Check_command with ARGS is giving command_status as 0

[abhigupta1207]

I am trying to create a job in prometheus for the below check command in nrpe.cfg.

command[check_test]=/usr/local/bin/check_test.py -i $ARG1$

I am not able to get command_status as 1 for this command. I tried multiple check_commands with $ARG1$ and it seems like NRPE exporter is not able to run the check_commands with dynamic ARGS.

HELP command_duration Length of time the NRPE command took
TYPE command_duration gauge
command_duration 0.052347708
HELP command_ok Indicates whether or not the command was a success
TYPE command_ok gauge
command_ok 0
HELP command_status Indicates the status of the command
TYPE command_status gauge
command_status 3

I have the same issue, it would really help to see a command example with $ARG in the documentation.

It's not supported

I am having the same issue. Any idea when they will fix that?
or anyone knows how we can pass arg with nrpe_exporter.

I would love to see this as well, although for my use case I don't actually need NRPE since the nrpe was running on the same machine as the exporter, my new plan is to use https://github.com/UiP9AV6Y/prometheus-nagios-plugin-exporter
