[Massey, Craig]

A perfmon command I use.

define command{
        name            check_nt_pagingfile
        command_name    check_nt_pagingfile
        command_line    $USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 1248 -s $USER3$
-v COUNTER -l "\Paging File(_Total)\% Usage","Paging File usage is %.2f %%"
-w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$
        }

Need some brainstorming if you guys can see anything wrong with my config. I
only have this problem when I'm using check_nt for counter monitoring on NT
servers. Basically, I can get accurate integer returns when I type in the
check_nt command manually from a command line for a specific server, but
when I use the .cfg I get a "0" value in Nagios. Any ideas?  Here's my check
command:

# 'check_nt_sql_userconnections' command definition
define command{
        command_name    check_nt_sql_userconnections
        command_line    $USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 1248 -v COUNTER
-l “\\SQLServer:General Statistics\\User Connections”,”User Connections: %.f
” -w 80 -c 90

Here's my services.cfg entry:

define service{
	use				generic-service		; Name of
service template to use

	host_name			Datawarehouse
	service_description		SQL USER CONNECTIONS
	is_volatile			0
	check_period			24x7
	max_check_attempts		3
	normal_check_interval		3
	retry_check_interval		1
	contact_groups			nt-admins
	notification_interval		120
	notification_period		24x7
	notification_options		w,u,c,r
	check_command			check_nt_sql_userconnections
	}


I've tried using one backslash, 2 backslashes, in multiple orders, and
playing with different -v and -c values, all to no avail.
