<p class="MsoPlainText">We are in the process of setting up fail over monitoring for our existing Nagios server and are experiencing some problems with the 'check_nagios' plug-in. Specifically, it does not appear to recognize our full path command string.
Instead, we are only able to make it work by stripping down the command path to its basename (i.e., '/opt/iexpress/nagios/bin/nagios' versus 'nagios'). Our OS, Nagios core, and plug-in versions follow, as well as the process status output of our Nagios command
and the execution results from the 'check_nagios' plug-in. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.<o:p></o:p></p>
