check_pdh and type=double not working

[codespartan128]

Just tried to check some Windows counters that return float values. To ensure check_pdh could handle the value I set the flag type=double. Here an extract of the check I setup.

alias_checklogicaldisk_averagelatency_disk1=check_pdh "counter=\LogicalDisk(*)\Avg. Disk sec/Transfer" type=double

Running this manually ( nscp test )

alias_checklogicaldisk_averagelatency_disk1
L        cli OK: OK: \LogicalDisk(*)\Avg. Disk sec/Transfer = 0
L        cli  Performance data: '\LogicalDisk(*)\Avg. Disk sec/Transfer_value'=0;0;0

Running the following Powershell whilst running CrystalDiskMark

( Get-Counter -Counter "\LogicalDisk(*)\Avg. Disk sec/Transfer" ).CounterSamples | select instancename, cookedvalue

which returns

c:   0.00180013181927105
f:    0.049985006338838

So the original check_pdh check should have returned some decimals in the performance data and it didn't.

By the way I am using NSClient++ 0.4.4.15 but I have also tried this on version 0.5.0.32.

Thanks Mickem!

Nightly build is out: https://github.com/mickem/nscp/releases/tag/0.5.0.33

Just tested the 0.5.0.34 nightly build. Nearly there :)

The nagios message now contains a double. However, the performance data is still issuing rounded ints as can be seen at the end of the last line:

alias_checklogicaldisk_averagelatency_disk1 0.01 0.02
L        cli OK: \LogicalDisk(C:)\Avg. Disk sec/Transfer = 0.000120369
L        cli  Performance data: '\LogicalDisk(C:)\Avg. Disk sec/Transfer_value'=0;0;0

Will fix this in next build...
