This means that the query now takes a sufficiently long time for the test to timeout. What you need to do is: 1. Switch the check to being a passive check (as per my recommendation in the documentation on the NagiosExchange page), otherwise you'd have to increase the nagios global check timeout which affects all plugins and is not my preferred solution. 2. Increase the timeout on the plugin if necessary using the -t switch. -h -- Hari Sekhon ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
