Hi community out there,  
I am very new to icinga and monitoring things.  
Icinga2 Agent is running on the Proxmox server and see by default services in the Icinga Web 2 interface. services are like Host disk, Ping, SSH, Host -Users only.

I would like to see some more services, for this i found python script (check\_pve.py) and downloaded it.  
[https://exchange.icinga.com/nicolaiB/Check%20PVE](https://exchange.icinga.com/nicolaiB/Check%20PVE)

files downloaded:  
command.conf  
service.conf  
check\_pve.py

Before you ask a question, you can check [the troubleshooting documentation](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga-2/latest/doc/15-troubleshooting/) first, maybe you can find an answer here.

Where i can put this file check\_pve.py i found following locations:  
/usr/lib/nagios/Plugins  
/etc/icinga2/conf.d/commands.conf

object NotificationCommand “mail-host-notification” {  
command = [ConfigDir + “/scripts/mail-host-notification.sh”]

arguments += {  
“-4” = “$notification\_address$”  
“-6” = “$notification\_address6$”  
“-b” = “$notification\_author$”  
“-c” = “$notification\_comment$”  
“-d” = {  
required = true  
value = “$notification\_date$”

if i locate python script to here, what about mail-host-notification.sh? ConfigDir + “/scripts/mail-host-notification.sh” ]
