=head1 NAME
pagerduty_nagios -- Send Nagios events to the PagerDuty alert system
=head1 SYNOPSIS
pagerduty_nagios enqueue [options]
pagerduty_nagios flush [options]
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This script passes events from Nagios to the PagerDuty alert system. It's
meant to be run as a Nagios notification plugin. For more details, please see
the PagerDuty Nagios integration docs at:
http://www.pagerduty.com/docs/nagios-integration.
When called in the "enqueue" mode, the script loads a Nagios notification out
of the environment and into the event queue. It then tries to flush the
queue by sending any enqueued events to the PagerDuty server. The script is
typically invoked in this mode from a Nagios notification handler.
When called in the "flush" mode, the script simply tries to send any enqueued
events to the PagerDuty server. This mode is typically invoked by cron. The
purpose of this mode is to retry any events that couldn't be sent to the
PagerDuty server for whatever reason when they were initially enqueued.
=head1 OPTIONS
--api-base URL
The base URL used to communicate with PagerDuty. The default option here
should be fine, but adjusting it may make sense if your firewall doesn't
pass HTTPS traffic for some reason. See the PagerDuty Nagios integration
docs for details.
--field KEY=VALUE
Add this key-value pair to the event being passed to PagerDuty. The script
automatically gathers Nagios macros out of the environment, so there's no
need to specify these explicitly. This option can be repeated as many
times as necessary to pass multiple key-value pairs. This option is only
useful when an event is being enqueued.0
--help
Display documentation for the script.
--queue-dir DIR
Path to the directory to use to store the event queue. By default, we use
/tmp/pagerduty_nagios.
--verbose
Turn on extra debugging information. Useful for debugging.
