I monitor uptime via snmp and throw a quick WARNING in the GUI if I see it. You'll likely want to adjust the warning and add critical thresholds if you want alerts -- define command { command_name check_uptime command_line $USER1$/check_snmp -H $HOSTADDRESS $ -C <community> -o 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0 -l "Uptime" -u "Timeticks" -w 50000:0 } -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net 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
