I've already all environment working. I've used the check_nt to monitor process, like this:

define service
 use generic-service
 host_name netserver
 contact_groups admins, analysts
 service_description DBAccess
 check_command check_nt!PROCSTATE!-d SHOWALL -l dbaccess.exe
 

This work. But now i need to monitor varios process that are the same .exe but have different parameters.

Like this:

appserver.exe -pf instance1.ini
appserver.exe -pf instance2.ini
appserver.exe -pf test.ini

How can i make it work? I can't figure how to use it with check_nt

Thanks

In your question, you haven't pointed out what do you want to monitor, I assume you want to check the process status. If the process is not running, NSClient++ will send notification to Nagios via NRPE.

Let's assume you are using NSClient++ for your windows monitoring with Nagios.


First, you need to define appropriate alias under nsclient.ini in your windows machine (by default: C:program filesNSClient++nsclient.ini)

alias_check_appserver = check_process "process=appserver.exe -pf $ARG1$" "crit=state != 'started'"

Then you can define the service by simply changing the following line accordingly under your Nagios server:

For instance1:

define service
 use generic-service
 host_name netserver
 contact_groups admins, analysts
 service_description DBAccess
 check_command check_nrpe!alias_check_appserver -a "instance1.ini"

It should do the tricks.

  Thanks for your reply. My nsclient.ini uses checkProcState like it: alias_process = checkProcState "$ARG1$=started" Is the same?

  I would suggest you to use check_process as the checkProcState is a legacy version of check_process, you can have more detail: NSClient Reference
