Dell's Nagios Plugin

[Mark Baxter]

Charles,

 

As a Dell employee, do you know if anyone checks those forums? I ask as right now they don't seem to have any posts whatsoever in them.

 

Regards,

 

Mark

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
