check_nt usage query

[Broughton, Brian]

I switched to using check_nrpe, it allows the use of ShowAll type=physical. My experience with check_nt it includes both physical memory and virtual memory.

Hi,


We are using the check_nt (MEMUSE) plugin to monitor the memory of a server. The server has actually 16G of physical memory.

But the output is:

/usr/local/groundwork/nagios/libexec/check_nt -H xxx.xx.xx.xx -p 12489 -v MEMUSE -w 80 -c 90 -t 120

Memory usage: total:22439.84 Mb - used: 8713.17 Mb (39%) - free: 13726.67 Mb (61%) | 'Memory usage'=8713.17Mb;179

What memory is it monitoring? .Please advise.
