Hi Folks,



I am new to Nagios EPN development, so please be gentle - and let me know if
this is the right list to send these types of questions to.



I am trying to do something that I thought would be simple but is starting
to drive me crazy.

I want to create a plug-in that will retain data in memory across multiple
executions.

As an initial test, I created a counter plug-in:



#!/usr/bin/perl

use utils qw(%ERRORS);

use strict;

use vars qw($counter)

$counter++;

print "The counter is $counter";

exit $ERRORS{'OK'};



So far, so good.

When I test this in mini_epn, it works as expected incrementing each time I
invoke it.

However, when I add this as a check into the Nagios configuration file and
launch Nagios, the value does not increment across multiple executions.



What am I missing?



Thanks,

Tal
