For check_swap, I have a perl script plugin (using ePN) that queries memTotalSwap and memAvailSwap SNMP variables. No need to install a seperate script on the client.
I have also added: use SNMP 5.0; SNMP::loadModules("ALL"); To the top of p1.pl to load the mibs once at Nagios startup. Converting all my SNMP plugins to perl along with the two lines above, brought my Nagios server from a load peaking above 3 to a load peaking just above .3. I use SNMP almost exclusively. Checks against other network services (HTTP, SSH, SMTP...) use their respective plugins. I try to touch the clients as little as possible. For Solaris (the majority of my *nix hosts) I use NET-SNMP from sunfreeware.com. So, I install two packages, a startup script and a default config file (locked down to only a ro community.) <quote who="Joerg Linge"> > Am Montag, 17.
