does anyone of you know about a simple way to get the execution time of a plugin that is called by the checkmk agent - or even of all plugins if the agent is calling more than one?
So far I couldn’t see such a functionality in any plugin code and I wonder if this was not requested up to now with some plugins taking longer to query than others - I think in several cases it might be useful to know and visualize the total execution time of the checkmk agent by splitting into agent and its called plugin(s).
Is there a way of configuration to add this information within the service graph for “s: Check_MK$” by standard? Or how do you deal with this question? - THX!
The only way to get these values is from the agent log file.
There you find in milliseconds the runtime of every plugin.
In a normal setup all the execution of the plugins on Windows should be set to asynchronous execution and with this setting should not have impact to the agent runtime by itself.
THX - so I guess you are talking about $MK_VARDIR for data location of the checkmk agent on the target system and as the default path for the agent log file?
Unfortunately, I could not find any log DIR nor log FILE there.
Some plugins seem to substitute that path - but also there I got no goal…
if [ ! “$MK_VARDIR” ]; then
export MK_VARDIR=$MK_CONFDIR
