Docker: Container Status

Distribution	Official part of Checkmk
License	GPLv2
Supported Agents	Linux

Monitors the status of docker containers. A status of "running" is treated as OK, any other status is treated as CRIT.

To make this check work the agent plugin {mk_docker.py} has to be installed. If you are using agent bakery rules, you must enable "Piggybacked docker containers". If you are configuring the plugin via the configuration file, make sure you do not skip the section "docker_containers_client" (the default setting is fine).

Discovery

One service is created for each container that is running or has the restart policy set to 'always'.
