I always drop down and run the check manually from the Observium box to see if your arguments are an issue or not, for example
xxxx@Observium:~# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ping -H localhost <wrta> was not set check_ping: Could not parse arguments Usage: check_ping -H <host_address> -w <wrta>,<wpl>% -c <crta>,<cpl>% [-p packets] [-t timeout] [-4|-6]

Hi, i have created a bunch of ping probes in the past and never had an issue, however, on this particular install...I created a single ping probe and it has not run after days. How do I troubleshoot this issue?
Thanks [cid:image001.jpg@01DA695A.DA8826E0] [cid:image002.jpg@01DA695A.DA8826E0]
