Does the script reside in the libexec folder under the nagios user's 
home directory?

If the answer to the above questions is yes then:

define  command {
        command_name    check_snmp_windows_disk
        command_line    $USER1$/check_snmp_storage -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C 
$ARG1$ -q FixedDisk -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$ -m $ARG4$ $ARG5$
        }
That is my command definition. $ARG5$ is an optional switch for exclusion.

One of the check commands (with security info snipped)

define  service {
        host_name                          <SNIP>
        service_description             SNMP - Windows - Disk - Production
        is_volatile                           0
        check_command check_snmp_windows_disk!<SNIP>!95!98!^C:!-e
        max_check_attempts          3
        normal_check_interval        120
        retry_check_interval            30
        active_checks_enabled        1
        passive_checks_enabled     1
        check_period                    24x7
        parallelize_check               1
        obsess_over_service             1
        check_freshness                 0
        event_handler_enabled           1
        flap_detection_enabled          1
        process_perf_data               1
        retain_status_information       1
        retain_nonstatus_information    1
        contact_groups                  sysalertstest
        notification_interval           120
        notification_period             24x7
        notification_options            w,u,c,r
        notifications_enabled           1
        register                        1
        }

That is the check for our production windows servers excluding the C drive 
(the -e is the exclude switch).

I hope this information is helpful.
