check_snmp or check_by_ssh can be used to get this info.

SNMP is good for secure clusters, of servers with fairly low overhead.

If you are running check over the open internet check_by_ssh is more
secure, but there's more overhead involved in the connection. Plus, you
must also istall the plugins you are interested in on the remote host.
