check_hadoop_jobtrackers

Project Notes

I made this little script, to parse output from the adminpage, normally found at http://jobtracker.company.com:50030/jobtracker.jsp
It will check for status, and number of machines, and also give performanceoutput.
Nagios-config would look something like this;

define service{
use generic_service
service_description Jobtracker
check_command check_jobtracker
hosts jobtracker.company.com
}

define command{
command_name check_jobtracker
command_line $USER1$/check_hadoop_jobtracker.pl -H jobtracker.company.com -w 50 -c 40 -b 1 -p 50030
}

Plugin takes these options:
