#! /bin/sh # # Newest file in a directory plugin for Nagios. # Written by Chad Phillips (chad@apartmentlines.com) # Last Modified: 2016-04-21 PROGPATH=`dirname $0` STATE_OK=0 STATE_WARNING=1 STATE_CRITICAL=2 STATE_UNKNOWN=3 STATE_DEPENDENT=4 print_usage() { echo " Usage: check_newest_file_age --dirs | -d <directories> [-w <max_age>] [-c <max_age>] [-W] [-C] [-t <time_unit>] [-V] [--check-dirs] [--base-dir <directory>] Usage: check_newest_file_age --help | -h Description: This plugin pulls the most recently created file in each specified directory, and checks it's created time against the current time. If the maximum age of the file is exceeded, a warning/critical message is returned as appropriate. This is useful for examining backup directories for freshness. Tested to work on Linux/FreeBSD/OS X. The following arguments are accepted: --dirs | -d A space separated list of directories to examine. Each directory will be checked for the newest created file in that directory. -w (Optional) Generate a warning message if the last created file is older than this value. Defaults to 26 hours. -c (Optional) Generate a critical message if the last created file is older than this value. Defaults to 52 hours. -W (Optional) If set, a warning message will be returned if the specified directory doesn't exist, or there are no checkable files in the specified directory. -C (Optional) If set, a critical message will be returned if the specified directory doesn't exist, or there are no checkable files in the specified directory. -t (Optional) The time unit used for the -w and -c values. Must be one of: seconds, minutes, hours, days. Defaults to hours. -V (Optional) Output verbose information about all checked directories. Default is only to print verbose information for directories with non-OK states. --check-dirs (Optional) If set, directories inside the specified directory will also be checked for their creation time. Note that this check is not recursive. Without this option, only real files inside the specified directory will be checked. --base-dir (Optional) If set, this path will be prepended to all checked directories. --help | -h Print this help and exit. Examples: Generate a warning if the newest file in /backups is more than 26 hours old, and a critical if it's more than 52 hours old... check_newest_file_age -d \"/backups\" Generate a warning if the newest file in /backups/bill or /backups/dave is more than one week old, or a critical if it's more than two weeks old... check_newest_file_age -d \"/backups/bill /backups/dave\" -w 7 -c 14 -t days Caveats: Although multiple directories can be specified, only one set of warning/critical times can be supplied. Linux doesn't seem to have an easy way to check file/directory creation time, so file/directory last modification time is used instead.
