Nice! There is a better updated alternative now.

Nice plugin with a few flaws.
I made the modifications suggested by other comments here and a few other small changes. I named the "new" plugin check_snmp_ibm_imm-ng, which can also be found here on exchange.nagios.org.
Thank you ulric!

Works well on x3550 M4
by johnj_123, April 30, 2015
CPU temp critical reading in MIB is 0. Added this check to avoid false critical on CPU temp.

if test "$tempCritical" -gt 0 -a "$tempTemp" -ge "$tempCritical";

Suggestion for enhancement
by rogerrb, January 31, 2014
We got a new IBM x3550 M4 Server, and this server has a temperature sensor named “Mezz Card Temp” that always give 0 as the temperature. This sensors looks like it is for an optional Mezzanine card that is not installed in this server. To avoid this server to always report warning on temparature, I had to modify the script to report OK on sensors that have a Fatal temparature level of 0. My modified temparature check looks like this:
if test "$tempFatal" -eq "0"; then
STATUS=0
elif test "$tempTemp" -ge "$tempCritical"; then
STATUS=2
elif test "$tempTemp" -ge "$tempNoncritical"; then
STATUS=1
fi

Return value for non-critical errors
by damn-86, January 31, 2014
Excellent plugin!
I was wondering about the return value for non-critical errors. (critical/red)
But it wasn't a problem to change this value to "1" (warning/yellow). This makes more sense to me.

Line 103:
4 )
RESULT="Health status: non-critical error"
STATUS=1
;;

Minor changes for Solaris
by pdp11, January 31, 2011
This plugin works well for x3620 M3 servers.

As with many plugins, the assumption is that Nagios runs on Linux. When running this plugin on Solaris, the instances of "grep -F" need to be changed to use /usr/xpg4/bin/grep, instead of the default grep in /usr/bin.
Owner's Reply:

Thanks for the comment. Posix requires grep -F. I suppose Solaris has an fgrep which does the same thing but that is not in Posix so it is (in theory) less portable. I guess Solaris users will just have to suffer until Oracle fix it. :)
