Use case: I want to send the result of ansible job to checkmk.
I thought I might do this with a webhook. But this seems to be impossible. Legacy solutions such as sending snmptraps are not desired.
Do you see any other possiblities?
Hi Markus,
one possibilty could be to write a spool file at the end of the Ansible playbook that contains local check output, which checkmk then uses to create a Service.
E.g.
/var/lib/check_mk_agent/spool/ansible.txt
<<<local>>>
0 "Ansible-Playbook-ABC" - Run was successfull
This is described here:
Another Option could be pushing the data in a syslog compliant form into the Event Console.
The spool option fits perfectly my use case, as I do have agents on my systems.
