Linux Memory Plugin for Nagios
Copyright (c) hugme (nagios@hugme.org)
Version: 1.2.0
Last Modified: 10-07-2014
License: This software can be used for free unless I meet you, then you owe me lunch.

Usage: check_linux_memory -w [warning %] -c [critical %]

Options:
 -w [0-99]		= Your warning %. 20 means 20% of your memory can remain before a warning alarm. Do not use the % sign.
 -c [0-99]		= Your critical %. 10 means 10% of your memory can remain before a critical alarm. Do not use the % sign.
 -d [K,M,G,T]	= divider K=kilobytes, M=megabytes, G=gigabytes, T=terabytes
 -f		= Included for backwards compatability to older versions
 -n		= Don't Include cached memory as free memory when calculating your percentage free
 -K		= Don't check the OutOfMemory Kill counter
 -k [0-9999]	= Threshold for OOMKill alert (default: 0)
