Package: nagios-plugins-contrib
Version: 4.20120702
Severity: important
check_raid uses "which" to try and work out which RAID utilities are on
the system
However, because nagios and nrpe run as a non-root user, it fails to
discover RAID utilities in /usr/sbin, /sbin, ... and therefore it
doesn't check those that it can't find
For nrpe, it is possible to work around it with the following in
/etc/nrpe.cfg:
command_prefix=/usr/sbin:/sbin:$PATH
I observed this particular problem with the hpacucli - I use the
packaged version which is in /usr/sbin
I've marked this bug as important because not monitoring RAID correctly
may lead to data loss

As check_raid makes extensive use of sudo, you just need to install
sudo and add something like the following to /etc/sudoers.d/
# cat /etc/sudoers.d/check_raid
nagios ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/hpasmcli
> I've marked this bug as important because not monitoring RAID

This bug would indeed just severity 'normal' as check_raid is just a
part of a plugins collection.
Anyways ... hpasmcli isn't part of Debian, so there is nothing to
worry about that.
Cheers, Jan.
