Subject: [Nagios-users] nagios plugins output strings

Hey, thanks.

Got a question:  Is the possible output strings for the plugins listed anywhere?  Or are there examples of the output from each plugin somewhere?  I'm looking thru the c files but it is slow going.  For example, in reading check_disk.c , the output is basically this format:

DISK [OK|WARNING|CRITICAL|UNKNOWN][preamble] output | perf

So, I'm in the process of flesh this out with what would be in the preamble, output, and perf (with the intent to document some guidance for our ops team for the various results that the plugins produce).

Thanks,

Mike
