nagios plugin to monitor directories for files older than a given # of milliseconds (java source)

Author: Sergei Haramundanis
Date: 27-Apr-2006

Description:

This plugin will scan a list of directories contained in the data file specified to determine if any files in those directories have not been modified for longer than the specified target file age in milliseconds

Lines beginning with # or blank lines in the data file are ignored.

Output:

During any run of the plugin, if it finds any files older than the specified number of milliseconds it will return a WARNING state with the last file found prefixed by the number of files that were found
to be older as in the following example:

[5] "/ftp/inbound/filename.pdf" is older than 1800000 ms

in this case the [5] indicates that it found five files older than 30 minutes (1800000 ms) and filename.pdf is the last one it found

if no files are found to be older in the directory list it will return an OK state with the message:

no files found older than ms

10-Nov-2006 version 1.2 update includes:
