Personally, I would use a tool like Cricket or Cacti for this, rather than Nagios. I think the combination of one of these tools, _AND_ Nagios makes for an excellent system monitoring environment. I use Nagios for instant status checks, and some history of up./down hosts/services, and use Cricket, or Cacti for the long term trending of things like system load, memory usage, disk usage etc. -- One of the main causes of the fall of the roman empire was that, lacking zero, they had no way to indicate successful termination of their C programs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
