Hi All,
I'm currently evaluating Nagios for use in our company and I've run in to a
small problem. For some reason the nrpe plugin is ignoring the $HOSTADDRESS$
argument and always returns stats for the localhost. The relevant parts of the
configuration files are as follows:
/etc/nagios/nagios.cfg:
-----------------------
cfg_dir=/etc/nagios/hosts
/etc/nagios/commands.cfg:
-------------------------
define command{
command_name check_nrpe
command_line $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c $ARG1$
}
/etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg:
---------------------
command[check_disk1]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk -w 10% -c 5% -p /
hostX:/etc/nrpe.cfg:
--------------------
command[check_disk1]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 10% -c 5% -p /
/etc/hosts/hostX.cfg:
---------------------
define host{
use linux-server ; Name of host template
to use
host_name hostX
alias hostX
address 192.168.1.1
}
define service{
use remote-service ; Name of
service template to use
host_name hostX
service_description Root Partition
check_command check_nrpe!check_disk1
}
If I change the check_nrpe command line in commands.cfg and the check_command
of the hostX.cfg file to the following it works, but I don't want to repeat the
hostname over and over as it will make adding new hosts awkward:
command_line $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$
check_command check_nrpe!hostX!check_disk1
Please would somebody advise me why the $HOSTADDRESS$ argument isn't working??
Thanks,
Haydn.
