An simple solution to monitor disk space, swap and memory

Hello,

I would like to propose a plugin I developped that simplify the task of 
setting up monitoring disks, memory and swap with Nagios. The plugin is 
part of Virtual server monitor, or, in short, vsmon, which was built 
specifically for the Linux-VServers technology but was extented to 
support hosts not using it.

The plugin has some advantages over the competition :

    * You only have to install one program on the hosts to be able to
      monitor ALL mount points, memory and swap;

    * The warning and critical thresolds are intelligently determine
      using an invert logarithmic formula. No need to configure the
      thresolds : the bigger the disk partition / total memory
      available, the smaller the thresold in percent will be.

      vsmon's web site has a table of sample values of disk capacity and
      their corresponding thresolds:

Comments are welcomed :-)

Thanks,
