I'm hoping this is something that's so simple I'm overlooking it.
I'm trying to convince my organization to switch to monitoring with PandoraFMS. I'm a beginning user with it, and have it configured, and monitoring hardware as well as we could hope. I know there's a lot of untapped power in it, but that will hopefully come in the future.
My big hang up now is that I need to monitor approximately 50 websites, just to make sure they're responding. It doesn't need to perform logins, searches, etc (like can be done with enterprise apparently), just go to a URL, and make sure it's there, and that it responds.
I don't know where to start though. I imagine something could be done with wget from the server itself (running linux), but I'm not sure where to start with a module to check a URL, and perhaps report back the latency?
Any help would be very appreciated
