This plugin checks the status of a given Upstart job name on Linux hosts (e.g. Ubuntu) and reports a warning if the job is in the process of stopping and critical if it's stopped.

Correct URL Link:
https://github.com/jg10/Nagios-Plugins/blob/master/check_upstart_status.pl

If this was documented and updated with how-to and correct links, I would have given this a 5 start.

Usage:
./check_upstart_status.pl -j {jobname}

Nagios Codes:
0 = ok
1 = warn
2 = crit
3 = unknown

Warning is returned if job is in the process of stopping and Critical if job is stopped.

This would be nice to have a host option and such but if you use check_nrpe and install this on the monitor host, you can manage it remotely.

Hope this helps anyone in the future.
