The idea is that it would work similar to check_mysql_query, in that it checks the numeric value return by a query against warning and critical threshold values. But instead of querying mysql, it would just cat the contents of a text file. I.e., read the first line and first column of a text file, parse it as a number, and then compare it against the threshold values. It obviously wouldn't be too hard to write a plugin like this, but I figured I'd try to see if one existed in order to not re-invent the wheel. A search through Nagios Exchange didn't turn anything up. But I thought someone on the list might know of one, or have already written one themselves. Thanks, DR </blockquote><div> Hi, I wrote something similar to this a while back, it looks at data pairs in a text file eg <DataName>:<DataValue>. It should not be to hard to make it work with csv, you will have to ignore the shoddy coding though! <a href="http://23.me.uk/scripts/check_jmxview.pl.text">http://23.me.uk/scripts/check_jmxview.pl.text</a> <a href="http://23.me.uk/scripts/">http://23.me.uk/scripts/</a>check_jmxview.server.cfg.text I might even be able to find the Nagios related config for this if needs be.
