Any help on this issue would be wonderful.
I'm using check_mysql_query to check that db updates aren't stale: check_mysql_query -H naghost -d <nagios_db> -u <readonlyuser> -p <somepass> \ -q "SELECT NOW() - status_update_time FROM nagios_programstatus" -w 120 -c 300 If ndo2db is dead/failed to start, or there are other issues (corrupt tables), I believe this will catch it. You could also do something like watch the nagios.log for the dreaded "unable to connect to data sink" message, or check that the ndo2db process is running, though I'm finding that checking the db for freshness is a good indicator. -tt -- Tom Throckmorton OIT - CSI Duke University ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
