The arguments go in your service definition on the check_command line, separated from each other and the command name by "!". So in your case, you would have a check_command line something like: check_command check_mysql!<arg1>!<arg2>!<arg3> where <arg1> <arg2> and <arg3> are respectively whatever you need for the -P, -u and -p switches to check_mysql. ----------------------------------------------- Israel Brewster Computer Support Technician Frontier Flying Service Inc. 5245 Airport Industrial Rd Fairbanks, AK 99709 (907) 450-7250 x293 ----------------------------------------------- > > > Here is what i have so far in commands.cfg > > define command{ > command_name check_mysql > command_line $USER1$/check_mysql -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -P $ARG1$ > -u $ARG2$ -p $ARG3$ > } > > and my services.cf file... > > define service{ > use generic-service ; Name > of service template > hostgroup_name mysql_servers > service_description MYSQL > is_volatile 0 > check_period 24x7 > max_check_attempts 3 > normal_check_interval 3 > retry_check_interval 1 > contact_groups admins > notification_interval 30 > notification_period 24x7 > notification_options w,u,c,r > check_command check_mysql > } > > > Thanks! > > > > Disclaimer: The information contained in this transmission, > including any > attachments, may contain confidential information of Panasonic > Avionics > Corporation.
