Non-pingable health check for a host. Is it possible to not have to use ping?

Is it possible to change the check for host alive to not be a ping? I am porting in a config from my old Nagios and we have some hosts that have their host check as a TCP port check, and not a ping, and i want to do the same in CheckMK.

Yes it is possible. If you search for the rule “Host Check Command” you can define what you want to do for the host check.
