sending alerts to a nagios server from a non nagios client

Post by peterbill »

we have a large number of linux clients that the powers that be do not want to install nagios on but they still want to have alerts from these boxes for space filling up go to nagios core.

Is it even possible to have a script running on a linux box check for space issues and then if it goes over a threshold email nagios and open an alert?

thanks,
