= QCG Notification Nagios Probe - ver. 2.6 =

== Installation from Sources ==

After unpacking the dist packages simple run the ./install.sh script giving as the
first argument directory where the probes should be installed to. E.g.:
{{{
  tar -xzf nagios-qcg-ntf-2.6.tar.gz
  cd nagios-qcg-ntf-2.6
  ./install.sh /opt/nagios-qcg-ntf
}}}

In order to use the probes the QCG-Notification client must be available on your system. You need to install two packages: QCG-Core and QCG-Notification (see [https://apps.man.poznan.pl/trac/qcg-notification/wiki#Installation|QCG-Notification installation]). If you install the packages directly to the same directory as the probes (e.g. /opt/nagios-qcg-ntf) you should be able to use the probes without any changes. Alternatively, if your QCG-Core and QCG-Notification will be installed to the different location, you can change the QCG_NTF_HOME and QCG_CORE_HOME variables in the check_qcg_ntf script to point to the correct place.
== Usage ==
{{{
./check_qcg_ntf (-l url | -H hostname -p port) -t timeout [-v 0-3]
-l url - QCG Notification url
-H hostname - QCG Notification host              
-p port - QCG Notification port
-t timeout - test timout given in seconds
-v 0-3 - verbosity (default: 0)
}}}
