nagios check scripts

[Charles Freukes]

trying to set up my UT box for nagios monitoring

I'm familiar with Nagios. I followed the NRPE How to.

NRPE Responds

[root@villamgt01p nagios]# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H 10.1.10.4
NRPE v2.12

My issue is the check scripts. They are not in the correct location and I can't find where they installed.

They usually end up in /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/. I don't have that directory in my UT box.

The locate command does not work in the UT shell. Any ideas?

Here is the nrpe.cfg we use internally:

command[check_pgsql]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_pgsql -H localhost -l untangle -d uvm
command[check_rails]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_procs -w 1:1 -c 1: -a /usr/bin/mongrel_rails
command[check_uvm]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_procs -w 1:1 -c 1: -a /usr/bin/uvm
command[check_spamd]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_procs -w 1:1 -c 1: -a /usr/sbin/spamd
command[check_load]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_load --warning=7.0,6.0,5.0 --critical=10.0,8.0,6.0

You'll need to copy the check scripts to /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/ yourself as well as installing the nrpe server and opening the packet filter.

oh, I just figured the checks would be installed with the app. I'll give it a shot, thanks

Thanks for posting this! Adding these to one of my dev boxes. check_pgsql plugin is giving the following error when i run the following command to test the plugin:

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_pgsql -H localhost -l untangle -d uvm

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_pgsql: error while loading shared libraries: libpq.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
