check_apt v2.2 (monitoring-plugins 2.2)
Copyright (c) 2006-2008 Monitoring Plugins Development Team
	<devel@monitoring-plugins.org>

This plugin checks for software updates on systems that use
package management systems based on the apt-get(8) command
found in Debian GNU/Linux


Usage:
check_apt [[-d|-u|-U]opts] [-n] [-t timeout]

Options:
 -h, --help
    Print detailed help screen
 -V, --version
    Print version information
 -t, --timeout=INTEGER
    Seconds before plugin times out (default: 10)
 -U, --upgrade=OPTS
    [Default] Perform an upgrade.  If an optional OPTS argument is provided,
    apt-get will be run with these command line options instead of the
    default (-o 'Debug::NoLocking=true' -s -qq).
    Note that you may be required to have root privileges if you do not use
    the default options.
 -d, --dist-upgrade=OPTS
    Perform a dist-upgrade instead of normal upgrade. Like with -U OPTS
    can be provided to override the default options.
  -n, --no-upgrade
    Do not run the upgrade.  Probably not useful (without -u at least).
 -i, --include=REGEXP
    Include only packages matching REGEXP.  Can be specified multiple times
    the values will be combined together.  Any packages matching this list
    cause the plugin to return WARNING status.  Others will be ignored.
    Default is to include all packages.
 -e, --exclude=REGEXP
    Exclude packages matching REGEXP from the list of packages that would
    otherwise be included.  Can be specified multiple times; the values
    will be combined together.  Default is to exclude no packages.
 -c, --critical=REGEXP
    If the full package information of any of the upgradable packages match
    this REGEXP, the plugin will return CRITICAL status.  Can be specified
    multiple times like above.  Default is a regexp matching security
    upgrades for Debian and Ubuntu:
    	^[^\(]*\(.* (Debian-Security:|Ubuntu:[^/]*/[^-]*-security)
    Note that the package must first match the include list before its
    information is compared against the critical list.

The following options require root privileges and should be used with care:

 -u, --update=OPTS
    First perform an 'apt-get update'.  An optional OPTS parameter overrides
    the default options.  Note: you may also need to adjust the global
    timeout (with -t) to prevent the plugin from timing out if apt-get
    upgrade is expected to take longer than the default timeout.

Copyright (c) 2000-2008 Monitoring Plugins Development Team
	<devel@monitoring-plugins.org>

This plugin uses SSH to execute commands on a remote host

Usage:
 check_by_ssh -H <host> -C <command> [-fqv] [-1|-2] [-4|-6]
       [-S [lines]] [-E [lines]] [-t timeout] [-i identity]
       [-l user] [-n name] [-s servicelist] [-O outputfile]
       [-p port] [-o ssh-option] [-F configfile]

Options:
 -h, --help
    Print detailed help screen
 -V, --version
    Print version information
 -H, --hostname=ADDRESS
    Host name, IP Address, or unix socket (must be an absolute path)

    Ignore all or (if specified) first n lines on STDOUT [optional]
 -E, --skip-stderr[=n]
    Ignore all or (if specified) first n lines on STDERR [optional]
 -f
    tells ssh to fork rather than create a tty [optional]. This will always return OK if ssh is executed
 -C, --command='COMMAND STRING'
    command to execute on the remote machine
 -l, --logname=USERNAME
    SSH user name on remote host [optional]
 -i, --identity=KEYFILE
    identity of an authorized key [optional]
 -O, --output=FILE
    external command file for monitoring [optional]
 -s, --services=LIST
    list of monitoring service names, separated by ':' [optional]
 -n, --name=NAME
    short name of host in the monitoring configuration [optional]
 -o, --ssh-option=OPTION
    Call ssh with '-o OPTION' (may be used multiple times) [optional]
 -F, --configfile
    Tell ssh to use this configfile [optional]

 -v, --verbose
    Show details for command-line debugging (output may be truncated by
    the monitoring system)

 The most common mode of use is to refer to a local identity file with
 the '-i' option. In this mode, the identity pair should have a null
 passphrase and the public key should be listed in the authorized_keys
 file of the remote host. Usually the key will be restricted to running
 only one command on the remote server. If the remote SSH server tracks
 invocation arguments, the one remote program may be an agent that can
 execute additional commands as proxy

 To use passive mode, provide multiple '-C' options, and provide
 all of -O, -s, and -n options (servicelist order must match '-C'options)

Examples:
 $ check_by_ssh -H localhost -n lh -s c1:c2:c3 -C uptime -C uptime -C uptime -O /tmp/foo
 $ cat /tmp/foo
 [1080933700] PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT;flint;c1;0; up 2 days

Notes:
 This plugin will attempt to open an HTTP connection with the host.
 Successful connects return STATE_OK, refusals and timeouts return STATE_CRITICAL
 other errors return STATE_UNKNOWN.  Successful connects, but incorrect reponse
 messages from the host result in STATE_WARNING return values.  If you are
 checking a virtual server that uses 'host headers' you must supply the FQDN
 (fully qualified domain name) as the [host_name] argument.

 This plugin can also check whether an SSL enabled web server is able to
 serve content (optionally within a specified time) or whether the X509 
 certificate is still valid for the specified number of days.

 Please note that this plugin does not check if the presented server
 certificate matches the hostname of the server, or if the certificate
 has a valid chain of trust to one of the locally installed CAs.

Examples:
 CHECK CONTENT: check_http -w 5 -c 10 --ssl -H www.verisign.com

 When the 'www.verisign.com' server returns its content within 5 seconds,
 a STATE_OK will be returned. When the server returns its content but exceeds
 the 5-second threshold, a STATE_WARNING will be returned. When an error occurs,
 a STATE_CRITICAL will be returned.

 CHECK CERTIFICATE: check_http -H www.verisign.com -C 14

 When the certificate of 'www.verisign.com' is valid for more than 14 days,
 a STATE_OK is returned. When the certificate is still valid, but for less than
 14 days, a STATE_WARNING is returned. A STATE_CRITICAL will be returned when
 the certificate is expired.


 CHECK CERTIFICATE: check_http -H www.verisign.com -C 30,14

 When the certificate of 'www.verisign.com' is valid for more than 30 days,
 a STATE_OK is returned. When the certificate is still valid, but for less than
 30 days, but more than 14 days, a STATE_WARNING is returned.
 A STATE_CRITICAL will be returned when certificate expires in less than 14 days
 CHECK SSL WEBSERVER CONTENT VIA PROXY USING HTTP 1.1 CONNECT: 

 check_http -I 192.168.100.35 -p 80 -u https://www.verisign.com/ -S -j CONNECT -H www.verisign.com 
 all these options are needed: -I <proxy> -p <proxy-port> -u <check-url> -S(sl) -j CONNECT -H <webserver>
 a STATE_OK will be returned. When the server returns its content but exceeds
 the 5-second threshold, a STATE_WARNING will be returned. When an error occurs,
 a STATE_CRITICAL will be returned.

Notes:
 The -H switch is optional. Naming a host (or several) to check is not.

 Threshold format for -w and -c is 200.25,60% for 200.25 msec RTA and 60%
 packet loss.  The default values should work well for most users.
 You can specify different RTA factors using the standardized abbreviations
 us (microseconds), ms (milliseconds, default) or just plain s for seconds.

 The -v switch can be specified several times for increased verbosity.

   -T (--type)       SNMP ifType integer value (see http://www.iana.org/assignments/ianaiftype-mib)
   -p (--port)       SNMP port (default 161)
   -I (--ifmib)      Agent supports IFMIB ifXTable. Do not use if
                     you don't know what this is. 
   -n (--name)       the value should match the returned ifName
                     (Implies the use of -I)
   -w (--warn =i|w|c) ignore|warn|crit if the interface is dormant (default critical)

   -h (--help)       usage help 

 -k or -d or -T must be specified

Note: either -k or -d or -T must be specified and -d and -T are much more network 
intensive.  Use it sparingly or not at all.  -n is used to match against
a much more descriptive ifName value in the IfXTable to verify that the
snmpkey has not changed to some other network interface after a reboot.

   Checks the number of messages in the mail queue (supports multiple sendmail queues, qmail)
   Feedback/patches to support non-sendmail mailqueue welcome

-w (--warning)   = Min. number of messages in queue to generate warning
-c (--critical)  = Min. number of messages in queue to generate critical alert ( w < c )
-W (--Warning)   = Min. number of messages for same domain in queue to generate warning

Note: -w and -c are required arguments.  -W and -C are optional.
 -W and -C are applied to domains listed on the queues - both FROM and TO. (sendmail)
 -W and -C are applied message not yet preproccessed. (qmail)
 This plugin tries to autodetect which mailserver you are running,
 you can override the autodetection with -M.
 This plugin uses the system mailq command (sendmail) or qmail-stat (qmail)
 to look at the queues. Mailq can usually only be accessed by root or 
 a TrustedUser. You will have to set appropriate permissions for the plugin to work.

Copyright (c) 1999 Ethan Galstad <nagios@nagios.org>
Copyright (c) 1999-2007 Monitoring Plugins Development Team
	<devel@monitoring-plugins.org>

This plugin will check either the average or maximum value of one of the
two variables recorded in an MRTG log file.


Usage:
check_mrtg -F log_file -a <AVG | MAX> -v variable -w warning -c critical
[-l label] [-u units] [-e expire_minutes] [-t timeout] [-v]

Options:
 -h, --help
    Print detailed help screen
 -V, --version
    Print version information
 -F, --logfile=FILE
   The MRTG log file containing the data you want to monitor
 -e, --expires=MINUTES
   Minutes before MRTG data is considered to be too old
 -a, --aggregation=AVG|MAX
   Should we check average or maximum values?
 -v, --variable=INTEGER
   Which variable set should we inspect? (1 or 2)
 -w, --warning=INTEGER
   Threshold value for data to result in WARNING status
 -c, --critical=INTEGER
   Threshold value for data to result in CRITICAL status
 -l, --label=STRING
   Type label for data (Examples: Conns, "Processor Load", In, Out)
 -u, --units=STRING
   Option units label for data (Example: Packets/Sec, Errors/Sec,
   "Bytes Per Second", "%% Utilization")

 If the value exceeds the <vwl> threshold, a WARNING status is returned. If
 the value exceeds the <vcl> threshold, a CRITICAL status is returned.  If
 the data in the log file is older than <expire_minutes> old, a WARNING
 status is returned and a warning message is printed.

 This plugin is useful for monitoring MRTG data that does not correspond to
 bandwidth usage.  (Use the check_mrtgtraf plugin for monitoring bandwidth).
 It can be used to monitor any kind of data that MRTG is monitoring - errors,
 packets/sec, etc.  I use MRTG in conjunction with the Novell NLM that allows
 me to track processor utilization, user connections, drive space, etc and
 this plugin works well for monitoring that kind of data as well.

Notes:
 - This plugin only monitors one of the two variables stored in the MRTG log
   file.  If you want to monitor both values you will have to define two
   commands with different values for the <variable> argument.  Of course,
   you can always hack the code to make this plugin work for you...
 - MRTG stands for the Multi Router Traffic Grapher.  It can be downloaded from
   http://ee-staff.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/mrtg.html

check_mrtgtraf v2.2 (monitoring-plugins 2.2)
Copyright (c) 1999 Ethan Galstad <nagios@nagios.org>
Copyright (c) 1999-2007 Monitoring Plugins Development Team
	<devel@monitoring-plugins.org>

This plugin will check the incoming/outgoing transfer rates of a router,
switch, etc recorded in an MRTG log.  If the newest log entry is older
than <expire_minutes>, a WARNING status is returned. If either the
incoming or outgoing rates exceed the <icl> or <ocl> thresholds (in
Bytes/sec), a CRITICAL status results.  If either of the rates exceed
the <iwl> or <owl> thresholds (in Bytes/sec), a WARNING status results.


Usage check_mrtgtraf -F <log_file> -a <AVG | MAX> -w <warning_pair>
-c <critical_pair> [-e expire_minutes]

Options:
 -h, --help
    Print detailed help screen
 -V, --version
    Print version information
 -F, --filename=STRING
    File to read log from
 -e, --expires=INTEGER
    Minutes after which log expires
 -a, --aggregation=(AVG|MAX)
    Test average or maximum
 -w, --warning
    Warning threshold pair <incoming>,<outgoing>
 -c, --critical
    Critical threshold pair <incoming>,<outgoing>

Notes:
 - MRTG stands for Multi Router Traffic Grapher. It can be downloaded from
   http://ee-staff.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/mrtg.html
 - While MRTG can monitor things other than traffic rates, this
   plugin probably won't work with much else without modification.
 - The calculated i/o rates are a little off from what MRTG actually
   reports.  I'm not sure why this is right now, but will look into it
   for future enhancements of this plugin.

check_nt v2.2 (monitoring-plugins 2.2)
Copyright (c) 2000 Yves Rubin (rubiyz@yahoo.com)
Copyright (c) 2000-2007 Monitoring Plugins Development Team
	<devel@monitoring-plugins.org>

This plugin collects data from the NSClient service running on a
Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 server.


Usage:
check_nt -H host -v variable [-p port] [-w warning] [-c critical]
[-l params] [-d SHOWALL] [-u] [-t timeout]

Options:
 -h, --help
    Print detailed help screen
 -V, --version
    Print version information
Options:
 -H, --hostname=HOST
   Name of the host to check
 -p, --port=INTEGER
   Optional port number (default: 1248)
 -s, --secret=<password>
   Password needed for the request
 -w, --warning=INTEGER
   Threshold which will result in a warning status
 -c, --critical=INTEGER
   Threshold which will result in a critical status
 -t, --timeout=INTEGER
   Seconds before connection attempt times out (default:  -l, --params=<parameters>
   Parameters passed to specified check (see below) -d, --display={SHOWALL}
   Display options (currently only SHOWALL works) -u, --unknown-timeout
   Return UNKNOWN on timeouts10)
 -h, --help
   Print this help screen
 -V, --version
   Print version information
 -v, --variable=STRING
   Variable to check

Valid variables are:
 CLIENTVERSION = Get the NSClient version
  If -l <version> is specified, will return warning if versions differ.
 CPULOAD =
  Average CPU load on last x minutes.
  Request a -l parameter with the following syntax:
  -l <minutes range>,<warning threshold>,<critical threshold>.
  <minute range> should be less than 24*60.
  Thresholds are percentage and up to 10 requests can be done in one shot.
  ie: -l 60,90,95,120,90,95
 UPTIME =
  Get the uptime of the machine.
  -l <unit> 
  <unit> = seconds, minutes, hours, or days. (default: minutes)
  Thresholds will use the unit specified above.
 USEDDISKSPACE =
  Size and percentage of disk use.
  Request a -l parameter containing the drive letter only.
  Warning and critical thresholds can be specified with -w and -c.
 MEMUSE =
  Memory use.
  Warning and critical thresholds can be specified with -w and -c.
 SERVICESTATE =
  Check the state of one or several services.
  Request a -l parameters with the following syntax:
  -l <service1>,<service2>,<service3>,...
  You can specify -d SHOWALL in case you want to see working services
  in the returned string.
 PROCSTATE =
  Check if one or several process are running.
  Same syntax as SERVICESTATE.
 COUNTER =
  Check any performance counter of Windows NT/2000.
	Request a -l parameters with the following syntax:
	-l "\\<performance object>\\counter","<description>
	The <description> parameter is optional and is given to a printf 
  output command which requires a float parameter.
  If <description> does not include "%%", it is used as a label.
  Some examples:
  "Paging file usage is %%.2f %%%%"
  "%%.f %%%% paging file used."
 INSTANCES =
  Check any performance counter object of Windows NT/2000.
  Syntax: check_nt -H <hostname> -p <port> -v INSTANCES -l <counter object>
  <counter object> is a Windows Perfmon Counter object (eg. Process),
  if it is two words, it should be enclosed in quotes
  The returned results will be a comma-separated list of instances on 
   the selected computer for that object.
  The purpose of this is to be run from command line to determine what instances
   are available for monitoring without having to log onto the Windows server
    to run Perfmon directly.
  It can also be used in scripts that automatically create the monitoring service
   configuration files.
  Some examples:
  check_nt -H 192.168.1.1 -p 1248 -v INSTANCES -l Process

Notes:
 - The NSClient service should be running on the server to get any information
   (http://nsclient.ready2run.nl).
 - Critical thresholds should be lower than warning thresholds
 - Default port 1248 is sometimes in use by other services. The error
   output when this happens contains "Cannot map xxxxx to protocol number".
   One fix for this is to change the port to something else on check_nt 
   and on the client service it's connecting to.
