Compatible With
check_numoffiles.sh
## Description This plugin determines the file count of a directory (without sub dirs) and compares it with the supplied thresholds. Usage: check_numoffiles -d path -w warn -c crit ## Output: The plugin prints the count of files in the directory followed by "ok" or either "warning" or "critical" if the corresponing threshold is reached. Exit Codes 0 = OK (Directory count of files checked and everything is ok) 1 = Warning (Directory count of files above "warning" threshold) 2 = Critical (Directory count of files above "critical" threshold) 3 = Unknown (Invalid command line arguments or could not determine directory size) ## Example check_numoffiles -d . -w 1000 -c 1400 121 files - ok (exit code 0) 1234 files - warning (exit code 1) 1633 files - critical (exit code 2)
On the nagios client side, NRPE is giving proper output. But, Nagios Core is showing something else. On Nagios Clinet (NRPE): /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_numoffiles.sh -d /var/named/ 213 files - ok NRPE.CFG File Configuration: command[check_files]=/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_numoffiles.sh -d /var/named/ Error comes in Nagios Core: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 203.77.200.10 -c check_files 0 files - ok I don't understand why it is showing -0 files? The plugin is pretty much simple to run.
It works but I needed to make some enhancements. Not sure how updates on NagiosExchange works so I'll mention them here. Removed dependacy on /usr/bin/basename PROGNAME=$0 PROGPATH=${PROGNAME%/*} PROGNAME=${PROGNAME##*/} Replaced -ge by -gt to allow warning/error for 0 files on directories that should be empty.
