<div class=Section1>
<p class=MsoNormal>I'm hoping that someone has run into this before. I'm
having intermittent issues with check_nt that produces any of the following
error messages:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> Could not fetch information from server<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>or<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> Connection reset by peer<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>or<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> No data was received from host<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>This only happens with 2 remote servers (so far), both of
which are Windows 2k3 EE / SQL 2k5 database servers. The symptoms last
for about 13-15 minutes, enough time for the notifications to be sent out, then
snaps back to OK statuses. I’m using NSClient on all of my
Windows server, and the check_nt plugin to watch things such as disk
utilization, services, CPU, etc. Here are some samples of the check_nt
commands I'm using:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>$USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$
-p 1248 -v SERVICESTATE -l $ARG1 <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>$USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$
-p 1248 -v CPULOAD -l $ARG1$ <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>$USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$
-p 1248 -v USEDDISKSPACE -l $ARG1$ -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$ <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Something else to note...these Nagios service checks have
been in place for quite some time, and it's just recently started acting up.
I’d say within the last couple weeks.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Any ideas? Is this as simple as increasing the timeout
for check_nt, or does this mean I have some other underlying issues I need to
address? I’m thinking 10 seconds should be plenty of time to run
the service checks as the servers are all within the same location.<o:p></o:p></p>
