i have sucessfully built the check on ubuntu 14.04 with varnish 4 from their repo.

# ./check_varnish -p ratio -w 80: -c 60:
VARNISH CRITICAL: Cache hit ratio (51)|ratio=51
# ./check_varnish -p usage
Unknown parameter 'usage'
# ./check_varnish -p uptime
Unknown parameter 'uptime'

Hi david,

check_varnish relies on the internal varnish counters (that are also used by varnishstat) to get its numbers. In Varnish 4 there is no usage counter anymore. Your best bet is to do varnishstat -l and find the counter you would like to monitor. You might want to monitor the Bytes available counter, but its name depends on your storage pool name, on my setup this works: check_varnish -p SMA.s0.g_space

From what I see, there's no "usage" counter in Varnish 3(.0.2) either? (uptime works fine though)
