Nagios 2.5 - Standard install to /usr/local/nagios/* Nagios Plugins 1.4.3 - Standard install to /usr/local/nagios/libexec SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 sp2 - Disks partitioned with LVM ( yes I have taken that into account in my check command I think) I am attempting to check disks on remote machines using NRPE. This works fine but I do net get the actual disk free figures displayed in the Service Detail view off the host. All I get displayed is "DISK OK - free space:" When I look at actual Service page I see that the Performance data shows the Disk free figures Service State Information Current Status: OK Status Information: DISK OK - free space: Performance Data: /=10840MB;11468;12901;-9223372036854775808;14335 Here is the relevant sections from my configs. From NRPE config file on monitored host /usr/local/etc/nrpe.cfg <UL> pid_file=/var/run/nrpe.pid server_port=5666 server_address=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx dont_blame_nrpe=0 nrpe_user=nagios nrpe_group=nagios debug=1 command_timeout=60 command[check_disk1]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -e -l -X iso9660 -X proc -x sysv -X tempfs -w 20% -c 10% -p / </UL> From "checkcommands.cfg" on monitoring host <UL> # ' check systems using nrpe to check remote / file system size define command{ command_name check_nrpe_root command_line $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c $ARG1$ </UL> From "services.cfg" on monitoring host <UL> # Free Space on remote system / partition define service{ use generic-service host_name h4oiap service_description Free Disk Space / is_volatile 0 check_period 24x7 max_check_attempts 3 normal_check_interval 5 retry_check_interval 1 contact_groups vsu-p notification_interval 120 notification_period 24x7 notification_options w,c,r check_command check_nrpe_root!check_disk1 </UL> When I execute the command as the nagios user on both the monitored and monitoring boxes I get the output below. As you can see the Monitored host reports the space free on the disk. Cool that’s what I want thanks.

Have I not escaped something in my configs.

I'm hopefull one off you eagle eyed blighters might spot it. All help gratefully received. Tom </BODY> </HTML>
