Check, if a host is in service

check_maintenance allows you to let Nagios do the critical check, if the hardware of a given host is still in service or not. check_maintenance will read the given file with maintenance data and checks for a line with the given hostname and service date. If it succeeds, the service date will be processed against the given warning and critical values. All data in the maintenance file behind the second '|' will be printed as normal output to Nagios, so you can use this to add addtional informations like the room or inventory number of the host.
