Hi All/Jim/Marc-Andre, Thanks for the response. I was actually able to figure it out while waiting - I didn't RTFM - not all at first :-)
Here is what I did in case someone else finds it useful (and if possible correct me if I am wrong): # cd /usr/local/nagios/etc/pnp/check_commands # cp -a check_nwstat.cfg-sample check_nrpe.cfg # grep CUSTOM_TEMPLATE check_nrpe.cfg CUSTOM_TEMPLATE = 0,1 # cd /usr/local/nagios/share/pnp # cp -a templates.dist/check_swap.php templates/check_nrpe_check_dsk_swap.php # /etc/init.d/npcd restart Jim: The SWAP graph looks OK and I haven't noticed any changes in the other graphs (CPU, RAM, filesystems, PING, etc) - possibly because the check_nrpe defaults are the same as in the nwstat.cfg-sample file I created the check_nrpe.cfg from, and the check_nrpe_check_dsk_swap.php is only used for the SWAP graph while the default check_nrpe settings continues to be used for the other graphs? Marc-Andre: I assume apart from just placing your SWAP template in the templates directory, I still need to create the check_nrpe.cfg and check_nrpe_check_dsk_swap.php files as I did above? Will try your template in a minute ... Ach! I lost all my SWAP history by deleting the RRDs! Thanks again. Regards.
