check_snmp (External Command Error)

[Davey, Jatin Kumar (Jatin Kumar)]

Ok , Thanks.

For the benefit of all I did two changes and it worked.

Change 1:
Mentioned the full OID as mentioned by Werner.

Change 2:

Instead of using the $HOSTADDRESS$ , I used $ARG1$

Thanks
Jatin

I think your OID needs to be all numerical.  (translate iso into the numerical prefix).

Hi All

I have the latest stable version of Nagios Core and Nagios Plugins installed in a CentOS 6.2 machine. While using the check_snmp in my object files I am getting the following error in the UI:

External command error: snmp_build: unknown failuresnmpget: Error building ASN.1 representation (Can't build OID for variable)

Text in the host file where I have defined the service is:

define service{

        host_name               Dslam-XXX
        service_description     XXXX:1-1-5-1
        check_command           check_xdsl_line!x.x.x.x!iso.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8.134610945!xxx
        max_check_attempts      5
        check_interval          1
        retry_interval          3
        check_period            24x7
        notification_interval   30
        notification_period     24x7
        contact_groups          admins
        }

Text in the commands file for the above used custom command is:

define command{
        command_name    check_xdsl_line
        command_line    $USER1$/check_snmp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -o $ARG1$ -C $ARG2$ -c 1
        }


Please let me know how to solve this issue.

Thanks
Jatin
