Re: [Netsaintplug-help] Writing a new plugin

[Subhendu G. <sg...@sg...>]

Everything looks good except for the exit state for the check_notes=20
plugin.


When the check_notes plugin terminates with a Critical, what is the exit=20
code being used?  If you are using just "exit"  that implies "exit 0"=20
which is OK.  You need to exit with "exit 2" for a critical status.
