Dear Sir,

I am writing to say that I think BB can execute commands in response to
events.

If that is the case, then BB can send 'passive service check results' to
Nag as outlined in the docco (using NCSA: see integrating with other
software for worked examples of Nag collecting trap notifications from
another host that is the focal point of traps [and runs snmptrapd]).

As long as BB has some other means of accepting events from remote
systems via either

. a log watch check - use it to check the Nag log maybe exported with
NFS or CIFS

. direct injection by socket or file

. what all the EMS's seem to looove (and in fact is HPOVs _only_
IPC method): SNMP traps

Nags event handlers can probably signal BB also.

HTH,

Yours sincerely.

'...No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the
continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a
manor of thy friend's or of thine own were. Any man's death diminishes
me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know
for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee...'
