Re: [Nagios-users] check_nt - MEMORY USAGE - incorrect results
Not entirely accurate. I just started troubleshooting a Win2008 R2 system yesterday - it has 16GB of physical RAM + 16 GB pagefile for a total of 32GB of virtual memory. The system is using 10.9GB of physical RAM, yet check_nt tells me it's using 2.69GB. Completely wrong, even if check_nt was only talking about physical, only talking about virtual, or talking about the sum. Solution? Remove yet another checkcommand using that outdated program. Benny this because in your server 2008 you will see that there is a virtual memory activated, go to Computer proprieties and see in performences you will have for exemple for R2 (x64) server box (has SQL installed on it) 12GB ram installed 12GB of virtual memory.Finaly, Nagios take the some of memories ( virual memory + RAM). 2013/1/9 Andrew Thompson and...@fulgent.co.uk Hi all, ** ** Using the supplied check_nt plugin to check Memory Usage on Windows servers. ** ** Some report correctly, others report a complete load of old tosh!!! ** ** I have tried 3 different versions of Windows OS, the version seems to make no odds.
