Hello list
I am getting some wrong information when checking some of my
switches, as you can see here (from the web interface):
SW-14 ALIVE CRITICAL 30-03-2006 11:16:52 0d 0h 22m 10s 3/3
CRITICAL - Host Unreachable (y.y.y.y)
SW-14 PORT 24 OK 30-03-2006 11:17:03 0d 19h 43m 48s 1/3
NRPE: Unable to read output
My question is: is it correct that NRPE returns OK when unable to
read the output? In my opinion, it should return a critical alert or at
least an unknown state.
That's not the only example; in some cases I get OK for "NRPE:
Unable to read output" even when the switch is up.
That's my configuration for the involved services/hosts/checks/nrpe.
Understand that I can't check the host directly as that switch is behind
a firewall - so that I use the nrpe_master host to query them.
define host {
use default_host
check_command check_tcp!5666
host_name nrpe_master
alias NRPE MASTER
address x.x.x.x
}
define service {
use default_service
host_name nrpe_master
service_description SW-14 ALIVE
check_command check_nrpe!check-host-alive!y.y.y.y
}
define service {
use default_service
host_name nrpe_master
service_description SW-14 PORT 24
check_command
check_nrpe!check_snmp_int!y.y.y.y!161!public!'Port 24 on Unit 1'
}
define command {
command_name check_nrpe
command_line $USER1$/check_nrpe -t 30 -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c
$ARG1$ -a $ARG2$ $ARG3$ $ARG4$ $ARG5$ $ARG6$ $ARG7$ $ARG8$ $ARG9$

}
