To install Checkmk, you have to use our hook script in the library for that. This is necessary because we boot all systems with a clean operating system image via PXE, so any manually installed software would be lost after rebooting.
Instructions
1. Navigate to the menu item “MAINTENANCE” and then to “HOOK SCRIPTS” and click on “Library”:
2. Select “Checkmk” underneath the “Monitoring” column and fill in the requested fields:
3. (Optional) If you are using the containerized version of checkmk on the server, edit the hookscript including the ports on which requests will be received:
The ports that the container exposes for downloading the agent and for registration are different.
