Looking through the NDO source code, I see where it has the ability to write to the perfdata column. I think the problem lies within the “submit_check_results” command. It doesn’t really send the performance data, but rather drops it. Here is my output: ./check_snmp_int -H 10.1.1.1 -C public -n -f em1:UP, em0:UP, exp0:UP:3 UP: OK | 'em1_in_octet'=381357882c 'em1_out_octet'=1161492429c 'em0_in_octet'=1464302566c 'em0_out_octet'=550763402c 'exp0_in_octet'=70379851c 'exp0_out_octet'=56255289c I think it has to do with the single quotes and the “|” (pipe) . I by far am no programmer. My submit_check_result is the typical one that comes with Nagios. Here it is: #!/bin/sh # Arguments: # $1 = host_name (Short name of host that the service is # associated with) # $2 = svc_description (Description of the service) # $3 = state_string (A string representing the status of # the given service - "OK", "WARNING", "CRITICAL" # or "UNKNOWN") # $4 = plugin_output (A text string that should be used # as the plugin output for the service checks) # # Convert the state string to the corresponding return code return_code=-1 case "$3" in OK) return_code=0 ;; WARNING) return_code=1 ;; CRITICAL) return_code=2 ;; UNKNOWN) return_code=3 ;; esac /usr/bin/printf "%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\n" "$1" "$2" "$return_code" "$4" | /usr/local/nagios/libexec/send_nsca -H <HOST> -to 15 -c /usr/local/nagios/etc/send_nsca.cfg Thoughts?

Hello Everyone, For some odd reason, I have it in my head that you can write performance data into the NDO tables via a service check command. I have looked at PerfParse, but quite frankly, adding on, yet another add-on seems like more work than it should be. I’m looking for bandwidth utilization type performance, uptime, interface errors, etc. I would like to write that the perfdata column for the ndo_servicestatus table. I can use the check_snmp check for the interface errors, and write the data. But I wonder if that’s the correct direction. Am I off base here, or do I need another cup of coffee? Thanks in advance, Mike<a name=""></a> </div> </body> </html>
