Nagios 3.0.6 (Default branch)
Image Nagios (formerly Netsaint) is a daemon written in C that is designed to monitor networked hosts and services. It has the ability to notify contacts (via email, pager or other methods) when problems arise and are resolved. Host and service checks are performed by external "plugins", making it easy to write custom checks in your language of choice. Several CGIs are included in order to allow you to view the current and historical status via a Web browser, and a WAP interface is also provided to allow you to acknowlege problems and disable notifications from an internet-ready cellphone. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
Security fixes related to CGI submission of external commands and processing of adaptive data commands. x509 certificate authentication support and wildcard host matching in CGIs were added. Minor improvements were made to the RPM spec file, out-of-disk-space error handling, and system command timeout handling. Image

check_backuppc

check_backuppc(8)					      System Manager's Manual						 check_backuppc(8)

NAME

       check_backuppc - A Nagios plugin to monitor BackupPC

SYNOPSIS

       check_backuppc [options]

DESCRIPTION

       check_backuppc  is  a  nagios  plugin  that  reports  on the status of BackupPC.  By default, it monitors both archive and backup hosts for
       errors.

OPTIONS

       -a, --archive-only
	      Only check the status of archive hosts.

       -b, --backup-only
	      Only check the status of non-archive hosts.

       -s, --status-only
	      Only check the status of the backups, omit connection failures that are less than $Conf{FullPeriod} old.

       -H, --hostname hostname
	      Only check the specified host.  Uses hostnames that BackupPC is configured to use, can be specified multiple times.

       -x, --exclude hostname
	      Do not check the specified host.	Uses hostnames that BackupPC is configured to use, can be specified multiple times.

       -w, --warning age
	      The days old at which a failure is considered a warning, default 1.

       -c, --critical age
	      The days old at which a failure is considered critical, default 8.

       -r, --reduce count
	      The maximum number of failed hosts for which to reduce reported severity, default 0.

       -h, --help
	      Show summary of options.

NOTES

       This plugin must be run on the same host and as the same user as BackupPC.  An archive host only takes on a reported type of archive  after
       its first archive run.

EXAMPLES

       /usr/local/lib/nagios/plugins/check_backuppc -r1 -w3 -c8 -b -x otter
	      Check  the  status  of  all backup hosts except "otter".	Warn if a failed backup is older than three days old, return critical if a
	      failure is older than eight days old unless there is only a single failure.  In that case, warn if the single failed backup is older
	      than eight days.
