Folks – I’ve seen this come up before but I don’t see a complete answer anywhere.
What is the ideal architecture going forward? Is it a stand-alone Check_MK installation, or OMD? I’ve noticed that the RPMs and setups install to OMD paths by default.
I had to search around a bit to figure out how to install the Check_MK agent on its own, and it was sufficiently buried within the tar file.
I have an old RedHat 5.5 host with Check_MK and Nagios installed independently. This works great and has tons of data history but is very old. I’d like to upgrade
to a newer RedHat version but it’s not clear to me what I should be doing with my monitoring – should I be moving to OMD? Can I take all of my existing configuration (main.mk, etc.) and move it into OMD somehow? Is there a migration path?
If you don’t want the bleeding edge version of check_mk, i would
say go with OMD.
The rpms make it super easy to install and upgrade check_mk.

Yes and even if; I'm working with OMD AND are installing RPMs from Check_MKs site to keep it fresh. Just download the RPM from their site, install ist locally (with yum I'd say) and do an "omd update" for the site(s)...that's it...

I had installed OMD Labs edition with prometheus. (with Icinga as core). I thought the metrics from check_mk+icinga would be available in prometheus, but it is not happening. Is there anything special I need to be doing ?
