check_bacula_log

Since I run backups late night I needed also yesterday's backups checked, and did: after #my $date = strftime("%d-%b-%Y", localtime); I added: #Yesterday :) #http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3506475/how-do-i-get-yesterdays-date-using-localtime my $date = strftime("%d-%b-%Y", localtime); my ($sec, $min, $hour, $mday, $mon, $year) = localtime(); my $yesterday_midday=timelocal(0,0,12,$mday,$mon,$year) - 24*60*60; ($sec, $min, $hour, $mday, $mon, $year) = localtime($yesterday_midday); my $yesterdate = strftime("%d-%b-%Y", localtime($yesterday_midday)); and added an OR to the date check further down: # want only todays and yesterdays jobs next unless ($job{'Start time'} =~ m/^Q$dateEs/) or ($job{'Start time'} =~ m/^Q$yesterdateEs/); thanks !

hello, nice plugin. my backup runs at night an finishes before midnight so i changed the date: my $date = strftime("%d-%b-%Y", localtime(time-86400)); regards alfred

Sorry to put it out here but I cannot find a support email Status always returns as follows: Check of service '24 Hour Bacula Status' on host 'localhost' did not exit properly! debug shows the following [1276483758.016594] [016.1] [pid=13917] HOST: localhost, SERVICE: 24 Hour Bacula Status, CHECK TYPE: Active, OPTIONS: 0, SCHEDULED: Yes, RESCHEDULE: Yes, EXITED OK: No, RETURN CODE: 3, OUTPUT: **ePN failed to compile /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_bacula_log: "Variable "$PROGNAME" will not stay shared at (eval 1) line 181," at /usr/lib/nagios3/p1.pl line 250.n I can provide more information if needed ... I would love this script as it does exactly what I need !

hi. i've improved the code to report names of failed jobs, also made code more extensible if you want to fill other info to the job, such change can be accomplised with little effort. also i renamed the plugin to check_backula_log, not to conflict with check_bacula that is in bacula contrib sources. http://cvs.pld-linux.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/packages/nagios-plugin-check_bacula_log/check_bacula_log.pl
