Status of PHP PDO_Firebird as of May 2011
Working both with Firebird SQL and PDO (but not yet at the same time) I am interested in the combination of both.
According to the documentation the extension is still in experimental status, but I was still curious about how far it has progressed. I decided to redo the experiments Lorenzo Alberton did in an article in 2006.
I performed these tests on PHP Version 5.3.6 with Firebird 2.5 on a Windows 7 machine.
Firebird nagios plugin written in #python
At work we use a lot of Firebird databases, and so far our system admins checked the availability of a Firebird Database by simply trying to connect via telnet to the port 3050 and see if they would get a response. With this kind of check you can’t really determine if the database is really up and running,
Therefore they asked me if I could write a plugin for nagios which would do a real check to ensure that the Databases are up and running, here is my result.
I chose to write the plugin in python, due it’s simplicity, and because I already wrote some script using the python-kinterbasdb extension
