Alert Types to setup in Nagios

a.  Regular Expression HTTP monitor

We need the ability to monitor a part of a page.   The content needs to be able to match content on a page using regular expressions.  Also needed is the ability to log into the page.  Example of expression: /Temp_P18.*\n.*\n.*;(.*) Deg. C.*\n.*\n.*\n.*;(.*) %/

We need to be able to catch the values in the "()" areas listed above and check against those values.

We're experiencing issues with some monitors giving a HTTP-FORBIDDEN issue with the check_http scripts.

nrpe Nagios Remote Process Execution

Monitoring Strategy and Architecture

In the attached child pages is information about IT Monitoring at Nu Skin.  This includes both the current state of monitoring, some research on best practices and a strategy for where we should take monitoring.  We want to move to more of a model where we manage to service levels not just responding to outage events.

How to Selecting Web Hosting

For most Web hosting you will need LAMP (Linux Apache MySQL PHP) support.  Make sure your solution provides that as well as a C-panel (Control Panel) which you use to upload your web site to their servers and to manage your site.
