a little help please...

[Eric Beale-EXT]

Hello-

I've inherited the responsibility for some Nagios checks and there's no documentation on what was set up, so I'm a little in the dark about the Check Commands I'm looking at.

For example, I've included a couple of "Check Commands" and their "Expanded Command".

Example 1:
Check Command

check_http!-H soamonitorprd.jeppesen.com -u "/PingBPEL/RunServiceTest?env=11GPROD&action=subscriptionSummary&custNum=1191078&output=xml" --timeout=30

Expanded Command

/omd/sites/prod1/lib/nagios/plugins/check_http  -H soamonitorprd.jeppesen.com -u "/PingBPEL/RunServiceTest?env=11GPROD&action=subscriptionSummary&custNum=1191078&output=xml" --timeout=30


Example 2:
Check Command

check_http!-H soaebsprd.jeppesen.com -p 80 -u "/soa-infra/services/Jeppdirect/CreateCustomerPartyJDirectReqABCSImplV1/createcustomerpartyjdirectreqabcsimplv1_client_ep" -s endpoint --timeout=30

Expanded Command

/omd/sites/prod1/lib/nagios/plugins/check_http  -H soaebsprd.jeppesen.com -p 80 -u "/soa-infra/services/Jeppdirect/CreateCustomerPartyJDirectReqABCSImplV1/createcustomerpartyjdirectreqabcsimplv1_client_ep" -s endpoint --timeout=30



I get that, from Example 1, that "soamonitorprd.jeppesen.com" is the hostname and what follows is the URL path for the check, however, I don't have a host named "soamonitorprd.jeppesen.com" in my domain, so, in the Expanded Command, I'm unable to determine where the path actually resides.

What am I missing/not understanding?

Thanks in advance and I'm happy to answer any follow-on questions!

Eric
