I want to check MegaRAID status with a smiple python script:

#!/usr/bin/python3

import os,sys

CMD = "/usr/local/MegaRAID\ Storage\ Manager/StorCLI/storcli64 -AdpAllInfo -aALL | grep -A 8 'Device Present' | grep 0 | wc -l"
PRESENT = int(os.popen(CMD).read())

if PRESENT < 4:
	print('RAID is CRITICAL')
	sys.exit(1)
else:
	print('All are OK')
	sys.exit(0)

The result is OK in local shell:

# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_MegaRAID.py
All are OK

But after configure in icinga2, the result is ‘RAID is CRITICAL’

object CheckCommand "MegaRAID" {
  import "ipv4-or-ipv6"

  command = [
    PluginDir + "/check_MegaRAID.py",
  ]
}

apply Service "MegaRAID" {
  display_name = "MegaRAID"
  check_command = "MegaRAID"
  command_endpoint = host.vars.client_endpoint
  vars.grafana_graph_disable = 1
  ...... 
}

Hi & welcome,

How did you test your script in bash? With root permissions or the icinga/nagios user? My guess if icinga triggers yours script it has not much permissions.
If you configured something like SELinux or AppAmor check these logs, if the system blocks the access

It is OK in bash:

# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_MegaRAID.py
All are OK

So, judging by your command prompt # this command is being run as root.

Please repeat as the user icinga to ensure permissions are sufficient to get the
same result.

Antony.
