Hi,
Here's something that I'm sure someone else has solved..
I'd like to monitor the number of files in /var/spool/mqueue and do 3
things when it hits a threshold:
- Fire off a warning
- run sendmail -q
- Run a shell command to nuke some things (like SPAM!)
So, here's what I have now, which seems fairly inelegant:
----BEGIN SNIP
classes:
# See if we're overlimt
MailqueOverLimit = ( ReturnsZero(/bin/sh -c "expr `ls /var/spool/mqueue/ | grep
q.*| wc -l` \> 12 > /dev/null") )
alerts:
# Tell us if we're overlimit (it'd be nice to have the actual
# number...)
MailqueOverLimit::
"WARNING: Mail queue is overlimit on $(fqhost)" ifelapsed=60
shellcommands:
# Do something to make us not overlimit
MailqueOverLimit::
"$(nuke_spam_bounces)"
"$(run_a_qrunner)"
----END SNIP
This seems kinda like a kludge. Anyone have any better suggestions for
monitoring the number of files in a directory?
Thanks!
