problem with check_yum

[Masopust, Christian]

Hello Seth,
 
I think that's not related to Nagios or check_yum.  I had the same problem on one of my servers
when running "yum check-update" from cmd-line.  On one of my machines the "yum upgrade"
was already running and the other one insisted on being up to date :-))
A few hours later and after playing around a little with repositories configured in /etc/yum.repos.d
also the second machine was aware that it has to be updated..

	I'm running nagios 3.0.6 and using check_yum on my red hat/centos boxes.

	Today I've had all my centos boxes show yum warnings about needed updates; found out centos 5.3 was released.

	 

	I have one red hat 5.2 box.  The problem is, check_yum within nagios shows 'o/s is up to date' as of last check (10 min ago).

	If I run it manually from the machine, it gives a warning that updates are needed (verified through yum and rhn).

	How can nagios be reporting that yum is ok when it isn't?
