NRPE with user-supplied args: NRPE doesn't seem to get args

[Guy Waugh]

Hi again,

Thanks to Steve Shipway for pointing out this:

# 'check_nrpe' command definition
 >define command{
 >         command_name    check_nrpe
 >         command_line    $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c $ARG1$
 >         }

 > check_command                   check_nrpe!check_users!5!10


This is your problem.  You have defined the command with ONE argument, 
but you are calling it with THREE.  Therefore, this command will expand 
up to be

$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c check_users

but with no additional parameters.  You need

command_line    $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c $ARG1$ -a $ARG2$ 
$ARG3$

for this to work.

Steve

This does indeed work. I actually added up to $ARG6$ after the '-a' to 
deal with plugins that take more arguments.

Regards,
Guy.
