...find one that works for you and let us know if you have any questions on configuring the check.

I modified a plugin on the exchange:
https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/P ... 29/details
That can do this. You will need to install a few Perl modules first to get it working:
Code: Select all
cpan -i Net::SFTP::Foreign
cpan -i Net::FTPSSL
cpan -i IO::Pty
In action:
Code: Select all
[root@localhost libexec]# ./check_sftp_size.pl --host 192.168.67.105 --user root --password welcome123 --dir /prd --file Product_Colorway_Data.log --sftp
WARNING: Got file Product_Colorway_Data.log but it was empty!
# I add some content to the file
[root@localhost libexec]# ./check_sftp_size.pl --host 192.168.67.105 --user root --password hunter2 --dir /prd --file Product_Colorway_Data.log --sftp
Connected to 192.168.67.105, logged in as root, chdir'ed to /prd, downloaded Product_Colorway_Data.log

You would need to define a check period, something like this, and then assign it to that service.
Code: Select all
define timeperiod{
timeperiod_name sun-3am
alias Sun 3am
sunday 02:55-03:05
}
This would give it a 10 minute window to check the service. There isn't a way to tell it to check 'exactly' at 3:00 due to scheduling.
