A new plugin is introduced with a functionality similar to fileinfo. It reports count, size and age of sets of files specified using a globbing pattern. However, this plugin is designed with large filesets in mind. It therefore provides different options to reduce the data reported to the Check_MK server and/or to avoid unnecessary stat calls on the client. For more information, please refer to the "--help" option of the plugin and the example configration file in agents/cfg_examples.
