Hi All
I'm using Nagios (on Debian Sarge) to monitor our servers and I'm having difficulties getting chack_snmp to work.
If I use the command `snmpget -v1 -m /root/DELL_10892.mib -c public myserver powerSupplyStatus.1.1`
I get the result : MIB-Dell-10892::powerSupplyStatus.1.1 = INTEGER: ok(3)
I'm pretty happy with that, but I need check_snmp to report back to nagios.
From the MIB I can see the following...
DellStatus ::= INTEGER {
other(1), -- the status of the object is not one of the following:
unknown(2), -- the status of the object is unknown
-- (not known or monitored)
ok(3), -- the status of the object is ok
nonCritical(4), -- the status of the object is warning, non-critical
critical(5), -- the status of the object is critical (failure)
nonRecoverable(6) -- the status of the object is non-recoverable (dead)
}
So for Nagios I expected the following to work…
`./check_snmp -C public -H myserver -o powerSupplyStatus.1.1 -w 4 -c 5:6`
results : SNMP CRITICAL - *3*
Have I misunderstood how the warning and critical thresholds work ?
Can anyone help ?
I feel I'm close, if I can crack this I'll be set.
thanks
