Running Zenoss version 2.4.1
CentOS Vesrion 5.x

There have been quite a few posts about Check_Ping not working correctly with 
errors about Missing RRD files. Gathered from various posts on the forum,here's 
a summary of how i got this to work for me:

1) If you are on CentOS, which I am, make sure the zCommandPath for each device 
is "/opt/zenoss/libexec/".
2) If you are trying to Check_ping something like "Crappy_NONSNMP_Router" make 
sure that is the actual name of the device. In my case the device that I called 
"Crappy_NONSNMP_Router" was in fact called "Router_1". I found this out after 
actually pinging the IP address of the device. Change the name of the device in 
Zenoss to what the system thinks the device is called. In this case "Router_1"
3) Go to /Devices/Ping/Router_1 ( or whatever your path is in zenoss) and make 
sure the NagiosCheckPing template is one of the templates bound to the device.
4) Click on the NagiosCheckping templateunder the device, then under "Data 
Sources" click on "ipcheck"
5) Click on the test button next to "test against device". You should get good 
data at this point. If you do get good data, then problem solved.

Thanks to all the posters who through many different posts I found and compiled 
the above.
