Hi Jason,

I'm very very thankful to you for replying. I understand what you want to
say. You mean to say that i have to write a perl script that will check for
the conditions by writting a custom SQL query and return 0, 1, 2, 3 as
status code, And nagios will send a alert/notification depending on that
return status.
Do you know where should i get such a perl script on web. I dont know
anything about Perl.
i have also figure out that will my problem resolved by creating client SNMP
agent which will communicate with mysql and send the response back. and
using that response, nagios will send a notification.
Or there is any alternate way to do this.

Thanks,
Aniket.
