check_logfiles 2.5.5.1 (Default branch)

check_logfiles is a plugin for Nagios which checks logfiles for defined patterns. It is capable of detecting logfile rotation. If you tell it how the rotated archives look, it will also examine these files. Unlike check_logfiles, traditional logfile plugins were not aware of the gap which could occur, so under some circumstances they ignored what had happened between their checks. A configuration file is used to specify where to search, what to search, and what to do if a matching line is found. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
Native support for the Windows EventLog was added (which requires the Win32-Perl-Module). Multiline-output was added. Pathnames can now contain blanks. Image

NAME
mailping-success - Munin plugin to graph time since last mail delivery SYNOPSIS
/usr/share/mailping/munin-plugins/mailping-success {[config] | ['']} DESCRIPTION
mailping-success is a Munin plugin that monitors time passed since last successful email probe. Configuration output When passed config, it outputs Munin configuration information. If there are no circuits defined (no subdirectories in /etc/mailping), it specifies that Munin should draw no graph either. If configuration files /etc/mailping/circuit/warntime and /etc/mailping/circuit/failtime exist, the values in them are passed on to Munin, for use in Nagios alert integration. Value output When passed an empty string '', mailping-success outputs the difference between current time and last successful probe, for each configured circuit. FILES
/etc/mailping/ List of circuits that exist; each subdirectory is a circuit. /etc/mailping/circuit/warntime If more than this many seconds have passed since last successful probe, a Nagios warning is triggered by Munin (assuming it has been configured to do that). Default: no warnings. /etc/mailping/circuit/failtime If more than this many seconds have passed since last successful probe, a Nagios alert is triggered by Munin (assuming it has been configured to do that). Default: no alerts. /var/lib/mailping/state/circuit/success Timestamp in seconds of the last successful probe for circuit. ENVIRONMENT
MAILPING_CONFIGDIR Override the location of the configuration directory. Default: /etc/mailping MAILPING_STATEDIR Override the location of the state directory. Circuit states are stored in the state subdirectory of this directory, in subdirectories named after the circuit name. Default: /var/lib/mailping SEE ALSO
