  PNP template for check_apache2.sh Binary Talks | (3)

  This is a PNP template which works quite well for me when there's need to identify possible bottlenecks or unexpected behavior of the Apache webserver.

  CPU check plugin for Nagios Binary Talks | (5)

  I've just finished version 1.0 of a CPU check plugin which is sh-compliant (as always) and calculates utilization through Jiffies rather than using another third party tool like iostat or top. This means it should work on all Linux machines right out of the box without the need to install additional software. Frankly speaking the performance of the script is slightly worse than the performance of most of the other CPU check plugins due to the sacrifice of parsing iostat or top output, but I nevertheless wanted to do this since calculating CPU utilization through Jiffies instead of parsing another tool's ...
