Nagios - files created the last # days

Um z.B. mit Nagios die Aktualität eines Virenscanners zu überprüfen bietet es sich an zu verifizieren ob bestmmte Dateien, in diesem Fall die Signaturen für den Virenscanner, aktuell sind.

Eine Möglichkeit dies zu realisieren stellt das folgende Script dar. 
#!/bin/bash
# scans files that match the pattern in path for creation age in days
# and counts them. If there are no files that were created between
# today and $warning_age ago issue a warning.
# If there are no files that were created between today and $critical_age
# ago issue critial state.
#
# rs - 20160413

FIND=/usr/bin/find
WC=/usr/bin/wc
