You can display the usage for a plugin with "--help". From the nagios server:
Code: Select all
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_http --help
check_http will check to see if a url exists and then match a string (optional).
The command definition usually looks like:
Code: Select all
define command {
command_name check_http
command_line $USER1$/check_http -I $HOSTADDRESS$ $ARG1$
}
Where $ARG1$ includes all options - thresholds, string checks, etc.

Can you be a bit more specific?
If you just want to check if a URL is reachable:
Code: Select all
check_http -H www.nagios.org -u "/about"
If you are looking for a specific string in a page:
Code: Select all
check_http -H www.nagios.org -u "/about" -s "monitoring"
