Monitoring Exchange Replay Queue Length

Please pardon me if this has been asked and answered, but I searched and could not find anything.

We have a legacy Exchange 2010 environment that we must keep alive for the foreseeable future. Unfortunately we do occasionally encounter a situation where a database starts to generate excessive logfiles and our lagged copy of that database in the 3 server DAG encounters disk space issues.

We are trying to address this proactively and we would like to be able to alert if the replay queue length rises above certain levels. We do have other components of Exchange monitoring incorporated and working properly, but I am at a loss as to how to check this particular parameter.

Has anyone done this?

Looks like you should be able to use check_nrpe and CheckCounters to poll some of the counters that you need:

See an example of using CheckCounters here:
