NagiosCheckBeat is the Beat used for running Nagios checks.
Check out this blog post on how it works.
You can integrate with Watcher (How-To) or Nagios Core (How-To) for Alerting.
- For Elasticsearch 1.x compatibility, see the 0.5.x branch.
- NagiosCheckBeat 0.6.0 is compatible with Elasticsaerch 2.x through 5.x.
- NagiosCheckbeat 6.2.3 is compatible with Elastic Stack 6.x
- NagiosCheckBeat 7.6.0 is compatible with Elastic Stack 7.x
- As of NagiosCheckBeat 7.x, process forking must be explicitly allowed by disabling seccomp. Do note the security hazard here! Keep your config secure!
seccomp.enabled: false
Packages for your OS can be found in Releases
