Hi there --

I am running Nagios 3.1.2 with the nrpe 2.12 client. One of the scripts that I
am using is the 
check_folder_size script. The Nagios server is on one subnet, while the client
is on another. 
The connection between the two is via a 10GB WAN connection. The script is
configured on
the client to send warnings when the folder in question reaches 500 gigabytes.
The entire 
disk that the folder is on is four terabytes. 

The script appears to be doing its job pretty well, but I notice that
occasionally I will get 
timeout issues with the script. I suspect the configuration of the script on the
Nagios server is 
the cause, and I wanted to get feedback as to the best settings to have for the
script. The current 
configuration is shown below:

# Service definition
define service{
        use                                     generic-service         ; Name
of service template to use

        host_name                       <hostname>
        service_description             Folder Size Active 1
        is_volatile                             0
        check_period                            24x7
        max_check_attempts         1
        normal_check_interval        1440
        retry_check_interval            720
        contact_groups                  linux-admins
        notification_interval                   1440
        notification_period                     24x7
        notification_options                    w,u,c,r
        check_command               check_nrpe!check_folder_size1
        }

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what settings would be better here?
Thanks.
