SHINKEN-DISCOVERY(8) Shinken commands SHINKEN-DISCOVERY(8)

NAME

shinken-discovery - Shinken discovery daemon

SYNOPSIS

shinken-discovery [-dr] [-c CONFIGFILE] [--debugfile DEBUGFILE]


DESCRIPTION

Shinken discovery command.
There are two discovery modules included:
•
Standard network discovery which uses the nmap tool
•
VMware discovery which uses the check_esx3.pl script and a vcenter installation.

It is best to do the whole discovery in one pass because one module can use data from the other.
