gotta admit, i didn't know about opsview until i saw this post ... looks pretty cool and seems like it adds some slightly more robust elements into nagios (like backend db). i'm curious to to hear people's opinions here ... is the backend DB really needed? one thing I REALLY like about Opsview

[Nagios-users] need help with my custom perl plugin

Hi Alexander and list folks,I set up two little shell scripts for disk i/o calculations for mrtg which i hope to use for nagios down the track. I'm still learning shell scripting /nagios / etc so i welcome corrections to my logic, coding, anything! :-) It's not really fancy, just uses vmstat to get
