You set the variable EXITCODE to the standard output of the SNMPWALK
command. I have no idea what you want to do with the output but to check
the exit status you want something like this:
$SNMPWALK -v 1 -c $COMMUNITY $HOST $STATUS
EXITCODE=$?
Also, do not use backquotes when you can use $( cmd ) instead.
output=$($SNMPWALK -v 1 -c $COMMUNITY $HOST $STATUS)
i am trying to get a plugin to work that uses snmp to execute checks on
remote hosts over snmp and return that value to nagios. I was using this
as an assistance
http://www.kilala.nl/Sysadmin/retrieve_custom_snmp.php
i am no developer thats for sure but i will try to muddle through.
any more help appreciated
thanks
