Hello all,
Unfortunately, I could not find anything on the Internet, so I ask the question here.
I need to extend an already existing check / agent, the agent_allnet_ip_sensoric. I already found out that it is located under /opt/omd/sites/XXXX/var/check_mk/precompiled_checks/builtin, but in the complied version. The original is at checkmk/allnet_ip_sensoric at master · tribe29/checkmk · GitHub. But how do I now manage to adapt the GitHub version and then make it work on my system? I need to add another sensor type that does not yet exist in the check.
If you want to modify a file included in the system (special agent or check).
Then you have the same folder as the original file under ~/local/…
Example:
a classic check is situated inside ~/share/check_mk/checks/…
if you want to modify such a check, you copy the file to the folder
~/local/share/check_mk/checks/…
Inside the new location you can modify the check and it is then automatically used instead of the original one.
You will find the source code ~/share/check_mk/checks/allnet_in_sensoric. If you like to modify it, copy it to ~/local/share/check_mk/checks/ and make your changes here. The version under ~/local/share is automatically preferred over the original file under ~/share.
There is no need to compile the check yourselves. It is compiled automatically on each cmk -R, cmk -O, or on activation of changes in the web interface.
