NAME
xynagios - adaptor for using Nagios checks with Xymon
SYNOPSIS
xynagios [options --] plugin [options ...]
DESCRIPTION
xynagios runs a Nagios check, and reports its output in a way compatible with the Xymon (Hobbit, BB) monitoring system. The Xymon test name is taken from the plugin output if it starts with test_name OK|WARNING|CRITICAL|ERROR|UNKNOWN:. Otherwise, the basename of the plugin filename is used. A check_ prefix is removed for brevity.
OPTIONS
--hostname=host Report tests as this host. --strip=prefix Remove prefix (regexp) from test names. The prefix "check_" is always removed before stripping other prefixes. Useful for trimming down overly verbose Nagios test names, e.g. "check_postgres_database_size" to "database_size". --trends In addition to printing performance data in the status report (suitable for the NCV/SPLITNCV xymond_rrd modules), send in a data report for hostname.trends. This rrd module is more robust. --help --version Print help text and version, and exit.
