no OID issue and a minor update for warning levels
by commando677, August 31, 2013

If you get a no OID found this occurs if you have no alerts/warnings or information at all to report, the error kind of threw me for a loop to. I just commented that No OID found as long as I verified I was connecting correctly already. I also made a modification to the faults check to report warnings correctly to Nagios. Here is the modified section I did. if($type eq "fs") { if($results[$i] > 4) { $exit_state = NAGIOS_CRITICAL; $output .= " " . $descriptions[$i] . " "; } if($results[$i] == 4) { if ($exit_state ne NAGIOS_CRITICAL) { $exit_state = NAGIOS_WARNING; } $output .= " " . $descriptions[$i] . " "; } next; }


No OID match! Check your -H and -N or -T

[nagios@nagios libexec]$ ./check_ucs.bin -H 10.10.10.1 -C public -T ci -N chassis-2 No OID match! Check your -H and -N or -T We have six chassis, only fail in 2 and 5,6. The state of all chassis is ok and we haven't any alarm.


It's not work

Bug detected
by salvador.garcia, January 31, 2013

The plugin is excellent, but i have detected a bug. When I check a different IP of the UCS, I must receive an error but I receive "0 objects OK".
