Okay, next plan.
BoxA runs Nag .. BoxB run NRPE and does a check_logs .. is there a way for
me to execute a shell script on BoxB if check_logs is triggered into
warning?
http://sysunconfig.net/unixtips/wgrep.txt is a damn fine tool which will
allow me to grab the lines I want as well as lines above and below those
found in the regex.
the way I have wgrep working, it returns 8 lines per match .. a divider, one
line above the regex, the regex line, and three lines after it ..
You mean like grep -B 1 -C 3 ? Sound's like a real novelty...
if the check_logs.pl triggers, it returns the number of matches found in the
logfile .. lets say it 4 matches ..
what I want to do, is to be able to use tail -l (8 * number of matches
found) so it only outputs the faults found ..
then, send an email from the script which sends this output
so what i need, is a method to trap the number of fails from check_logs.pl
... and pass this to a script that can wgrep and send the output to an email
address.
cron is your friend.
This would provide a simple and workable addon to check_logs,
Perhaps, but you'd also have to move much of the logic from Nagios into
the plugin which is a very stupid thing to do.
which I'm sure
can be used by many on the list :)
Possibly. Feel free to send whatever code you hack up and I'll have a
look at it.
