Nagios xi - NCPA Disk Check Issue

Post by NVESMM »

Hello!

I am running into an issue with one of our disk checks when migrating to NCPA where it is showing a negative value for the amount of used disk space:
[nagios@nagiosxi ~]$ /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ncpa.py -H XXX.XXX.XXX.41 -t 'TOKEN' -P 5693 -M 'disk/logical/|u04|dbs' -w '90' -c '95'
CRITICAL: Used disk space was -198.70 % (Used: -3300.27 GiB, Free: 4960.87 GiB, Total: 1660.60 GiB) | 'used'=-3300.27GiB;1495;1578; 'free'=4960.87GiB;1495;1578; 'total'=1660.60GiB;1495;1578;

Old check:
[nagios@nagiosxi ~]$ /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -2 -H XXX.XXX.XXX.41 -c check_disk1 -t 30 -a 6% 3% "/u04/dbs"
DISK OK - free space: /u04/dbs 5081154 MiB (27.49% inode=100%);| /u04/dbs=13396925MiB;17369395;17923737;0;18478080

However, all the other disk checks in NCPA are not showing negative values.

Thank you.

Hello, did you manage to solve this issue? The same thing is happening to me with an AIX system on my Nagios xi 5.11.3 version.
