check_cisco_vss.pl

A few fixes... language to English, corrected OID and regex (as mentioned in other reviews). Changed the "primary isn't active, its standby" from a critical to a warning, since in my book, if its functioning, that's not enough to wake me up at night. I may disable that alltogether in what I put into production, since I don't really care which is primary (I have other stuff to catch events that cause switchovers).

Hi,

It doesnt work completely. (dont mind the translation)

I get:

VSS: OK VSL: not active Primary Chassis Active: Ok Secondary Chassis standby: OK VSL 209: OK VSL 210: OK

When i go to my VSS and check:

sh switch virtual link
VSL Status : UP
VSL Uptime : 2 years, 33 weeks, 3 days, 23 hours, 33 minutes
VSL SCP Ping : Pass
VSL ICC Ping : Pass
VSL Control Link : Te1/5/5

What is going wrong here?

pad99 was right, the regex in line 163 is wrong, also. Line 163 should look like this:
elsif ( /388.1.2.2.1.2.(S+)s+=s+S+:s+1/ )

Anyway, nice script, thanks to the author.

The lines 163 to 178 are unused in the program, the programm will never pass there. The regex may be wrong

I implemented this script with the OID change recommended in the first review and it appears to be working. I also translated the output form French to English. Thanks, very useful.

Thanks for this check.
Just one annotation:

In line 93 this check is using OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.388.1.1.6 to check the VSL status. According to cisco documents, this OID is cvsVSLChangeNotifEnable.
Wouldn't 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.388.1.3.1.1.3 (cvsVSLConnectOperStatus) be correct?
