CMK RAW:
Ubuntu 22.04

Hey everyone, I am following the monitoring docker docs however I am stuck at creating the host configuration for each docker container.

My docker host is already set up in checkmk, I did install the agent plugin and the docker service has been discoverd.

However, I dont get the part where I have to manually add a docker container as a host, it seems I dont have a tmp/check_mk/piggyback directory on my docker host.

I dont have a tmp/checkmk directory at all

I know it is a silly problem but I can’t get out of it

Hi bamje,
did you su - $SITE on your monitoring instance beforehand?

Thank you Simon, that was it, I just forgot a fundamental aspect of checkmk …
