Usage: ./add_to_check_mk.sh -s SITENAME -h HOSTNAME [-f FOLDERNAME] [-t 'tag1|tag2|tag3']

    -s    Specifies the omd 'site' to add the host to, eg: prod
    -h    Specifies the hostname to be added
    -f    Optional. Specifies the name of the check_mk folder the
          host is to be added to.
    -t    Optional. WATO tags to add to the host.
    -?    This message.

notes

  • This script assumes check_mk has been installed as part of OMD. If you've manually installed you'll likely want to change some of the paths and remove the -s requirement.
  • If you're copying tags from the wato web interface be warned: after every | character check_mk is inserting a unicode zero-width-space, aka \u200b. If these are not removed before you paste the tags into your script/command line check_mk will interpret them as part of the tag and will then fail to properly apply rules/folders/hostgroups/etc.
