Not a Legato user but...

http://www.nagiosexchange.org/cgi-bin/search.cgi? 
d=1&query=legato&Go=Go shows several related checks. The first seems  
most interesting and leads to

http://www.net17.de/projekte/nagios/

check_nw appears to be able to check log status (among other items) --

 print "! LOGSTATUS - Check Networker Log for failed  
Clients  !\n";
 print "! check_nw -t LOGSTATUS [-l path/to/logfile] [-m Minutes  
ago] !\n";
 print "!   [-p  
savegroupname1,savegroupname2,savegroupname3,]

[Nagios-users] monitor status of legato backups

2008-06-27 Thread dave stern - e-mail.pluribus.unum
We're looking for some method to have nagios check the status of our
many backups
run off a backup server. Currently, we have a perl script search for
just one or two specific
lines and pass the results to send_nsca. It's crude and doesn't cover
all instances.

The problem is the nsr logfile has so much info in it, it seems to
REQUIRE human
perusal to determine status of all backups. Has anyone spent any time on a
plugin/script for this before I code what might already exist?

Thanks
