[Nagiosplug-devel] check_dns

[Richard Mayhew]

Hi,

This issue may have been raised in the past, but here goes anyways.

The check_disk plugin is able to check an address returned by the check plugin and verify that it is the correct one. (-a option). Could we expand on this to allow mulitple addresses. In some cases with round robin DNS etc multiple ip's are returned. If one were for example returning 2 ip addresses, nagio would have a 50/50 chance of marking the check as OK or as critical.

It would be great if one could list possible ips that may be retuned.

ie 
DNS Info
test        IN    A    127.0.0.1
test        IN    A    127.0.0.2

DNS Check returns either

DNS check plugin ./check_dns -H test -s localhost -a 127.0.0.1,127.0.0.2 -t 90

Got any questions please shout.
Thanks
Richard.
