Folder watch Wizard

Post by ITOMB_IMT »

Hi,

i am looking for a Plugin or wizard to monitor specific files on a server (*xml), our application generates multiple xml files to multiple locations. I need Nagios to do find on xml files on the whole server and if the number is above threshold i need to be alerted.

Thanks,
benjaminsmith

Hello @ISSB_MAOST,

I did some research on the Nagios Exchange, and there's a simple pluigin called check_files_count. For arguments, you can set the path and file type.
