check_irods - nagios plugin to check the functionality of an iRODS server


Part of my $dayjob as a sysadmin is to monitor all things.

Today I felt like checking if the users on our servers could use the local iRODS storage and thus check_irods was born!

It checks if it can:

  1. put
  2. list
  3. get
  4. remove

a temporary file.

Dependencies:

  • iRODS 3.2 with OS trusted authentication
  • mktemp
