NRPE check from OMD site to remote host

[sgala (Matteo Sgalaberni)]

Hi, I want to configure an active checks that is executed via a NRPE local check on the monitoring site but referred to a remote host.

example:
I would like to perform a check_radius.pl (a nagios plugin) from the monitoring host to the remote host $REMOTE_HOST and see the service on the $REMOTE_HOST.

I can add this check on /etc/check_mk/mrpe.cfg of the monitoring host, it work correctly but the service belong to the wrong host in the check_mk interface.

Am I on the wrong way?

Thanks

Matteo

Create an active check for that with the ruleset “Integrate Nagios plugins”.
