[Nagiosplug-help] IBM Bladecenter monitoring problems

[Kyle Smith]

In your command definition there are no -w and -c values. This might  
make a difference, try running your command line test as nagios user  
without them and see what you get.

I have no experience with that plugin itself.

HTH and happy friday ;-)
