1st post to the group, basic q ... I think

[Lance Raymond]

so far the install, etc. went easy there are some good doc's there.

I am still  understanding the groups, etc. but so far I have the server 
and 2 remote hosts setup.  The load check isn't really to good, so I 
downloaded the perl one using snmp and from the command line works 
great, see this example;

[root at ws6 libexec]# perl ./check_snmp_load.pl -H ipadd -C community -w 
3,3,2 -c 4,4,3 -T netsl
Load : 5.55 5.04 4.87 : 5.55 > 4 : CRITICAL 5.04 > 4 : CRITICAL 4.87 > 3 
: CRITICAL

I added the following to the commands.cfg file;

define command{
   command_name check_snmp_load_v1
   command_line $USER1$/check_snmp_load.pl -H $HOSTADDRESS$ $USER7$ -T 
$ARG1$ -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$ $ARG4$
}

on the target machine I put;

define service{
        use                             local-service         ; Name of 
service template to use
        host_name                       servername
        service_description             Current Load via SNMP
        check_command                   
check_local_load!5.0,4.0,3.0!10.0,6.0,4.0
        }

I restarted nagios, saw the new line in the details, but the values are 
showing as;
OK - load average: 0.10, 0.06, 0.01

I did have a shell opened testing the local script at the same time and 
the load is still around 5.

I will have other questions, etc. as I read/play more, but just wanted 
to get this part done, then look at thresholds, etc. but if anyone is 
using this script and notice something obvious, please feel free to let 
me know.

Thanks.
