FW: Correct Syntax for check_flexlm (fwd)

[Kaplan, Andrew H.]

Sg,

I am including the utils.pm, check_flexlm, and nrpe.cfg files for your perusal.

I am not having any luck, getting the check_flexlm plug-in to work. 

Thanks in advance for the help...

Hi Sg,

I ran the command ./check_flexlm -F=/exports/apps/matlab/etc/lmstat and got the
following results:

1. A series of lines that read USE OF UNINITIALIZED VALUE IN CONCATENATION (.)
OR STRING AT ./CHECK_FLEXLM LINE 87, <CMD> LINE 12.
2. These were followed by the line LICENSE SERVER NOT RUNNING

I ran the lmstat command itself and it confirmed the license was up an running.

Can you run it on the cmdline on the nrpe server? 

Is the error from the plugin or via check_nrpe?
