Hi Everyone -
One of the things that Nagios 3 will support is the ability to use the
embedded Perl interpreter for specific perl plugins only, instead of all
or nothing. The Nagios 3 development code currently support the
following...
Line 2 of a Perl plugin may start with one of the following:
#USE_EPN
-or-
#NO_EPN
If the #USE_EPN statement is found, Nagios will use the embedded Perl
interpreter to run the plugin. If #NO_EPN is found, it will not be used
(even if epn is compiled in and enabled in the Nagios daemon). If
neither directive is found, Nagios will default to the behavior
specified by a new 'use_embedded_perl_implicitly' variable in the main
Nagios config file.
Plugin devs - would you prefer different statements other than #USE_EPN
/ #NO_EPN, or are they okay? Any other comments or suggestions?
Ethan Galstad,
Nagios Developer
