When using check_snmp to check cpu usage on a host, I get warnings even when the retrieved value falls within an acceptable range. Assuming that my syntax was wrong, I tried multiple variations, but the result is the same. Does anyone have a solution to this problem? Here is the session: Note the different values and syntax for the -w (warning) and -c (critical) inputs. monitor-server# ./check_snmp -v -H 192.168.123.156 -o .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.1 -w 100: -c 90: -C public /usr/local/bin/snmpget -t 1 -r 9 -m ALL -v 1 -c public 192.168.123.156:161 .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.1 HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrProcessorLoad.1 = INTEGER: 1 SNMP CRITICAL - *1* monitor-server# ./check_snmp -v -H 192.168.123.156 -o .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.1 -w 100: -c :90 -C public /usr/local/bin/snmpget -t 1 -r 9 -m ALL -v 1 -c public 192.168.123.156:161 .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.1 HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrProcessorLoad.1 = INTEGER: 1 SNMP WARNING - *1* monitor-server# ./check_snmp -v -H 192.168.123.156 -o .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.1 -w :100 -c :90 -C public /usr/local/bin/snmpget -t 1 -r 9 -m ALL -v 1 -c public 192.168.123.156:161 .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.1 HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrProcessorLoad.1 = INTEGER: 2 SNMP WARNING - 2 monitor-server# ./check_snmp -v -H 192.168.123.156 -o .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.1 -w 100:0 -c :90 -C public /usr/local/bin/snmpget -t 1 -r 9 -m ALL -v 1 -c public 192.168.123.156:161 .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.1 HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrProcessorLoad.1 = INTEGER: 1 SNMP WARNING - *1* monitor-server# ./check_snmp -v -H 192.168.123.156 -o .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.1 -w 0:100 -c :90 -C public /usr/local/bin/snmpget -t 1 -r 9 -m ALL -v 1 -c public 192.168.123.156:161 .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.1 HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrProcessorLoad.1 = INTEGER: 2 SNMP WARNING - 2 monitor-server# ./check_snmp -v -H 192.168.123.156 -o .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.1 -w 0:70 -c :90 -C public /usr/local/bin/snmpget -t 1 -r 9 -m ALL -v 1 -c public 192.168.123.156:161 .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.1 HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrProcessorLoad.1 = INTEGER: 1 SNMP WARNING - 1 Bill Barkell Bill Barkell </BODY> </HTML>
