I am using the usual http plugin of Nagios to check if the web
server is running. For testing the OpenCA daemon, I am using
the following Shell function with embedded Perl code that
generates output to be fed into a Nagios cmd file. Set
the OPENCA_DAEMON_SOCKET shell variable accordingly.
I am using the same code to forward error messages to a Tivoli
console, so it should be generic enough to serve any NMS.
checkopencadaemon() {
perl <<EOF
use Socket;
my \$socket_name = "$OPENCA_DAEMON_SOCKET";
if (! socket(SOCKET, PF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0)) {
print "ERROR: cannot create socket \$socket_name\n";
exit 1;
}
if (! connect(SOCKET, sockaddr_un(\$socket_name))) {
print "ERROR: OpenCA server daemon is not online or does not
accept requests (\$socket_name)\n";
}
EOF
}
(In addition I have implemented some checks that retrieve CRLs from
LDAP and generate Nagios warnings/errors if LDAP expiry will happen
soon.)
cheers
Martin
