Hi,
I have configured Nagios on SLES 10 SP2. I could configure nagios but 2 things are not working correctly.
1. It doesn’t show correct disk utilization for /local partition.
2. It doesn’t send Alerts.
I have installed NAGIOS (nagios-3.2.0-11.1, nagios-plugins-1.4.14-11.1 and few other which are required to remove dependency) on server and I have installed nagios (nagios-plugins-1.4.14-11.1, nagios-nrpe-client-2.12-11.1 and few other packages to remove dependency) on client.
Configuration files from NAGIOS server:
nagios.cfg (Since this file is big, I have copied the relevant portion only. Let me know if any specific info is required from this file)=>
log_file=/var/log/nagios/nagios.log

}
Any idea why alerts are not working and I don’t get correct results for /local disk utilization.
Thanks,
