check_supervisorctl

Project Notes

#Intended For: Users that run supervisor & supervisorctl who want to monitor their programs / workers using Nagios.
#Required: supervisorctl, egrep, wc
#Quick Description: This script uses the supervisorctl program to check the status of all programs.
#Why?: Sometimes a program fails or doesn't start and you need to know about it.
If supervisord process is running, but the programs aren't, you will never be notified.
#Detailed Description: User supervisorctl, egrep, and wc to check for non-running programs. No command line parameters are required.
