I want to be able to have checkmk alert our server room temp using the .xml or the full interface website. Please let me know if you have any examples of where to go. We just started with checkmk.
Thanks!
Hi @Joshua.Smith,
do you mean you want to read the current temperature from a temperature device that doesn’t supply its data via snmp (where checkmk supports several devices → see Katalog und Dokumentation der Checkplugins)
Depending on the format of the xml/html you can either
a) write a check script scraping the data from curl output, and implement it as a “nagios plugin”
b) possibly the regex in “Regular expression to expect in content” of the rule “Check HTTP Service” works as well. i.e. you expect a regex of “Temperature: [1-2][0-9]” (possibly other values depending on your thresholds, could be a quick fix for your request.
I suggest looking into the beginner’s guide for general direction of how checkmk does things
