We're using opsview for basic elasticsearch monitoring.

The elasticsearch.org 'health and performance monitoring' page lists two check scripts

```
check_elasticsearch - https://github.com/anchor/nagios-plugin-elasticsearch
opsview-elasticsearch - https://github.com/rbramley/Opsview-elasticsearch

```

(plus another, check-es, that checks for expected doc counts etc)

There are several other similar check scripts easily found via google etc.

I'm looking for help in deciding which of the above to use and if anyone  
has any other suggestions related to monitoring ES via nagios/opsview etc.

Tim.
