Any hints to this ? Or is a bash-script based monitor possible, too? How
would this work?

Mon's monitor programs can be any executable format you choose. We have some that are actually compiled C code. If you're most familiar with shell scripts, write a shell script. It should behave the way the documentation says a monitoring program should behave.

The relevant passages from the documentations are:
Monitor processes are invoked with the arguments specified in the configuration file, appended by the hosts from the applicable host group.

.... should return an exit status of 0 if it completed successfully (found no problems), or nonzero if a problem was detected. The first line of output from the monitor script has a special meaning: it is used as a brief summary of the exact failure which was detected, and is passed to the alert program. All remaining output is also passed to the alert program, but it has no required interpretation.
