I am collecting perfdata, As the admin/engineer, I'm quite happy with the http interface for checking the status of systems and knowing what needs to get fixed/looked at. I installed/configured nagios originally for my benefit anyways, as part of a data center "lights out" effort. The problem: Management saw the website (I blame myself, screensaver is my new best friend). We all know what happens when suits get involved... yes, they want a daily report. Apparently clicking on a link, and logging into a website is too much work. My first solution: Heh, I'd snap a screen print of a custom report, and mail it. Life was good, until I went on vacation. My second solution: Google, google, google. I'm surprised that I still cannot snap a txt formatted host up/down for 'report period' (in my case 7am-5pm defined in the cfg's) without using cacti, rrdtool, or any other add-ons. My third solution: I'm giving in to rrdtool (I think). It seems like a lot more work than I want to invest, but I can perl/shell script it and crontab it, so the suits get thier daily eye candy, and I can go back on vacation. My questions: - Is there a better way I haven't thought of, or found? - Is there an EASIER way I haven't thought of, or found? - HALP! - Any off the cuff suggestions? Aside from screensavers.
