[chef] Re: Re: Re: Need a monitoring automation cookbook

Yes.  I'm looking for a very custom solution that will automate deploying monitoring to our custom products as each new server is deployed.

Our approach has been to deploy NRPE to every server and create a /etc/nagios/nrpe.d directory.

Then our individual app cookbooks deploy the config file with the checks they need into /etc/nagios/nrpe.d

Our Nagios server recipe queries the Chef database for nodes containing the app recipes and auto-generates NRPE checks to those nodes.
