Hi.
 
Is anyone having any luck with Dell's Nagios plugin, dell_check_status?
 
I'm testing it right now, thinking that using something official may be a better idea, but it really doesn't seem to be working correctly.
 
My first problem is that the example check commands don't work. I have to add a double minus before each command (for example change check_dell_status!sysbattery-data to check_dell_status!--sysbattery-data). Minor problem I know, but it is worrying when something like that creeps into the official release. Either that or I am doing something spectacularly wrong. 
 
The second problem is a lot more troublesome. No matter what I do I can't seem to get Nagios to accept the status information. All I get is (null).
 
I am an experienced Nagios user and the plugin was announced on this list, so can anyone help me to get it to actually work?
 
Regards,
 
Mark Baxter
