Hi Philip,<div><br></div><div>Thanks very much for that I tweaked the check_nrpe command to take a second argument for the nrpe port. All working now.</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers</div><div><br></div><div>Ed<br><br><div class="gmail_quote"> On 12 April 2010 22:21, Philip Marcus <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:pmarcus@factual.com">pmarcus@factual.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"> Hi Ed,<br><br>You'll probably need to add a second NRPE command definition in your commands.cfg file.<br>You can hardcode the port value in there.<br><br>Conversely, you can customize the existing check_nrpe command definition and have it pull the port number from your services definition file as one of the variables. <br> <br>ex: <br>commands.cfg<br><br># check nrpe<br>define command{<br> command_name check_nrpe<br> command_line $USER1$/check_nrpe -t 55 -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c $ARG1$ -p $ARG2$<br> }<br><br><br>services.cfg<br> # NRPE services<br>define service{<br> use generic-service<br> host_name server1<br> service_description Current Load<br> check_command check_nrpe!check_load!5667<br> notifications_enabled 1<br> }<br><br>Hope this makes sense.
