Why dont you specify the ARGS in the commands.cfg file?
i.e.
Commands.cfg
# 'check_local_memory' command definition
define command{
command_namecheck_local_memory
command_line$USER1$/check_memory -w 10% -c 5%
}
Services.cfg
define service{
use active-service
host_name ip- addresses
service_description check_local_memory
check_command check_local_memory
max_check_attempts 3
normal_check_interval 5
retry_check_interval 1
check_period 24x7
notification_interval 120
notification_period24x7
notification_options w,u,c,r
notifications_enabled 1
contact_groups CG_admin

Posting your check configuration is really helpful in cases like this. Its
almost impossible to give a good answer without knowing how youve set the
check up.

Hi all
I am using a simple plug-in to check the nagios server memory.
When I run it like user Nagios, it works perfectly. I see this output:
OK - free memory is 40% which is within expected threshold|
mem=40;10;5;0;100
When I run it with Nagios program I receive this notification:
..
Command: check_local_memory
State: WARNING

Any idea ?

Have you tried suing to the nagios user and running it from the command
line? I am betting its permissions issue.

Maybe the problem is in your notification command. It may not be reporting the
result correctly.

What user is your Nagios server running as? Is it the same as the user that
you are using on the command line? Could you post more details about the
exact check_memory command that you are using, there are several of them out
there. The output you are getting from Nagios, is this on the web gui, or
in one of the log files.
It could be many things related to the check scripts itself, who you are
running as where you are running the command. The command line is not
always the same as when the server executes.
