Hi,

I've found your blogpost on the Internet. http://leshcatlabs.net/2014/04/15/powerlogic-egx300-monitoring-with-nagios/ I want to ask what kind of issiues did you have with check_modbus and nagios? If the check_modbus's output is wrong according to Nagios standards, that it's a bug and I'd like to fix that.

Hi there,

I've actually didn't have any problems with output.

Everything worked as expected. I've just made my own bash wrapper to suit my needs.

That's pretty much it :)

Thank you for making this great application, w/o it i would not be able to resolve the task i was given.

ok. If I understand correctly, your wrapper is needed to check whether voltage is inside of range [lower_limit, upper_limit] and check_modbus did not support that check. Right? If so, the latest check_modbus has full support of nagios ranges and this task could be solved without any wrapper.

The main point of the wrapper is to create always critical state whenever it over-reaches lower or upper limit. If modbus can (or could before, i am not sure) work like that out-of-box - that's great news and wrapper is indeed no longer required. :)

Yes, your case was not supported before, but it is now. Thanks for the blogpost and don't hesitate to contact me, if you have any issues with check_modbus. :)

Thats great news!

I will reflect that at my post.

Take care,
