Bug#998452: ITP: check-mk-agent -- general purpose monitoring plugin for retrieving data



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : check-mk-agent
  Version         : 2.0.0p14.dfsg
  Upstream Author : tribe29 GmbH <feedback@checkmk.com>
* URL             : https://checkmk.com
* License         : GPL2+
  Programming Lang: shell, python
  Description     : general purpose monitoring plugin for retrieving data


Check_mk adopts a new a approach for collecting data from operating systems
and network components. It obsoletes NRPE, check_by_ssh, NSClient and
check_snmp. It has many benefits, the most important of which are:
  * Significant reduction of CPU usage on the monitoring host.
  * Automatic inventory of items to be checked on hosts.

Using this package for a long time and was packaging it just for me.
It would be nice to have it in debian, without configuring extra
repository. It would be nice to have check-mk-agent-team on salsa, where
we can maintain it. On MDC in Regensburg I hear that a lot of people
using it and I have found a sponsor.
Co-maintainers are always welcome. Maybe later it would be nice to
package more check-mk-agent plugins from check-mk exchange.

Best Regards,
Juri Grabowski
