I am running nagios version 2.0rc2 with nagios-plugins version 1.4.1. In the commands file I issue a local command on the server using the check_nagios plugin like this:
$USER1$/check_nagios -F /var/log/nagios/status.log -e 5 -C /usr/bin/nagios >From the web interface I get the following message: Nagios problem: located 2 processes, status log updated 1139840775 seconds ago If I issue the command on the server, that is, as; /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nagios -F /var/log/nagios/status.log -e 5 -C /usr/bin/nagios I get the message: Nagios problem: located 1 process, status log updated 1139840299 seconds ago >From this I have 3 questions: a) why the difference in the number of processes b) why does the log file use timestamps using the number of seconds since 1st Jan 1970 (I could not find a configuration option to control this) c) why the warning about the update of the status log file Many thanks in advance Jonathan Wheeler e-Science Centre Rutherford Appleton Laboratory ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
