I was just looking at this and I believe that it is, at least for your OS/partition type/plugin version combination. Check_disk doesn't use df but rather system calls directly via popen.c. Maybe something is wrong there. The clue is that your results are incorrect both in your performance data and in your verbose output indicating that it's might be getting either incorrect or no parseable information back from the system calls. I'd try the CVS version to make sure that it isn't something that's corrected, and if that doesn't work, bounce the question over to nagios-plugins, providing the information above as well as your OS/version and filesystem type you are checking. They'll be more familiar with the internal workings of the plugin. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
