Why don´t you use the "performance data" functions of Nagios?
They´re specially built for gathering the results of your checks

Betreff: [Nagios-users] "check result" event handler?


Hi.

I'm using nagios 2.0b2 to monitor like 29 servers and network equipment. I'm
really happy with its set of features and flexibility in general.

We even screwed two LCD monitors into the external datacenter wall so we can
monitor.

As I needed a custom web interface, I had to setup event handlers and
integrate nagios to mysql. That is working fine, except that, by definition,
nagios' services event handler will only be trigger when a status changes.

That won't give me enough information. 

I'd like to know if there is any way to send all monitoring data to a
database using something like "check result event handlers", even if status
does not change.

One of my objectives is to build GD graphis using historic results of
certain data (eg, network usage, taken from switches).

I've read most (maybe all) of the documentation and the only way I've think
to solve this is kind of ugly: I'd use wrappers to call nagios scripts, and
these wrappers would handle database update...

What do you think?
