To make this check work please install the {{mk_site_object_counts}} agent plugin and specify host tags or check commands within the {{site_object_counts.cfg}} configration file. The following options are available:
| {TAGS} | global host tags |
| {SERVICE_CHECK_COMMANDS} | global check commands |
| {SITES} | restriction to specified sites |
| {TAGS_$SITENAME} | site specific host tags |
| {SERVICE_CHECK_COMMANDS_$SITENAME} | site specific check commands |
The agent plugin is executed if and only if OMD is installed and there's a configuration file. Sites which provide an opened Livestatus socket {/omd/sites/$SITENAME/tmp/run/live} are taken into account.
Without the restrictive option {SITES} all sites on that server are considered which satisfy above conditions.
If more than one value is assigned they have to be separated by one space, eg.
- {TAGS=prod snmp}
- {SERVICE_CHECK_COMMANDS_sitename=kernel lnx_if}
H3:Example 1
site_object_counts.cfg
TAGS=snmp
SERVICE_CHECK_COMMANDS=if
With this configuration the agent plugin returns the amount of all SNMP hosts and the amount of all interface services of the type {if} of all sites.
H3:Example 2
site_object_counts.cfg
SITES=site_a site_b
TAGS=snmp
SERVICE_CHECK_COMMANDS=if
With this configuration the agent plugin returns the amount of all SNMP hosts and the amount of all interface services of the type {if} of the sites {site_a} and {site_b}.
H3:Example 3
site_object_counts.cfg
TAGS_site_a=snmp
SERVICE_CHECK_COMMANDS_site_a=if
TAGS_site_b=agent
SERVICE_CHECK_COMMANDS_site_b=lnx_if
With this configuration the agent plugin returns
- the amount of all SNMP hosts and the amount of all interface services of the type {if} of the site {site_a} and
- the amount of all agent-based hosts and the amount of all Linux interface services of the type {lnx_if} of the site {site_b}.

site_object_counts.cfg
TAGS=prod
SERVICE_CHECK_COMMANDS=omd_apache omd_status
TAGS_site_a=snmp
SERVICE_CHECK_COMMANDS_site_a=if
TAGS_site_b=agent
SERVICE_CHECK_COMMANDS_site_b=lnx_if
With this configuration the agent plugin returns
- the amount of all productive hosts and services of type {omd_apache} and {omd_status} of all sites.
- additionaly the amount of all SNMP hosts and the amount of all interface services of the type {if} of the site {site_a} and
- additionaly the amount of all agent-based hosts and the amount of all Linux interface services of the type {lnx_if} of the site {site_b}.

TAGS_site_a=snmp
SERVICE_CHECK_COMMANDS_site_a=if
TAGS_site_b=agent
SERVICE_CHECK_COMMANDS_site_b=lnx_if
With this configuration the agent plugin returns
- the amount of all productive hosts and services of type {omd_apache} and {omd_status} of the sites {site_a}, {site_b} and {site_c}.
- additionaly the amount of all SNMP hosts and the amount of all interface services of the type {if} of the site {site_a} and
