Guys and gals,
following problem:
In a distributed environment i transmit Service check results via the NSCA Daemon. On the central server i want to run each time when a PING Service result comes in run an event handler. Is that possible and if so how?
The event handler shall basically take the PING results (which is transmitted by send_nsca) and write the output into a simple DB. The DB then gets queried by a modified check_ping and returns the status according to the DB entries. This is thought as workaround for passive host checks. The passive host check part is working already, however as said i need an event handler to insert (update) the DB each time a Service PING result comes in. The event handler needs also to run each time regardless of what the result/return-code is (lets say as sort of a host freshness check).
Any pointers highly appreciated.
Tom
