It's probably worth mentioning here though. The ultra short version is that the Family & Church History department would love to see a small extension to nagios created, but doesn't have the resources to throw at it right now. If you're interested in hacking on Nagios, drop me a line, or respond to the blog post -- I'll put up more detail there if people are interested.

From what I can gather online, JIRA offers an XML-RPC service that allows
you to drive it externally. See

http://confluence.atlassian.com/pages/viewpage.action;jsessionid=EEEJAHBFNBMK?pageId=120980

If I understand right, you'd like to be able (for example) to have someone viewing an outage page be able to click a link which would automatically open a JIRA "issue" about the outage. Is that what you're looking for?

(Unfortunately) Nagios' cgi interface is written in C, so it might be just a matter of hacking the Nagios C source for its cgi interface to generate links on outage pages to a (Perl?) script running on the Nagios machine which would generate the XML-RPC request to openthe JIRA issue.

Perhaps Nagios is more easily extended than that (I would _really_ hope so), in which case this might be even easier. Browsing through freshmeat, it looks like there are severala front-end options for Nagios. Are you using the web interface provided by Nagios itself?

I'm interested (in case you couldn't tell),
