Check instance of performance counters

I'm just trying to monitor single instances of a performace counter which offers me values for different disks. The problems is, that it works for the instance '_total', but not for single disk, like C:.

This one works fine: root@server:/usr/lib/nagios/plugins# ./check_nrpe -H serverwithmanydisks -c CheckCounter -a "Counter:AvgDiskReadQueueLength=\\234(_total)\\1402" index ShowAll MaxCrit=2 OK: AvgDiskReadQueueLength?: 0|'AvgDiskReadQueueLength?'=0;0;2

This one doesn't work: root@server:/usr/lib/nagios/plugins# ./check_nrpe -H serverwithmanydisks -c CheckCounter -a "Counter:AvgDiskReadQueueLength=\\234(0 C:)
1402" index ShowAll MaxCrit=2 CRIT: Counter not found: \Physikalischer Datentr�ger( C:)\Durchschnittl. Warteschlangenl�nge der Datentr�ger-Lesevorg�nge: Die angegebene Instanz ist nicht vorhanden. (800007D1)

On an english system it looks like this: root@server:/usr/lib/nagios/plugins# ./check_nrpe -H otherserver -c CheckCounter -a "Counter:AvgDiskReadQueueLength=\\234(C:)\\1402" index ShowAll MaxCrit=2 CRIT: Counter not found: \PhysicalDisk?(C:)\Avg. Disk Read Queue Length: The specified instance is not present. (800007D1)

I tried to mask the different values of the disks (I have '0 C:', '1 X:', 2 S:' and so on) in several ways (\,',",...) - but no change. I'm using 0.3.9 64-bit.

Has anyone else experienced this behaviour and has a solution for this?

Thanks for any hint!

    Are the indexes 234 and 1402 correct?

      Double checked. :-) Yes.

        Humm..

        I noticed on my Windows 7 box the same counter instance is actually called "0 C:" which index parsing failed on. I have fixed this issue in the next nightly build.

        Which means on my machine with the new version the following worked: 

        CheckCounter "Counter:AvgDiskReadQueueLength=\\234(0 C:)\\1402" index ShowAll MaxCrit=2
d rvice\NSClient++.cpp:947  Result checkcounter: OK
l ce\simple_client.hpp:80   OK:OK: AvgDiskReadQueueLength: 0.000699261
l ce\simple_client.hpp:82    Performance data: 'AvgDiskReadQueueLength'=0.00069926074154403966;0;2

        Hello,

        I Have an similar bug with Centreon, it worked well. but now it gives that comment :

        CRIT: Counter not found: \Network Interface(Broadcom NetLink? [TM] Gigabit Ethernet - Teefer2 Miniport)\Bytes Total/sec: The specified instance is not present. (800007D1)

        CRIT: Counter not found: \Network Interface(MS TCP Loopback interface)\Bytes Total/sec: The specified instance is not present. (800007D1)

        Thank you for your answer.
