Create a check walktrough with director

[log1c]

@FiveAces

I added now a field smart_device and populated it in the service object.
It did not change the output.

You need to add the field to the command config and set it as the value of your -d argument.

Example:

object CheckCommand "haproxy_state" {
    import "plugin-check-command"
    command = [ PluginDir + "/check_haproxy.rb" ]
    timeout = 1m
    arguments += {
        "-P" = {
            required = true
            value = "$haproxy_password$"
        }
        "-U" = {
            required = true
            value = "$haproxy_user$"
        }
        "-c" = {
            required = false
            value = "$haproxy_critical$"
        }
        "-u" = {
            required = true
            value = "$haproxy_url$"
        }
        "-w" = {
            required = false
            value = "$haproxy_warning$"
        }
    }
}

Looks like this in the Director:

t the core: Why do I get a check result that has nothing to do with my check?

Because you are overriding the check command somewhere. Did you import multiple templates anywhere?

also please take a look at this guide for post formatting

Create topics and master Markdown formatting

Edit and write topics Discourse uses Markdown as markup language. If you are familiar with GitHub, you’re good to go. If not, please follow this guide. [48] While you type something into the editor, you’ll recognize many things: live preview as you type on the right side if someone else is replying, a short notice on top of the editor you can navigate to a different page, and still reply to the “old” topic sessions are stored, which means that a draft text can be started on your Macbook…

Code snippets with some indentations and some highlighting are much easier to read
