Hi CheckMK Forum,
In the past (currently Enterp. 2.4.p16) I used the check “Check HTTP Service (deprecated)” or “Integrate Nagios plug-ins” to monitor web services. That worked so far.
Now I’m in the process of converting the checks to the new check “Check HTTP web service”. I noticed that the new check only measures the response time, whereas the old checks had a lot more measured values in them? Can you also create these in the new check or are they not there in the new check?
Hi there,
Could you share how you have set up a rule so i/we can get some more detail on this ?
For now:
I am assuming that you have set/ticked response-time in the rule, so it will display it in the summary.
As i am not using that, but i am expecting a ‘response-code’ , and that is shown in a/ the summary on the host, but your information feels the same case , just a different metric.
I instead have ticked certificate validity, which is not shown in the summary.
When it is not shown the rule evaluated the status of the (my case) certificate as ‘OK’, but its not going to bloat the summary.
It will however trigger an alert as soon as the given parameter(s) crosses a WARN/CRIT threshold.
The choice to omit certain information in a/the summary when it is evaluated as ‘OK’ has confused me in the past as well, but i can assure you that all configured aspects in the rule are evaluated, and monitored.
What values do you mean? As @Glowsome said not all is shown inside the summary.
My new HTTP checks get these four performance data back.
What you cannot specify at the moment is the page size that is returned as a expected value i think.
