[Nagios-users] nrpe check_disk

[joe ritter]

Hello,
I am usig nagios with check_nrpe to monitor remote
hosts running the nrpe daemon. I anm having difficulty
with the plugin check_disk. If I run the the command
by hand on the nagios hosts all is well:

/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H 192.168.120.11
-c check_disk -a 20% 10% /dev/cciss/c0d0p1
DISK OK [67334 kB (71%) free on /dev/cciss/c0d0p1]

If run the command on the remote hosts all look fine
as well:

/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk -w 20% -c 10%
/dev/cciss/c0d0p1
DISK OK [67334 kB (71%) free on /dev/cciss/c0d0p1]


However when the command is run by the nagios daemon
on the moniting host the I recieve the follwoing error
in the web interface:

Warning threshold must be integer or percentage!

Here are the relevant defines I have set up for this
plugin:

nrpe.cfg on remote host:

command[check_disk]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk
-w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$ -
p $ARG3$

service.cfg on nagios host:

define service{
use generic-service
check_period 24x7
max_check_attempts 15
normal_check_interval 5
retry_check_interval 1
hostgroup_name web_servers
contact_groups devs
service_description partition_usage2
check_command
check_nrpe!check_disk!20%!10%!/

If someone could shed some light on where I am going
wrong I would greatly appreciate. Thanks in advance.

j.

Im not sure if I am doing this the correct way, I have pasted the
services.cfg portion below that isnt correct,

# Service definition
define service{
use generic-service
; Name of service template to use
host_name fileServer
service_description DISK
is_volatile 0
check_period 24x7
max_check_attempts 3
normal_check_interval 1
retry_check_interval 1
contact_groups admins
notification_interval 1
notification_period 24x7
notification_options w,u,c,r
check_command check_disk 85%, 95%
}

I would like to monitor all hard drives on a machine called fileServer and
set warning and critical alarms at 85% and 95%,

Thanks in advance,

Yatindra

Yatrindra:

Not sure what version you are running, but this advice is specific for
1.3

The default command name (unless you changed the command name in
checkcommands.cfg) is check_local_disk. The default setup has this
command with 3 parameters, -w, -c and -p. -w is the warning value, -c
is the critical value and -p is path. Thus, to make your command work,
try the following:

check_command check_local_disk!85!95!/usr/disk1

This, of course, presumes that the volume you want to check space on is
mounted as /usr/disk1. Adjust this accordingly...

p $ARG3$

You do have nrpe compiled with remote args? Otherwise it will not see
the arguments.

Yes nrpe does have remote argument functionality
compiled in. The reason I know this and that I beleive
it is built correctly is that on these hosts where the
check_disk plugin does not work, the check_swap plugin
does and displays correctly in the web interface. Does
anyone have any other things that I might check?

Thanks
J.
