Add this to your "/etc/sudoers" file using visudo "nagios ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/StorMan/arcconf GETCONFIG 1 *" ## On RHEL & possibly others ## Disable "Defaults requiretty" in /etc/sudoers otherwise the command will not run via NRPE. Add this to your checkcommands.cfg define command { command_name check_aacraid command_line $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c check_aacraid } Add this to your servicedefs.cfg define service { use low-service-level name aacraid-service service_description aacraid check_command check_aacraid register 0 notification_interval 3600 } Add the service define service { use aacraid-service host_name host-with-crap-adaptec-crud contact_groups upset-admin } And on the host you will be checking add this to nrpe.cfg command[check_aacraid]=/usr/local/sbin/check-aacraid.py

Nice check, needs a few updates
by stefanlasiewski, April 30, 2014
I'm pleased with this update but I had to modify the python code to replace the deprecated classes os.popen4 .

I wish these projects were on github so that we could contribute fixes.

Update recommended
by mwellnitz, December 31, 2011
Good tool. But i got an
check-aacraid.py:47: DeprecationWarning: os.popen4 is deprecated.
check-aacraid.py:60: DeprecationWarning: os.popen4 is deprecated.

Please add this changes:
* after the includes
from subprocess import PIPE, Popen
* change line 47 to:
for line in Popen(["/usr/bin/sudo","/usr/StorMan/arcconf" , "GETCONFIG","1","LD"], stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE, close_fds=True).stdout:
* change line 60 to:
for line in Popen(["/usr/bin/sudo","/usr/StorMan/arcconf" , "GETCONFIG","1","AD"], stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE, close_fds=True).stdout:

And no Depricated warnungs will appear at ubuntu 10.04 LTS

Thanks for your good tool

PS: switching to WARNING State when Battery is loading creates too much messages. So i deleted that Feature (quick and dirty):
[...]
if bstatus.group(1) == "Charging":
#if check_status

Tweak: arrconf for Solaris located at /opt/StorMan/arcconf
by skayser, April 30, 2010
Thanks for this comprehensive check. I have tweaked the script so that it can also deal with arcconf on Solaris which is located under /opt/StorMan (not /usr/StorMan), plus added a readable version of the Nagios status code to the output.

I don't know how patches are handled around here, so I have uploaded a small patch to

http://pastebin.com/AQQi2GFd

in the meantime. Would you mind merging it?

No need for global requiretty
by SupaDucta, October 31, 2009
Thanks for the working and most useful plugin :)

One small suggestion, though.

There is no need for disabling requiretty globally:

Defaults requiretty

Much safer and tighter is to disable requiretty only for the user nagios runs as:

nagios ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/StorMan/arcconf GETCONFIG 1 *
Defaults:nagios !requiretty
