Yes. It ends up being more of a Nagios question, but if you implement something like Ping() as in the fb303 API on your server side, and implement a Nagios plugin [1] [2] that is a Thrift client you would have your solution. If you have more complicated uptime requirements than just "Pingable" they can be implemented likewise. Michael
