[Nagios-users] check_procs and negating regex in --ereg-argument-array
All,
Is it possible to negate the regular expression used in
--ereg-argument-array with check_procs?
We want to ignore one of the processes running on a machine but when we
try to use negative lookahead the regex is not processed correctly
because it reads ! as a bash internal command:
./check_procs -w 25 -c 35 -m CPU -v --ereg-argument-array=^((?!john).)*$
./check_procs -w 25 -c 35 -m CPU -v --ereg-argument-array=^((?john
--show passwd.ldap).)*$
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('
And the Nagios web output shows: NRPE: Unable to read output
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Best Regards,
Camron

Re: [Nagios-users] check_procs and negating regex in --ereg-argument-array
To get around the issue of bash interpreting your regex characters as
something else, simply wrap the regex in single quotes:
./check_procs -w 25 -c 35 -m CPU -v --ereg-argument-array='^((?!john).)*$'

[Nagios-users] Nagios - can it send email when leaving a service comment?
I'd like nagios to send an email after I leave a service comment through the web dashboard. The purpose of this would be that it would send a mail to the contact list that someone is working on the issue at hand and to track this information over time (how long it takes to resolve and issue and what the solution was and so forth). Is support for Nagios being able to send a mail when leaving a service comment built in? -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
