How to get reboot messages

[Yost, Josh]

hi,
   One simple idea is to use the Uptime number from SNMP ("hrSystemUptime.0"), and if that ever says "0 days" then you get an alert.  I have a script that does a little more than this, but that's the basic idea.
 
you should be able to do this with check_snmp (or a quick perl script that uses snmpget and does regular expression matches).

Subject: [Nagios-users] How to get reboot messages


I have a bunch of devices which alert me fine up/down, but I'm looking to find how to get messages when they reboot. Solarwinds does this for me now, but I'm trying to move off this solution, but my boss want reboot messages as well as up/downs for the devices... 

Any ideas?
