I use send_nsca and configure a passive check - the script returns OK of no error occurred or an error status if anything went wrong. This also has the advantage of reducing the load on your monitoring server. You can also use freshness checking to send an alert when no results come in after some time. - -- Thomas -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFJiC/z6dZ+Kt5BchYRAu8BAJ0X89B3P7kgAiN5IAfl43IAbXa9wQCeMJ+k FVJ7ZfYLEFyEhorO4PW80Ho= =ESlf -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Create and Deploy Rich Internet Apps outside the browser with Adobe(R)AIR(TM) software.
