Hi all, If you're using NSClient++, you can check all the WMI-Counters with the following command: ./check_nt -H 127.0.0.1 -p 1234 -v COUNTER -l '\\Terminaldienste\\Sitzungen Insgesamt' (You have to search the correct Counter with the Windows Performance Monitor) Mit freundlichen Grüßen / best regards Carsten Koop <table width=100%> <tr valign=top> <td width=40%>"James Whittington" <James.Whittington@vc3.com> Gesendet von: nagios-users-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net 14.02.2007 17:00 <td width=59%> <table width=100%> <tr valign=top> <td> <div align=right>An</div> <td>"Robert Wolfe" <rwolfe@shatterit.com>, <Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net> <tr valign=top> <td> <div align=right>Kopie</div> <td> <tr valign=top> <td> <div align=right>Thema</div> <td>Re: [Nagios-users] Checking Windows counter via nagios, nsclient++, and nrpe </table> <table> <tr valign=top> <td> <td></table> </table> checkCounter can check any performance counter object in windows as far as I know. I found out if you are using nsclient++ the command “nsclient++ CheckSystem listpdh” would dump all the counters it found. I looked for the process I was wanting to watch to find the right syntax for the process and instance.

I already have nsclient++ in place, and I’m using the checkCounter command in nrpe. The main issue at this point is the counter in question returns a value in scientific notation, which isn’t very readable for non-scientists. Here’s the command and response: ./check_nrpe -H 192.168.197.183 -p 5666 -c checkCounter -a "Counter:PrivBytes=\\Process(ProductATasksService)\\Private Bytes" ShowAll OK: PrivBytes: 2.38641e+08 Is there an option to convert the format to human readable? If not I might have to write something to convert it which might be a bad idea anyway, since I don’t see performance data coming from the plugin either and I write the performance data to a sql backend. I figured I would toss the question out to the list to see if others had run into this before.
