I am trying to stay away from SNMP, some people believe that SNMP is the
work of the devil and creates another security hackable avenue.
Are there any other options out there?
Thanks,
Tom

Doing that all the time ... and a bunch of other parameters, too (fan
speed, RAID drive status, redundant PSU status, temp of UPS, line
voltage, mail queue length, ...)
I wrote snmpvar.monitor which queries any variable accessible via SNMP.
See
http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/software/admin/mon/contrib/monitors/snmpvar/ .
I have also used the ucd-snmp extension exec feature to make some of
these parameters available via SNMP in the first place on Linux
machines. It's fairly trivial to stick (lm_)sensors into this (first
make sure the sensors stuff works and gives correct readings!).
E-mail and paging are of course standard mon alert actions.
Repetition is also standard unless you use alertevery.
watch environment
service snmpval
interval 15m
monitor snmpval.monitor
alert mail.alert [EMAIL PROTECTED]
alert qpage.alert oper_pager
This will check all configured variables against high & low limits and
complain every 15min by pager and E-mail until the values are back in
range.
