Zypper: (Security) Updates

Distribution	Official part of Checkmk
License	GPLv2
Supported Agents	Linux

This check checks for available updates via zypper and SLES and OPENSUSE distributions. You need to install the plug-in mk_zypper into the plugins directory of your agent.

The check gets critical if there are security updates available. It gets warning, if there are other updates available or if package locks exist (created by zypper addlock). This is configurable via the rule Zypper Updates.

Discovery

One service is created for each system where the {mk_zypper} plug-in produces a non-empty output.
