Monitoring HP Procurve Interfaces

[James Pratt]

Hello, have you tried running them as the nagios user, or as root user
or both?

 

Sometimes it will not execute the same as nagios user, so you can test
using su - nagios -c "/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_cmd -H <IP
ADDRESS>" etc etc... 

 

Also, this may help -

Cheers,

James

Hello,

 

I am trying to monitor the interfaces on my HP Procurve 5400 series
switch.  I have tried both check_iftraffic3 and check_snmp_int.  The
commands work perfectly from the command line.  However the web
interface reports (return code of 255 is out of bounds) for
check_iftraffic3 and (return code of 127 is out of bounds) for
check_snmp_int .

 

I am able to monitor all other hardware on the switch through Nagios
just fine.

 

Any thoughts on this?

 

Thanks.
