Do you have a host defined for each printer? Or do you have a single host, with multiple printer tests assigned? If you're using a single host per printer, passing in the IP address for the printer into the service is a little odd. The original definition for the command was OK, it looks like you probably just needed to drop the IP address. ie: define service { [...] check_command check_snmp_printer!public!CONSUM ALL } The command definition would get the host address from the other macros. You can then use hostgroups to assign services to a batch of printers that have the same tests. - -- Jon Angliss -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) - GPGshell v3.64 iEYEARECAAYFAkkNLuEACgkQK4PoFPj9H3MEXwCfesbTvw1/Iti1QY4fCyjCMwrJ 0vYAnAvJ/lD56gRoCXxhWWDN7SINEOiG =3+2z -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
