[Check_mk (english)] Esxi hosts in maintenance mode

Hi

Has anyone been able to alter the check for esxi hosts in maintenance mode? I want the outcome of the check to be warn and not crit as placing a host in maintenance mode is a deliberate act

Hi Nadeem,

If you want to change the check outcome, you need to alter the check plugin “esx_vsphere_hostsystem”.

Copy this file from “~/share/check_mk/checks/” to “~/local/share/check_mk/checks/” and alter the section “Maintenance”.

Search the line “if target_state != current_state:” and change the next line “state = 2” to “state = 1”.

Keep in mind that this check is checking if the current state is the same as the defined target state. That means if you made

a rule that maintenance mode is ok then this check will stay OK if maintenance mode is on for such a host.

The error state is only outputted if the current state is not the target state.

Best regards

Andreas
