HI

I am using the plugin check_cpu. But this plugin is showing result as below

https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui...cb11&zw&atsh=1

If you click the above link it will show status information Missing host or passwords arguments


Pls Let us know what to do

I'm sorry but you should either post your text here or in a pastebin and not Gmail.
So:
- do read the general Nagios documentation and the one for check_cpu,
- adjust your configuration as required,
- and to to test supply all required arguments, run the check from the command line and post the results.

*Do obfuscate credentials (if any) and public IP addresses though.

Not everyone that can help you has a gmail account to view that image.
Maybe try uploading it to http://susepaste.org/ ?
