Hello all,
Is it meant for the "check_ping" command from the Nagios plugins to not
function when using a host name instead of an IP address? I have a handful of
hosts that I've setup within Nagios that I want to monitor the ping time (as
well as a few other items) on, but since they are dhcp clients, I have the host
within Nagios setup with the hostname on my local network instead of an IP
address.
When I do a simple check_ping using the hostname (which I have entered as the
local FQDN, not just a short name), it returns a "Network Unreachable" error.
Example:
nagios@nagios:/usr/local/nagios/libexec$ ./check_ping -H dceola.twgi.net -w
400,20% -c 600,50%
CRITICAL - Network Unreachable (dceola.twgi.net)
Thanks,
Daniel Ceola
