I just use a bash script (passive check) that does the following:
#Get the amount of RAM used
ram_used=`free | grep Mem | awk '{ print $3 }'`
#Get the total amount of RAM
total_ram=`free | grep Mem | awk '{ print $2 }'`
#Calculate the percent of RAM used
percent_ram_used=$((100 * ram_used / total_ram))
#Get the amount of swap used
swap_used=`free | grep Swap | awk '{ print $3 }'`

[Nagios-users] Plugin to check memory usage on linux boxes
Hi Is there a plugin bundled with nagios-plugins that helps us in checking the memory usage on the linux box. I basically want to know the used memory and the total available , Even if it is given in percentage i am fine. Please let me know if there are plugins to do so. I checked the plugins that come by default in the libexex folder but none are there for checking the memory usage.
