Try again from the command line with -vv, and send the output you get. That should help me with the debugging. As it is, the only thing I would note is to wonder if you really want the critical and warning values to be 3 Gbps and 5Gbps. It's not completely unreasonable, of course, depending on what you are monitoring (I think there are devices that can get multi-gigabit speeds), but most devices never get anywhere near that kind of traffic. Regardless, that shouldn't cause the first errors you are seeing, as the lines referenced are just seeing how big the input values are. Course, if you ARE getting gigabit speeds, I suppose it's possible i'm getting an overflow somewhere- i've never tested with that level traffic (as I don't have anything that generates that kind of traffic).</div> <div><span class="e" id="q_1181e5b8f0b5ed2e_5"><br><blockquote type="cite"><br>Thanks again, and forgive me for these questions: Like i used to say, i am a student and i am newbie in linux, LAMP servers, Nagios, MRTG, RRDTool..... and everything you imagine..<br> <br>Cheers<br><br>Pili<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">2008/2/15, Israel Brewster <<a href="mailto:israel@frontierflying.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">israel@frontierflying.com</a>>:</span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> <div><br><div><span style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><div> <span style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><br> </span></span></div></span> </div><br><div><span><div>On Feb 14, 2008, at 1:48 PM, Pili Muñoz Gargallo wrote:</div><br><blockquote type="cite">hi all, <br>thanks for the help.

Also, note that the -l switch only affects the display of the output. It is not needed in normal operation, unless you really want to see the output as bits rather than Kb, Mb, etc. The plugin will auto-choose the best option based on the data if you leave this switch out. But the main problem is the period before that slash. Remove it, and it should work.</div> <div><span><div><br></div><div>-----------------------------------------------</div><div>Israel Brewster</div><div>Computer Support Technician</div><div>Frontier Flying Service Inc.</div> <div>5245 Airport Industrial Rd</div> <div>Fairbanks, AK 99709</div><div>(907) 450-7250 x293</div><div>-----------------------------------------------</div><blockquote type="cite"><br> I obtain now:<br>OK - Current BW in: bps Out: bps<br> <br>any more ideas? <br> Thank you again for your patience!!!<br><br>Pili<br><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">2008/2/13, Israel Brewster <<a href="mailto:israel@frontierflying.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">israel@frontierflying.com</a>>:</span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> On Feb 13, 2008, at 6:34 AM, Marc Powell wrote:<br> >> -----Original Message-----<br> >> From: <a href="mailto:nagios-users-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">nagios-users-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net</a> [mailto:<a href="mailto:nagios-" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">nagios-</a><br> >> users-<br> >> <a href="mailto:bounces@lists.sourceforge.net" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">bounces@lists.sourceforge.net</a>] On Behalf Of Pili Muñoz Gargallo<br> >> Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2008 7:23 AM<br> >> To: <a href="mailto:nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net</a><br> >> Subject: [Nagios-users] check_rrdtraf<br> >><br> >> Hi<br> >> i am trying to measure bandwith using check_rrd<br> ><br> > When asking about plugins that don't come with the distribution it's<br> > helpful to include where you obtained the plugin so everyone knows<br> > which check_rrd (or check_rrdtraf as the case may be) you're talking<br> > about.<br> <br> <br>That would be (partly) my plugin, obtained from <a href="http://Nagiosexchange.org" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">Nagiosexchange.org</a>,<br> most likely :)<br> <br><br> >> i use the command:<br> >> $USER1$/check_rrdtraf -f ./var/www/html/cfg/$HOSTADRESS$_1.rrd -l<br> >> b -vv -<br> >> c $ARG1$ -w $ARG2$<br> ><br> > You meant $HOSTADDRESS$ here, right?<br> <br> <br>And did you really want that period before the /var ?<br> <br>><br> ><br> >> and in the service i give it the next arguments:<br> >> !3000000,3000000!5000000,5000000<br> >><br> >> i have read about it several times, and it doesn't work how i espect:<br> >> it returns me an OK value, but it doesn't tell me the present BW...<br> >> Am i missing something?<br> >><br> ><br> > When you run the above command as the nagios user from the command<br> > line, does the first line of output match what you're seeing in the<br> > GUI?

As that flag gives a lot of debugging output, and nagios<br> only displays the first line of output, I wouldn't expect it to show<br> the traffic values with this switch in there.
