Depending on the kernel version used, you could use iotop to check

[Nagios-users] Migrating to v3
Hi,
I'm migrating our v2.x installation of nagios to 3.0.3 and i'm stuck
currently, can sameone check if i'm missing something here?:
Verification reports:
-
Error: Service description, host name, or check command is NULL
Error: Could not register service (config file
'/etc/nagios/objects/services/filesystems.win.cfg', starting on line

The old parameter was just "hostgroup" and according to the
documentation "hostgroup_name" can still replace the "host_name"
parameter

-

Hi,
I agree with S. Hopcroft, it must be a script error.
I suspect that you use performance output (-k option) : is it the case ?
Could you send the options you use with the script ? (command + service
definition ?) and the return of the script with -v option using these
options.

[Nagios-users] ePN error
Hi, i'm running nagios 2.5 with various perl scripts, just added
check_snmp_int.pl (http://www.manubulon.com/nagios/snmp_int.html) to the
mix, but i'm getting some ePN error when it gives CRITICAL status (it could
be a coincidence)
Output:
Serial2:DOWN: 1 int NOK : CRITICAL**ePN
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_snmp_int.pl: "Use of uninitialized value in
join or string at /usr/sbin/p1.pl line 72,".
According to the output, it's the TIEHANDLE sub
70: sub TIEHANDLE {
71:my ($class) = @_;
72:my $me = '';
73:bless \$me, $class;
74:}
Is this a problem with ePN (what i think, because of the output) or with the
script?
Thanks in advanced

[Nagios-users] Nagios Future
Hi, I've been using Nagios since version 1.1, right now we are using Nagios 2.5 version + Perfparse and i'm planning to implement Oreon on top of it but just found about ndoutils so i'm wondering how should i proceed, can the ndoutils replace perfparse?, would Oreon be pointless with the planned PHP version of the interfase?, it seems that the ndoutils would make posible running many nagios monitoring processes/hosts with the same data backend (great HA), at least that's what i understood. Is viable a migration of data from perfparse to ndoutils? Any comments? Thanks in advanced, Ciro - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
