I wrote plugin for Nagios the other day. This script is just to show the current temperature values of the 3 build in ambient temp sensor in the chassis of a Dell e1000. A problem was to create the degree symbol ‘°‘. I ‘Googled’ a while and found a lot of solutions, but none of them worked for me. I don’t know if it was because of the SSH terminal or the keyboard driver. I saw loads of different symbols but none of them looked even close to what I was looking for. Finally I found a way to create that symbol.
[root@NAGIOS ~]# DEGCEL="\0260C"; echo -e $DEGCEL

Sequels are very rarely a good idea, and in any case, the success of the book changed my relationship with the club in some ways.

Hi,
I just stumbled over this here. How can one use a degree-sign inside of a “check_command”, for example for the “units” option?
I tried something like:
check_command check_snmp!-C public -o upsAdvBatteryTemperature.0 -w 30 -c 40 -u ‘260C’
but that doesn’t work… Any ideas?
TIA!
