New Nagios BASH plugin output error: "Such Instance currently exists at this OID: integer expression expected"


I'm trying to write my first Nagios plugin to check the statuses on WLAN Controllers APs. The goal was to make a kind of "universal" plugin but I'm getting an error:

.1.3.6.1.4.1.14179.2.2.1.1.3.0.: Unknown Object Identifier ()

/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_wlc_ap_state.sh: line 50: [: Such Instance currently exists at this OID: integer expression expected

/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_wlc_ap_state.sh: line 56: [: Such Instance currently exists at this OID: integer expression expected
UNKOWN-  = Such Instance currently exists at this OID

Here's my code:

#!/bin/bash

while getopts "H:C:O:N:I:w:c:h" option; do
        case "$option" in
                H )     host_address=$OPTARG;;
                C )     host_community=$OPTARG;;
                O )     ap_op_status_oid=$OPTARG;;
                N )     ap_hostname_oid=$OPTARG;;
                w )     warn_thresh=$OPTARG;;
                c )     crit_thresh=$OPTARG;;
                h )     show_help="yes";;

        esac

And here's the input and desired output. I'm not sure about if the output is right for Nagios/Icinga2 though.

Solution

  • ap_stat contains non-numeric contents. Your code is passing it to a test operator that requires it to parse as numeric.

    Use set -x to trace your script's execution; this will make this kind of situation easier to diagnose.
