How to use thresholds in Check.AddPerfDatum()
Hello,
according to Nagios Plugin Dev Guidelines:
warn and crit are in the range format (see the Section called Threshold and ranges). Must be the same UOM
However, Check.AddPerfDatum()
expects float64
. What's the correct way to add warn and crit threshold to perf data then? I've tried something like:
check.AddPerfDatum(label, unit, value, 0, 0,
warnRange.Start, warnRange.End, critRange.Start, critRange.End)
but the output doesn't seem to be correct, resp. it's something like:
CRITICAL: It's broken. | label=value;0;warn.End;0;0
where input values for warn and critical are -w 400000 -c 500000
. I've also tried to pass different combinations to Check.AddPerfDatum()
, but without success. However, it's possible I'm expecting something that cannot be :)
Thank you for clarification.

Huh, I missed that, I always thought they were scalars - thanks for pointing that out. This is an example of how I've been using that function. I think current behaviour is a bug though; I'll leave this open until I get a chance to look at fixing it.
