Hi Neeloj,

you can try the following command as site user:

cmk --checks=checkname

or

cmk --checks=checkname hostname

Hope it helps you

And the manual

@athomaidis

cmk --checks=checkname hostname

thank you so much it works like a charm, I use that with “runuser” command.

[athomaidis (anastasios)]

If you want more/detailed output information, you can use -v or -vv

e.g.

cmk -v --checks=checkname hostname

or

cmk -vv --checks=checkname

[neeloj (Neeloj A.)]

Yes I did that :-)) thank you again

I use that in python script, it you have an idea tell me :-))

I use now subprocess.Popen

[athomaidis (anastasios)]

I can’t help you. I’m a python beginner. Sorry

[neeloj (Neeloj A.)]

Ah okay :-)) anyway thanks :-))

[ways]

You can see how I do it in python here: reschedule_check in checkmk-commander.

[neeloj (Neeloj A.)]

Thank you @ways I’ll check it out

How do you find this out:
resched_checks=Reschedule&_resched_spread=0

?

[AlexanderS (Alexander)]

Maybe with the rule “Normal check interval for service checks”

[neeloj (Neeloj A.)]

Thanks for the info
I use cmk -v --checks=checkname hostname In python, but I’ll think about @ways way too

[ways]

How I found out how to do it?

In the webUI for checkmk you can use developer tools in Firefox or Chromium to see what URLs are called.

@ways

developer tools in Firefox or Chromium to see what URLs are called.

I use that but for me in version 1.5x RAW version it calls different url not like yours:

/ajax_reschedule.py?site=mysite&host=myhost&service=Check_MK+Discovery&wait_svc=Check_MK+Discovery&_ajaxid=1589544581

But why you can see other url than me, by the way it works for me

[ways]

• click on a service
• scroll to the bottom
• find the little icon with arrows pointing out, “url to this frame”, and click it
• click on hammer
• click “Reschedule active checks”

Now you will see the url I’m using.

I haven’t tried the ajax url. Perhaps it works as well.
