Nagios Heartbeat Client/Server/Plugin

Post by yahootoby »

I have Nagios on my LAN, and have just configured another server in the cloud because I wouldn't otherwise know if my entire network/core switch goes down. I would like to set something up on an internal server (could be the Nagios server, or it could be something else) that will send a heartbeat to my cloud Nagios server. Then, if the cloud server doesn't receive a heartbeat Nagios will alert me. When I search for any combination of "heartbeat", "linux", "nagios", etc, the only results I get are for HA-Linux, and clones such as Pacemaker. I don't want a cluster. I just want a heartbeat.

I think passive checks combined with freshness is what you are after.
