Hello, 

we are using nagios for system monitoring in our company. As we also use
OTRS, I thought it would be a nice thing to make the tools work
together. Two perl-scripts and a bit of configuration was all that was
needed.

The integration works as follows:
When NAGIOS notices a host or service problem it starts a perl-script
that sends an Email to OTRS. A Tickets is created by OTRS after
recieving the message.
When the problem still exists after some time, NAGIOS calls the script
again. This time the script does not send an email to OTRS, but calls a
modified copy of GenericAgent (over SSH) to add a note to the existing
Ticket. When the problem has vanished NAGIOS calls the script again,
which then closes the ticket the same way.

I tried to make the scripts as independent of the OTRS-version as
possible, but as I use a modified copy of the GenericAgent.pl there is
problably the need to do some minor adjustments to this perl-script when
using a different version of OTRS than 1.2.2.

Is there a way to create dynamic jobs (created from commandline
parameters) for GenericAgent? Then i could make it completely
independend from the OTRS Version.

Is anyone interested in the scripts (incl. installation-howto)?

Is there a place on the otrs-page where people can make there code
available to others? I saw that the wiki was closed...
