It will always report the value as "OK:" so as not to trigger a nagios event. Even if the CPU is running flat out. >when i call it with arguements i get >check_cup -c 10 -w 20 >i get >CPU CRITICAL: CPU is only 0% idle Yes. This CPU seems to be very busy. This is what I would expect. What happens when you run top? What processes are using CPU? >if is set critical high than warning i get an error telling me warning >must be higher >than critical This plugin reports the CPU Idle state as a percentage. Therefore if the warning threshold were lower than the critical threshold it would be redundant. This is similar to other plugins. >last when i run it as a nagios plug in I get no values returned Can you show you checkcommands.cfg entry? >has anyone played around with this plugin A little, yes. >i am running this on red hat fedora Should be no problem, I run it on RH8, Fedora 2 & 3 and OpenBSD >thanks Very happy to help!
