question about check_nt Plugin

[Wieczorek, Krystian]

Hello Team,

I have a question/problem related to check_nt plugin.

I use this plugin for many things including checking CPU load. Some time ago I noticed that the plugin returns incorrect values regarding the CPU, all the time returns CPU Load 0% (60 min average).

Restarting the server or restarting the nsclient (nscp) service solves the problem but only for a while. E.g. after restarting the NSCP service everything works for about 2, 3 days and then it stops working again. Other values the plugin returns correctly.

Today I started the process monitor on one of the servers. When plugin returns erroneous CPU data in process monitor, I only see connections from Nagios Core server to client. Nothing more

After restarting the nscp service, the plugin returns the correct data about the CPU and process monitor looks like this:

Here you can see the connections from the Nagios server to the client, and you can also see behind the Nsclient checks for values in the registry (performance counters).



Do you have any idea what could be the problem?

Many thanks
Krystian
