        case "$1" in
               -w|--warning)

        then

fi


2. modify /usr/local/nagios/etc/command.cfg

# 'check_mem' command definition
define command{
        command_name    check_mem
        command_line    $USER1$/check_mem.sh -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$ -p $ARG1$
        }


3. define service{
       use                             generic-service         ; Name of service template to use
        host_name                       192.168.31.130
        service_description             check_mem
        is_volatile                     0
        check_period                    24x7
        max_check_attempts              4
        normal_check_interval           5
        retry_check_interval            1
        contact_groups                  nagios
        notification_options            w,u,c,r
        notification_interval           960
        notification_period             24x7
        check_command                   check_mem!20!5
        }
4.以上可以监控本地的内存。

5.这是网上找的内存监控脚本，从脚本看，作者并不了解linux内存的使用原理，LINUX平的有效内存不是看第二行，而是看第三行,需要对脚本修改
另外怎样查看其他机器的内存使用情况 ？
