[Nagiosplug-checkins] Assistance needed with check_procs running on
AIX<BR><BR></FONT></DIV><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>Hello,</FONT>
<BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>Joined this mailing-list just the other
day, mainly because I have a problem with the check_procs-plugin. On Linux the
plugin works just fine, but I've also compiled the plugin for use on several
AIX 4.3.3-servers (I know, it's almost outdated ;-) and there it exits with an
"segmentation fault" or an "illegal instruction"-error. Looked on the
nagios-plugin-site for newer releases (we're running v1.3.0 still) and found
the v1.3.1-release. But, after compilation of these sources the same problem
exists.</FONT> <BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>A bit more
in-depth:</FONT> <BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>For the 1.3.0-sources to
work I already had to modify the configure.in-file to provide a ps-command
with the correct parameters and to interpret these parameters in the (I
thought) correct way. After compilation and testing the check_procs-command
seemed to work just fine and the plugin was implemented in our
checking-procedures via Nagios. However, after a number of days that
AIX-system suddenly gave an "segmentation failure" (rc=139) when running the
check. The check-results however were correct. Not sure what exactly changed
on that system, but 2 other more-or-less identical AIX-servers don't have that
problem. Furthermore, another system, which runs an AIX-4.3.3-version, but on
a Bull-platform, also suddenly came up with errors regarding this check. In
this case the errormessage was "illegal instruction" (rc=132), but with the
same type of problems just stated.</FONT> <BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif
size=2>I imagine that these errors may be a result of the changed
configure.in-parms I've mentioned earlier, but I'm very curious why this
didn't occur in the first place and secondly, what to do about it...... I know
almost for sure that the problem will disappear when I reboot the system, but
that's not an option (at least not for this minor glitch).</FONT>
<BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>Can anyone help me with this? I can
provide details on the changed configure.in-parms (or any other topic) if
necessary.</FONT> <BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>With kind
regards,</FONT> <BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2> L.
