The guts of it was one of the parameters you passed it was a valid command for that RDBMS (so it could be a select or a stored proc, the latter is what we did). It expects 1 row, 2 columns back. A result code (OK, WARN, etc), and a message. I havent bothered with perf stats at this point. Our DBAs wrote some standard stored procs they deployed as they saw fit to spit out the results. Thus, I could manage Nagios and they could write whatever queries on their DB they wanted without having to fiddle with scripts on the Nagios server. I've not put them on Nagios Exchange, but if you're interested in seeing them, let me know. Cheers. ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
