Monitoring 64-bit and 32-bit servers - plugin path problem

[Kenneth Holter]

Hello all.


I've set up Nagios to monitor a few 64-bit machines, and this seems to be
working correctly. For example, my command for checking a remote disk is
defined like this:


define command{
        command_name    check_remote_disk
        command_line    /somepath/check_by_ssh <args> -C
"/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_disk <remote args>"
}

This command executes /usr/*lib64*/nagios/plugins/check_disk on the remote
system. On 32-bit systems, on the other hand, the path to the plugin is
/usr/*lib*/nagios/plugins/check_disk. It thus looks like I have to
differentiate between 32-bit and 64-bit commands, and in effect devide the
configuration itself in a 32-bit section and 64-bit section.

I'm sure there is a neat way of solving this, and could use some advice. I
guess I could symlink all over the place to get things going, but there are
probably a better way of doing this.

Kenneth Holter
