Re: [Perfparse-users] Problems processing serviceperf.log

[Ben C. <Be...@cl...>]

Darren,

Just to make sure:  You have compiled Nagios to use the performance=20
method of 'file'?

Eg, something like:

./configure --with-file-perfdata

In my nagios.cfg I now have the following entries:

#service_perfdata_command=3Dprocess-service-perfdata
xpdfile_service_perfdata_file=3D/usr/local/nagios/var/serviceperf.log
xpdfile_service_perfdata_template=3D$TIMET$\t$HOSTNAME$\t$SERVICEDESC$\t$=
OUTPUT$\t$PERFDATA$

Please ensure similar entries are similar.  Especially the last line=20
which must be identical.

You should now have a file with performance data waiting for PerfParse :)
