The plugin.
Nagios plugin to check number of files in a directory. Written in bash, intended to be used on Linux systems. I've only tested with Nagios 3.0.2, but it should work with v2 as well. Usage is "check_dir_filecount.sh [directory] [warn value] [critical value]".
Had errors running the script. I modified it for #!/bin/bash # Return codes: STATE_OK=0 STATE_WARNING=1 STATE_CRITICAL=2 STATE_UNKNOWN=3 # Arguments: DIRECTORY=$1 WARNLEVEL=$2 CRITLEVEL=$3 # Get current file count: FCOUNT=`ls -l $DIRECTORY |grep -v tot* |wc -l` #echo "Total files in $DIRECTORY is $FCOUNT" if [ $FCOUNT -lt $WARNLEVEL ]; then echo "OK, $FCOUNT items in $DIRECTORY|files=$FCOUNT" exitstatus=$STATE_OK exit $exitstatus fi if [ $FCOUNT -gt $CRITLEVEL ]; then echo "CRITICAL: $FCOUNT items in $DIRECTORY|files=$FCOUNT" exitstatus=$STATE_CRITICAL exit $exitstatus fi if [ $FCOUNT -gt $WARNLEVEL ]; then echo "WARNING: $FCOUNT items in $DIRECTORY|files=$FCOUNT" exitstatus=$STATE_WARNING exit $exitstatus fi and it works fine
