Description

The plaintext module establishes a connection to a remote host to execute a check module there. The remote host must be configured appropriately before this module will work, see the documentation for the Remote Daemon (sr) for how to set up the remote host. Communication is performed using a simple, text-based protocol.

Examples

  1. To execute the disk check module using the plaintext transport module:
         transport remote {
           module plaintext {}
         }
    
         check disk {
           module disk {}
           via remote
         }
         
  2. To execute the mailq check module using the plaintext transport module:
         transport remote {
           module plaintext {}
         }
    
         check mailq {
           module mailq {
             warn   100
             prob   1000
           }
           via remote
         }
