Check_mk.yml - documentation and modify

Hi

Running Checkmk Pro (formerly Enterprise) 2.4.0p25

I have found that check_mk.yml in windows

includes alot of default monitoring, like msexch that gives WMI errors in the windows event log.

I can read that I many not modify the check_mk.yml but how do I then disable a msexch section?
I cannot find the documentation about it.

We are using bakery, so would like to deploy it in config or that way.

The sections that are default:

sections:
- check_mk
- mrpe
- skype
- spool
- plugins
- local
- winperf
- uptime
- systemtime
- df
- mem
- services
- msexch
- dotnet_clrmemory
- wmi_webservices
- wmi_cpuload
- ps
- fileinfo
- logwatch
- openhardwaremonitor
- agent_plugins


If you go into the agent bakery rule ‘Disabled sections (Windows Agent)’ you should see the options there which sections to disable.
