Ironically there has not been as much crossover in my current environment (at least as of this writing) and my hobbyist/home coding/administration life in quite some time. For once I have found something I wrote at my job that has a direct translation into something other admins would find useful; a script that performs and reports multiple checks at once. In this the first part of the series a look at the motivation, helper functions and some core generic functions of the script. I provision a lot of systems, a lot of them; almost 1/week (although not at that frequency - the frequency varies) - some of these systems are virtual machines, some are cloned virtual machines, some are physical servers while in the rare instance some are just devices of some type (or really dumb servers). Part of the post installation setup is adding systems to the appropriate Nagios monitors.
