Executing Linux Actions

NetCrunch fails to execute some actions on my Linux servers; the error message is: action failed, command not found.

Applies to 15.x 14.x 13.x 12.x 11.x 10.x 9.x

Such errors may occur when the User used for Linux monitoring has insufficient access rights.

To fix this issue, make sure that:

  • User has access right to su or sudo (i.e., is included in sudoers file for sudo).
  • In NetCrunch, the user profile used for monitoring has the root password specified, and the proper profile to execute control actions is selected.
