[Nagios-users] Nagios Plugins glibc

2010-01-21 Thread steve f

 I have been building a sandbox to set up Nagios 3.2.0 and so far everything 
has been fine.  I am using the nagios-plugins-1.4.13 with Nagios 3.

A large number of the clients we need to monitor ( about 1200 ) are running 
SuSE SLES-8 (i386)
VERSION = 8.1

I was trying to set up one of these servers to run a check_disk via 
check_by_ssh and was having a problem.  I tried to run the check_disk locally 
on one of these test servers and got the message that the plugin needed glibc 
2.4

./check_disk: /lib/tls/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by 
./check_disk)

We are running glibc-2.2.5-235

I copied the plugin from the plugin directory on my host server which is 
running glibc 2.4.  

Is my problem that I copied a plugin that was compiled on a server running 
glibc 2.4?

Can I run an older set of plugings on the servers with the older glibc?

Anyone know the nagios-plugin version # ?

Can I continue to keep my host server running 3.2 and have clients running 
older versions of the plugins?

Thanks,
Steve

Yes.

Yes, or you can compile the newer plugins on the destination server so that 
they use glibc 2.2.5.

 Anyone know the nagios-plugin version # ?

Version number doesn't matter. Any will do if you compile them on that machine. 
What matters is what dependencies a pre-compiled *package* you've chosen to use 
has. If you're depending on finding an pre-existing package, you'll need to 
search the repositories available for your OS for either an older or newer 
version of the plugins that expects 2.2.5.

 older versions of the plugins?

Yes, plugin version is not tied to nagios version.
