I’ve got two instances of opsview running. Both machines have Dell

adding a new plugin here http://docs.opsview.org/doku.php?id=opsview3.10:unix_customise_agentseemed
straight forward and so I set out to make it work.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t. When the plugin is placed in /usr/local/
nagios/libexec/nrpe_local with the appropriate config file entry in /
usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe_local/override.cfg pointing to the script,
the script is never found – it does not show in the plugin dropdown
list when adding a new service check. Note that I have stopped and
restarted opsview-agent as well as nagios (opsview) itself.
So your issue is that the plugin does not get listed in the service
check edit pages in the drop down list?
This is not possible because this is a "local" plugin, so it doesn't
make sense for it to run from the Opsview master. You have to use
check_nrpe to execute it, so it will not show on the Opsview master
(if the plugin was, say, an OS/400 check, there's no way the Opsview
master would be able to represent that).
Your process of putting it in nrpe_local with an appropriate
command[check_megaraid] is the way to go. However, we don't do
anything with regards to distributing this new agent to your remote
hosts.
