Subject: [Nagios-users] Nagios check_ping times
I sporadically ( 1 or 2 times/day for 50 hosts) get check_ping
returing
average response times of 500ms plus resulting in false
"critical"
alerts from Nagios. E.G.
PING CRITICAL - Packet loss =
0%, RTA = 535.87 ms
I'm running Suse 9.1 on VMWare ESX server. I DO
NOT believe vmware to
be a factor because I also run smokeping on this
virtual machine.
SmokePing sends 3 pings every 5 seconds to the same
hosts and never
shows the 500ms+ latency that Nagios reports. During
the course of a
typical day I get 80-100 of these "false alarms"
I suspect
the problem is in the nagios daemon and how i have it
configured. When
i run check_ping manually i can't reproduce the
500ms+. Are there any
quick tests or diagnostics to help figure what's
going
on?
