Odd Problem with check_yum on one server...

[Tech Support]

It seems to me that yum is simply located somewhere else on that server. Try
"which yum".

Regards;

John

Greetings,

  I'm hoping someone might be able to provide a hint on this issue.  Its
strange, it happens only on one of my CentOS 6.4 servers.

Nagios server reports /usr/bin/yum not found when executing the following
test:



[root at nagios ~]# sudo -u nagios /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H
test.example.com -c check_yum -a noarg
UNKNOWN: /usr/bin/yum cannot be found

 

Over on test.example.com:



[root at test ~]# ps -ef|grep nrpe|grep -v grep
nrpe     20038     1  0 Sep10 ?        00:00:22 /usr/sbin/nrpe -c
/etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg -d
[root at test ~]# sudo -u nrpe /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_yum 
YUM OK: 0 Security Updates Available. 15 Non-Security Updates Available | 




Again, I have other CentOS servers monitored using the same check_yum
command configured on the Nagios server, they all work fine - including the
Nagios server itself which is monitored through nrpe.



Thank you for your time and consideration, kind regards,
