Okay as luck would have it I was just installing 2 master servers today so I got to see the same issue you are describing.
I am a long time nagios user and been using opsview for about 6 months so I personally would recommend the product. It appears they changed the service definition slightly from what it used to be. These steps fixed it for me.. Editing Service Check: Opsview Daemon Edit argument >From this: -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c check_procs -a '-a opsviewd -w 1:2 -c 1:2' To this: -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c check_procs -a '-C opsviewd -w 1:2 -c 1:2' Apply the config and things should be good. Based on check_procs looks like they were trying to match any string in a process with opsviewd.. -a, --argument-array=STRING Only scan for processes with args that contain STRING. --ereg-argument-array=STRING Only scan for processes with args that contain the regex STRING. -C, --command=COMMAND Only scan for exact matches of COMMAND (without path). Hope that works for you.

If Opsview cannot properly check how many of its own processes are running, it will be hard to justify to my boss the value proposition of Opsview over base nagios 3. I continue to have a Critical alert that 'PROCS CRITICAL: 4 processes with args 'opsviewd' for the service check. I changed the service check from the default "check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c check_procs -a '-a opsviewd -w 1:10 -c 1:12'" to the plugin 'check_procs' with the arguments "-a opsviewd -w 1:10 -c 1:12" Either way, I'm still getting Critical even though only one opsviewd process are running. Something is broken, I'm afraid and I sincerely appreciate any/all assistance. -- Joseph Filla Supervisor Systems Administrator Pioneer Research Center USA, Inc.
