The thread I reference above talks about using “check_cluster”, although the documentation on that is a little sparse, and it specifically references Nagios 2, so it may not have been updated in quite some time. Is there any better way to achieve this behavior, or is the solution from two years ago still the way to go? -Gius </div> </div> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
