Matching Objects from i-doit with Hosts from Checkmk 2#

Before running push or pull, you may want to take a closer look at how your infrastructure looks in the two tools i-doit and Checkmk 2.

Checkmk

The fetch-objects and fetch-hosts commands give you detailed information about your documented objects in i-doit or your monitored hosts in Checkmk 2. But neither reconciles them with each other. This is done by the match command:

1
idoitcmk match

After comparing each object with each host, some detailed reports are generated:

  • Objects in i-doit that can be updated by hosts in Checkmk 2
  • Hosts in Checkmk 2 that are not available as objects in i-doit
  • Hosts in Checkmk 2 that can be updated by objects in i-doit
  • Objects in i-doit that are not available as hosts in Checkmk 2

None of your data will be changed.

If you increase the verbosity, this command gives you hints about what to do next:

1
idoitcmk match -v
