Monitoring Nagios

[Petrucci, Joseph]

Sorry I was in a hurry I'll translate the mess I just sent.

If you do not have another machine that you want to install Nagios on as I do at a few of my clients. Setup an ssh connection between a UNIX machine and the Nagios server and run the following shell script on a cron schedule.

#!/bin/ksh
CNT=`/usr/local/ssh nagios.mydomain.com -l nagios "/usr/bin/ps 
-ef | /usr/bin/grep -c [n]agios"
if [ $CNT -lt 1 ]
then
   /usr/bin/echo Nagios process is down | /usr/bin/mail -S 
"ERROR NAGIOS" mypager at vtext.com
fi
