Description

MK Livestatus - a Nagios event broker module that allows quick, direct and comfortable access to your status data.

Livestatus is concepted and tuned to reduce disk, memory and cpu loads caused by live-data processing on the Nagios system. Just as NDO, Livestatus makes use of the Nagios Event Broker API and loads a binary module into the Nagios process. But other than NDO, Livestatus does not actively write out data e.g. to the disk. Instead, it opens a socket for external applications to connect to and fetch the current status information from Nagios.

In the other systems

The newest version among them is 1.2.8p25, as upstream numbers it.

Message after installing

Notes:

 * See the documentation at https://mathias-kettner.com/checkmk_livestatus.html

 * Requires Nagios (net-mgmt/nagios, or net-mgmt/nagios4) be built with event
   broker support enabled, or 'livestatus.o' will never be loaded. This is
   the default for net-mgmt/nagios4.

 * unixcat (for use with reading from the socket and/or inetd(8) support)
   moved from /usr/local/bin to /usr/local/lib/mk-livestatus
   in order to avoid a conflict with sysutils/ucspi-unix

 * livecheck was removed in 1.2.3.i5. Please adjust your "broker_module=..."
   directive in /usr/local/etc/nagios/nagios.cfg!
