Nagios Support Forum

Hi Everyone !!!

We need monitor a process with the next logical:

If the execution process return a string, the process status is ok.
If the execution process return a string void, the process status is failed.

How can i implement this logical in Nagios XI?

We are using:

Nagios XI Version : 2014R2.6
x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.0 (Maipo)
Gnome is not installed

It sounds like you want to write your own plugin, or a wrapper script that runs an existing plugin.

Do you have any plugins that sort of do what you want? What have you tried?
