Project Notes
check_writable is a Nagios plugin that checks if one or more directories are writable by: - checking that the supplied directory is indeed a directory - checking if the the filesystem permissions are OK - creating a temporary file - writing random data to the temporary file (and reading it back) It return a critical status if one of the tests fails

Found a problem with this plugin
by roderick@nedstars.nl, April 30, 2012
I used this plugin on a system where we sometimes have controller timeouts to check if the thing could still write a file. However this generates an error that is not handled correctly an thus does not report a CRITICAL status. The filesystem goes read only and that is not handled correctly by the plugin.
