Basic monitor that checks if the Retrospect client is up and running.
Basic monitor that checks if the Retrospect client is up and running.

This script was quickly hacked together for my current customer, as a Q&D solution for their monitoring needs. It's no beauty, but it works. Written in ksh and tested with:
* Solaris 8
* NRPE 1.9
* Retrospect 7.0

Should work with other versions as well.

The script sends a Critical if the required process is not running.

UPDATE 19/06/2006:
Cleaned up the script a bit and added some checks that are considered the Right Thing to do. Should have done this -way- earlier!
