[Nagiosplug-devel] check_snmp Changed Behavior

[Jochen Bern]

[Repost after erroneously sending the question to nagios-devel last week]

Quick question: I'm comparing versions 1.4.14 and 1.4.15 of check_snmp
and found two differences that I suspect not to be intentional. Does
someone happen to know for sure?

1. Timeticks don't appear in the perfdata anymore:

# nagios-plugins-1.4.14/plugins/check_snmp $TARGET \
> -o .1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.2.3.0 -c 30000: -w 60000:
SNMP OK - 216000 | iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.2.3.0=216000
# nagios-plugins-1.4.15/plugins/check_snmp $TARGET \
> -o .1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.2.3.0 -c 30000: -w 60000:
SNMP OK - Timeticks: (216000) 0:36:00.00 |

(This is the remaining battery runtime straight off an APC UPS, hence
I'd rather have it recorded in the RRDs for post-incident analysis.)

2. Explicit label ist placed differently in the output, and used as DS
name in the perfdata (which, in my example, results in syntactically
incorrect perfdata):

# nagios-plugins-1.4.14/plugins/check_snmp $TARGET \
> -o .1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.3.2.5.0 -l 'My label'
My label OK - 9 | iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.3.2.5.0=9
# nagios-plugins-1.4.15/plugins/check_snmp $TARGET \
> -o .1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.3.2.5.0 -l 'My label'
SNMP OK - My label 9 | My label=9

Kind regards,
