What is a check ?
Checks or Plugins are standalone extensions to Shinken Enterprise that make it possible to monitor anything and everything
Plugins process command-line arguments, perform a specific check, and then return the results to Shinken Enterprise. They can be compiled binaries (written in C, C++, etc) or executable scripts (shell, Perl, PHP, etc).
Accessing Checks Configuration
Checks Configuration can be accessed by the Main Menu "Elements". When pointing cursor over Checks in the Main Menu, a sub menu appears, showing 2 categories : Select one of the sub categories to get into Configuration. Selecting Checks in the Main Menu, is the same as selecting Checks in the Sub Menu. |  |
