[Nagiosplug-devel] check_nt UpTime Enhancement

[Glover, Rick I.]

I added a little bit of code to give check_nt the ability to have warning and critical alerts against the uptime.  Provide -w and -c values in minutes to alert.  For example, to warn that the server was restarted within the last 2 hours use "./check_nt -v UPTIME -w 120" and to provide a critical alert for restarts within the last 15 minutes use: "./check_nt -v UPTIME -w 120 -c 15" (other required parameters were left out intentionally to keep the e-mail brief).  The purpose of this change is to catch restarts of systems in between the Nagios checks.  Some systems restart faster than the configuration of the Nagios polling.  To do this replace the "return_code=STATE_OK;" under "else if(vars_to_check==CHECK_UPTIME){" with the code below.

 

        if(check_critical_value==TRUE && (uptime / 60 <= critical_value))

            return_code=STATE_CRITICAL;

        else if (check_warning_value==TRUE && (uptime / 60 <= warning_value))

            return_code=STATE_WARNING; 

        else

            return_code=STATE_OK;
