Nagios like configuration

check_planetdiff could be called localy or remotely via check_by_ssh or NRPE.

here a sample definition to check remotely by ssh

Command definition

# 'check_ssh_planetdiff' command definition
define command {
        command_name    check_ssh_planetdiff
        command_line    $USER1$/check_by_ssh -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C "/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_planetdiff -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$ --state-file $ARG3$ -p"
}

Notice the last -p arg for performance data is optionnal, remove it if don’t needed.

the service itself:

# planet diff delay
define service {
       use                             paulla-service
       service_description             delay planet diff
       check_command                   check_ssh_planetdiff!0.0:3600.0!0.0:21600.0!/home/mapnik/.osmosis/state.txt
       host_name                       biscaou
}

Checks

Less than 1 hour returns OK:

>>> state_file_ok = "src/paulla/checkplanetdiff/tests/state_ok.txt"
>>> pprint(get_lines_from_file(state_file_ok))
['#Tue Oct 23 22:05:12 CEST 2012',
 'sequenceNumber=59592',
 'timestamp=2012-10-23T20\\:04\\:02Z']

>>> cmd_ok = "bin/test_check_planetdiff -w 0.0:3600.0 -c 0.0:21600.0 --state-file %s" % state_file_ok
>>> p_ok = subprocess.Popen(cmd_ok.split(), stdout=subprocess.PIPE)

Status code is 0 -> OK:

>>> p_ok.wait()
0

String output:

>>> p_ok.stdout.read()
'OK: delay : 28, sequence number : 59592\n'

with perfdata option:

>>> cmd_ok = "bin/test_check_planetdiff -w 0.0:3600.0 -c 0.0:21600.0 --state-file %s -p" % state_file_ok
>>> p_ok = subprocess.Popen(cmd_ok.split(), stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
>>> p_ok.stdout.read()
'OK: delay : 28, sequence number : 59592|delayed=28s;3600;21600;;\n'

Delay between 1 hour and 6 returns WARNING:

>>> state_file_warn = "src/paulla/checkplanetdiff/tests/state_warning.txt"

>>> p_warn = subprocess.Popen(cmd_warn.split(), stdout=subprocess.PIPE)

Status code is 1 -> WARNING:

>>> p_warn.wait()
1

String output:

>>> p_warn.stdout.read()
'WARN: delay : 13227, sequence number : 59372\n'

with perfdata option:

>>> cmd_warn = "bin/test_check_planetdiff -w 0.0:3600.0 -c 0.0:21600.0 --state-file %s -p" % state_file_warn

Status code is 2 -> CRITICAL:

>>> p_crit.wait()
2

String output:
