Re: [Bacula-users] Monitoring bacula with Nagios
2009-03-26 22:00:21
I found a check_bacula plugin somewhere - I think on nagiosexchange. It
looks at the bacula log files for the last day, and issues a warning if
any backups have failed. It also reports on the total number of backups.
It's far from perfect (the warning state always remains exactly until
midnight, for instance) but for the time being is useful enough for me.
And it is a perl script, so it should be easy enough to customize.
The copyright notice for that plugin says "Guy Van Sanden" and gives the
URL http://nocturn.vbsnet.be
