drush_nagios Documentation

Introduction

Isolated Nagios/Icinga functionality from drush_multi, for Nagios/Icinga monitoring via NRPE Plugin or ssh as Drush plugin.

It just prints a message and exit with an exit status (severity).

You can find the original project page at http://drupal.org/project/drush_nagios .

Commands

drush_nagios includes the following commands:

check-updates

Checks for pending updates including Drupal (core), modules and themes grouped by type/serverity of update followed by the corresonding modules.

This command has 2 option to ignore projects.

• Via --ignore option, followed by project or comma seperated list of projects
• Or via --ignore-locked option, which ignores project that are locked via drush pm-update --lock

In both cases the ignored projects does not affect the exit status but they got listed with their severity.

check-db-updates

Checks for pending database updates.

check-drupal-requirements

Anything at Drupals status report (Administer -> Reports -> Status report) for met requirements and their serverity, such as:

• module updates
• last run of cron
• database schema
• files directory writability
• access to update.php
• files directory protection via .htaccess
• every project that implements hook_requirements()

Like in check-updates, this command has a --ignore option for ignoring requirements/facilities too with the same behaviour as above.

Ignored requirements does not affect the exit status but they got listed with their severity.
