check_bioctl - checks status of a RAID array using bioctl

This check is for OpenBSD machines with bioctl(8) supported RAID cards.

The only real caveat with it is that bioctl needs rw permission to
/dev/bio. One way to allow for that is by adding an entry to
/etc/sudoers.

This is an example of a setup for NRPE. For checks on the machine running
Nagios, use the _nagios user in /etc/sudoers instead of _nrpe, and of course,
no /etc/nrpe.cfg.  check_bioctl runs bioctl once for each device, so
you will need a sudoers entry that matches each device you wish to check.

/etc/sudoers:
_nrpe ALL = NOPASSWD:/sbin/bioctl ami[01]

/etc/nrpe.cfg:
command[check_bioctl]=/usr/local/libexec/nagios/check_bioctl -d ami0 -d ami1

For more information on bioctl(8) see the OpenBSD man page.
