Hi,

If anyone is using Nagios/Shinken for monitoring, you can find a  
couple of plugins here:

Right now I've got one that measures how many documents are indexed  
per second (average between successful checks), and one that gives the  
total number of documents. Hopefully, more will come, and also some  
event handlers and tutorials.

Any feedback will be appreciated!

Best regards,  
Radu
