The documentation page seems to suggest that the -d option should be a slightly longer than the check interval. http://nagios.manubulon.com/snmp_int.html If there's anything in your nagios system which will cause the nagios daemon to do something other than scheduling checks for a few seconds, then with a 10s standard interval it wouldn't take much to throw the plugin off kilter. I don't know for sure which activities would do this, but suspect one would be writing to the status.dat file and another might be processing the command file. Having said that, with the check_snmp_int.pl plugin allowing up to 300% of the -d value before complaining, it should be fairly forgiving. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer -- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE!
